5 Setup
There are two methods to setup the UC5 system. The recommended way is to use the
Automatic Setup as shown in Section 5.1. The alternative method is to use Manual Setup,
which is intended for expert users and troubleshooting.
5.1 Automatic System Setup
Unfold the sprayer in a location that is relatively level and where the sensors are over bare soil
or gravel. Do not conduct the system setup or retune procedures over standing crop or
weeds/grass. Also avoid concrete or asphalt surfaces.
Ensure the boom roll suspension system is functioning properly and smoothly. Friction on
wear surfaces can be relieved using lubricants (grease, etc) or adjustment. Properly tuned
suspension systems will optimize UC4.5 performance.
 For best results, the hydraulic system should be under a normal load and at a normal
working temperature.
 Start the solution pump and run the sprayer’s engine at a normal working RPM for the
entire setup.
 Cycle all boom sections up and down manually for five minutes to warm the oil. For pull-
type sprayers, ensure any hydraulic flow controls are adjusted for normal field operation.
 Changing the hydraulic flow controls after or during the system setup will affect the
UC4.5 performance.
CAUTION
 All boom sections will move during the automatic install.
 People and equipment must be clear of sprayer boom.
 Ensure the booms have sufficient range to lift fully and are clear of any power
lines.
If this is the first setup for the panel, the process will begin automatically. If the panel was
previously set up, select "Install?" from the setup menu to initiate the Automatic System Setup.
Select the Sprayer Type:
 Use the buttons to toggle through a list of available sprayer types.
