Not familiar with Delta force but I have worked with other "override" switch setups.

Generally the trick is to use diodes so that the normal system doesn't back feed into the override circuit and also so the override circuit doesn't back feed to the normal system. Delta force may be more complicated than this though.

This shows the diode idea. Either source could power the load but not back feed the other. There would be a slight voltage drop (about 0.7 VDC) due to the diodes.


Our precision dealer wired a jumper plug on works 24 row from the power distribution module to the deltaforce hydraulic block with solenoids. It is just a 2 wire duesch plug that you unplug the stock wiring and plug this in to signal full lift. We then activate hydraulics to lift all 24 rows.

They highly recommend not using it except for "emergency " situations, have seen a few planters hung up crossing roads.


Since they suggest unplugging one and plugging in another this could be done with a Y adapter that contains a DPDT switch. One branch of the Y would go to the current Deutsch connector. The other branch of the Y would go to Power and ground. These wires would go to a Double Pole Double Throw switch which has 6 terminals. The output from the terminals would go to a Deutsch connector to go to Delta force. That way with the switch flipped one way the normal connections to Delta Force would be used for regular planting. Flipping the switch the other way would connect to Power/ground for Manual control for transport. This would be equivalent to unplugging one connector and plugging into the other but might be more convenient.

Since they say for "emergency use only" there may be some danger in overriding the system.
