description

input

Specifies which sensor input cable the sensor is connected to on the DCM Product

harness. Sensor inputs A-D are digital (flowmeter and slot sensors) and Sensors E-F

are analog (typically pressure).

Sensor Name

used to label a particular sensor. this information is not stored in the Channel and is

used for messaging to the user only.

Calibration Number

Calibration number of the sensor. this is typically found on the sensor and the units

are displayed in the help text on the console. For Nh3 applications, refer to aPPeN-

diX C - Nh3 aPPLiCatioN.

Cal# Basis

table of preset calibration numbers. used to rapidly change calibration number nozzle

constants on pressure based liquid machines, or for saving multiple calibration num-

bers for different injection Pump tubes, or for creating a table of calibration numbers

for use on a spreader with an adjustable gate height. Refer to aPPeNdiX B - CReat-

iNg CaLiBRatioN taBLe.

Nozzle Constant

used for applications where a pressure sensor is being used as the primary sensor.

enter the gal/acre rating of nozzles being used at 10mph and 30psi (10 km/h - 2 bar

for metric applications) regardless of the actual speed and pressure at which the

machine will be operated.

alarm units

units used for minimum and maximum alarm.

min alarm

minimum alarm limit.

max alarm

maximum alarm limit.

alarm delay

duration an alarm condition exists before triggering an alarm.

Sensor output

Output signal type of the sensor 0-5v or 4-20 mA - refer to Sensor Specifications

NOTE: Secondary sensors are only used on machines that have a second sen-

sor that may be used for feedback and control of the product (e.g., a
spreader with two feed chains with a sensor on each chain). If you are
unsure about the use of the Secondary Sensor, please contact your local
TeeJet Technologies supplier for direction.

Secondary Sensor types are based on the application and Primary Sensor types
that were selected. each Secondary Sensor type has a Settings softkey that
launches the Secondary Sensor Settings page. the parameters depend on the
type of Primary Sensor selected. each Channel has six input sensors labeled a
through F. Sensor inputs a-d are digital (frequency) and sensor inputs e and F are
analog. the sensor input cables on the dCm Product harness are labeled a-F. the
