Calibrating the metering unit

  1. To select the correct bottom flap position for calibration:

    Read-out the bottom flap position from the table 1 and move the lever 2 to the desired position.
  1. Pull out the calibration trough 1.
  1. To collect the seed in the calibration trough 1:

    Turn the calibration trough with the opening facing up.
  1. Retract in the 1 calibration trough.
  1. To route the seed into the calibration trough:

    Bring the calibration lever 1 into the end position beyond the catch.
  2. Push the calibration lever back and let it engage in calibration position.
  1. Refer to Table 2 for the volume of the metering wheels.
  2. To start calibration via the calibration button 1 or the TwinTerminal:

    See the ISOBUS software operating manual Calibrating menu

or

see operating manual control computer.

  1. To start calibration via the control terminal,

    See the ISOBUS software operating manual Calibrating menu

or

see operating manual control computer.

  1. Swing down the bracket 1 on the steps.
  1. Take the scale 2 and the collapsible bucket 1 out of the SmartCenter.
  1. Hook the scale 2 onto the bracket 1 of the steps.
  2. To weigh the collected seed from the calibration trough:

    Hook the collapsible bucket 3 onto the scale and pour in seed.

Usually, the desired seed rate is not reached at first calibration. The achieve the desired seed rate, the calibration must be repeated several times.

  1. To enter the weight of the collected seed on the TwinTerminal, control terminal or control computer:

    See the ISOBUS software operating manual Calibrating menu

or

see operating manual control computer.
