  • Page 12 BRACKET MOUNTING LINEAR ROLL ROGATOR LT - LOWER Do not use high speed power tools/drills when installing hardware. The use of dielectric grease is not recommended on any NORAC electrical connections. To ensure all stainless steel hardware does not gall or seize apply a light coating of the supplied Permatex Anti-seize grease to all threaded parts upon installation.
  • Page 13: Pre-Install Checklist

    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.
  • Page 14: Ultrasonic Sensor Installation

    Ultrasonic Sensor Installation Bracket Assembly Assemble the breakaway sensor bracket as illustrated in Figure 5, following the instructions below. Figure 5: Breakaway Bracket Assembly 1. Compress the spring and insert it together with the collar into the base. 2. Slide the tube through the assembled part. 3.
  • Page 15 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. Apply a light coating of the supplied Permatex Anti-seize grease to all threaded parts upon installation.
  • Page 16 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 (A). 2.
  • Page 17 Wing Sensor Installation 1. The sensor bracket should be oriented forward (ahead of the boom). 2. Typically the best mounting location for the outer wing sensor brackets will be near the end of the boom tips, approximately two feet (60cm) from the end. 3.
  • Page 18 A problem can arise if a sensor is not mounted correctly. It is possible for the sensor to read off of the boom instead of the ground. This may only become apparent once the control system is switched from soil to crop mode. Also be careful that the sensor bracket does not collide with any other part of the boom when the boom is folded to transport position.
  • Page 19 Main Lift Sensor Installation 1. There are a variety of ways to mount the main lift bracket on most sprayers. The bracket should position the sensor approximately in the center of the sprayer, forward of the boom. An example of this mounting is illustrated in Figure 11. 2.
  • Page 20: Module Installation

    (Figure 13). 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. 5. Connect the cables marked “NORAC C2” and “NORAC C3” to the control module CANbus connectors.

  • 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...
  • Page 23 Figure 16: Valve Module Bracket Installation 5. 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 C03 from the other CANbus connector to the 8-way coupler (E11).

    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.
  • Page 25 Figure 18: NORAC Valve Block Details Valve Block Mounting 1. A suitable mounting location for the valve block on the Rogator is illustrated in Figure 19. 2. Insert the threaded rod into the block and use a hex nut to hold the rod. The block holes are 3/8”...
  • Page 26 Linear Roll Cylinder Assembly and Installation Before continuing, tilt both the left and right booms up to the top of their stroke to make it easier to rotate the boom. 1. Before installing the linear roll cylinder, the factory springs, dampers and rubber bumpers must be removed from the sprayer.
  • Page 27 2. In the linear roll cylinder crate is the linear roll cylinder, boom target, spring target and sensor bracket. Figure 22: Linear Roll Cylinder Assembly Figure 23: Linear Roll Cylinder Mounting Location...
  • Page 28 3. Using the supplied 1 inch bolt and two spacers, install the damper end (one port) of the linear roll cylinder onto the top mounting bracket. There must be a spacer on each side of the spherical bearing. The damper should be mounted on the back side of the mount (between the mount and boom).
  • Page 29 6. Install the spring target and align by rotating the metal casing around the linear roll cylinder. 7. Install a sensor onto the sensor mounting bracket. 8. Mount the sensor bracket to the damper end (the end with no hoses). A straight edge can be used to line up the spring target with the center of the hole on the sensor mounting bracket.
  • Page 30 5. Connect hose H04 to the tee (F02) and route to the NORAC valve block. Figure 27: Rogator Pressure and Tank Plumbing 6. Connect hose H04 to the pressure port and hose H05 to the tank port on the NORAC valve block.
  • Page 31 (H02) connects to the right tee. Route the hoses to the tilt cylinders. H03 is longer than H02 since the NORAC valve block is normally located on the right side of the sprayer. 12. Connect H02 and H03 to the cylinders using the 12FORX 6MOR fittings (F05).
  • Page 32: Connecting The Sensors To The Canbus

    Connecting the Sensors to the CANbus 1. Fasten the 8-way coupler (E11) to the boom with cable ties. Connect cable C03 from the valve module to the 8-way coupler. 2. Connect the main lift sensor to the 8-way coupler using cable C04 and a 2-way coupler (E12).
  • Page 33: Software Setup

    10 Software Setup AGCO armrest version must be 1.0.0.120302.1100 (Update 90). 1. Start up the sprayer and test the sprayer’s functionality. The display terminal does not need to be powered on for the original boom function switches to operate. Unfold the booms and raise/lower each boom and the main section.

    12 Start Up and System Check 12.1 Pre-Calibration Check 1. Before driving to a suitable setup and test location, verify system communication and firmware versions. 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.
  • Page 37 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.
  • Page 38 Select the Next button (right arrow). Select the Setup button. Select Automatic Setup. Acknowledge the warning. Select the sprayer make and model from the lists. Then select the Check button. Read and acknowledge all of the precaution screens by pressing the Check button. It is very important that you read these precautions and follow them.
  • Page 39 Press and hold the Check button. Continue holding while each boom section is moved. The display will show an arrow. At this time the boom will be in motion. When it is done the display will instruct you to release the Check button. Do not move the booms at this time.
  • Page 40 The reading can be changed by selecting the reading and entering the appropriate height. 3. Using the NORAC Verification Tool to log data, perform the following: a) Save all settings. b) Step Test - Manually raise the right wing to 60 inches and lower the left wing to 20 inches.
