detailed description of the SENSOR DISPLAY and SETUP menus, refer to Section 7 on page 22. 4.5.3 The " +/- " switch Use the " +/- " toggle switch to change various settings in each of the SETUP and SENSOR DISPLAY menus. Use the " +/- " switch to increment/decrement numerical entries. If the switch is held, the number will continue to automatically increase/decrease. If the selections for the menu item are to be picked from a list, this switch will present the next selection in the list. When in AUTOMATIC (AUTO) mode, use this switch to modify the control height set point. Not all menus allow the operator to change the setting with the " +/- " switch. Some menus are only for informational purposes. In a menu where a setting cannot be changed, the " +/- " switch is ignored. 4.5.4 AUTO (YES) /MANUAL switch The UC4 boom control system has two operational modes – AUTOMATIC (AUTO) and MANUAL. This toggle switch changes the operational mode of the system. In AUTOMATIC (AUTO) mode, the control panel will regulate the height of each boom to a predetermined set point. In MANUAL mode, the sprayer functions as if no automatic control system is present. When the system is in AUTO, the operator can override automatic control by operating the manual switches on the sprayer's boom controls (usually a joystick or multifunction handgrip). The "AUTO (YES)" switch also provides the alternate function "YES". In some instances the control panel may prompt the operator with a question that requires a yes or no response. 4.5.5 POWER switch The power switch is located on the left side of the control panel. For safety reasons, the UC4 system always powers up in MANUAL mode. Consequently it is important to make sure that the power switch cannot be accidentally bumped during field operation. 9
5 SYSTEM OPERATION This section outlines the UC4 system’s features and controls during field operation. Before you can operate your UC4 system in AUTO mode, it needs to be configured either automatically or manually. If your control panel shows the power up sequence below and will allow AUTO mode, it has been configured. If your panel shows different messages after being powered up or will not allow AUTO mode, it will attempt to begin or resume <strong>Automatic</strong> System Setup. Refer to Section 8 for System Setup instructions. 5.1 POWER UP SEQUENCE The LCD screen messages shown below are displayed temporarily when power is turned on to the UC4 control panel. Once the Normal Operating Screen is shown the system is ready to use.
