Example: Tgt file in pints/ac of Treflan, Land Manager
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 Land Manager
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.
Actual Rate Scale Factor: This setting is required to prevent
data loss in the log file (YLD file) when the units/sec of
application get above 3. Use the chart below for setting. The
rate actually applied and rate displayed on PF is unaffected by
this setting. When the log file is mapped in Ag Leader's SMS
mapping program, the mapped actual rate will be 1/10
th
of the
real rate if the Actual Rate Scale Factor is 0.100. If it is
0.010, the mapped actual rate will be 1/100
th
the real rate.
The mapped actual rate can be scaled back up in SMS. The
summary actual rate in SMS is unaffected by this setting.
