When first entering the row, abrupt changes in ground height may require a faster or slower header response rate, depending on the rate preset using response rate dial (A).

During the first 10 seconds after activation, the header height control system uses a separate internal rate setting. This initial rate setting can be set to a value different from the normal response rate. After 10 seconds of operation, the system reverts to the normal preset rate.

If field conditions result in excessive row unit movement or bounce when entering the row, decrease the initial response rate setting in small increments until desired performance is achieved. Likewise, if the row units do not respond quickly enough, increase the initial response rate setting.

The initial 10 second response rate setting is stored in diagnostic address 114. Change the initial response rate setting as follows:

  1. Press menu button (B) on control console. Main menu screen appears on display unit.

  2. Highlight info icon (D) using selection dial (C) and press confirm button (E). Message center screen appears.
