NOTE: Refer to IS715 for installation instructions for your KPM III.
The KPM III electronic seed monitor system consists of:
A tractor mounted KPM III console powered by tractor 12 VDC battery receives and displays information from planter mounted sensors.
• Seed tube and sensor installed in each planter row unit.
• A magnetic distance sensor installed on planter or a radar distance sensor installed on tractor.
• Shaft rotation sensors (if applicable) installed on planter drill shafts.
• Vacuum, pneumatic down pressure, ASD, and hydraulic level/temperature (If applicable), installed on planter.
• Planter harnesses (junction Y-harness and extension harness where applicable), to which the individual seed tube sensors connect. The primary harness, which connects the monitor console to the planter harness, is hard-wired into the safety/warning light harness or
control console harness included as standard equipment with the planter.
The KPM III console uses a backlit Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) to show number of monitored rows, relative seed rate for each row (using bargraph displays), and alarm and warning messages. A continuous audible alarm sounds upon system malfunction or underow conditions for any monitored row. Alarms must be acknowledged. Various warnings also sound an alarm or ash one or more messages. The LCD displays row spacing, units (Metric or English), speed (MPH or KM/H), volume, seed population, seed spacing, eld area, and total area.
KPM III software allows simultaneous viewing of seed ow bargraphs for standard and Interplant System rows (up to 36 rows).
The monitor system powers down if there is no new seed ow or operator push key input within one hour.

STEP 4 Turn knob or use arrows keys to highlight a crop for
planting then press knob or Enter key. Once crop
type is entered, “Seeds per rev” is automatically set .
A sensitivity threshold (Seed Size) ensures dust and other debris are
ltered out and only actual seeds are counted. Sensitivity threshold is
set to a default for a selected crop which is adequate for most conditions.
Sensitivity can be set between 0 and 31, 0 being most sensitive
(counts smallest particles) and 31 least sensitive (counts large
particles). Adjust threshold one value at a time until desired result
is achieved. Once value is changed it becomes default for that crop.
NOTE: Adjusting threshold too high can cause monitor to miss seeds and provide inaccurate information. Always do a ground check to ensure monitor is reading accurately.

PROGRAMMING ROW UNIT ALARM LEVELS

Row Unit Alarm Levels allow thresholds for seed rate alarms to be set. Default is 50% or Average. If average population drops below 50% for a given row a seed rate alarm is generated for
that row unit. The alarm threshold can be set to 70%, 50%, 0% or disabled, or any custom percentage for any row.
NOTE: When alarm threshold is disabled for any row no seed rate alarm will be generated.
