Low Bin Levels (set by physical position of Lo/Hi Sensors)
Bin Level Alarms
Bin level alarms use the bargraphs and so are an exception to the above. There is still a Line 1
message and beeping, but instead of a triangular indicator the bar itself indicates the alarm.
The lower portion of the bar remains solid, while the upper portion will flash. When a new alarm
condition arises, the beeper will sound, the appropriate triangular indicator will flash, and Line 1
will indicate the fault condition. Bin alarms are independent of shaft alarms and will operate
even if no shaft sensor is present.
Shaft Alarms
If the console is turned on prior to moving or a headland turn is initiated (ground speed
drops below 2mph), the metering shaft alarm is disabled until the speed increases
above 2 mph. When the ground speed is greater then 2 mph, there is an 8-10 second
delay before a shaft alarm will sound. This is to prevent any nuisance alarms.
Low Fan Alarms
Low fan speed alarms are not acknowledgeable while the implement is “in motion,” but the low
fan alarm auto-acknowledges itself when the implement goes out of motion.
The table below lists what will appear on the display for the above types of alarms.
