NORAC UC5-BC-VT - Manual (Page 11)

8
5 Operation
5.1 Initial Start Up
On the initial start up, after confirming the legal disclaimer, a screen will appear informing the
operator that an Automatic Setup must be performed. After confirming this screen, the
Automatic Setup will begin (Section Error! Reference source not found.). The Automatic
Setup reminder at startup will also be shown each time a firmware update is performed.
5.2 Main Run Screen
The majority of functional settings and controls can be accessed on the NORAC UC5 main run
screen. An image of the boom, with the height of each boom section is displayed.
To change between Automatic and Manual Mode, select the corresponding “AUTO” or
“MANUAL” button. When the UC5™ system is in Automatic Mode, the “AUTO” button and
the line under the top right boom section are green. When the “MANUAL” button is green
and the line under the top right boom section is black and dotted, the system is in Manual
Mode. If the boom is above normal working height (typically 80 inches/205 cm), a warning
message will appear requiring the boom to be lowered before allowing Automatic Mode to be
activated. The normal working height is customized for each sprayer type so it may not be 80
inches (205 cm) on all sprayers.
Figure 2: Over Height Warning
When the UC5™ Spray Height Control system is in Automatic Mode, arrows will appear on
the screen above or below the boom sections. These arrows indicate the UC5™ is making a
correction to part of the boom in the displayed direction. Often times the correction will be
very small and there may not be a noticeable change in boom position.
