Seed Monitor Console Quick-Start
The PM400 factory defaults need to be changed to
metric mode, the row configuration of your YP625PD
planter, and the speed sensing used on these planters.
The pages 109 through 110 describe setting:
• metric data mode,
• planter row count,
• planter (swath-averaged) row spacing, and;
• initial speed calibration.
The monitor must be connected to +12Vdc power to
enter these settings (the monitor does not need to be
connected to the implement harness).
See the DICKEY-john ® 11001-1372 manual for setting
limits and alarms.
