Run Time Data
Modes Description
Auto (Automatic) This mode allows for the injection pump to run at a target application
rate (oz./ac or L/ha) by compensating for changes in section width
and speed.
Manual This mode allows for the injection pump to be run at a fixed flow rate
(oz./min. or L/min.). The application rate (oz./ac. or L/ha) does not
compensate for section width and speed changes. This mode is
typically used for testing purposes.
Rx This mode allows the system to automatically change the rate of
injected chemical based upon a prescription map loaded on the VT
display.
CAL/PRM
(Calibrate/Prime)
This mode allows for chemical to be primed to the outlet of the pump
and to validate pump performance through a 1 oz. calibration test.
The following information is available for the selected pump control channel.
Note: The following usage statistics are the last available values recorded during pump operation.
Pressure. The pressure of the injection product monitored at pump outlet port.
FER Value. The FER (flow to encoder ratio) value is a tool used in conjunction with the FER Error Cal to
identify the relative efficiency of the pump. This area displays a value between 0 and 100.
Motor RPM. The current RPM of the injection pump motor is displayed in this area.
