Subject: RE: Greenstar Dry Rate Controller Section Clutches


Near Intersection of I-35 & I-90 Southern Mn.
I should stay out of this one, but most section control devices that I have experience with use electricity or air to disengage or STOP a section from planting or applying. The idea is that the sections will remain engaged if a fault should occur. Also for normal application where all sections are being used requires no electricity or air.

With an Ag Leader Clutch Control Module at least, this is the normal expectation. When used with a clutch system where 12V is needed to engage rather than disengage, a relay with a Normally Closed terminal can be used to reverse the action. The Ag Leader Clutch Control module only affects which sections are allowed or disallowed to be engaged, it has nothing to do with the application rate. That is handled by ground drive or another module controlling an orbit motor.

As an example, with my Deere planter, the seed shafts are still driven by the original ground drive transmission. The Clutch Module controls the clutches on the row units.

This may not pertain to your situation and only confuse your issue.
