General
Description The PFadvantage Cotton Yield Monitor is a universal monitor/controller for
crop production that is GPS compatible. In the cotton machine it functions
as a yield monitor and accurately measures and records pounds per acre,
weight of current load and volume in bales.
The PFadvantage Cotton Yield Monitor has its own internal memory for
recording field and load data. GPS data, however, is not recorded in the
internal memory, but must be logged to a memory card.
The PFadvantage Cotton Yield Monitor must be setup and calibrated to
record accurate information.
Fields and Loads All the information recorded by the PFadvantage Cotton Yield Monitor
must be recorded in a field and load. The operator must manually select or
change the field and load on the PFadvantage Cotton Yield Monitor during
field operation. A load is used to subdivide a field into smaller sections.
The monitor load is not associated with the cotton machine basket, wagon,
or truck load. It is recommended to use different loads for different hybrids
or varieties or field conditions (like a wet hole).
Keypad The monitor has "soft" keys which do not have labels on the keys to identify
the function of the key. The labels for the keys will appear on the display
screen next to the key. However, there are four major groups of the keys:
arrow keys, display selection keys, menu key, menu selection keys.
