Note:The ‘Pressure Readout’ display, is only displayed if ‘Pr. Sensor’ is selected in OPTIONS/SPRAYER and an electronic pressure sensor is installed on the sprayer.

The number in the top left hand side of the ‘Pressure Readout’ represents which tank (1,2 or

3)the pressure sensor is connected to. The above ‘Pressure Readout’ is displaying a ‘1’, therefore the pressure readout displayed is connected to ‘Tank 1’. Up to 3 ‘Pressure Readouts’ can be displayed, if required. The units used are displayed in the ‘Pressure Readout’.

Selecting the ‘Pressure Readout’ from the ‘Working Screen’, displays the ‘Tank X Pressure’ window. The ‘X’ represents which tank (1,2 or3) the pressure sensor is connected to and which tank the pressure alarms and pressure calibrations are set up for.

Setting the PRESSURE ALARMS
