- 35 ENGLISH 13.3 DEFINITION OF TREATMENT The term treatment means the set of data recorded during an activity of weeding or sprayer. The working parameters recorded by GeoSystem are stored in a queue. The queue can store a maximum of 20. The data of each treatment can be visualized through the appropriate keys. Every time you start a new treatment the data of the current treatment are inserted in the queue. The treatment number 1 is the last treatment saved. Treatment number 2 is the second last treatment saved and so on. All treatments inserted in the queue slip of a position at the moment of every saving. When the queue is full, the recording of a new treatment causes the cancellation of the treatment less recent (that in twentieth position). After the treatment n° 20, appears the value “Total”, that refers to the historical data related to all the treatments. This value cannot be deleted, not even through the RESET procedure. 13.4 NEW TREATMENT 1 To start the recording of data on a new treatment, select a parameter of any work cycle, with the exception of the parameter: "Tank Level". 2 Press the key for 5 seconds. 3 By now, the counters are all reset. The parameter “Tank level” is a special parameter: If it is selected, the pressing of the button for 5 seconds DO NOT prepare the system for a new treatment but for a new filling of the tank.

If this value is not set up, the extension of the treated area cannot be calculated. If this parameter is not configured, the symbol “←→”” won’t be displayed . Instead of the current dosage value, appears the instant flow rate value (l/min). 12 During the execution, it is possible to temporary stop the calculation by pressing the key for 1 second. Press again the same key to reactivate the calculation. 13 At the starting, press simultaneously the keys to reset all the parameters of the indicator to the initial values. 13.6 TURNING OFF GeoSystem 200 1 Press the key in order to turn off the system. 2 Wait that the data of the last treatment will be saved. While switching off do not press any key and do not remove the power, until the control unit turns off. Always use the appropriate button to turn off the computer, otherwise all the data relating to treatments and schedules will be lost.

See paragraph current level of the tank. 3 To start the data recording of a new treatment, select a parameter of the any cycle work, with the exception of the parameter” tank level”. 4 The system store the treatment data in a queue of 20 elements. 5 Press for 5 seconds the key to save the last data stored in the queue and to reset all the meters, prearranging the data recording of the new treatment you will do. N.B. if level sensor is not present, pressing the key, you will reset all the working data, except the tank level that is recharged to the pre-set value during the configuration phase. The treatment data are stored only if you have set the parameter “connected sensor”= Flow+Speed or All sensors. 13.8 TANK REPLENISHMENT USING AN EXTERNAL PUMP This procedure is available only in the configurations “ Sensor present with flowmeter or level sensor”. 1 If the field to treat requires an amount of liquid higher than the amount of the tank, it will be necessary to fill once or more times the tank. 2 At every replenishment you have to update the tank level ( parameter: “Tank Level ”)

N.B: if the level sensor is not present, the pressure of the key will reset all the working data, except for the tank level which is reload to a pre-set value in configuration phase. USE 1 Automatic functioning of the system: GeoSystem 200 shows and records the speed, flow, travelled distance, treated area, amount of sprayed liquid values. TANK REPLENISHMENT 1 If the treatment requires more chemical substance than how the vehicle tank can contains, the operator has the possibility to supply the tank with liquid and to eventually modify the insert quantity. 2 If the level sensor is not present, you have to manually set the tank level data. In this case select the “level tank” data and, only in this case, press the key to modify the data which is reloaded at the pre-set value in configuration phase. TREATMENT VISUALIZATION 1 Press for 3 seconds the key to enter into the menu that allows to visualize the queue of the last 20 treatments. 2 Using the and key, it is possible to scroll up and down the treatment list.
