About Row Count and Spacing
The YP1630F has a 32-row sensor harness.
Sensors for odd numbered rows (1…31) are connected
at each of the 16 dry fertilizer row hoses, and are for
blockage detection only.
Sensors for even numbered rows (2…32) are connected
at each of the 16 seed tubes, and are typically configured
for population (counting seeds), but may alternatively be
configured for blockage.
Row count is 32, and spacing is 35 cm or 15 inches. With
the odd row positions set to blockage, the monitor
correctly reports population only for the sensors
monitoring seed.
