26 / STARTUP
Definitions and considerations when entering values for each constant are
as follows:
NOTE: Use ( Figure 16 ) Setup Mode
Parameters as reference for the
following items numbered 1-21.
1. SEED FLOW ALARM ADJUSTMENT
The first parameter displayed after entering the Setup Mode is Seed Flow
Alarm Adjustment identified as “SF” on the top of the display. The Seed
Flow Alarm Adjustment establishes how many seeds per time interval must
flow past the sensor before the alarm is activated identifying a row failure.
The default value is 00 which requires a minimum seed flow of at least 2
seeds per second before row failure alarm activates. The maximum value
allowed is at least 1 seed every 10 seconds. (
Figure 17 ) indicates a
minimum of 1 seed every 4 seconds before row failure alarm will sound.
Below Seed Flow Alarm Values table lists the values and the relative time
intervals. Any number higher than 10 will default to the maximum value of
10.
