Functions
Auto functions general info
The Soft key buttons are used for the End Nozzle functions.
ATTENTION! Refer to “B. Soft keys” on page 3.6 for information about how to enter the soft keys.
End nozzles (Fence line) (optional)
If End nozzles/Bi-jet are fitted, set the value to the equivalent coverage by the boom nozzles. E.g. End nozzle coverage is 5
feet. This is equal to [03 Boom nozzles]. Choose End Nozzles by pressing F1.
• When end nozzle is active, it will be shown in the display with two icons at the ends of the boom line.
• Set up of end nozzles/Bi-jet can be done from menu 3.3.4.
ATTENTION! It is important that the volume applied from the end nozzle or Bi-jet matches the volume applied under
the boom. This is a comparison of volume per minute per length. (Liter/min/meter).
When the end nozzle or Bi-jet is active, the area covered and volume sprayed is calculated and registered. If “Active
boom size” is displayed, it will show an increase when the end nozzle or Bi-jet is activated.

DynamicFluid4 pressure regulation
Traditional fluid regulation starts when the nozzles are opened. With DynamicFluid4 the regulation is a continuous process
that continues even if the nozzles are closed. Two ceramic discs regulate the pressure and ensures quick reaction and zero
leakages. Sprayer speed, P.T.O. RPM and number of sections activated are parameters used, and the benefit is more precise
application rates from the second the sprayer begins spraying.
The DynamicFluid4 uses feed forward technology based on 5 sensors that feed the JobCom computer with data necessary
for optimal regulation. It auto-primes at start-up, starts and moves the valve towards the final position immediately after the
operator makes changes. E.g. when section valves are opened or closed, the regulation valve is started the same time the
section valve motors are started. This avoids overpressure situations e.g. after running empty and refill of main tank.
The 5 sensors are also back-up for each other and ensures the system can continue regulation even if one or more sensor
signals fail. Sensors used are:
• Sprayer speed sensor
• Flow sensor
• Pressure sensor
• Pump r.p.m. sensor
• Regulation valve opening angle sensor
The DynamicFluid4 pressure regulation features are:
• Very fast and accurate regulation when all sensors are ok, setup in menus are correct and pump, filters and valves are
in good condition.
• Quick reacting valve when sections are turned ON/OFF and at speed changes.
• Optimized AutoSectionControl feature that predicts when boom sections will open and nozzle pressure.
• Optimized for different P.T.O. systems.
• Nozzle surveillance. No setup or tuning required for nozzle change.
• Warning in display if failures occur on boom plumbing, such as severe clogging of line or nozzle filters or large leakages
on hoses and fittings.
• All functions continue working, although with degraded performance (Limp home modes), if:
Faults occur in fluid system, e.g. pump defects, clogged filters, leaking valves.
Sensor failure appears on pressure sensor, flow sensor or RPM sensor.
There is wrong setup of sprayer data in menus.
• Emergency mode if angle sensor or speed sensor fails.

SafeTrack (Trailed sprayers only)
SafeTrack is a steering mechanisms for the trailed HARDI® sprayers. When using a track system, sprayer stability is a common
concern. Many factors influence the sprayer and conditions where the sprayer might tip over have to be dealt with.
The factors that the driver can influence with are
• Driving behavior
• Field conditions
• Tire width
• Tire pressure
Read sprayer’s instruction book for further information. If unsafe driving occurs, an alarm will be triggered and the sprayer
will align. Be aware that the alarm cannot be turned off as long as unsafe driving still occurs!
ATTENTION! If necessary, the level of security can be adjusted - please contact your local HARDI® dealer.
DANGER! The system has been calibrated during driving on flat fields. Special attention should be made when driving
€
in hilly conditions.
DANGER! When driving on fields with deep tracks, then the speed must be decreased.
€
HARDI® AutoSectionControl (optional)
HARDI® AutoSectionControl will:
• manage the sections when driving over sprayed area, like into a headland or wedge or around obstacles like trees, etc.
• automatically record the area sprayed, when spraying.
In a typical situation where the headland is sprayed first, HARDI® AutoSectionControl will now automatically close the
sections if the operator passes over a sprayed area.
ATTENTION! Variable Rate Application needs to be enabled for AutoSectionControl to work - refer to “Menu 2.3

