Here are some tips to remember when operating the display in conjunction with a SprayStar

control

system. Refer to the quick reference sheet and other sections of the operators manual for specific setup
and operation instructions.

Master Switch Input

After setting up a configuration in the display make sure to change the master switch input setting from
standard to optional. This will tell the display to read the foot pedal for the master switch input status.

Master Switch Usage

When manually shutting off all boom sections in the field, use the foot pedal switch. Leave the OEM
master switch on the hydro handle ON during field use. Using the hydro handle switch may lead to
improper field coverage, poor AutoSwath performance, and inaccurate spray records. Only use the John
Deere master switch when completely shutting down the sprayer to transport or service the machine.

Target Rate

The display must have a non-zero target rate entered in the display before the boom valves will open for
product application. Ensure that the target rate entered into the display and SprayStar match to avoid
any unwarranted alarms or warnings on the display.

Data Collection

The display will create a coverage map of all product application while logging actual application rate
from the product control system flow meter.

AutoSwath Boom Section Control

The display will automatically control the boom section on/off status based upon previously applied area,
field boundary, and internal boundaries.

SprayStar Application Rate

The display will not control the rate based upon the target rate value entered into the system.

Application rate is controlled exclusively by the SprayStar display.

SprayStar Rinse Cycle

When using the rinse cycle feature on the SprayStar, the display must have the boom sections on to
allow the SprayStar to properly run the rinse routine. To ensure that boom sections are on:

1. Enter a target rate into the display.

2. Turn the foot pedal master switch on.

3. Turn all boom switches on.

4. Boom indicators on the Run screen must be blue showing that boom valves are on.
