If a DIST FAILED message occurs and the problem cannot be fixed, a set speed can be entered to allow continued monitoring of seed flow. Fast Average, Area, and Speed readouts will not be available while operating in this mode. Row Failed messages occurs when seed counts drop below two seeds per second. Hi and Low population warning messages are deactivated in this mode.

In this mode, even though actual populations can remain accurate at slower and faster speeds, the monitor is going to show fluctuating populations because it assumes that the machine is traveling at a constant speed. Displayed population can only be close to actual population when actual ground speed matches set speed.

Speed Set Mode is deactivated each time monitor is powered off.

  1. NOTE: Speed Set Mode is deactivated each time monitor is powered off.
