854 Sprayer Control

Speed.Sensor.Calibration

NOTE: During Speed Sensor Calibration, the 854

automatically senses whether a Wheel

Speed or Radar Speed Sensor is being

used.

Proximity/Magnetic Pulses

The speed sensor must be calibrated to provide the

proper speed and area readings. The value for this

step is the number of pulses generated by the speed

sensor in 300 feet (100 meters).

Automatic Calibration

NOTES: When the Automatic Calibration Mode is

activated, “CAL” is displayed on the lower

right of the display.

It is best to perform the automatic speed

calibration process at least twice and use the

average of the speed calibration numbers.

The auto speed calibration process should

take place with the sprayer tank 1/2 full.

• Mark off a distance of exactly 300 feet (100

meters).

• Press and hold the PLUS and MINUS

keys simultaneously for 3 seconds to activate

the auto calibration mode.

• Start driving toward the start point of the 300

feet (100 meter) course.

• As the starting point is crossed, press the PLUS

keys once to begin the calibration process.

• The 854 will count the pulses generated while

the course is driven.

• As the ending point is crossed, press the PLUS

key once. The number displayed on the

screen is the speed calibration number.

• If the console determines that a radar speed

sensor is connected, it will display “rAd” on the

lower left part of the display.

Once the calibration number has been determined, it

must be entered into the console.

• Press the PROGRAM and PLUS keys

simultaneously to put the console into Radar

Mode. When the control console is in Radar

Mode, it will display “rAd” in the lower part of

the console display.

• Use the PLUS or MINUS keys to adjust

the value.

• Pressing the AUTO/MAN key will reset the

speed calibration to the default value.

• Once the correct vale has been entered, press

the PROGRAM key to validate the value and

advance to the next step.