Spraying with FlexCapacity pump
On conventional P.T.O. systems, both the P.T.O. pump and the hydraulic FlexCapacity pump deliver constant flow when
engaged. Therefore the spray pressure is controlled by the regulation valve when:
• Valves/sections are opened or closed.
• Speed is increased or decreased, etc.
When specific driving conditions or large nozzles makes the regulation valve unable to adjust to correct pressure because
of too large or too low flow, i.e. regulation valve is completely open or closed, it requires the FlexCapacity pump to be turned
ON/OFF - in general:
• Turn FlexCapacity pump ON when nozzle pressure gets too low. Controller prompts the warning “Increase pump flow”.
• Turn FlexCapacity pump OFF when nozzle pressure gets too high. Controller prompts the warning “Reduce pump
flow”.

7.1
7 - Menu 3 Calibration
Menu 3.1.1.1 Sprayer speed constant
The theoretical speed constant, pulses per unit (PPU), is the number of
times the speed sensor records holes (or protrusions / magnets) per foot
(meter) as the wheel rotates past the sensor. If necessary, this can be
calculated by dividing the number of protrusions by the circumference
of the tire in feet (meters).
By using known tire dimensions and number of protrusions, the
following formulas may be used to calculate the theoretical PPU:
Practical calibration of speed is done by driving a measured distance
and correcting the display so that the actual and the calculated
distances are the same.
NOTE! Calibration should take place in the field with a half full
÷
tank and normal working tire pressure in order to obtain the
wheel’s real “working radius”.
ATTENTION! Changing tires will require a new calibration!
Method
1. Measure a distance not less than 200 feet.
2. Park the tractor at the start of the measured distance.
3. Press Enter. When zero distance [0] shows, drive the distance.
4. Press Enter.
5. Correct the distance shown on the display to read the actual distance.
6. Press Enter to see the new calculated value.
7. Press Enter again to accept the value.
8. Repeat process to verify calibration. PPU should not change significantly if calibration has been made correctly.

Menu 3.2 Flow calibration
The flow transducer can be calibrated theoretically or calibrated with
clean water by using one of the two practical methods.
The practical methods are preferred:
MethodCalibration timeAccuracy
Tank methodTime consumingAccurate
Nozzle methodShortInaccurate
ATTENTION! When changing to nozzles with more than a 100%
increase or decrease in output, it is recommended to re-calibrate
the flow transducer.
ATTENTION! Calibration is recommended to be done at least once during the spraying season. Use the chart “Chart
for recording values” on page 13.4 to record the values.
Menu 3.2.1 Flow constant
When spraying both fertilizer and chemical, HARDI® recommends to use 2 different flow sensor housings in order to get
good pressure regulation. The same flow sensor wheel is used for both flow sensor housings. Flow sensor calibration PPU
must be changed each time flow sensor housings are changed.
Correct flow housing can easily be selected based on:
• Sprayer boom width.
• Operator’s typical spray pressure in the field (max. pressure).
• Nozzle ISO size typically selected by operator.
Approximate PPU values for different flow housings are listed in the
table below. Different flow housings are designated by groove (A).
HousingHousing identification (A) Flow range OrificePPU

S/67No groove4 - 7020.0215.00
S/67Two outside grooves20 - 16036.060.00
To change the theoretical flow constant, use the navigation keys to
enter a new PPU value.
ATTENTION! PPU indicates the number of pulses which theoretically come from the flow transducer while 1 gallon of
liquid passes through.
ATTENTION! Entering a theoretical PPU value does not guarantee accuracy. Flow calibration should still be carried out
Compares the individual nozzle output on the display to the actual
individual nozzle output. The output displayed is corrected to read the

