VISIONTRAK Performance Monitor-Operating

    VISIONTRAK Performance Monitor will be active when:

  • Engine is running
  • Road transport disconnect switch is in field position
  • Header is engaged
  • Separator is engaged

1. Press button (A) for closest grain size (see following table).

Small Seed Medium Seed Large Seed
Flax Guar Corn
Grass Popcorn Edible Beans
Millet Safflower Peas
Mustard Sorghum Soybeans
Oats Wheat Sunflowers
Rape Barley  
Rice    
Rye    

 

2. Adjust combine and header to acceptable loss levels for the particular crop and condition. Ignore center bar graph on VISIONTRAK display at this time.

3. Operate combine at acceptable loss level.

4. Press calibration button (B) to place total loss in the center of display (C). Bar graph indicates the combine is operating at total loss levels that was acceptable by operator in step 3.

Center bar graph is now a visual guide. Operator can refer to the display periodically to know when an increase or decrease in the total loss amount occurs. More detailed monitoring can be obtained by monitoring loss levels of the cleaning shoe and separator.

5. If center bar graph moves downward (A), the combine is not operating at maximum productivity. Combine is either incorrectly adjusted for an acceptable loss levels or moving at too slow of a ground speed. Make combine and/or header adjustments as necessary or increase ground speed to bring the bar graph back into the middle of display area.

6. If bar graph moves upward (B), the combine is either incorrectly adjusted for an acceptable loss level or is moving too fast a ground speed. Make combine and/or header adjustments as necessary or reduce ground speed to bring the bar graph back into the middle of display area.

7. When crop conditions change during the day (straw moisture, dew, etc.), make occasional loss checks to determine if readjustment is necessary.

NOTE: When the combine encounters a "slug", middle bar graph will fluctuate upward (for about 15 to 20 seconds) and return to previous reading. Ignore these fluctuations when this occurs.
