Brillion Elite Mini Monitor
Brillion Elite Mini Monitor provides information to the
operator and acts as an interface for clutch control. The
display shows seed shaft rotation, low bin levels, acres
seeded, and clutch engagement. The touch screen allows
the operator to engage all or individual clutches.
See "Brillion Elite Mini Monitor" Chapter for more
information and a detailed guide to the use of your
monitor.
IMPORTANT
The Brillion Elite Mini Monitor System by Loup
utilizes a MUX communication line. Sensors must be
learned into the Monitor. Location of each pre-learned
Smart Shaft Sensor or Bin Level Sensor is important
for proper Monitor display. Each Sensor utilizes 3
wires (+, -, MuxBus) to connect to the system. The
Harnesses do not require a specific Sensor
connection points. Each Sensor is identified in the
Monitor by its own signal.
WARNING
High Power Magnet in use. "High Power Magnet"
on page 1-2
•
Bin Level Sensors are installed on adjustable
brackets in the outer end of each seed box. When
the sensor is submerged in seed, no alarm will
sound. As the seed level falls below the sensor eye,
an alarm will be indicated on the Brillion Elite Mini
Monitor. Raise or lower the Bin Level Sensor Bracket
inside the Seed Box to the desired seed level.
•
On the Rear RH side of each Seeder Section is a
Smart Shaft Sensor that is installed on a Sensor
Mount that is attached to the mounting hardware of
two seed cups. The Smart Shaft Sensor is activated
by a High Powered Magnet in a Spacer that is kept in
place from rotating on the Seed Shaft with Set
Screws. As the seed shaft rotates the Smart Shaft
Sensor detects the magnet. When no signal is
detected for pre-defined seconds, an alarm will be
indicated on the Brillion Elite Mini Monitor. Note: If
shaft sensor stall alarm occurs, be aware that the
affected seeder has not been planting for
pre-defined seconds.
•
Brillion Elite Mini Monitor provides users the ability to
toggle the seeder clutches on or off.
•
Brillion Elite Mini Monitor will monitor field and total
acres.
•
Brillion Elite Mini Monitor is operated on a 12-Volt DC
negative ground system. The monitor should be
connected using the existing convenience plug
connection.

•
The Elite Mini Tractor Harness attaches to the Brillion
Elite Mini Monitor and connects the Seeder Main
Harness. See Figure 2-5. The 6-Pin Connection may
be plugged/unplugged at the front of the Folding
Seeder Hitch when hooking/unhooking the Folding
Seeder. This allows the monitor to stay in the tractor
if so desired.
•
A 4-Pin radar connection is provided as an optional
connection for the speed sensor. The speed signal
may be determined by either the tractor radar or the
speed sensor located on the Seeder.

Console w/Clutch Control
(Used on models before the Brillion Elite Mini Monitor)
Basic Operation:
During normal operation the monitor LED for each shaft
will not be illuminated. The shaft sensor will be activated
by a magnet attached to the shaft being monitored. The
shaft sensors are standard Loup shaft sensors, set to 20
second delay timing. When no signal is detected for 20
seconds by the sensor, the corresponding LED in the
console will illuminate and the audible alarm will sound
indicating a fault. The alarm will become silent after 30
seconds and will not sound again until all shafts return to
a fully functional condition. The LED for other shafts will
indicate a second fault but the alarm will not sound unless
all shafts are functional after the INITIAL alarm.
NOTE
If shaft sensor stall alarm occurs, be aware that the
affected seed box has not been planting for 20 seconds.
The Clutch Master toggle switch allows you to go from
SEED to No SEED operations or you can control
individual clutches by toggling the appropriate switch.
