ICM Operation
When the vehicle
ignition is first switched on all segments of both displays will come
on momentarily as it goes through its own test procedure. It will
then display the same function that was selected last time it was
switched off. All internal accumulated data and programmed data is
stored in the instrument memory whether it is connected to a power
supply or not.
Please refer to
the diagram on the previous page when reading the following instructions.
1/
Engine speed Press this button for the
engine speed to be displayed in the LH window. The chevron in the
bottom of the window will indicate that this function has been selected.
Engine
overspeed warning
Should the maximum
recommended engine speed be exceeded, (normally 4,000 rpm) the LH
display will flash with the engine speed and an audible buzzer will sound.
Air
conditioning cut-out
The ICM provides
an output which is connected to the air conditioning system and the
light load advance system on the fuel injection pump. This cuts the
air conditioning out at engine speeds below 1700 rpm and activates
the light load advance to reduce exhaust emmisions.
2/
PTO speed Press this button for the PTO
speed to be displayed in the LH window. The small chevron in the
bottom of the display window will indicate that this function has
been selected.
PTO
overspeed warning
Should the maximum
recommended PTO speed be exceeded, (normally 575 rpm) the LH display
will flash with the PTO speed and an audible buzzer will sound.
3/
Total area covered Press this button for
accumulated area to be displayed in the LH window. The small chevron
in the bottom of the display window will indicate that this function
has been selected. The instrument is normally connected to the
sprayer or spreader master on/off control so that the area will only
accumulate when is in work. When the sprayer/spreader is off the
small chevron indicator in the bottom of the display will flash. When
switched on it is steady to show the instrument is recording. The
automatic cut-out can also be over-ridden manually (see below).
4/
Part area This operates the same as total
area. The two area meters allow one to be used to check the area
covered for each tank load or field whilst the other can be used to
check the area covered over a day or any other period of time. Either
area meter can be reset to zero at any time. (see below)
5/
Distance travelled This operates exactly
the same as total & part area and will measure distance covered
in miles or Km
6/
Hours worked Press this button to display
the accumulated time (in hours) worked in the LH display window. It
can be reset to zero whenever required (see below).
