Defining the geometry values of the mounted machine

Grain placement is controlled based on the geometry.

The geometry values are pre-set. If the geometry values must be changed, the distances must be precisely re-measured.

NOTE
When seeding coulters are mounted or removed, the geometry must be adjusted.

PREREQUISITES

  • MultiBoom must be licensed and available on the control terminal

  • MultiBoom must be switched on on the control terminal

  1. In the Settings menu, select Implement > Geometry.
  2. Enter the number of rows under Installed rows.

When the number of rows is changed, the graphic that appears shows the arrangement of the rows on the distributor head.

  1. Enter the set row spacing under Row spacing.

  2. To enter the positions of the placement points:

    Continue with .

Depending on the software version, at activated MultiBoom either 2 or 3 placement points are available. Either one placement point is available for each applied material, or seed and micro-granules are switched together with one placement point. Fertilizer is switched with another application point. If Multi Boom is deactivated, the placement point is defined for seed.

  1. To activate Multi Boom:

    In the Settings menu, select Profile > ISOBUS and activate Multi Boom.
  2. Enter the spacing of the placement points under 1.

  3. For an offset to the left:

    Under 2, enter the offset with a negative sign.

or

For an offset to the right:

Enter the offset with a positive sign.

When seeding coulters are mounted or removed, the segment distributor head must be calibrated.
