Seed Hawk™ Viper Pro™ Installation & Operation Manual

Liquid Valves

Depending upon the number of sections configured on the Drill Setup screen (see the Drill Setup section on

page 110), liquid products may be applied in a single section or four sections across the implement width. To

allow the SCT Ready system to automatically control liquid product application by sections, be sure the liquid

valves settings are selected for each section and the section switches on the Seed Hawk switch box are set to

the SCT position.

Section Control Aggressiveness Factor

The look-ahead values set the amount of time ahead of the vehicle (based on vehicle speed) which the Viper

Pro will scan for zone boundaries or un-applied areas when turning sections on or off. By default, SCT

overrides any additional zone boundaries detected until the look-ahead time has passed. For example, if the

turn-on look-ahead value is set to 5 seconds and SCT Ready detects an un-applied area 5 seconds ahead of a

section, the system toggles that section on and will ignore subsequent commands to turn that section off for the

next 5 seconds until the section has entered the un-applied area.

For sections at the end of larger sections or where sharp turns or aggressive maneuvering is necessary, this

override may cause unexpected skips in coverage. The aggressiveness factor uses the user defined look-

ahead values to adjust SCT response for these driving styles and/or field areas requiring aggressive

maneuvering when crossing apply zones.

The section control aggressiveness factor adds a percentage of the current turn-on or turn-off look-ahead

setting to the time which SCT overrides subsequent zone boundaries.

To set the SCT aggressiveness:

1.

Press the Section Status Area on the main screen.

2.

From the Section Control Setup screen, press Next until the Section Control Aggressiveness screen is

displayed.

3.

Select the desired aggressiveness setting to match the operator driving style or requirements.

4.

Touch OK to accept the aggressiveness factor setting and return to the main screen.
