TARGET RATE
Target Rate establishes the desired rate of application in KS (thousand)
seeds per acre or (KS/Ha).
MAX RATE
Maximum Rate establishes the maximum application rate in KS (thousand)
seeds per acre or (KS/Ha) that the control will allow. Target Rate cannot be
incremented to a value greater than this established Max Rate.
MIN RATE
Minimum Rate establishes the minimum application rate in KS (thousand)
seeds per acre or (KS/Ha) that the control will allow. Target Rate cannot be
decremented to a value lower than this established Min Rate.
INC/DEC %
The Increment/Decrement percent rate establishes the percentage of
change of the entered target rate that is applied each time the Material
Increment/Decrement button is pressed on the Main Work Screen.
IMPORTANT: The Maximum or Minimum Rates may not be reached if
the % increase or decrease, based off the Target Rate,
exceeds the maximum or minimum rate limits set.
EXAMPLE: Maximum Rate is set for 101. Target Rate is set for 100. If the
% increase is set at 2%, the maximum rate of 101 will not be met because
the % increase of 2% would exceed the 101 maximum rate limit.
