Setup Sprayer Response

N101908-UN-08MAY13

A - Setup Softkey

B - Spray Setup Tab

C - Drop-down Box

The response time has five different settings. Five indicates the fastest response time (MAX) and 1 indicates the slowest response time (MIN). Each step down from 5 requires more response time to adjust to the target rate.

For almost all situations, the response time should be set at 3 for all R4030, R4038, and R4045 sprayers. If a different boom is installed, or an unusual configuration on a John Deere boom is installed, the response time may have to be reduced or slowed.

When To Change The Response Time Setting:

• When the target application rate is never reached increase response
• When the application rate is erratic decrease response
• When the time it takes the actual application rate to reach the target rate is quite long, approximately more than 4 seconds increase response

To change the response time do the following:

1. Select the Setup softkey (A) to view the setup menu.

2. Select the Spray Setup tab (B).

3. Select drop-down box (C) next to Spray System MIN MAX and select the new value.

   NOTE: 1 is the minimum sprayer response setting and 5 is the maximum sprayer setting. To choose correct setting, start with response time setting of 4. If this response time does not provide acceptable performance, repeat procedure using a lower setting.
