About this manual and its pictures
How to read this manual — signal words, access levels, button presses — and what in the pictures belongs to the test bench and not to your machine.
How to read this manual
- NOTE — extra information, for example a capability you may not know of.
- IMPORTANT, CAUTION, WARNING — information that costs work, a crop or a part if you ignore it.
- A parameter that is visible only above the “Operator” level says so — see Access levels.
- Press means a short touch of a button; hold means a touch held until the panel reacts, about half a second.
- Labels in quotes, such as “Settings”, are written exactly as the English panel shows them.
The pictures
The screens are real frames from a Hectare Mini panel with firmware 2.2.8, mostly shot on a test bench instead of a machine in the field. Some belong to an earlier firmware; where the layout differs, the text describes 2.2.8. A few things in them belong to the bench:
| What you see in a picture | Why it is there | What your panel shows instead |
|---|---|---|
| A blue hours:minutes in the clock slot, or TRIAL | The bench panel runs on a trial licence. | The time of day — see Clock. |
| Yellow IMITAT in the clock slot | The bench runs in an imitation mode. | The time of day. |
| A yellow speed figure, or IMITATION | The speed is imitated — no wheel turns on a bench. | The measured speed in white. |
| Red hoppers, red dispenser shafts, a red fan with XXXX | The bench has no product, no shafts turning and no fan connected. | Grey indicators while everything is in order. |
| Zeros on the Statistics screen and the Seeding table | The bench was standing still. | Your figures. |
Where an English picture is still missing, the page shows "Picture to follow"; the text says everything the picture would show. The German pages show the German frame in its place.
