Subject: Field IQ Sprayer choosing Minimum Rate over Target Rate


Saddleworth & Kadina, South Australia

Hi All,

I have a XCN2050 working with a FIQ Rate & Section Control system running a liquid sprayer. We have the following settings:

Material Name - Spray
Rate 1 - 100L/ha
Rate 2 - 50L/ha
Minimum Rate - 20L/ha
Maximum Rate - 200L/ha

On screen
Target Rate shows - 20L/ha
Applied Rate shows - 20L/ha

Changed Settings to:

Material Name - Spray
Rate 1 - 100L/ha
Rate 2 - 50L/ha
Minimum Rate - 45L/ha
Maximum Rate - 200L/ha

On screen
Target Rate shows - 45L/ha
Applied Rate shows - 45L/ha

I have updated the XCN2050 display firmware from v4.3.2 to v4.5.1 to v4.6.2. - Issue is still present
Re-flashed the software on the following:
Rate & Section Control Module S/N 5414501625 from v3.20 to v3.20 even tried v4.13
Master Switch Box S/N 5407586509 from v3.06 to v3.06
12 Section Switch Box S/N 5508594857 from v3.06 to v3.06
Issue still present

I edited the Spray material and changed the minimum rate to 45L/ha. This then changed the target rate to 45L/ha and showed the applied rate to 45L/ha. This confirmed that the Target Rate is obtaining the information from the Minimum Rate and not the Target Rate.

I then deleted the material and created a new material and then assigned it - issue is still present. Thought there was a corruption to the material file.

I then deleted the implement and created a new implement & new material and then assigned it. Issue went away. Completed Flow & then Drive Calibration. Saved Implement Config file. Tested in field changed between Rate 1 & Rate 2 and the system changed from 100L/Ha to 50L/ha when toggling between Rate 1 & 2 on the Master Switch Box. A day later issue comes back.

I have also swapped out the Rate & Section Control Module, created new material & new implement - issue still present.

Any other ideas that might help shed some light on this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Chris
