MONITORING PLANTING

OPERATE SCREEN SETUP

The Operate (main) screen provides many tools for monitoring planting.
This screen can be immediately accessed from any other screen or
sub-menu by pressing the Operate key.

The Operate screen is divided into the upper parameter window and the
lower parameter window. The operator can customize the layout and
content of both windows, but the size of the individual windows is fixed.
(refer to Figure 23).
