Auto Rate Control Calibration - Raven SCS 450
STEP 12: OPTIONAL
Press [VOL/TANK] then [ENTER]
Enter the volume in the tank in litres at start of
spraying e.g. 3000.
Press [ENTER]
STEP 12: OPTIONAL
Press [TIME] then [ENTER]
Enter the time of the day e.g. 10:30.
Press [ENTER]
STEP 14: HYDRAULIC DRIVE SPRAY PUMP ONLY
Press [SPEED] and hold down for 5 seconds until
speed value begins to flash. When the pump is
fitted with hydraulic drive, the flashing 'speed' figure
represents the pump's RPM.
TO ZERO INFORMATION WHEN ENTERING
NEW FIELD
When entering a new field, the previous data in the
console can be changed to zero so that the new
data is current for that field only.
NOTE: Write down all necessary data before
removing data from console memory
TO ZERO OUT DATA IN AREA AND VOLUME
STEP 1: Write down the previous information for
Area and Volume.
STEP 2: Press Area or Volume (Total or Field for
SCS450 consoles).
STEP 3: Press [ENTER]
STEP 4: Enter '0'
STEP 5: Press [ENTER]
The Area and Volume will now count from zero for
the new field.
SELF-TEST SIMULATION
By simulating speed, the Raven controller can be
tested without having to move. The Raven works in
rate (i.e. litres per hectare) and a speed is required
in order to calculate a rate. The self-test simulation
provides the console with a simulated speed even
though the sprayer is stationary and thus the console
will be able to display a rate.
This self-test should be performed when first testing
the system so that the operator can become familiar
with the working system.
20 - Chapter 6 - Calibration
STEP 1: Press [SELF TEST] then [ENTER]
STEP 2: Enter speed (i.e. 12.0 for 12 km/h)
STEP 3: Press [ENTER]
STEP 4: Press [SPEED] to verify speed
The sprayer will now operate so that it can be
tested. Switch the boom sections on and off to see
that the system compensates and the applied rate
returns to the required rate. The self-test will cancel
when motion from the vehicle is detected by the
speed sensor. For radar speed sensor, disconnect the
speed cable going into the back of the console when
performing a self-test.
