    5 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 10 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 11 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 12 If the sensor is mounted to this portion of the boom, the system will force the boom downwards towards the ground as the boom folds backwards. 4. Mount the NORAC UC5 ultrasonic sensor into the sensor bracket and run the sensor cable through the sensor tube.

    6 Module Installation Control Module: Self Propel Sprayer 1. Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 9. 2. Securely mount the control module (E01) inside the sprayer cab, using screws or cable ties. 3. Connect the display terminal to the control module using the existing display cable. This cable must be connected to the end of the control module with only one Deutsch connector.
  • Page 14 Control Module: Pull Type Sprayer 1. Refer to Figure 2 and Figure 10. 2. Securely mount the control module (E01) near the hitch of the sprayer, near the display terminal connections. 3. Connect the display terminal to the control module using the existing display CAN-bus cable. This cable must be connected to the end of the control module with only one Deutsch connector.
  • Page 15 Input Module 1. Install the input module (E03) on the boom near the sprayer valve block. Secure it to the boom with cable ties. 2. Connect the free end of the CAN-bus cable (C01) from the control module to the input module.

  • Page 16: Connecting The Sensors To The Can-Bus

    Follow existing cables and hoses to be sure the cable will not be pinched or stretched. Figure 12: UC5 Module Locations and Cable Connections 4. At the sensor brackets, attach a 3-way coupler (E10) to the sprayer boom. Plug the sensor and the CAN-bus cable into the 3-way coupler.

  • Page 17: Software Setup

    Begin the AUTOMATIC SYSTEM SETUP procedure as described in the UC5 Spray Height Control Operator’s Manual. 5. For optimal performance of the UC5 system, there should be very little play at the hitch clevis. The addition of polymer washers can help tighten up this connection (Figure 13).
