Problem

Cause

Solution

Incorrect Acre
Counting.

Incorrect swath

See “Swath Setup” in the Setup Section and Swath
Setting in the Operation Section for instructions.

Distance is not
counting correctly
(mph is incorrect).

See “Incorrect Distance and MPH” in this section.

Area

calibration

number is set
incorrectly

Press MENU, CAL and AREA to display the
AREA CAL number. This number should be set to
100 unless you have manually changed it to adjust
the total acres. If it is set to a different number, it
will count the percentage of acres the number
represents. Use the up/down arrow keys to adjust
the ACTUAL ACRES to the correct setting. Then
press PERFORM CAL key to correct the AREA
CAL number.
NOTE: Changing Actual Acres will change the
Area Cal number to a value other than 100, but
will correct the total acres for that field.

Distance and area
counting are not
activated.

Ensure the area count switch is in up position and
the stop height number is set high enough so that
when you lower the head, AREA ON appears in
the lower right corner of the display. See “Area
Count Always Off” in this section.

Incorrect Moisture
NOTE: There must be
grain flow to have a
moisture reading,
otherwise the reading will
always be 5 percent.

Moisture has not
been calibrated or the
calibration is
incorrect.

See “Calibrating Moisture” in the Calibration
Section.

Press MENU, CAL, MOISTURE, and ENTER
MOISTURE to display moisture calibration. The
Moisture Offset is normally between –8% and
+8%. If the offset is not between these values
calibrate moisture again.

If you have calibrated the moisture at very high
moistures (28% to 35%) and now are harvesting at
lower moistures, it may be difficult to find a
calibration offset number that is exactly correct for
both ranges of moisture. You should either choose
a calibration offset number that is close for both
ranges of moisture or set all the high moisture
loads to a separate grain type and enter a new
calibration offset number for that grain type.
