X20 Sprayer Reference Manual

Connecting to a Speed Sensor

This installation is used if connecting an A238 Shaft/Speed Sensor kit (for ground speed) or A449 Radar Sensor Interface Harness (not supplied in kit) to the Ground Speed Connector on either the Tractor Harness or Sprayer Harness.

NOTICE NOTICE

Connect to only one of the Ground Speed connectors.

Select one of the following:

Installing the Shaft/Speed Sensor kit to an un-driven wheel on either the Tractor Harness or Sprayer Harness

Installing the Shaft/Speed Sensor kit to the Tailshaft of a vehicle on either the Tractor Harness or the Sprayer Harness

Use an existing Radar Speed sensor for Ground Speed

Installing the Shaft/Speed Sensor Kit to an Un-Driven Wheel for Ground Speed

NOTICE NOTICE

Use of a driven wheel for ground speed may be subject to “wheel slip” and may not always reflect true ground speed.

The Shaft/Speed Sensor and Wheel Stud Magnets can be fitted to any un-driven ground wheel, eg: the front wheel of the tractor or wheel on a trailing Sprayer.

The magnet activates the sensor as the wheel magnets sweep past (Figure 5-6 on page 5-12).
