CAUTION: When traveling at a speed slower than the GSO speed setting, this feature will cause the Product to be
applied at a Rate consistent with the GSO speed, rather than the true ground speed, possibly resulting in serious
over application. When Ground Speed Override is being used, and the true ground speed is less than the pre-selected
“GSO” Speed, the console will sound an alarm and the display will flash a “Too Slow” message to warn the opera-
tor of possible over application.

2.11. SETTING AUTO POWER DOWN TIME

The console has an "Auto Power Down" feature which powers the console off after an operator selectable period (default
is 30 min) has elapsed. If no input is received from the speed sensor or any console switch during this time the APD
feature is activated. The APD time can be set from 15 to 60 minutes. Selecting a period less than 15 minutes disables the
APD feature.

A. Use the following switch settings to adjust the Auto Power down time:

Power

OFF

Mode selector

SET-UP

Display selector

% Rate

Hold the INC switch

UP while turning the power on

The display will show the current Auto Power Down time.

B. Select the desired time using the INC/DEC switch.

C. Exit this set-up mode by moving the Display Selector to another position, the Mode Selector to OPERATE, or

turning the console OFF and back ON.

NOTE: The “Auto Power Down Feature is only available on the CE version of the console (CE designation label on back
of console). If you have the standard console model always turn the console power off when not in use to prevent
unnecessary drain on the battery.

2.12 REFLOW MODE

2.12.1. DESCRIPTION

The TASC Reflow Option changes the standard method of accumulating total volume applied. In the Reflow condition,
the TASC Control Console can automatically, and accurately, accumulate total volume applied through a reflow sprayer
(reference the reflow sprayer plumbing diagram in the appendix). In a reflow sprayer, the mixed product that ordinarily
would be sprayed is diverted back to the suction side of the main pump whenever an individual boom section is deacti-
vated. The Reflow Option allows the TASC Control Console to adjust the flowmeter calibration constant in proportion to
the amount of flow actually escaping through the spray boom. When this adjustment is made, the calculation of total
applied volume remains accurate.

The adjustment is described as follows:

Adjusted Cal # = (TOTAL BOOM WIDTH) / (SELECTED BOOM WIDTH) X (Cal #)

Whenever boom sections are brought on or off line, the TASC Control Console will adjust both the injection pump
metering rates and the flowmeter calibration number in order to maintain the proper application rate, and an accurate
measure of the total volume of material applied.
