X20 Sprayer Reference Manual
Guidance Sections
The Guidance sections are displayed on the Guidance screen and
are used to produce the Coverage map. The Guidance sections are
also used by Guidance to know how many sections are used by
Auto Section Control (ASC).
Enter in the number of section valves on the primary line.
Valves
Hardi Sprayers require special hardware to operate. When fitting
the Sprayer controller to an existing Hardi Sprayer, it needs to cater
for their balanced valves.
Balanced valves, when closed, bypass the flow back to the tank
instead of just stopping it. However, the flow back to tank is being
calculated by the X20 console, therefore the system needs to know
when all the section valves are switched OFF; the signal pulses
from the Flow Meter are ignored.
Select Balanced when connecting the TPA system to a Hardi type
Sprayer with Balanced valves.
Nozzles
Total
The total number of nozzles fitted on the primary line can be
entered here. This number is used to calculate an average flow
rate per nozzle which can be displayed on the Working screen.
The number of nozzles is also used to calculate the Minimum
Flow.
The number of nozzles should be the number of primary line
nozzles only, with the nozzle count for each section entered into
the appropriate section.
