The following table discusses the alarms and the conditions that will set off an alarm for products 1 through 3.

Alarm

Condition

Off Rate

This alarm activates when the actual application rate differs from the specified percentage

rate for more than five seconds, This alarm activates only when the system is in Auto mode.

The alarm automatically clears when the target rate and actual rate are within the specified

range or when the product mode is switched to either Manual or Off.

Low Tank

This alarm activates when the tank volume has dropped below the specified limit. The alarm

can be cleared when you either enter a value that is above the low tank value or when you

enter a zero in the Low Tank field.

Vac/Bin

For an injection application, the Vac alarm is active. This alarm activates when the vacuum

sensor detects a vacuum in the tank. You must troubleshoot the system to determine the

cause of the alarm and clear it. For a granular application, the Bin alarm is active. This alarm

activates when the bin level sensor detects that the granular level in the bin drops below the

sensor.

Fan Limit

This alarm is activated when one or both of the fans on the air cart has exceeded the high

rpm fan limit.

Zero Pressure

The zero pressure alarm is displayed if one or more air cart bins has lost pressure. Be sure

that the bin covers are in place and secure to repressurize the bins.

Zero Speed

This alarm activates when the speed of the vehicle drops below 0.7 MPH and the Zero

Speed Shutoff function is enabled. Cycle the master switch to clear the alarm and resume

product control.

Seed Gate Position

If the position of one or more of the seed gates does not correspond to the section switch or

product switch on the Seed Hawk switch box, the Viper Pro will display a warning. Make

sure that the seed gates are able to open and close properly. Note: An SCT node must be

on the CANbus for the Viper Pro to detect or display this alarm condition.

Ultrasonic Failure

This alarm is activated If no signal is received from the ultrasonic sensor in one or more air

cart bins.

Low Fan Limit

This alarm will activate if one or both fans drop below the desired low fan RPM limit.
Note: If the fan alarm is enabled, the seed gates and master clutch will not activate unless

the fan RPM is above the low limit to prevent plugging seed tubes if the fan is not providing

enough air flow to move product.

one full revolution.
