Offering options for in-cab use during operation as well as on the air cart for calibration . In-cab keypad user assignable buttons control multiple functions : implement lift / lower , increase rate / down force pressure , auto / manual for liquid tanks and more . On-frame keypad can be used for functions outside of calibration such as priming tanks ( proportional drive granular only ) and lifting or lowering the drill .
Multiple calibration methods
• Manual – Used when operator knows what the calibration factor is
• Automatic – Calibration Wizard calculates factor on single or multiple tanks
• Area Test – Simulates running on a user-selectable area allowing operator to check that the correct amount of product has been metered out
• Weight-based – Starting with a known amount of product in tank , once empty , enter actual weight remaining and Apollo adjusts calibration factor
