• Response Threshold
Determines where the control channel switches between
using Actuator Response 1 and Actuator Response 2
speed settings. Leaving all other actuator control
settings at the default value and making a small
adjustment to this setting is usually all that is required to
fine-tune system performance. The default setting is 4.

- Decreasing this value will have the overall effect of
speeding up actuator response.

- Increasing this value will have the overall effect of
slowing actuator response.

• Allowable Error
Determines the percent of error that is allowed prior to

the product control system making any flow rate changes. 2% - 3% is the normal dead band setting range.

- Too low of a setting value can cause the product control system to continually hunt for the target

application rate.

- Too high of a setting will cause excessive product application error.

• Shaft Speed Cal
Calibration number representing the pulses that equal one revolution of the rate control metering system.

• Max Conveyor Speed
Setting determines the maximum RPM of the conveyor that controls product distribution to the application
point.

• Actuator/Clutch Configuration
Selecting one of the three available actuator/clutch settings: [Single Bin Actuator], [Multiple Bin Actuator,
Main Only], [Multiple Bin Actuator, Main + Channel] from the Control Valve Configuration drop-down menu
(above) determines specific behavior of the actuators/clutches on zero rate.