5. In the sub menus [3.3.4.2] and [3.3.4.3] set the value to the equivalent coverage by the boom nozzles. E.g. end nozzle
coverage is 5 feet. This is equal to 3 boom nozzles.
ATTENTION! It is important that the volume applied from the end nozzle matches the volume applied under the
boom, i.e. end nozzles mounted must have the same ISO size as the regular nozzles on the boom. This is a comparison
of volume per minute per length (Gallons/min/inches).
When the end nozzle is active, the area covered and volume sprayed is calculated and registered. If “Active boom
size” is displayed, it will show an increase when the end nozzle is activated.

Menu 3.4 Regulation user setup
The sensitivity of pressure regulation valve can be adjusted. Values are to
be set for obtaining precise regulation, even if sensors fails.
The valve is controlled by up to five main sensors:
• Sprayer speed sensor:
This sensor reads the sprayer’s forward speed which is used for
calculating the volume rate at all spraying speeds.
• Flow sensor:
This sensor reads the flow at the operating unit which is used for
calculating the pressure at all flow rates.
• Pressure sensor:
This sensor reads the pressure at the operating unit which is used
for calculating the flow at the pressure regulation valve.
• P.T.O. RPM sensor:
This sensor reads the pump RPM’s which is used to calculate the flow from the pump at all pump speeds.
• Regulation valve opening angle sensor:
This sensor reads the opening angle for the rotary valve inside. When opening angle is known, the flow can be
calculated when the pressure is also known. The result is when forward speed, pump RPM’s, etc. is known, then the
regulation valve can predict setting (Feed Forward) before opening the main ON/OFF. Thereby the volume rate is
correct even the forward speed has changed significantly since the main ON/OFF was closed (no fluctuation).
Menu 3.4.1 Flow sensor restriction
The menu defines the resistance in the plumbing and circuits of the
specific sprayer setup. As the resistance varies with the choice of flow
housing, this must be set up prior to spraying.
• Select value from the schematic and enter it in this menu.

Menu 3.4.2 Simulated speed value
The “Simulated speed value” menu is used in 2 situations:
7 - Menu 3 Calibration
• When stopped or driving
very slowly while priming
the boom.
• If speed sensor is defective. In this case the computer will assume that the sprayer is traveling with the speed typed
Also when spraying speed drops below the lowest speed where a spray
job can begin when starting at headland (this speed is set by the HARDI®
dealer), the speed will be simulated to maintain normal spray pressure
until normal spraying speed is maintained.
• Default value: 4.5 mph (7.2 km/h)
ATTENTION! Use this menu when a spray job has to be finished
before fixing the defective sensors.
ATTENTION! Recommended setting is 75-90% of spraying speed.
This feature allows the operator to stop or drive slowly and automatically get normal
spray pressure to prime the boom.
in “Simulated speed value”. The operator should keep the tractor constantly at this
speed to maintain a good regulation with ability to handle changes in application rate
and changes in sections.
Speed entered should be appropriate also for headlands. If speed is reduced at
headlands, resulting application rate will be higher than set value. I.e if operator selects
application rate of 20 gpa and speed of 5 mph and then reduces speed from 5 to 4 mph
at headlands, actual application rate will increase to 25 gpa.

7 - Menu 3 Calibration
Menu 3.4.3 Nozzle size flow at 45 psi
In fault free operation, the controller uses the flow sensor and the
pressure sensor to detect the nozzle size.
In case of flow sensor and/or pressure sensor fault, the nozzle flow can
be entered to obtain a more accurate regulation of the regulation valve.
If either the flow sensor or the pressure sensor is faulty, the nozzle
cannot be identified. The controller stores the last detected nozzle size,
and this value is then used.
• Default value: 0.21 gpm (0.80 l/min)
ATTENTION! If changing nozzles while a sensor is faulty, then type
in the size of the new nozzle.
Nozzle size is defined as flow at 3 bar as to be seen in the Hardi® nozzle catalog.
NOTE! The flow at 45 psi in the Hardi® nozzle catalog is measured without nozzle filter and without Pentalet nozzle

