5. Resolve Any Possible Errors

When the Muxbus Detection Process begins, each row unit will display “N/A” (Not Available) underneath
the status. But as the Muxbus Detection process takes place, each row unit should state “Calibrating” for a
time, then should indicate “OK”. After calibration, the sensor status displays either one of two different
states:

OK - The sensor is working and is communicating at 9600 baud.

Slow - The sensor is working, but is communicating at 2400 baud.

Note: Some older KPM I, II, and III systems have slower sensors with black connectors, that communicate
at a 2400 baud rate. The KPM I, II and III systems with blue connectors communicate at a 9600 baud rate. A
slower baud rate does not result in decreased performance.

6. The display beeps once when the row unit sensor is plugged in, and will beep again when calibration
is complete.

7. Detect Complete

When the Muxbus Detection process is complete, a message displays, stating “All sensors found”.

The Sensor Information screen displays hardware
information for each seed tube sensor and also each
seed sensor. Technical support may request that
you look at this window for help in diagnosing a
problem.

• ID
a unique number for each sensor on the muxbus.

• Serial Number
varies for each individual unit of seed sensor and seed
tube sensor.

• Model Number
shared by each unit of the same model of seed tube
sensor.

• Baud Rate
the speed of transmission between the muxbus sensor and the PMM module.
