CHAPTER 1– PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Congratulations on the purchase of your new IC18 Spreader ECU built on the ISOBUS architecture. When used within the guidelines of the this manual, the IC18 controller will be a reliable application tool.
This manual covers the North America functions of the IC18 ECU. For European functions, see manual number 98-05271.
Use with your existing VT or the Matrix 570VT for dry product application
• Works seamlessly and displays on any ISOBUS VT
• Easy navigation menu and data rich display
• Add additional ISOBUS ECUs as your needs change
• Provides basic rate control or variable rate if the connecting VT has variable rate task control capabilities
• Standardized plugs, cables and software simplify installation and connectivity and result in true “plug and play”
technology. IC18 ECU resides on the implement, reducing hardware in the cab

CALCULATION MODE

The IC18 job computer is programed to calculate calibrations based on North American or European methods.
◄North America – Gate Height is calculated into the product application and calibrations will be based on pulses
per volume.
◄European – Gate Height is NOT calculated into the product application and calibrations will be based on
volume per pulse.
This setting has been established before leaving the factory, but it can be changed after purchase with assistance from TeeJet Technologies Customer Service or your local dealer through the OEM setup menu options.

Calibrations

Calibrations establishes either manual or automatic settings of the sensors.
NOTE: For specific calibration options to appear, a
specific sensor needs to be installed. Sensor availability is activated on the Sensor Presence screen in the OEM section.
Pulses Per Volume
Pulses Per Volume establishes number of pulses for one (1) cubic foot or one (1) cubic centimeter. This value can be established manually or calibrated automatically. Each type of spreader has a variety of variables that factor into the pulses per volume number (roller diameter, gate height and width, sensor type, type of belt or chain, etc.). The pulses per volume number factors these variables into the spreader output
Note: The calibration is based on the Reference Gate
Height, which defaults to 4 inches / 10 cm. This number is accessed in the OEM Menu. The actual Gate Height during calibration MUST match the reference gate height setting.

CHAPTER 4 – OPERATION MODE

The Operation Screen accesses the working aspects of the IC18 including boom section control, rate
control and trip/count/application information.
NOTE: Settings are automatically saved when selected.
NOTE: The menu structure on your display might vary from the one displayed in this User Manual
depending on the virtual terminal being used.

NORTH AMERICA OR EUROPEAN CALCULATION MODE

The IC18 job computer is programed to calculate calibrations based on North American or European methods.
◄North America – Gate Height is calculated into the product application and calibrations will be based on pulses
per volume.
◄European – Gate Height is NOT calculated into the product application and calibrations will be based on
volume per pulse.
This setting has been established before leaving the factory, but it can be changed after purchase with assistance from TeeJet Technologies Customer Service or your local dealer through the OEM setup menu options.

OPERATION MODE OVERVIEW

Information on the Operation screen will vary depending on the parameters set by the user and the OEM.
