Multi-function Drill Control

38a

Monitor

The multi-function drill monitor controls the operation and tramlining function of pneumatic type seed drills.

The instrument has an illuminated 4 digit display with 6 display functions and alarm functions for forward
speed, fan rpm and seed distribution shaft rpm. The speed and area functions can be displayed in either
metric or imperial units.

The instrument indicates:

Forward Speed (plus low speed alarm)

Part Area and Total Area worked

The current bout number and tramline bouts for the selected tramlining sequence.

Fan rpm (plus low/high speed alarm)

Seed Distribution Shaft rpm (plus low speed alarm)

Hopper level low

The tramlining function is the priority display. The instrument will default to this channel display 10 seconds
after selecting another display function (with the exception of displaying an area total or when the drill is out of
work).

It has two memory registers (Total 1 and Total 2) to record area worked. The area is accumulated to both
memory registers. Area totals and all calibration data are automatically stored in memory when the instrument
is powered off.

The instrument must be initially calibrated to suit the implement being controlled. Three program modes allow
the default settings to be altered as required. Most of these settings do not need to be accessed in normal
use.
