4. MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING
Your sowing control console is mostly an electronic device. Therefore it requires to be cared for. After sowing, store it in dry
premises.
Symptoms
1. The console does not
switch on. The diodes do
not light up upon power
on.
2.
A diode is not lit
during the initial phase
after power-on.
3. When sowing, the
diodes most too the right
are lit red (with alarm
buzzer) whereas there is
no cell on these rows.
4. A diode is inoperative
during sowing, it stays
off continuously.
5.
When sowing all
diodes programmed are
lit
red
(with
alarm
buzzer)
6.
A diode remains lit
red during sowing, the
alarm
buzzes
continuously while the
seeder
element
dispenses
the
grains
properly.
7.
All diodes on the
console are lit during the
initialisation phase after
power-on, but no grain is
detected
(no
flashing
diode)
Disconnect the console power supply before performing any welding operation on the tractor or the seeder to prevent the
system from being damaged.
Probable cause
-The
supply
harness
disconnected
-Battery supplying insufficient
voltage.
-The fuse has blown.
-The console is faulty.
- The console is faulty.
-The
number
of
rows
exceeds the actual number of
rows
-Monitoring of the cell was
disabled in the menu setting
the number of rows
-The alarm threshold value is
too high
-The sensor of the sowing
element is faulty.
-Connection problem between
the sensor and the harness, or
between the harness and the
console.
-The sensor or electric harness
has intermittent faults.
-The seeder harness is not
connected properly.
-The seeder harness is faulty.
(short-circuit)
-A sensor is faulty.
-The console is faulty.
is
-Check it is connected to the tractor's 3-pin outlet or the battery
(check that the lugs are clean and crimped properly).
-Check that the battery voltage ranges between 10 and 15
Volts.
-Check the fuse located on the console's supply harness.
Replace it if necessary by a 5 AMPERE fuse. Never fit a fuse
with higher amperage. If the fuse blows again, contact our
after-sales service.
-Call our after-sales service.
-Call our after-sales service.
set
-In the menu setting the number of rows, set as many diodes
as there are rows. Disable monitoring for the non-existent
rows.
- In the menu setting the number of rows, enable the diodes
corresponding to the cells to monitor.
-Reduce the value of the alarm threshold
-Clean the sensor's photoelectric cells properly with a brush. If
required, use water and a product to remove the film of sowing
treatment product deposited on the photoelectric cells.
-Check that all connectors are connected properly.
-Check that the electric harness is not pinched, worn or torn.
Swap the sensor indicating a fault with that of another row. If
the problem follows, the sensor is the cause of the fault. If the
problem does not follow, the harness or console is the cause
of the fault.
-Check that the connector of the console, seeder and the
connectors of the sensors are connected properly.
-Check that the electric harness is not pinched, worn or torn.
Check that the sensor wires are not pinched, worn or torn.
-Call our after-sales service.
-Call our after-sales service.
