SELF TEST FEATURE

1)
SELF TEST allows speed simulation for testing the system while the vehicle is
not moving.
km/h] is desired, enter 6.0 [9.6] (See CONSOLE PROGRAMMING).
depressing
TEST speed will clear itself when motion of the vehicle is detected by the Speed
Sensor.
The speed displayed may be different than the self test speed entered
depending on the SPEED CAL value.
NOTE: To prevent nuisance clearing of self-test speed, disconnect speed connector
on back of the Console.
2)
Display the Console set-up selections depress and hold
will cycle through the set-up selections (US or SI, SP1, SP2, SP3, C-P, C-Sd,
C-F, or C-FC).
3)
The following is an example on how to use the DCS 410 as a troubleshooting
tool.
When placed in the self-test mode it allows the operator and technician
to duplicate system operation.
EXAMPLE:
To determine the maximum application rate that the truck is capable of applying
at a given speed.
1)
Depress
2)
Place the RATE knob to the "M" position.
3)
Use the INC switch until application rate in the LIQ display no longer
increases.
4)
The rate in the LIQ display is the maximum application rate at 25 mph.
5)
Enter a self test speed of 30 mph and the LIQ display will show the maximum
application rate for that speed.
6)
Repeat this procedure of increasing the speed to obtain all maximum
application rates at specific speeds.
EXAMPLE:
The operator wants to travel at 30 mph and apply a rate of 80 gallons per mile.
After performing the procedure stated above it was determined that the maximum
application rate at 30 mph was 70 gallons per mile.
system of the truck is at the maximum capacity. The following are some possible
choices to increase the capacity; 1) decrease the vehicle speed, 2) accept a lower
application rate at that speed, 3) increase output of liquid pump if possible,
4) change nozzles, 5) utilize tier capability.
