  • Page 21: Calibration Test Results Page

    CAUTION! If values are changed in the Calibration menu, a new calibration test must be performed. TIP! For small seed types (e.g. canola, phacelia, poppy, etc.), a calibration time of 2 minutes is recommended. For larger seed types (e.g. wheat, barley, peas etc.), a calibration time of 0.5 minutes is sufficient.
  • Page 22: Performing A Calibration Test

    This is where the calculated minimum and maximum working speed are shown. 6.3.3.2 PERFORMING A CALIBRATION TEST With the calibration test, the suitable seeding shaft speed is determined for the selected settings (see point 6.3.3). NOTE! A proper calibration test is important, as it is the only way to ensure that your desired spread rate is achieved.
  • Page 23 If the calculated seeding shaft speed is within the possible motor speeds, the calibration test was successful. If the message "Repeat calibration test" is output this means that the deviation between the calculated spread rate and the weight of the calibrated seed is greater than 20%. If this is the case, the calibration test must always be repeated to ensure a correct spread rate.
