  • Page 13: Pre-Install Checklist

    Pre-Install Checklist The pre-install checklist is necessary to check the existing sprayer functionality before the installation. 1. Unfold the sprayer over a flat, unobstructed area (i.e. no power lines…etc.). 2. Ensure all boom-fold operations are functional (place a check mark in boxes below). 3.

  • Page 14: Ultrasonic Sensor Installation

    Ultrasonic Sensor Installation Bracket Assembly Assemble the breakaway sensor bracket as illustrated in Figure 5, following the instructions below. Figure 5: Breakaway Bracket Assembly 1. Compress the spring and insert it together with the collar into the base. 2. Slide the tube through the assembled part. 3.
  • Page 15 Ultrasonic Sensor Serial Number Arrangement When installing the UC5 sensors, start with the smallest serial number on the left-hand side, and proceed to the largest serial number on the right hand side. Each UC5 sensor has a serial number stamped on the sensor housing. Apply a light coating of the supplied Permatex Anti-seize grease (M06) to all threaded parts upon installation.
  • Page 16 Ultrasonic Sensor Mounting Guidelines The following guidelines will ensure optimal sensor performance and prevent sensor measurement error. These rules should be followed for both the wing sensors and the main lift (middle) sensor. 1. In its lowest position, the sensor must be 9 inches (23 cm) or more from the ground (A). 2.
  • Page 17 Wing Sensor Installation 1. The sensor bracket should be oriented forward (ahead of the boom). 2. Typically the best mounting location for the outer wing sensor brackets will be near the end of the boom tips, approximately two feet (60cm) from the end. 3.
  • Page 18 A problem can arise if a sensor is not mounted correctly. It is possible for the sensor to read off of the boom instead of the ground. This may only become apparent once the control system is switched from soil to crop mode. Also be careful that the sensor bracket does not collide with any other part of the boom when the boom is folded to transport position.
  • Page 19 Main Lift Sensor Installation 1. There are a variety of ways to mount the main lift bracket on most sprayers. The bracket should position the sensor approximately in the center of the sprayer, forward of the boom. An example of this mounting is illustrated in Figure 11. 2.

  • Page 20: Roll Sensor Installation

    Roll Sensor Installation Bracket Assembly 1. Securely mount the roll sensors to the included roll sensor brackets using the #6 machine screw and nylon lock-nuts. 2. The orientation of the mounted roll sensor to the roll sensor bracket will depend on the bracket mounting.
  • Page 21 Roll Sensor Mounting Guidelines 1. When mounting the roll sensors, mount one to the boom frame and one to the chassis (non-pivoting portion of the sprayer). 2. Both roll sensor cables should be pointing towards the right hand wing of the sprayer. 3.

  • Page 28 Linear Damper Installation Before continuing, tilt both the left and right booms up to the top of their stroke to make it easier to rotate the boom. 1. Before installing the linear damper, the factory springs and dampers must be removed from the sprayer.
  • Page 29 2. Using the supplied 1 inch bolt and two spacers, install the end of the linear damper with the hydraulic port onto the top mounting bracket. There must be a spacer on each side of the spherical bearing. The damper should be mounted on the back side of the mount (between the mount and boom).

Connect each of the two H04 hoses to fittings *F07 and route the hoses to the NORAC valve block. 10. Connect each of the two H04 hoses to the corresponding left and right “B” port on the NORAC valve block.

  • Page 32: Connecting The Sensors To The Canbus

    10 Connecting the Sensors to the CANbus 1. Fasten the 8-way coupler (E11) to the boom with cable ties. Connect cable C03 from the valve module to the 8-way coupler. 2. Connect one roll sensor to the 8-way coupler using cable C03 and a 2-way coupler (E12). Connect the other roll sensor directly to the 8-way coupler.

  • Page 33: Software Setup

    11 Software Setup AGCO armrest version must be 1.0.0.120302.1100 (Update 90). 1. Start up the sprayer and test the sprayer’s functionality. The display terminal does not need to be powered on for the original boom function switches to operate. Unfold the booms and raise/lower each boom and the main section.

  • Page 36: Start Up And System Check

    13 Start Up and System Check 13.1 Pre-Calibration Check 1. Before driving to a suitable setup and test location, verify system communication and firmware versions. Follow the steps below on the ROGATOR Management Center UC5 page to locate the firmware of all components. Turn the key switch to on to supply power to the UC5 system.
  • Page 37 2. Park the sprayer on level ground with no vegetation. Calibration must be performed with the sensors “looking at” bare ground, gravel or carpet. Hard surfaces such as concrete and asphalt are not desirable. Snow and puddled water will also cause calibration problems 3.
  • Page 38 Read and acknowledge all of the precaution screens by pressing the Check button. It is very important that you read these precautions and follow them. Follow the on screen directions by pressing the sprayer’s manual boom movement buttons. Level the boom at or near 35 inches (actual measurements can be taken and entered later).
  • Page 39 13.3 Post-Calibration Check 1. Put the system into Auto Mode by pressing the “A” button. The boom should level out. Put the system back into Manual Mode by pressing the “M” button. 2. Verify that the sensor heights are correct. Measure the distance from the lowest point of the boom to the ground near each sensor. ...
  • Page 40 3. Using the NORAC Verification Tool to log data, perform the following: a) Save all settings. b) Step Test - Manually raise the right wing to 60 inches and lower the left wing to 20 inches. Place the system in Auto by pressing the “A”. Observe the wing response. The entire wing should level out to the set height and should be stable.
