PF3000 Mid-Tech Controller
Ag Leader Technology Application Rate Mode
April 2002 2-51
Units: Set to Units/Acre of application. Set to GALLONS
if applying liquid. Set to POUNDS if applying granular
product.
Ground Speed Sensor: Set primary speed sensor to
SERIAL. The monitor will get ground speed from the
serial cable connection to the Mid-Tech. Leave the
secondary speed sensor set to WHEEL and do not change
the Speed Sensor Pulses/100 ft. Also do not perform a
distance calibration using wheel selection. No calibration
is needed when primary speed is set to SERIAL.
Note: This setting affects all configurations.
App Distance From GPS: Set to distance between where
product exits applicator and position of GPS antenna on
vehicle. Example: If spray boom is 20 feet behind GPS
antenna set to 20 feet back. Press DOWN ARROW key to
set feet back, UP ARROW key to set feet forward.
Full Swath: Ignore setting. Swath automatically comes
from serial port of Mid-Tech. The swath on the PF
automatically changes as boom sections are turned ON or
OFF.
Tgt Units: Contrler Units: This only pertains to using a
.tgt prescription file. Normally set to 1:1.0000. This ratio
is used to convert the units in a target file (.tgt) to the units
of application.
Example: Tgt file in pints/ac of Treflan, Mid-Tech
applies based on gallons/ac. If tank mix is 1 pint
of Treflan / 10 gallon water, then set to 1:10.0000.
The PF will read the pints/acre rate out of the .tgt
file, multiply it by ten to convert it to gallons/ac
and send that rate to the Mid-Tech console as the
rate to be applied.
Target Rate Increment: Determines increment value by
which you can change the manual target rate with each
press of Up or Down arrow keys. Choices are 0.1, 1.0,
10.0, 100.0, 500.0, 1000.0, 5000.0 or 10000.0.
