KPM III Monitor Operation
WARNINGS AND ALARMS
STEP 1 Seed Rate Alarm - A seed rate alarm is activated
whenever row average seed population drops below
threshold set for that row.
Corresponding row on bargraph starts flashing and
monitor emits a series of beeps that persist until
alarm is cleared or ACK button is pressed. ‘‘Seed
Rate Alarm’’ appears in upper left corner of screen.
Bargraph for row drops down based on threshold
set for alarm.
ExAMPLE: If threshold is 70%, lower two bargraph segments
are shown. If threshold is 50% or 10%, lowest bargraph
segment is shown.
Status message associated with an alarm contains
more information about the alarm. To view ‘‘Status
Message’’ for a seed rate alarm, press F1 key next
to Status.
If sensor detects no seed flow it displays which
row is not functioning. Alarm may be caused by
a mechanical problem reducing seed flow or an
electrical problem causing an incorrect seed count.
NOTE: Only way to remove an alarm is to find problem and
correct it. Alarms are not reported for rows with seed rate
alarm thresholds disabled.
NOTE: Percentage shown in alarm message is percentage at
time alarm occurred.
Row can be removed by pressing F2 key next to
Remove. A box appears asking for confirmation to
remove row. “OK” box is highlighted in box.
Press knob or Enter key to confirm removal. Sensor
Setup screen displays “none” next to the row that
was removed. Press F6 key next to “Done”. The
setup mode screen will appear.
