Tier System (3Ts); Speed Sensors - Goldacres Crop Cruiser G6 Operator's Manual

Nozzles
In the event that any of your nozzles do not deliver
the required volume, a further investigation is
required. This may include, but not be limited to;
• Cleaning the nozzles using the method
recommended by the nozzle supplier
• Replacing the nozzles
• TeeJet advise that nozzles that flow greater than
+10% of their stated volume are 'worn out' and
should be replaced
• Cleaning nozzle filters
NOTE: Uneven volumes from individual nozzles will
result in variations in the application rate across the
width of the boom. Spray efficiency will be reduced.
Crop damage may result.

3 Tier System (3TS)

The Raven RCM controls the 3TS system. For
specific calibration and operating instructions, see
Raven RCM operation manual supplied.

Speed Sensors

Raven automatic rate controllers can utilise a speed
reading from the:
• Transmission Output
• GPS receiver
Transmission Output
When the transmission output is used for speed
the system must be set as if it were reading a radar
sensor (SP2).
GPS receiver
If a GPS unit is fitted, GPS ground speed can be
obtained and used in place of the transmission
output.
To receive a speed reading from the GPS unit a
pulsed niema string must be connected to the
speed cable of the console. The console must then
be set up to accept GPS speed. This is called radar
in the console calibration settings. When using GPS
the console speed cal figure is 200 initially and then
can be fine tuned from this figure. See 'Calibration'
chapter for further information on console setup.
