MATERIAL SETUP - MONITOR ONLY
The Monitor Only selection is typically used for ground drive applications to
monitor population with high and low alarms. All seeding control channels
MUST be disabled in this configuration and/or no rows assigned to those
seeding channels.
IMPORTANT: A material name must be selected at the Row Monitor
Setup screen to activate high and low population
alarms.

Select Monitor Only as the Channel Type.
TARGET POPULATION
Target population is defined in 1000s of seeds per acre or hectare.
HIGH AND LOW POPULATION ALARMS
The High Population and Low Population values determine when an alarm
and row indicator displays to warn of a population problem. The values are
% based. The high population and low population values are independent
of each other and do not have to be the same percentage value.
ROW WIDTH
Row Width is used for seed rate data and is the distance in inches
(centimeters) between rows with a resolution of 0.1. This value updates
automatically with changes in the On/Off Pattern Setting option if the Auto
Update Width option is set to Enabled.
