NOTE: The pressure sensor

listed as a MuxBus sensor

is available but a different

sensor than the Packing

is connected to the hydraulic

drive control module and is

communicated on the CAN

3. Restore Settings to Defaults: This is used to return all settings to factory
defaults.

5. Meter Calibration: This is used to perform stationary meter calibration
tests and enter accurate meter calibration information.

4. Ground Speed Calibration: This is used to perform a field calibration for 
accurate ground speed input. The accuracy of this calibration affects application
rates, acre accumulation, and ground speed.

6. Clear Field Acres: Used to clear the field acre register.

NOTE: The total field acres 

cannot be cleared from the

Menu Settings screen. To

clear the Total Acres, a USB

drive with a program to clear

the acres must be used.

10. Rate Controller Meter Setup: This menu choice displays the application
rate per meter revolution determined by the individual meter calibrations and
allows you to enter different values directly if desired. This screen is where the
pulses per revolution of the meter rotation sensor can be entered if a value
different than the factory configuration is needed and the increment rate for 
on the go application rate changes is entered for each meter. This screen is also
where the low meter RPM alarm point is set

11. Seeder Stationary Mode: This menu choice allows you to enter a simu-
lated ground speed so the implement can be operated standing still to perform
operational checks and trouble shoot problems

12. Remove all sensors: This menu choice allows you to quickly unlearn all
MuxBus sensors installed on the system. This is a necessary step if it becomes
necessary to relearn the MuxBus system on a monitor that sensors installed.

2. Global Settings: Use this menu selection to set the units of measure, lan-
guage, implement width, the volume of the alarm, the backlight and contrast of
the screen, and the master switch mode

7, 8, 9. These menu items are for use with Loup Electronics blockage
monitoring and do not currently apply to the Seed Hawk monitor.

1. MuxBus Sensor Setup:
This is used to install and remove sensors that operate on the MuxBus network.
These include the ground speed sensor, the Fan sensors, the Bin Level sensors,
pressure and flow sensors.
