3.2 Height Sensors

 Height sensors use an ultrasonic signal to measure distance to the ground or crop canopy.
 Normally there are three height sensors used. A sensor is mounted to the outer part of

each boom tip, and another sensor is mounted to the center section.

3.3 Roll Sensors

 Roll sensors are important for measuring boom and sprayer roll dynamics.
 Two roll sensors are normally used for a UC5 Spray Height Control system.
 The mounting position of the roll sensors vary from sprayer to sprayer depending on

boom geometry and suspension.

3.4 Modules

 Normally there are three modules included: a control module, an input module, and a

valve module.

 Module status is indicated by a LED. Shortly after power-up, the module should present a

solid green light, indicating the module is functioning and ready.