ATTENTION! This menu item is only present if the HARDI® Tank
Gauge is fitted.
7 - Menu 3 Calibration
Menu 3.5.1 Adjustment of specific gravity
The correction factor for the specific gravity of the liquid sprayed can be
set.
Default value is 1.00.
Corrected value is weight of solution divided by weight of water.
For liquid fertilizers, the specific gravity may range up to 1.3 times
heavier than water. The value in this case would be 1.30.
ATTENTION! Remember to set type of nozzle to be used in menu
[3.4.5 Type of nozzle].
Method
1. Set specific gravity.
2. Press Enter to confirm.
Menu 3.5.2 Calibration of Tank gauge
ATTENTION! Prior to attempting a custom calibration, the SafeTrack must be disabled in the extended menu.
Calibration of the HARDI® Tank Gauge is necessary if the factory calibration shows inaccurate. E.g. different placed hitch point
on the tractor or other tire mounting may result an inaccurate calculation of the tank contents.
Therefore it is recommended to begin the custom calibration by connecting the sprayer to the tractor that will be used for
spraying. Later changes of tractor can affect the accuracy of the Tank gauge.
7.11
7 - Menu 3 Calibration
Custom calibration
1. First enter menu [3.5.3.01 Custom calibration of gauge].
2. Go to menu [3.5.2.1 Water level].
3. Fill the sprayer up to nominal tank contents, using an external
calibrated flowmeter. Alternatively weigh the sprayer before and
after filling, and note the weight difference.
4. Press Enter.
ATTENTION! As the accuracy of the custom calibration is affected,
it is of high importance that the external calibrated flowmeter
measures the correct quantity within a 2% deviation. Same
accuracy of 2% must be kept if weighing the sprayer before/after
filling is used.
WARNING! Do not leave the sprayer while filling the tank, and keep an eye on the level indicator in order NOT to
±
overfill the tank.
5. Press Enter after ensuring the sprayer is level. Refill the tank up to
the tank lid if the sprayer is re-levelled.
ATTENTION! Levelling the procession of sprayer is of great
importance as the accuracy is directly affected!
Assuming that the same tractor will be used after custom calibration, it
is not necessary for the sprayer to be level itself. But the whole
procession of tractor and sprayer (A) need to be level.
Use e.g. a beam (B) approximately 20 feet long, placed on two wooden
blocks at the location where the calibration will take place. Place a level
(C) on the beam (B) to find the level point of the calibration location.
7.12
7 - Menu 3 Calibration
6. Engage the pump and set P.T.O. revolutions at 540 rpm or 1000
rpm (depending on pump model).
7. Open all boom sections and empty the tank. The pulses from the
flow transducer are logged as data points.
During this session the screen shows:
[xxxx] as the actual water level in inches and
[yyyyyyy] is the number of pulses from the flow meter.
ATTENTION! The definition of having an empty tank, is when no spray comes out of the nozzles anymore. Note that
when empty, there will still remain about 3 gallons in the sump of the tank.
8. Press Enter when the tank is empty.
9. Correct the displayed volume to the actual volume sprayed out.
10. Press Enter. The new custom gauge table is calculated and the
calibration of the HARDI® Tank Gauge is finished.
Menu 3.5.3 Select factory calibration
This menu may have been set up by your HARDI® service center.
Selection can only be done with no water in the tank. See “Menu 3.5.4
Offset at empty main tank” to check if empty.
The prerequisites for accuracy of the level, when selecting the factory
calibration is:
• Level sprayer; When mounted to the tractor then the sprayer
should be level.
Check if level by placing a level on the frame of the COMMANDER
sprayer as follows:
COMMANDER modelPlace of level
5500 or smallerUnderside of the frame.
8500 or largerUpper side of the frame (Important as frame is not parallel).
Height of hitch point when mounted to tractor; The height of hitch point measured from the ground should be 21.7” (550
mm). Measure of tank contents changes with the height of the hitch point.
ATTENTION! If one of the prerequisites are not fulfilled, then refer to “Menu 3.5.2 Calibration of Tank gauge” to make
a custom calibration of the tank gauge.

