Figure 31: Options- Tanks page
Tanks
Most sprayers will only have one tank selected. Therefore select ‘Tank 1’ only.
Note: If any of the ‘Spray ECU’s’ have the appropriate Chemical Injection Pump hardware installed with a 4 channel MDECU and the ‘CONFIG/Using Injection ECU’ option selected then up to 3 tanks maybe selected.
If more than 1 tank is selected then ‘Tank 2 Mode’ and or ‘Tank 3 Mode’ will appear next to ‘Tank 1 Mode’.
If more than 1 tank is selected then ‘Pr. Sense’ for ‘Tank 2’ and/or ‘Tank 3’ will appear; also the ‘Controller 2’ and/or ’Controller 3’ windows will appear.
Tank 1 Mode
The ‘Tank 1 Mode’ selects the appropriate units depending which mode is chosen, ie when ‘Liquid’ is selected then the units are set to ‘Litres’, ‘L/Ha’ and Flow sensor to ‘pulses per litre’ (if metric units were selected).
The Tank Mode is normally set to ‘Liquid’ for spraying.
Select ‘Granular’ if using the ‘Spray Controller’ as a spreader controller.
Select ‘Injection’ if the Spray system has a ‘Chemical Injection Pump’ and ‘2 or 4 channel MDECU’ installed.
Select ‘NH3’ if connecting the ‘Spray Controller’ to an Anhydrous Gas Tank.
Note: ‘Tank 1 Mode’ and ‘Tank 2 Mode’ only become available when ‘Tank 2’ and/or ‘ ‘Tank 3‘ are selected.
Controller 1
If ‘Spray Interface’ is selected as the ‘Controller’, then only ‘Reg. Valve’ (Regulator Valve) can be selected and that is why the option is ‘greyed out’ and no selection is possible.
Select the ‘Settings’ button, then go to Section 3.1 to setup the ‘Regulator Valve’
If ‘Spray ECU’ is selected as the ‘Controller’, then either ‘Reg. Valve’ or ‘Prop. Valve’ (Proportional Valve) can be selected. Depending whether the type of controller is a ‘Regulator’ or ‘Proportional’.
Then select the ‘Settings’ button.
See Section 3.1 if selecting ‘Reg Valve’, OR Section 3.2 if selecting ‘Prop. Valve’.
