1. Ensure that ALL transmission sprockets are set

according to rate chart.
2. Excessive unit bounce can cause low population and
reduced spacing control. Increase unit down force or
drive slower to reduce excessive unit bounce.
3. Ensure that machine drive-wheel slippage is close to
normal. Crop residue, tire inflation pressure, soil
conditions and unit down force can cause variations in
drive-wheel slippage.

If all other settings are correct and if population is too

high, vacuum level can be reduced in one inch increments
until correct population is achieved. If actual population is
too low, vacuum level can be increased in half inch to one
inch increments until correct population is achieved.

Variable Rate Drive Theory of Operation
The variable rate drive system contains one or two

hydraulic motors and speed controller valves, one or two
hydraulic motor speed sensors, a tire motion sensor, a
height sensor, a terminator, and a Monitor Controller. The
system will operate only if the tire motion sensor indicates
the wheel is turning, and the height sensor indicates the
planter frame is down in the plant position. The Monitor
Controller receives inputs of population desired, tractor
50 speed through the GREENSTAR Display (radar), row
45 spacing, and hydraulic motor speed, calculates the
2
required hydraulic motor speed, and then sends an
electrical signal to the speed controller valve to increase
or decrease hydraulic oil flow to the hydraulic motor.

Excessive drive wheel slippage may be a problem if down

pressure option, colters, tine-tooth attachments and other
spring-loaded attachments are set too tight. They can
transfer too much of the planter frame weight away from
the drive wheels.
If an integral planter is used, be sure the hitch is

positioned correctly.

If in-field checks indicate that machine is planting at a rate
significantly different than seed transmission rate chart
indicates, investigate the following in the order listed: A—Flag
B—Seeds
1. Ensure that ALL transmission sprockets are set

according to rate chart.
2. Excessive unit bounce can cause low population and
reduced spacing control. Increase unit down force or
drive slower to reduce excessive unit bounce.
3. Ensure that machine drive-wheel slippage is close to
210
15 normal. Crop residue, tire inflation pressure, soil
6 conditions and unit down force can cause variations in
drive-wheel slippage.
FOR VACUUM METER ONLY:
If all other settings are correct and if population is too

high, vacuum level can be reduced in one inch increments
until correct population is achieved. If actual population is
too low, vacuum level can be increased in half inch to one
inch increments until correct population is achieved.

General Information—Variable Rate Drive
The best initial tool for troubleshooting the Variable Rate

Drive system is the INFO-Variable Drive-Performance
Data screen. The operator can watch this screen and
observe abnormal activity which may be causing
problems. The ground speed reading should read zero
when the tractor is standing still. The radar should also
move smoothly throughout different speed ranges.
The wheel sensor should indicate ACTIVE when the

planter is moving and display INACTIVE when the planter
is stopped or the wheel with the sensor is not rotating. If
this reading jumps between ACTIVE and INACTIVE the
tone wheel may have too much run out and be losing
contact with the sensor. This can be caused by a bent
tone wheel, sensor placement, or loose wheel bearings.
The motor speed (rpm) indicates the speed of the right

and left motors. This speed is derived from the actual
–19–17DEC98
speed sensed by the speed sensor mounted on the motor
shaft. The actual motor rpm is adjusted by the sprocket
combinations being used at the time so the speed
displayed should reflect the rpm of the individual meters.
A45272
Erratic readings may be caused by the speed sensor
slipping on the motor shaft.
210
15 Useful information provided in troubleshooting:
8
• Ground Speed: Signal from radar.
• Wheel Sensor: INACTIVE or no signal indicates no
wheel sensor pick up. (Sensor may be too far from
slotted plate.)
• Planter Position: Signal from height switch on wheel
arm indicating planter raised or lowered.
• Half-Width Disconnect: Indicates if each motor is
CLOSED (for driving) or OPEN (for not driving.)
• Motor Speed (RPM): Signal from variable rate motor
encoder.
• Plant Control Box: Warning message “Frame Controller
Module Not Responding” appears if frame control
harness not connected. (Cancel message if frame
control module is missing.)

Test Radar Lead
1. With the GREENSTAR Display connected and ON,

check the supply voltage to the radar by checking
between socket number 1 (-) and socket number 3 (+).
This reading should be approximately 12 volts or within
–UN–27JAN97
about 1 volt of tractor battery voltage.
2. Check the signal line voltage with a multimeter by

checking between sockets number 1 (-) and number 2
A40841
(+). The voltmeter should read approximately 11 volts.
NOTE: Since this circuit contains high resistance, using a

multimeter may cause the reading to vary from 2
to 12 volts, depending on the ohms-per-volt
sensitivity of the meter.
If proper voltage is present here but a speed fail or other

distance related problem still exists, refer to SEEDSTAR

Planter Radar Illustrated (37.5° Angle)
Be sure radar is aligned, mounted and connected to the
tractor properly. Reduce excessive vibration by placing
radar on mounting bracket as close to the tractor as
possible but leaving a small space between radar and
tractor.
Seed Tube Theory of Operation
Seed Tube Sensors are connected to the monitor and

send a signal back to the monitor every time a seed is
metered out by the seeding tool. The Monitor sends 8VDC
to power each Seed Tube Sensor. Each Seed Tube
Sensor emits a beam of infrared light. This infrared light is
invisible to the eye, but it is detected by the Seed Tube
Sensor. When a seed is metered out by the seeding tool,
it drops down the Seed Tube and passes through the
beam of light. When the beam of light is broken, the Seed
Tube Sensor sends a signal back to the monitor. On
Accu-count sensors, a diagnostic LED is mounted on the
front of the Seed Tube Sensor and will flash every time a
240
seed drops through the Seed Tube Sensor. 10
5

