Connect the sensor branch cable (C02) to the 4-pin AMP plug (P4) on C11 (Figure 18).
1. Test the functionality of the original manufacturer’s boom controls. 4. For the FT2 system it is recommended NORAC Control Panel (Item E01) does that a full software install be done prior not need to be powered up for the to delivery of the sprayer.
END USER INSTALLATION 1. Install the UC4+ Control Panel (E01) in the cab of the sprayer. Mount the panel where it will be clearly visible and within easy reach of the operator. A good spot to mount the UC4+ control panel is on the right hand side of the cab to the Roll Over Protection Bar.
