A |
Coupling offset Y: |
Distance between the ground contact point and the hitching point, measured in mm. |
|
B |
Coupling offset X: |
The distance between the tractor’s coupling point and the centre of the machine, measured in mm. The “positive” direction is to the right of the machine's direction of travel. That is to say, that if the machine has an offset to the right of the tractor, the value should be positive and if the machine has an offset to the left of the tractor, the value should be negative. Example: If the machine is going 3 cm to the right of the tractor, key-in 30 (mm) and if the machine is going 1 cm to the left of the tractor, key-in -10 (mm). |
|
C |
Seed and micro granulate section Y: |
The distance between the ground contact point and the seed coulters, measured in mm. Note, that if the seed coulters are positioned in front of the ground contact point, the value should be negative. |
|
D |
Fertiliser section Y: |
The distance between the ground contact point and the fertiliser coulters, measured in mm. The distance is indicated by a positive value in the direction of travel. Note that if the fertiliser coulters are positioned behind the ground contact point, the value should be negative. This parameter is only used if front hopper (FH) has been selected and is being controlled by TC. |

Section ON/OFF times
When the motors start or stop, there will be delays in the system, due to, for example, electrical signals and the fact that it takes a certain amount of time for the product to be transported before it reaches the ground. To compensate for this, you can specify turn-on and turn-off times.
