the Agrodata system, please see the Operator’s Manual.
General
AgrodatacanbefittedonValmettractorsasanoptionalac-
cessory. Agrodata is meant to be used in agricultural and con-
tract work for measuring tractor and implement functions and
work performance.
Agrodata can monitor:
--- T i m e ( h , m i n )
--- Rotation speed (RPM)
--- Area (trip and total, ha)
--- Distance (current meters)
--- S p e e d ( k m / h )
--- F l o w r a t e ( l / h a , l )
--- Numbers of items (piece counter)
The different keys are pressed to call up a display of a particu-
lar function (see Operator’s Manual)
Before the Agrodata unit can be used the following three va-
lues must be input:
--- the circumference of the wheel (cm) on which the magnetic
sensor is mounted (LH rear wheel of tractor) divided by the
number of magnets used.
---theeffectiveworkingwidth(cm)oftheimplement
--- the function code (9999 except when measuring flow rate
and total consumption)
Important! Before measuring flow rate and total consump-
tion, the Agrodata unit and flow meter must be calibrated in
order to obtain the correct function code.
The data listed above is retained in the Agrodata unit’s mem-
ory even if the battery cables are disconnected from the bat-
tery terminals.
