6.4 Machine settings

CAUTION

If a machine configuration needs to be done, keep in mind that an invalid machine configuration can damage the machine.

Figure 1.

  1. Selecting machine type. TPF, TPL, TPR, TPT or TPV.

  2. Seed Central Fill (NO/2m³/3m³)

    If this setting is switched on, a central grain hopper will be used, which will feed out to each row unit. This setting is only available for TPL machines, without fertiliser and with two workstations (WS9).

    2m³ grain hopper is used for Central Fill Combi.

  3. Number of workstations (WS9) on the machine 1

  4. Generator control FIXED/AUTOMATIC (only for TPL; the generator on a TPL can either have its exciter connected to fixed voltage (fixed) or switched on as needed from the software (automatic). The selected option must correspond to the machine’s cable harness.

  5. BioDrill motors (0/1/2)

  6. Liquid fertiliser ON/OFF

  7. Liquid fertiliser work pressure

    Height detector type. This is displayed if the number of height detectors is 1. If two detectors are selected, a right and left detector type will be displayed.

  8. Calibrating the height source

  9. Left height detector type. Only displayed when the number of height detectors is set to 2.

  10. Right height detector type. Only displayed when the number of height detectors is set to 2.

  2. Hydraulic wing folding ON/OFF 3

  3. Seed level sensor ON/OFF

  4. Markers ON/OFF

  5. Hydraulic row unit pressure ON/OFF

  6. Wingspan (7.2m or less/ 8.1m or more)

Figure 5.

Setting wing pressure control, Figure 5. Manual or electronic wing pressure control is specified depending on the type of valve block mounted on the machine. Only selectable for TPL.

  2. Fan pulses per revolution, fertiliser, see Table 2

  3. Fan pulses per revolution, Central Fill

  4. Fan pulses per revolution, BioDrill

  5. Setting of Aux connection. Only selectable for TPL. Choose for external fertiliser or WideLining.

    Note

    On some machines, the Aux 1 connection may be called W09X105.

1 TPF has one WS, except when hydraulic row unit pressure is selected, in which case it has two WS. TPR, TPT and TPT always have 1 WS.
2 Not selectable for TPL.
3 Selectable for TPF
