Manual No. 016-3001-003 97
Using the Seed Hawk® Viper Pro System
The following table discusses the alarms and the conditions that will set off an alarm for products 4 or 5.
Creating Application Reports
When a field operation is completed, the operator may have the Viper Pro create a job report with the coverage
map and application or coverage data collected within the open job. The job report may then be transferred to
a home or office computer for viewing and archiving or printed as a visual report for a customer.
Information such as field, product(s) and weather information contained in the application report may be
entered during the job on the Viper Pro or on a home or office PC. The Viper Pro creates reports in both
shapefile and bitmap (.bmp) formats. The shapefile report will require a shapefile editing program to enter
report information while the bitmap report may be edited using a simple image editing tool such as Microsoft
®
Paint.
Refer to the following sections to enter report information in an job file before creating the job report. Report
information must be entered while the job is open or in progress and may be entered at any time while the job
is open. If a job is closed prior to entering report information, the job file must be re-opened to edit or complete
report information.
Note:
To re-open a job file and add report information, be sure to select the Add to Job option when
opening the job file.
