ESSAGES

The OptRx Crop Sensors have error messages to inform the user of complications in communication
and performance. The following error messages are the most common ones. Follow the recommended
troubleshooting steps to correct these errors.

Error Message: “Sensor Lost Communication”

Possible Cause: The cabling between the OptRx sensor and the ACS Master Module is

disconnected.

Solution: Check all connections and cables for disconnections, cuts, breaks, or crimps in

the line.

Error Message: “Bad Data”

Possible Cause: The sensors are either too far from the crop or too close to the crop.

Solution: Adjust the height of the sensor to approximately 30 inches (76 cm.) above the

crop canopy by adjusting the boom height or the height on the crop sensor bracket

Error Message: “Sensor Failure”

Possible Cause: The sensors are either too far from the crop or too close to the crop.

Solution: Adjust the height of the sensor to approximately 30 inches (76 cm.) above the

crop canopy by adjusting the boom height or the height on the crop sensor bracket.

Error Message: “Sensor Failure”

Possible Cause: There has been a drop in voltage to the OptRx Crop Sensors.

Solution: Check voltage on the high current power cable to ensure voltage provided to the

sensors is approximately 12 V.

Error Message: “Too Few Sensors for Application”

Possible Cause: The OptRx configuration must have at least two working sensors to make an N

rate recommendation.

1) There has been a drop in voltage to the OptRx Crop Sensors, or

2) The OptRx Crop Sensor is not detecting communication from the OptRx Crop Sensor Module

Solution: Perform the following actions, depending upon the possible cause of the error:

If 1), check cabling.

If 2), check the OptRx Diagnostic screen to determine if the OptRx Crop Sensors are still

communicating.
