Sensitivity:
The sensitivity can be adjusted from 1 to 10, with 5 being the default setting. A lower number
will reduce the system sensitivity. Higher settings will speed up the response and also create a
greater demand on the hydraulics.
Mode:
The Mode button allows the system to be changed between Soil Mode, Crop Mode and Hybrid
Mode. Soil Mode allows the sensors to read a height from the spray nozzles to the ground;
whereas Crop Mode will read the height from the spray nozzles to the top of the crop canopy.
Hybrid Mode is an improved Crop Mode and is recommended in place of Crop Mode. For
more information on Crop, Soil and Hybrid Mode refer to Section 7.4.
Target Height:
The target height is the height you would like the boom to be set at when spraying. When
operating in Soil Mode, the target height is measured from the spray nozzles to the soil. In
Crop Mode the target height is measured from the crop canopy to the spray nozzles. In
Hybrid Mode the target height is a combination of measurements to provide a more stable
estimate of the distance from the crop canopy to the sprayer nozzles.
Tips:
Some sprayers have the ability to fold in the boom tips and spray with only the inner sections of
the boom. If your sprayer has this ability and is equipped with a five sensor system (Severe
Terrain Kit; refer to Section 13.1), the check box should be unchecked when spraying with
the tips folded in (Tips Off).
When in Tips Off the two outer sensors on the wings will be disabled and only the inner wing
sensors will be used to control the height.
The check box is defaulted to be checked (Tips On) and will return to be checked anytime the
power is cycled. When spraying with the full boom, the check box should be checked (Tips
On) to allow the outer sensors to operate again.
Main Lift Reaction:
The main lift reaction time affects how long the main lift waits between adjustments. The main
lift reaction time can be adjusted from 0 to 5. A setting of 1 is slow and a setting of 5 is the
