Press CAL DRIVE key and press START key. (Use
caution, planter will run for 5 turns of the hydraulic
drive).

Count seeds and rerun drive to find a true average value.

Number of rows – Drive A: Set to number of rows controlled
by Drive A.
Number of rows – Drive B: Set to number of rows controlled
by Drive B.
Number of rows – Drive C: Set to number of rows controlled
by Drive C.
Actual Rate Source: Normally set to DRIVE RPM. Set to
SEED MANGR if want to get the rate from a Seed Manager or
Vanguard planter monitor.
Jump start speed: Suggested setting is 2 mph. When the
planter is down and you take off from a stationary position,
move the drive switch to the jump start position. The Pro sets
the ground speed to the jump start speed setting until speed
from radar gets above the jump start speed.
Maximum drive RPM: Set to 300 rpm unless otherwise
advised. The Pro will not let the drive rpm get above this
setting. A message “SLOW DOWN!!” will be displayed every
time the maximum rpm is reached.
Manual speed: Set this to your average speed if you are using
manual speed in place of your radar gun.
Manual speed: Normally this should be set to OFF. The only
reason to set this to ON is if you can not get ground speed from
your radar gun or you want to run the drive in a stationary
position.
