Area Counter Operation

Pressing the area counter switch (A) will activate the area counter display (B) of the Triple Display Tachometer.

To turn off the area counter and return to the normal tachometer display press the area switch (A). For metric system ha for hectares will appear and for English system A for acres will appear.

- Total Machine Area Counter is shown on the top line (C) along with the unit symbol (D). It accumulates area anytime the field counter accumulates area.

- Field Total Area Counter is shown on the middle line (E). This counter will sum area accumulated by the Field Area Counter until this one is cleared. This counter can be cleared through quick calibration procedure (ACFt), see "Calibration Procedures" Section.

- Field Area Counter is shown on the lower line (F). This counter accumulates area anytime a valid header is installed, header width is greater than zero and machine is in harvesting mode. This counter can be cleared through quick calibration procedure (ACFt), (see Calibration Procedures section).

The currently active area counter is selected by pressing switch (G) and indicated by arrow (H).

Area will only be accumulated and shown for the currently active area and the total area.

The area counting shall start and stop based upon the machine harvesting status message received from the header controller. How to set the machine harvesting threshold, see "Calibration Procedures" Section.

The area will be displayed to the nearest 1/10 of a unit (XXX.X) until a value of 999 units is reached. Then the display will only show area to the nearest whole units (XXXX).

If the area counter is not cleared prior to reaching 9999 then on the next accumulated unit the counter will roll over to 0 and will continue to display whole units to indicate that a number greater than 9999 exists.

How to clear the area counter (using a quick calibration procedure), (see Calibration Procedures section).
