SYSTEM OPERATION / 9

TURN ON/OFF CHANNEL

The Turn On/Off Channel buttons turn the active channel ON and OFF,
respectively. Channels that are set to OFF will not operate when the master
switch is set to the ON position. Turning a channel OFF is not the same as
disabling a channel in Channel Setup mode. The active channel/material is
displayed in the button text. If the key text is OFF, this is the action that will
be performed when the key is pressed.

NEXT SCREEN

The Next Screen button displays the next configured work screen. The
number to the left of the graphic identifies the current screen. The number
on the right identifies the next screen to display. The Next Screen button
only displays if multiple screens are configured.

NONOPERATE MODE BUTTONS

The following buttons appear when the Master Switch is OFF and are
available when the system is not operating.

NEXT PAGE

The Next Page button displays additional buttons used to interact with the
IntelliAg system in a nonoperating mode.

PLANTER FILL DISK

The Planter Fill Disk button fills the seed meters with seed to allow instant
seed flow when the channel is turned on. The seed meters will rotate on
ALL ACTIVE planter control channels one revolution and then stop.
Performing a fill disk is recommended at every system startup on planters
or a variety/seed-type change.

DIAGNOSTICS

The Diagnostics button accesses the Diagnostics screen. Various system
operating parameters are displayed on this screen. There is no
user-entered data on this screen.

ALARM LOG

The Alarm Log button accesses the Alarm log screen. An account of the
previous alarms issued is stored here. There is no user-entered data on this
screen. Not all alarms are recorded in the alarm log.

overview of system configurations for enabled channels. Specific setup
screens can be accessed (Level 2 and 3 Users only) by pressing inside the
