Ground Speed
The "GROUND SPEED" keypad allows the operator to see what speed the machine is moving. The "GROUND SPEED" information comes from the transmission speed sensor unless the machine is equipped with a ground speed sensor (radar unit), which gives true ground speed. For a machine not equipped with a radar unit the displayed ground speed is track speed. The minimum displayed ground speed is either 1.6 km/h or 1.0 mph. Speed below 1.6 km/h (1.0 mph) results in a zero being displayed. Ground speed using a ground speed sensor is based upon the correct installation and adjustment of the transmission speed sensor. See adjustment procedure in the Adjustment section of this manual.Percent Slip
Touch and release the percent slip pad "% SLIP" to display the percent of track slippage. This reading is based on the true ground speed compared to track speed (transmission output speed).The range of displayed slip value is 0% to 100%. If calculated slip value is negative, a "-0" is displayed.Due to the characteristics of the ground speed sensor, (characteristics necessary for reliable ground speed measurement over varying terrain), the measurement of slip does not begin until the track speed is 1.6 km/h (1.0 mph).If the ground speed sensor (radar unit) is not connected, or is connected but not working properly, "Err" is displayed after the "% SLIP" pad is depressed.To calibrate the "% SLIP" function, run the machine unloaded so that no track slip is present. During unloaded operation, hold the "% SLIP" pad down for five seconds. The display will go to zero. This action will calibrate the "% SLIP" reading to "zero" and compensate for possible mechanical or electrical tolerances in the drive train and monitoring system. If the "% SLIP" pad is held down for five seconds during actual slippage the displayed value will be considered "0" slippage from then on.Area Per Hour
The "AREA PER HOUR" function displays the amount of area covered in one hour. The units of area used are hectares per hour for International Measure and acres per hour for U.S. Customary operation."AREA PER HOUR" is calculated using ground speed and implement width. If a ground speed sensor (radar unit) is not present, track speed is used in place of ground speed.The "AREA PER HOUR" function and the "TOTAL AREA" function may be disabled in two ways. They can be disabled automatically, by the implement status switch, or manually with the Monitor.If an implement status switch is present and correctly adjusted, the "AREA PER HOUR" function will display a flashing "0.0" when the implement is raised.With an implement status switch installed, a raised implement will cause an open in the circuit and the "TOTAL AREA" function will be disable. A lowered implement will close the circuit and the "TOTAL AREA" function will be activated.If an implement status switch is not installed, a shorting plug (connector) must be installed to close the circuit to activate the accumulation of area function.The "AREA PER HOUR" and "TOTAL AREA" functions may be
