Why is the app showing false blockages?
1. Do a crank test to ensure that product flows from each opener.
2. On air seeders, ensure that you can feel air flow beneath the opener.
3. Ensure that the flow rate is set correctly in the app's settings page.
Configure light products, such as canola, flax, alfalfa, and grass, as "low" product
•
flow.
Configure very low rate products such as sunflowers as "very low" product flow.
•
4. Verify that ECU ports are enabled and correctly mapped in the app.
a. Tap the settings
b. Tap Edit Config.
c. Tap on a Primary or Section number and verify that the configuration is correct.
5. Verify that each primary or section has the correct ECU serial number assigned to it.
Refer to the instructions above to access the configuration page.
6. Verify that you are checking the right hose. Before shutting off product flow, take a
screenshot of the blockage screen (press the iPad's top button and Home button at the
same time). The screenshot will be stored in your iPad's photos.
7. Verify that the auditory hose is not kinked, pinched, or damaged.
8. Verify that the auditory hose is attached to the correct ECU port.
9. Verify that the auditory hose is securely attached to the ECU by pushing the hose onto
the ECU port.
10. Move the auditory hose to a new port on the ECU to assess if the problem is a port on
the ECU not functioning correctly. Ensure that you re-assign that run to the new ECU
port in the app (Refer to Step 4 on the previous page for instructions).
11. If inline sensors are installed, verify that they are not installed backwards or upside
down. The arrow on the sensor should point downward.
12. Check if the sensor is clogged.
13. Disconnect the seed hose to check for buildup on the sensor membrane.