Menu 3.5.4 Offset at empty MainTank
In menu [3.5.4.1 TankGauge Offset] read out the frequency (Hz) at empty
tank. If the main tank is empty, then press Enter to accept the frequency.
In case the main tank is not empty, this menu can only be used to
correct the empty-frequency if it is known to the user.
NOTE! The definition of an empty tank is when the pump is not
÷
able to suck more liquid from the tank, i.e. there will still be a very
small amount of liquid in the sump when the tank is defined
empty.
ATTENTION! This can also be useful for re-calibrating empty tank
frequency if the sensor has dirt on it.
Menu 3.6 Track
There is no standard setting for the Track setup. The Track needs to be adjusted for different kinds of tractors, the sprayer and
spraying practices and can only be found under actual conditions.
Spraying speedTrack setup
High speed (12 to 16 mph)Must react slowly: The dead zone must be increased.
Low speed (4 to 6 mph)For high precision: The dead zone can be reduced.
For each adjustment, it’s described what happens if the setting is changed and what effect will it have on the sprayer.
SafeTrack
SafeTrack is operated at the SetBox.
Track selection switches has 3 functions:
1. Align button (16) will align the sprayer. Used before folding the
boom.
2. Auto button (17) switches SafeTrack into auto mode and the
sprayer will follow the track from the tractor.
3. Manual buttons (15) will steer the sprayer right and left. Auto is OFF
when using manual buttons (15).
ATTENTION! If unsafe driving occurs, an alarm will be triggered and the sprayer will align.
• Press Enter to turn alarm off.
• Pressing “align” (16) will also turn alarm off. Be aware that the alarm cannot be turned off as long as unsafe driving still
occurs!
Menu 3.6.1 Track width
Here the track width can be entered.
• The track width is measured from right side tire center to left side
tire center of the sprayer wheels.
It is important that the correct track width is entered. The controller will
calculate the speed at the center of sprayer, and not at the wheel sensor
as speed would vary in right and left turns.
ATTENTION! If the track width is incorrect, it will influence on track
precision and the safety factor.
Factory setting: 71” (180 cm)
7.14
Menu 3.6.2 Tractor drawbar
Here the length of the tractor drawbar is entered.
• The measurement is from the center of the tractor rear axle to the
center of the drawbar pin.
This has to be adjusted every time a new tractor is hooked on to the
sprayer. When hooked up, check the rigidity of the tractor drawbar
mounts. There must be no sideways movement.
Factory setting: 31” (80 cm)
Too short measurement: The Track reacts faster, but will make the
sprayer steer too large curves.
Too long measurement:The Track reacts slower, but will make the
sprayer steer too short curves.
Menu 3.6.3 Dead zone for regulation
This is the non regulation zone when the sprayer is straight behind the
tractor. If the sprayer is oscillating in the hydraulics when driving straight,
this value must be increased.
Factory setting: 4“ (10 cm); Over 8” (20 cm) not recommended.
Decreasing value:Reacting on small deviations. Tendency to
oscillation that will damage the boom.
High precision, but more unstable driving
with small corrections all the time.
Increasing value:No oscillation but tendency to sway. Low
precision, but very steady driving with less
corrections.
7 - Menu 3 Calibration
Menu 3.6.4 Damping of hydraulics
If the system is to aggressive the damping constant must be increased.
Failure to do so may damage the boom.
Factory setting: 50%
No damping (0%):High precision, but very unsteady. Fast
reaction time, but more aggressive
movement that potentially can damage
the boom.
Full damping (100%):Low precision, but very steady. Slow
reaction time, but less aggressive.
Menu 3.6.5 Align offset + right - left
This is to compensate if the front potentiometer is placed offset to the
center line when the sprayer is attached.
Factory setting: 0” (0 cm)
Negative setting will move the sprayer to the left of the track, and
positive setting will move the sprayer to the right of the track. The
sprayer must follow the tractor in a straight line in all situations. If the
value is over 4” (10 cm), it is recommended to manually adjust position
of the front angle sensor.

