You can change the alarm threshold for each
individual row unit, or for an individual section, or
the whole planter. To change the threshold of an
alarm, highlight the row unit, then press either a
given percentage number (10%, 50%, 70%, or use
the numeric keypad to create your own value). The
alarm will then sound only when the population
drops below that numeric threshold value.
If you wish to turn the threshold of the alarm to
zero, press the Disable button.
Note: The default alarm setting is at 50%.
