Pre-Install Checklist The pre-install checklist is necessary to check the existing sprayer functionality before the installation. 1. Unfold the sprayer over a flat, unobstructed area (i.e. no power lines…etc.). 2. Ensure all boom-fold operations are functional (place a check mark in boxes below). 3.
Ultrasonic Sensor Serial Number Arrangement When installing the UC5 sensors, start with the smallest serial number on the left-hand side, and proceed to the largest serial number on the right hand side. Each UC5 sensor has a serial number stamped on the sensor housing.
Page 13
Ultrasonic Sensor Mounting Guidelines The following guidelines will ensure optimal sensor performance and prevent sensor measurement error. These rules should be followed for both the wing sensors and the main lift (middle) sensor. 1. In its lowest position, the sensor must be 9 inches (23 cm) or more from the ground. 2.
Page 14
Low Profile Bracket Mounting Guidelines 1. Minimize the distance between the bolts to prevent bending the bracket and prevent the bracket from loosening over time. 2. Ensure the bracket is mounted tight against the bottom of the boom, minimizing the distance between the boom structure and the angled flange.

5 feet (1.5 m) from the end. 4. Mount the NORAC UC5 ultrasonic sensor into the sensor bracket and run the sensor cable either through hole in the back or through the side cut-out and behind the bracket.

Rainflap Installation Rainflaps are only installed in the wing sensor brackets. 1. Insert one side of the rainflap rod into the pre-bent hinge tab on the sensor bracket. (Figure 10) Figure 10: Rainflap Rod in Pre-Bent Hinge Tab 2. Align the other side of the rainflap rod with the unbent hinge tab. (Figure 11) Figure 11: Align Rainflap Rod 3.

Main Lift Sensor Installation 1. The main lift mounting bracket (B21) is the bracket with the longer mounting flange. 2. Mount the bracket as shown in Figure 14. Front Figure 13: Bracket Mounting Example 3. Mount the ultrasonic sensor to the main lift bracket. Run the sensor cable through hole and behind the bracket.
Roll Sensor Installation Bracket Assembly 1. Securely mount the roll sensors to the included roll sensor brackets using the #6 machine screws. Tighten screws to 10 in-lbs (1.1 Nm). 2. The orientation of the mounted roll sensor to the roll sensor bracket will depend on the bracket mounting.
Page 19
Roll Sensor Mounting Guidelines 1. When mounting the roll sensors, mount one to the boom frame (Figure 19) and one to the chassis (Figure 17) (non-pivoting portion of the sprayer). If the mounting plate shown in Figure 17 is not installed, use cable ties to mount the chassis roll sensor as shown in Figure 2.

2. Securely mount the control module (E01) inside the electrical box (Figure 21). 3. All cables that connect to the control module are located in the electrical box. 4. Connect the cable marked “NORAC C1” to the end of the control module with only one Deutsch connector.
Page 22
Valve Module 1. Install the valve module (E02) to the top of the NORAC valve block. Orient the 6-pin Deutsch (CANbus) connectors towards the “P” and “T” ports with the label facing up. Output Number Normal Function Left Up Left Down...

4. Connect one of the valve module CANbus connectors to the existing cable labeled “NORAC” running to the rear of the sprayer from the electrical box. Route cable C01 from the other CANbus connector to the 8-way coupler (E11). 5. With the valve module securely mounted to the valve block, connect the valve cables (C10), to the valve coils.
Component failure due to oil contamination is not covered under the NORAC UC5 system warranty. It is recommended that a qualified technician perform the hydraulic installation.

10 Connecting the Sensors to the CANbus 1. Fasten the 8-way coupler (E11) to the boom with cable ties. Connect cable C01 from the valve module to the 8-way coupler. 2. Connect the chassis roll sensor to the 8-way coupler using cable C02 and a 2-way coupler (E12).
3. Turn on the power for the display terminal using the switch on the side. 4. The procedure for the installation of the UC5 Spray Height Control system is now complete. Begin the AUTOMATIC SYSTEM SETUP procedure as described in the UC5...
Follow the steps below on the ROGATOR Management Center UC5 page to locate the firmware of all components. Turn the key switch to on to supply power to the UC5 system. After a brief system startup, the RMC UC5 Page will display a liability notice.

2. Park the sprayer on level ground with no vegetation. Calibration must be performed with the sensors “looking at” bare ground, gravel or carpet. Hard surfaces such as concrete and asphalt are not desirable. Snow and puddled water will also cause calibration problems 3.

(2) feet toward the ground (Do not contact the ground with the boom or the foam tip if equipped.). If the test is successful, the UC5 will automatically advance to the Valve Setup page. Press and hold the Check button and continue holding it until instructed to release it.
Page 36
13.3 Post-Calibration Check 1. Put the system into Auto Mode by pressing the “A” button. The boom should level out. Put the system back into Manual Mode by pressing the “M” button. 2. Verify that the sensor heights are correct. Measure the distance from the lowest point of the boom to the ground near each sensor. ...
