Terms used in this manual
The words of the Hectare Mini manual in one place — from active field and alarm level to singulation, spacing and tramline rhythm.
| Term | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Active field | The field the panel writes its statistics to now, marked (A). Start a new field |
| Alarm level | In the “Flow” mode: the flow in seeds per second under which a line counts as failing. Drawn as the control line. Set the alarm level |
| Bout | One pass of the drill across the field. Set up the tramline rhythm |
| Context menu | The menu of one device, opened in the sensor setup mode. Interface basics |
| Control line | The white line across a diagram: the alarm level or the target rate drawn. |
| Doubles | Two seeds where one was intended, as a share. |
| Flow, Hybrid, Precise | The three control modes of a diagram. Flow: seeds per second against an alarm level. Hybrid: seeds per metre against a target rate. Precise: seeds per metre with skips, doubles and quality. The section diagram |
| In control / out of control | Whether the panel watches a sensor. A sensor out of control raises no alarms. Take a sensor into or out of control |
| Lock (work pause) | Product application stopped by hand: motors and pump stand still. Lock application by hand |
| Population | Seeds per hectare, shown in thousands (ks/Ha). Derived from the rate, the working width and the number of rows. |
| Product | A material applied by weight, in kg/ha. Up to three: “Product 1” to “Product 3”. |
| Profile | The list of the devices of the machine, set at commissioning. The profile |
| Quality (singulation) | The share of seeds placed singly, as intended — what is left after doubles and skips. |
| Rate field | The figures beside a diagram: measured on top, set value below. |
| Recalculation interval | The stretch of path (or time without a speed sensor) over which skips, doubles, quality and rate are collected before they are shown anew. Set by “Recalculation,m”. A short interval answers quickly but fluctuates; a long one is steadier. |
| Rhythm | The number of bouts and which device shuts off on which bout. |
| Section, line | One seed or fertilizer line with its own sensor: one column of the diagram. |
| Sensor setup mode | The mode in which one device is selected to be switched or set. Hold “MENU”. |
| Skips | A gap where a seed was intended, as a share. Not sown counts the skips over stretches where nothing was sown at all. |
| Spacing | The distance between seeds — the rate per metre turned round. |
| Target rate | What you set: seeds per metre (“Hybrid”, “Precise”), kg/ha (products), L/ha (liquid). The population target follows from it and is not meant to be changed during the field. |
| Tramline | The lane left unsown for the sprayer. Next tramline bout |
| Unknown area | Area driven while a sensor had no connection or was out of control. |
