Calibration

Screen: SETUP - YIELD CAL

Press: SETUP >> HARVEST MONITOR >> YIELD CALIBRATION

Mass flow sensors must be calibrated in order to achieve accurate cotton weights. Calibration should be performed when necessary as condition and maturity of the crop change or at least once a season.

Quick Calibration: Easiest calibration procedure when there is no scale available for weighing harvest samples.

Standard Calibration: Used when actual weights can be obtained from a scale for harvest samples.

Manual Calibration: Only used if the previous procedures do not work because calibration is off by more than 50%. Before performing manual calibration, check to make sure all components in the yield monitoring system are installed and performing correctly, and that sensors are unobstructed.

Post Calibration: Done in JDOffice. There is no post calibration procedure to be performed in the field or on the GreenStar display. This is the recommended method for best results. JDOffice allows post calibration using the weight of the crop from the whole field or the weight of the crop from each module, depending on the level of detail wanted.
