From the home screen, touch Tools, System, then Sprayer to access the Sprayer Screen.
Look Ahead
SmartBoom allows you to pre-program Turn-On and Turn-Off Look Ahead times. SmartBoom monitors
the GPS position and as-applied map while considering the Look Ahead times to begin turning
sections on or off before they cross spray or no spray boundaries. Look Ahead times can help
compensate for delays in the sprayer system including the time it takes for planter clutches to open
and close. The specific Look Ahead time is a function of the valve timing and the speed at which the
operator is driving the machine.
Percent Coverage
SmartBoom provides the ability to pre-define the amount of coverage SmartBoom will apply. For most
applications that require complete coverage, the Percent Coverage should be set to 100 percent. For
applications that will not tolerate overlap, the Percent Coverage should be set to a lower
value.SmartBoom allows a Percent Coverage value anywhere from 5 to 100 percent in increments of 5
percent.
SmartBoom Override
SmartBoom provides you the ability to momentarily override the SmartBoom feature and force all
boom sections on. This may be desired if you want to double up coverage on an area of the field. The
override feature is also used when starting off from a dead stop. Enable the SmartBoom Override
feature and allow the boom valves to open up before driving ahead. The amount of time for the
override can be modified to match your specific application needs.
