APPLICATION SETUP MODE

The Application Setup Mode contains the programming steps that are most
frequently changed (target application rate, and nozzles used). Spraying Systems
Co. has added this separate setup mode to speed the programming process
when minor changes are made in the spraying operation (i.e. changing fields,
switching nozzles, changing crops, etc.). The operator can avoid toggling through
all of the programming steps unnecessarily.

To enter the Application Setup Mode, depress the key twice. Depressing the
key once inadvertently will cause the display to flash “

” in the upper left and

USEr

” at the lower right of the display for three seconds before the 844 will return

to normal operating mode. The “ ”/ “

USEr

” indicates that the console is about to

enter the Application Setup Mode. Depressing the key a second time puts
the Control Console into the Application Setup Mode.

While in the Target Application Rate step, the application rate, pressure, speed,
and flow rate in US GPM (l/min) {Imperial GPM}, will be displayed. The
application rate units (GPA, G/1000 ft

2

or l/ha) will be flashing indicating that the

corresponding value can be adjusted or programmed.

Your target application rate should be entered in this step. Depress the or
keys to adjust the value. Depressing the and keys simultaneously will
clear the value to zero. When the desired application rate has been entered,
depress the key to accept the value and advance to the next step.

NOTE: If you are using NH

units, only the Target Application Rate will

appear in this step.

Nozzle Selection

Default = Red or 0.4 US GPM (1.29 l/min) {0.33 Imperial GPM}

While in the nozzle selection step, the display will remain the same as in the
Target Application Rate step except the symbol will be flashing at the bottom
of the display just above a color coded strip.
