Sprayer Operation on Level Turf<br />

During sprayer operation with the sonic boom switch in<br />

the automatic position (sonic boom light is illuminated),<br />

the boom mounted sonic boom sensors continually<br />

send impulse signals and then receive echos as the signals<br />

bounce off the turf. The electronic control unit<br />

(ECU) determines the sensor distance from the ground<br />

based on the elapsed time between the sensor signal<br />

generation and the received echo. As long as the sensor<br />

height remains the same as the calibrated height, the<br />

spray boom will remain at a fixed height from the ground<br />

for spraying accuracy.<br />

Sonic Boom<br />

System<br />

On level turf, the boom sensors continually send signals<br />

and receive echoes that determine that the booms sections<br />

are at the calibrated height. Thus, there is no need<br />

to change boom height. The boom actuators will not be<br />

energized and the boom sections remain at the correct,<br />

level position.<br />