Emergency operation
In an emergency situation
If an error occurs in the system then choose Computer CAN status. This
test will show if there is communication between the units. The menu
will be as shown.
ATTENTION! See also “Menu 4.7 Emergency” on page 8.3.
Operation when a sensor fails
When one of the sensors for RPM, flow or pressure fails, the system will work in a limp home mode with reduced, though
acceptable, performance. One of the alarm ID’s between 140 to 147 will be triggered in the controller display. See also “Fault
codes” on page 11.5.
• In the auto mode, the system will not work with 2 failing sensors, hence the operator should repair the failing sensor
as soon as possible.
• The pressure regulation can use both wheel speed sensor on trailer and GPS speed via ISOBUS.
NOTE! SafeTrack only works with wheel speed sensor.

Pressure regulation angle sensor works both as a feed back to the computer and as the end stop switch. If angle sensor fails,
the operator can continue turning regulation valve past the completely closed position.
Failure in the sensors below will cause an inaccurate calculation of the volume rate when spraying. In order to be able to end
a spray job when a sensor fails, do the following:

11 - Fault finding
Fluid system test
1. Close the main ON/OFF valve.
2. Close the regulation valve by pressing button to increase the pressure. Yellow diode lights on the regulation valve.
3. Close the agitation valve.
4. Close the pressure filter bypass valve.
5. Set pump from 250 to 300 RPM, engine in idle speed.
6. Now all water from pump should pass boom flow sensor.
7. Pump condition and possible internal valve leakages can be checked by comparing:
• Menu 4.5.5.3.3 Pump calc flow. This menu shows the calculated flow from the pump.
• Menu 4.5.5.3.6 Meas boom flow. This menu shows the actual measured flow through the flow sensor.
Calibration of the flow transducer is carried out with clean water but small changes may occur when adding pesticides or
fertilizer. This will effect the final readings. This is typically noted when the volume displayed on the display does not equal
the actual known volume that was sprayed out. The formula below can be used to “fine tune” the flow transducer PPU.
For example, the spray tank is filled with 1000 gallons of spray liquid.
When sprayed out, the display showed a total of 900 gallons. (Original PPU = 485.0)
Note the relation is inverse:
• To raise the displayed volume, the PPU is lowered.
• To lower the displayed volume, the PPU is raised.

12 - Testing and fine tuning
Testing flow transducer
• BROWN wire to positive of 12 volt battery.
• BLACK wire to negative.
• BLUE wire to multimeter positive.
1. Check the rotor turns freely.
2. Each vane in the rotor has a magnet in it with the pole facing out. Check that the 4 magnets are present.
3. Use a magnet to check that every second magnet in the rotor has the same pole orientation. The rotor magnets must
be N - S - N - S.
4. Connect negative from multimeter to negative of battery.
5. Set multimeter to DC volt.
6. By turning the mill wheel slowly, this will register approximately 8.0 +/- 1 volt with the diode on and 0.3 +/- 0.1 volt
with the diode off with every second magnet.
Testing speed transducer
This transducer is used for speed, Twin speed, Boom fold, SafeTrack, Main pump/FlexCapacity RPM.
• BROWN wire to positive of 12 volt battery.
• BLACK wire to negative.
• BLUE wire to multimeter.
1. Connect negative from multimeter to negative of battery.
2. Set multimeter to DC volt.
3. Bring a metallic object within 1/8” to 3/16” (3 to 5 mm) from the transducer. This will register 1.4 +/- 0.2 volt and the
diode will turn on.
4. By removing the object, this will register 12.0 +/- 1.0 volt. Diode is OFF.
