POPULATION
This is the amount of seeds, in thousands of seeds per acre (hectare),
shown in a given row, based upon the most recent sampling of the seeding
rate for that row. The Population function is selected automatically on
power up or by pressing the OPERATE 1 switch until the POPULATION
message appears on the display. Only the seed rows that have their row
status set to ON will display in the Population function. If the Blockage
Mode is set to All Rows Blockage, the upper numeric display will show a
series of five (5) dashes and no population values will be available. The
Population display has several different modes based upon the Setup
configuration and the scan mode that is selected. A short description of
each mode is described below.
POPULATION SCAN
This mode displays the population of each valid row for two (2) seconds,
then advances to the next row. After the last row population displays, the
average seeding population (for all valid population rows) displays,
identified by the AVG message. Population Scan mode is selected
automatically upon powerup or by pressing the MIN AVG MAX SCAN
switch until the SCAN message displays while in Population function.
(
