Wireless Seed Monitoring System - High precision seed count and fertilizer rate monitoring for air drills. As a milestone of ambitious developments during last years, a totally new concept seed monitoring system have been created. The SeedView intuitive App supplies so much valuable information to farmers, how their seeder performs, as never before. Horizontal distribution of seeds are demonstrated through row by row bar graphs display. Distributor head performances are compared and displayed with superb visibility. Close to 100% seed count accuracy enables to set the exact seed rate value on your machine. XeedSystem integrates the latest technologies: the standard-setting BlackEye Seed Sensors are able to count fast moving seeds in hoses and also detect granular fertilizer flow. The RAVEN Blockage Module wireless gateway with the new long range Bluetooth 4.0 wireless communication forwards data to display on iPad or any ISOBUS Virtual Terminal. A new approach of seed blockage sensing enables differentiation between intent seed rate changes (e.g. VRA - variable rate applications) and eventual blockages on air seeders. This eliminates the often annoying false alarms that came when the seeder ground speed or the application rate was changing. Only real blockages are alarmed within 1 second, even in case of the smallest seeds. Developing blockage processes are also alarmed thanks to the unique and patent pending self calibration of sensor sensitivity. Shut-off rows can remain free from false alarms when shut-off system is connected to blockage sensors. Features: • Display of application rate in two measures: seed/m2 and kg/ha • Seeding performance measurement (likewise planter singulation) • Fan r.p.m numeric display with high/low alarms • Hopper/Bin level graphic display with alarms • Field management • Multi-user management • User work performance statistics • Field statistics • Bluetooth 4.0 communication up to 150 meters • Intuitive user interface • Easy system installation • Accurate seed counting (e.g.: wheat 200kg/ha @ 15km/h) • No false blockage alarm at headlands or changing ground speeds • VRA (Variable Rate) independent blockage monitoring • Blockage - Seeding - Not Seeding status detection within 1 second • Excellent oilrape seed/canola detection • Intelligent Sensitivity Calibration • Intelligent Dust Compensation • Field programmable modules - easy software update Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
