  16. Row Monitoring Only

  17. 3 Components of Field-IQ • Cab Kit • Platform Kit • Control kit

  18. Architecture

  19. Module Power • All Modules have 3 Power sources. Module must have power to all 3 sources to be recognized by display • A1 PWR / A3 GND - “Clean” Power for the ecu • B1 PWR / B3 GND - Power for control components (“dirty power”) • F1 Relay PWR / F3 Relay GND - Signal power to turn system on and off. These run next to the CAN wires

  20. Variable Rate and Section Control Components forPlanting Field-IQ Technical Training

  21. Why Planter Control? • Control seeding rate - flat rate seed or VRA. Takes the guess work out of setting up planter transmission. • Section control - eliminate wasted seed. • Variety Tracking • Seed tube monitoring – view planter performance down to the row.

  22. Rate Control, PWM • Found standard on most hydraulic drive planters • CNH, White, Kinze, Deere • Most popular/cost effective hydraulic drive 22

  23. Feedback Sensor • Shaft Speed Sensor • Counts shaft revolutions • Sends feedback to Field-IQ rate control module • 360 pulse per rev needed for planters • Make sure mounting has flexibility

  24. PWM Variable Rate Drive PWM Builds Hydraulic Pressure Charges Coil to Allow More/Less Flow to Motor Hydraulic Pump Opens/Closes Valve to let More/Less Flow through to Motor FLOW Control Valve Uses Flow from Control Valve to Turn Sprocket Hydraulic Motor Feedback Feedback Required! • Plumbing Schematic 24

  25. 3.0 ci Rawson • Launched in 1984 • Reputation for reliability • No need for feedback sensor • First to use GPS in 90’s

  26. Rawson Hydraulics • Requires 3 hoses • 1. Pressure hose ½ SAE 100R2 Rated Hose • 1. Return hose ½ SAE 100R2 Rated Hose • 1. Zero pressure return ¼ SAE 100R1 Rated Hose. • DO NOT run more than 1500 PSI single drive setup • ALWAYS use an orifice

  27. A single drive for a piston pump will use the 329110 orifice • Single drive gets the 329110 orifice. • Dual drive in parallel both need 329110 orifices. • Three drive in parallel uses 329107 in all three drives • Dual drives in series, only the first drive gets 329110 orifice, second one does not. • Three drives in series uses 329110 and only the first drive in series gets the orifice and the other two do not get orifices. Orifices screws down in the port marked “P” on the drive.

  28. Section Control Tru Count Air Clutch • Capable of single row control • Flexible section configuration • Available for most planter models • Controlled by FmX, CFX or EZ Boom with EZ Guide • Tru Count Electric Clutch • Used for larger section control on Planters and Seeders Can also run JD electric clutches when installed on supported Field-IQ planters.

  29. TruCount Components Air Compressor 85-105 PSI Pulls 17-20 Amps Air Tank 1.6 Gallons Can Control 16 Rows Valve Box Runs 4 Sections Lines can be T’d to run Multiple Rows

  30. Seed Monitoring Field IQ Technical Training

  31. Population Monitoring • Monitor the population of the seed as it passed through sensor. • Monitoring is not a control function. If population is low the system will not adjust the rate. • (If planter is operating perfectly rate and population should match) • Will also monitor blockage sensors.

  32. Seed Monitoring Required Components • 1 SMM per 24 rows to be monitored. • Either a CT (Computrac) harness also known as John Deere Style or a PM (Dickey John) harness. • Supported seed tubes. Basically any (Non CAN ) 3 wire seed sensor is supported. • Always check with Support or Partners if unsure about seed tubes.

  34. Planter Control: Component Questions

  35. Field IQ Liquid Flow (NH3, liquid strip till)

  36. Why Rate and Section Control? • Rate control - ensure proper rate is applied as speed varies. • Section control – minimize overlap. Prevent sprayer from spraying into area features such as water ways and boundaries. • Monitor amount of product applied in field.

  37. Servo Variable Rate Control • Found standard on most pull type sprayers, planters w/ liquid fertilizer and other liquid control applicators • Most popular/cost effective way to control flow of liquid 37

  38. Rate Control, PWM • Found standard on most self propelled sprayers • Most popular/cost effective hydraulic drive 38

  39. Feedback Sensor • Flow Meter • Computes flow of liquid via pulses from magnetic wheel. • Flowmeter must be sized correctly for flow ratings of applicator. • This serves as a starting point for the calibration process • Each Meter will have a Specific Flow calibration number

  40. Rawson Par 2 with Liquid Pump • Replace ground drive with Rawson • Know liquid output of pump per revolution • Know gear ratio from Rawson to pump • Perform calibration catch test

  41. Servo Variable Rate Drive Servo Builds Water Pressure Rotates Ball to Allow More/Less Flow to Motor Water Pump Opens/Closes Valve to let More/Less Flow through to Output FL ow Control Valve Feedback Required! Flow Meter (Feedback) Uses Flow from Control Valve to Variable Rate Liquid Output • Plumbing Schematic 41

  42. PWM Variable Rate Drive PWM Builds Hydraulic Pressure Charges Coil to Allow More/Less Flow to Motor Hydraulic Pump Opens/Closes Valve to let More/Less Flow through to Motor Control Valve Flow Uses Flow from Control Valve to Turn product pump Product pump Feedback Feedback Required! • Plumbing Schematic 42

  43. Bypass Servo Variable Rate Drive Servo controls amount of flow going back to tank Servo Flow Meter Pump Tank Boom Valves • Plumbing Schematic 43

  44. Flow Control Key Points • FIELD-IQ DOES NOT CONTROL PRESSURE! All flow control systems are just that. Flow control systems. (Some systems have a minimum pressure that they will try to maintain, this is not used to control rate) • Pressure is a byproduct of resistance to flow. • If you cannot get proper pressure at the flow that you prefer, check your nozzle size! • Application Rate is calculated from system flow and speed.

  45. Rules for Flow Control: • The range of flow is directly related to the spray nozzle you use! • Example: To double the flow, you must quadruple pressure if using the same size nozzle. To cut flow rate by half, you must reduce by a factor of 4. • If you cannot get proper pressure at the flow that you prefer, check your nozzle size!

  46. Rules for Flow Control: • Always calibrate the flow meter after installation and at the start of every season. • Flow meter calibration affects how the system thinks that it is working. • If the system is physically capable of obtaining a rate, but flow meter calibration is incorrect, system will not only apply the wrong rate, it may fail to operate at all.
