detailed description of the SENSOR DISPLAY and SETUP menus, refer<br />

to Section 7 on page 22.<br />

4.5.3 The " +/- " switch<br />

Use the " +/- " toggle switch to change various settings in each of the<br />

SETUP and SENSOR DISPLAY menus. Use the " +/- " switch to<br />

increment/decrement numerical entries. If the switch is held, the number<br />

will continue to automatically increase/decrease. If the selections for the<br />

menu item are to be picked from a list, this switch will present the next<br />

selection in the list. When in AUTOMATIC (AUTO) mode, use this<br />

switch to modify the control height set point.<br />

Not all menus allow the operator to change the setting with the " +/- "<br />

switch. Some menus are only for informational purposes. In a menu where<br />

a setting cannot be changed, the " +/- " switch is ignored.<br />

4.5.4 AUTO (YES) /MANUAL switch<br />

The UC4 boom control system has two operational modes –<br />

AUTOMATIC (AUTO) and MANUAL. This toggle switch changes the<br />

operational mode of the system. In AUTOMATIC (AUTO) mode, the<br />

control panel will regulate the height of each boom to a predetermined set<br />

point. In MANUAL mode, the sprayer functions as if no automatic control<br />

system is present.<br />

When the system is in AUTO, the operator can override automatic control<br />

by operating the manual switches on the sprayer's boom controls (usually a<br />

joystick or multifunction handgrip).<br />

The "AUTO (YES)" switch also provides the alternate function "YES". In<br />

some instances the control panel may prompt the operator with a question<br />

that requires a yes or no response.<br />

4.5.5 POWER switch<br />

The power switch is located on the left side of the control panel. For safety<br />

reasons, the UC4 system always powers up in MANUAL mode.<br />

Consequently it is important to make sure that the power switch cannot be<br />

accidentally bumped during field operation.<br />
