HIGH ALARM DELAY
NOTE: Population is updated every 5
seconds. Setting the Alarm
Delay for under 5 second
intervals does not provide any
delay at all.
The High Alarm Delay establishes the delay between the detection of a
High Population Alarm condition and the resulting alarm display. The value
is entered in seconds. If the value is set to 10, a row must be in a High
Population Alarm condition continuously for 10 seconds before the alarm
will be issued.
LOW ALARM DELAY
The Low Alarm Delay establishes the delay between the detection of a Low
Population Alarm condition and the resulting alarm display. The value is
entered in seconds. If the value is set to 10, a row must be in a Low
Population Alarm condition continuously for 10 seconds before the alarm
will be issued.
POPULATION ADJUST
The Population Adjustment percentage scales the displayed population
value to allow for inaccuracies with seed sensors in certain applications.
This is a multiplier of the monitored population value. For true calculated
results, the value should be set to 100.0%. If the monitored value is reading
low, the value can be increased above 100.0% to achieve the desired
population display. The displayed value is calculated by the monitored
value x population scalar.
POPULATION FILTER
The Population Filter value is used to stabilize the monitored population
display. For a true population value, this number should be set to 0.0%. 0.0
is no filtering at all. 99 is the highest level of filtering available. Set the filter
to meet the appropriate level of filtering for your specific use.
ROW FAIL RATE
The Row Fail Rate value sets the threshold for Row Failure alarms. The
value is entered in seeds per second. Both values are adjustable, allowing
for numerous combinations. The default value is 2/1, which indicates a row
failure threshold of 2 seeds in 1 second.
