6.2 Alarm levels

Alarm settings

Set the level at which alarms are to be activated. Change by pressing the field to be changed and set a new alarm level in the pop-up window.

Alarm delay indicates the time between an error signal from the sensor and the visual/audible alarm on the home screen. The alarm indication should be slightly delayed to avoid alarms at low driving speeds. Nevertheless, the delay should be as short as possible so that sudden, brief interruptions can also be detected.

Figure 1.

  1. Amount of seed fed out. Activates an alarm if the amount fed out (seeds/ha) is less than the alarm level, as a percentage for one of the row units. The alarm level is indicated as a percentage of the set feed rate in the calibration menu.

  2. Alarm delay (secs) for seed fed out. Basic setting: 5 seconds.

  3. Alarm level for percentage deviation in the spacing between seeds on average for all row units.

  4. Alarm delay (secs) for seeds per second.

  5. Planting accuracy alarm level. Generates an alarm if the planting accuracy for one of the row units is less than the set alarm level.

  6. Alarm delay (sec) for planting accuracy. Basic setting: 5 seconds.

  7. Alarm level for the number of skips within each row. Default setting: 20%

  8. Alarm level for the number of doubles within each row. Default setting: 20%

  9. Alarm delay (sec) for the number of skips and doubles.
