Boom Level Changed by Operator During Automatic Operation<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 time between the sensor signal generation<br />

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

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

boom will remain at a fixed distance from the ground for<br />

spraying accuracy.<br />

If the sprayer operator should press a boom actuator<br />

switch while in automatic operation, the ECU energizes<br />

the necessary power switch relay and H--bridge relays<br />

to raise or lower the appropriate boom. The energized<br />

relay(s) provides a current path to the requested boom<br />

actuator to raise or lower the boom. The boom actuator<br />

will stay energized as long as the operator keeps the<br />

boom actuator switch pressed. The sonic boom light will<br />

flash as long as the boom actuator switch is pressed.<br />

If a boom is raised by the operator while the Sonic Boom<br />

System is in automatic operation, the boom will remain<br />

in the raised position until it is lowered halfway with the<br />

boom actuator switch to re--engage automatic sonic<br />

boom operation. If one boom is moved by the operator,<br />

the other boom continues to function automatically.<br />
