Plant - Emptying the Equipment / Applying to Field
Planter Mode (Empty Equipment)
If the Primary device is connected to the Libra Plant in Planter mode, the equipment section will have the "Empty Equipment" option available. Emptying the equipment transfers the weight totals from the selected equipment's containers to the selected field and saves the unload transaction to the field and equipment.
- Select the Field to which the equipment will unload on the Display tab.
- Physically unload the equipment to the chosen Field.
- Tap Empty Equipment next to the Equipment total on the Display tab.
Planting Equipment can also be emptied from the Equipment tab.
- In the Equipment tab, tap into the desired Equipment.
- Tap Empty Equipment to unload the current loaded weight onto the currently selected Field.
Tender Mode (Apply to Field)
If the Primary device is connected to the Libra Plant in Tender mode, the equipment section will have the "Apply to Field" option available. Applying to the field will bring up the Planter application estimate menu.
- Select the field to which the equipment will unload on the Display tab.
- Physically unload the equipment to the chosen field.
- Tap Apply to Field next to the equipment total on the Display tab.
- The Application Estimate menu will appear. This menu has interactive fields for the most recently applied area, the total applied area, the applied rate, and applied weight. There are also fields showing the current commodity in each container and ending weight that cannot be modified.
- Enter either the most recent applied area or the total applied area (editing one will automatically adjust the other).
- If the containers in use are empty, hit the Empty button to apply the commodity to the field and record the transaction.
- If the containers in use are not empty, enter the Applied Rate or the Applied Weight for each container. Tap Save to record the transaction to the selected Field.