021304
PN=305
When the monitor is turned on, it will automatically scan

all Seed Tube Sensors for the prescribed seed population.
The monitor will continue to scan all seed tube sensors for
the prescribed population. Anytime the monitor does not
detect a signal from the Seed Tube Sensor, the monitor
will display the row number and the “Row Failed”
message. Multiple Seed Tube Sensors, Pressure Sensors
and Electronic Control Units are connected in parallel to
the monitors power source, so a failure in one Seed Tube
Sensor or wire may result in the failure of all Seed Tube
Sensors or all Electronic Control Units. Multiple row failure
will occur if Seed Tube Sensor power anywhere in the
harness is shorted to ground, Seed Tube Sensor power is
cut in the harness between the monitor and a potted
junction, Seed Tube Sensor ground is cut in the harness
between the monitor and a potted junction, or if a Seed
Tube Sensor draws too much current. A single row failure
will occur if a signal wire is open anywhere in the harness,
or a power or ground wire is cut between the Seed Tube
Sensor and a potted junction.
Seed Tube Sensors draw 25-50 mA of current. If they

draw more than this, the monitors power supply will shut
down due to an overcurrent condition. This overcurrent
condition will also fail the other rows. On the Row Signal
line, 12VDC can be detected on pin A of all Row Sensor
connectors X201 and up. This can be used to check the
signal circuit for continuity back to the monitor. If the
diagnostic LED is used to troubleshoot the Seed Tube
Sensor, the LED will flash when a seed has been
dropped. However, if the LED flashes, it does not mean
that the monitor received the signal from the Seed Tube
240 Sensor.

GREENSTAR Stand-Alone Vehicle CAN Bus Diagnostics
Theory of Operation
The operator has no control of the CAN Bus. It operates

automatically when the Key Switch is in the RUN or
START position.
The CAN Bus is a network for sending messages

between control units on the vehicle. These messages
can be commands, requests, broadcast information,
responses, acknowledgments, and group functions
It is a linear network and control units are connected

along its length. There is a terminator at each end of the
CAN Bus.
The CAN Bus uses digital messages to transfer

information from control unit to control unit. A message is
sent by one control unit and is addressed to another
control unit or is addressed to all control units. The
receiving control unit uses the information in the message
to monitor or control the vehicle.
Each control unit on the CAN Bus can send and receive
messages.

TY16329 (U.S.) Terminal Cleaner To clean corrosion from electrical

contacts/terminals
Electrical Connector Handling
Electrical connectors must not be forcibly connected or

disconnected. (All are designed to be mated easily. If you
have to use tools, you may be doing something wrong.)
Why: Prying on or forcing connectors may cause

permanent damage to the locking mechanism, contacts or
both.
When working on connectors, it is important to make sure

you are working on the correct terminal. Remember that
male and female halves are mirror images of one another.
Look for the terminal number on the connector body.
Why: The connection of improper electrical circuits can

cause very strange electrical symptoms.
When an electrical connector is repaired, it is important

the proper terminals are used.
Why: In some connectors, different terminals are used (to

carry different currents). If contacts of different materials
are mated, corrosion may develop that could affect future 240
performance. 20C
1
When removing terminals from a connector, it is very

important to use the right extraction tool and gently extract
the terminal. Use the proper extraction tool available
through SERVICEGARD.
Why: The connector body can be damaged if terminals

are just "jerked" out of it. The damage caused will prevent
the new terminal from staying in the connector and cause
replacement of the connector body.

Connector Repair
When installing a new terminal on a wire, make sure the

insulation crimp and wire crimp are both made properly.
Why: Each part of the terminal crimp is designed for a

specific purpose. Failure to properly crimp the wire contact
area can result in poor or no electrical contact, and failure
to crimp the insulation support properly can result in
problems getting the terminal into the connector body and
premature failure.
Essential or Recommended Tools
NOTE: Order tools from the U.S. SERVICEGARD or

European Microfiche Tool Catalogs.
ESSENTIAL TOOLS listed are required to perform the job

correctly and are obtainable only from SERVICEGARD or

General Information
TESTING PRECAUTIONS
IMPORTANT: TESTING PRECAUTIONS—Serious

damage can result to the component or
to the entire hydraulic system if lines or
hoses are not connected proper When
disconnecting a line or hose from a
hydraulic component, always mark the
line or hose and the port from which it
was removed so it can be reconnected
to the proper port.
Use two wrenches when attaching a

hose or line to a fitting to avoid
excessive twisting. Check the entire
length of the lines and hoses to be
certain they are not rubbing on moving
parts or vibrating because of loose
clamps.
CLEANLINESS—If the hydraulic system

should be disconnected for service,
protect the ends of the hoses, tubing
and ports of components from
contamination with clean, lint-free
towels or clean plastic bags.
Before installing any replacement hose,

flush the inside with unused diesel fuel
or unused petroleum cleaning solvent
for 10 seconds minimum. Do not use
water, water soluble cleaners or
compressed air.
