- Begin by entering a number into your (CIRC) speed calibration position. Follow manual instructions on how to enter calibration mode
- Don't be concerned about the accuracy of this number, any number other than zero will work
- Exit the calibration mode
- Put unit in "hold" or turn your booms off
- Turn your rotary switch to (or press) the distance position
- Reset your distance by holding the reset button or by holding pressing on the distance position for 4 seconds
- Place the console in the run (on) mode
- Drive a known measured distance (1,000 feet), placing the console in hold the second your cross the end mark
- Adjust the displayed distance on console to match the measured distance. If these numbers already match, no adjustment is required
- Enter the calibration mode and confirm your boom width values are entered correctly. Example: correct number of booms (zero any unused boom positions), entered in inches (meters)
- Exit calibration mode
- Turn rotary switch to (push) total acre position and reset to zero
- With console in the run (on) position, drive a known measured distance (1,000 feet), placing the console in hold the second you cross the end mark
- Calculate what your acres should have counted by using the following equation: Acres=Distance (1,000) * Width (inches) / 43,560
- Assuming your speed calibration is correct and your boom widths are entered correctly, your totals should match
- First get a 9-volt transistor battery
- Unplug the Servo Valve from your main wiring harness
- NOTE: only two of the three openings in the connector on the top of the Servo Valve have terminals
- Place a small wire in each of the two female terminals on the Servo Valve connector
- With good metal-to-metal contact from wire to terminal, place the 9-volt battery posts on the two wires. Don't be concerned about the positive or negative
- This should cause the Servo Valve to either open or close
- Reversing the battery should create the opposite action on the Servo Valve
- Begin by checking the battery connections for broken wires, corrosion, blow fuse, etc.
- Assuming the connections are good and fuse(s) are OK, test for power at the next connection in the power harness. NOTE: this may be right at the back of the console
- ALL Micro-Trak Systems Inc. products operate on a standard vehicle electrical voltage. A voltage 13.9 Volts DC should be present with the engine running
- Use an accurate volt meter either digit or analog to measure the voltage
- If after testing all possible scenarios the console fails to turn on, have the unit serviced by a certified Micro- Trak Systems Inc. repair center
- Confirm that your console is turned on
- Verify that you have your boom switches turned on
- Check console's master switch, should be in the Manual mode
- Double check to make sure your console isn't in the Auto mode (those with push buttons)
- Check your ground connections both at the Shut-off valves and across the hitch
- Measure the voltage at the valves to confirm you have a minimum of 12 volts present
