AccuBoom Control
The AccuBoom Control option allows the Viper console to automatically turn the
boom sections on or off by referencing the coverage map. When AccuBoom sees
from the coverage map that the boom has entered an area where product has previ-
ously been applied, it turns the boom section off. When the boom section leaves the
previously applied area, AccuBoom turns the boom section back on.
Helpful Hint: AccuBoom turns booms off when you go outside an
Rx Map. AccuBoom will also turn boom sections off when
entering zero rate zones on an Rx map if Enable Zero Rate Shut-off
has been enabled in the Accu-Boom setup.
AccuBoom initially creates a 5 MB file with a .bct extension that contains detailed
information about the boom section coverage for a specific job. AccuBoom saves
this file in the Coverage folder on the flashdisk. If the field exceeds the size of the
original AccuBoom file, Viper will automatically increase the file size to cover the
entire field area.
Important: Raven recommends that you use a flashdisk of
128 MB or larger when using the AccuBoom feature.
See Chapter 6 for details on AccuBoom control.
Product Chaining
The product chaining feature allows you to chain together product tanks or bins
when applying product to a field. When one tank or bin runs out, Viper automatically
switches to another tank or bin and keeps applying product. This reduces trips made
by the operator to refill product.
Important:
 The products being chained must have their valve type
setup as either “Fast Close” or “PWM Close” before
enabling product chaining.
 The Vac/Bin Alarm and Low Tank Alarm must be set up
and turned on before beginning product chaining.
 The Tank Volume should be set up before starting a job.
If advance on low tank alarm is selected and the tank
volume is zero, bin chaining will immediately advance
product control to the next tank.
 If Advance on Bin Level Sensor Alarm is to be used, all
products in the chain must be equipped with a bin level
sensor.
