DAILY DATA COLLECTION

Insuring your data is secure from theft, fire or equipment failure requires a

small effort each day to store your data on a USB drive.

Indicator Memory

When powering up the NT 460 the memory percent full is shown on the

display. The NT 460 has enough memory to store approximately 400 loads

while sampling every ten seconds and unloading one load every nine

minutes.

It is recommended to download data from the NT 460 to the USB drive

before the memory is close to full. It takes just under five minutes to

download data when the memory is 25% full and under ten minutes when

50% full.

Mid-Season Name Changes

During the season, you may wish to delete and add field names or ID

names to your scale indicator memory. This may be done in one of two

ways.

Front Panel

For a small amount of changes, edit field names and ID names using the

keypad on the front panel. See page 8 and 10 to edit field names and ID

names. See page 24 to erase accumulator memory.

Upload New Field Names, ID Names and Accumulator Using USB Drive

For a large number of changes, perform the changes on your PC using

Nutrient Tracker

TM

software and then transfer the new information to the

indicator using a USB drive.
Before doing this, transfer your existing field accumulator data (acres

and weight) from the indicator to the USB drive and onto your PC. This

keeps the proper accumulator values on partially finished fields.
