WHEEL CIRCUMFERENCE

Here the wheel circumference of the combine harvester wheel at which the speed
transmitter is mounted is to be encoded. If several magnets are mounted on the
wheel; the wheel circumference must be divided by the number of magnets before
encodement.

HOW TO MEASURE THE WHEEL CIRCUMFERENCE:

1. Make a mark on the ground and on the tyre.
2. Make 10 revolutions with the wheel.
3. Mark out on the field again.
4. Measure the distance between the two marks and divide the result by 10. The

result is the effective wheel circumference. (Wheel circumference must be
encoded in cm. i.e. 2,53 is encoded as 253).

5. The measured effective wheel circumference is to be divided by the number of

magnets.
NOTE: When counting the wheel revolutions make sure this is done for the

wheel on which the magnets are mounted.

WORKING WIDTH

Here the effective working width of the cutter bar in centimetres is to be encoded
(width minus over-laps).

LOSS WARNING

Here you can choose to have a warning for an
unacceptably large grain loss. If the warning is ON it
will be activated at 75% reading. The warning is given
in the form of a flashing reading and an acoustic
alarm. It is possible to encode a delay of 0 - 10
seconds for the acoustic alarm so that a brief exceed
of the warning limit will cause no warning.
