The MATRIXTM and Centerline 230BP are combined Guidance and Automatic Boom Section
Control (ABSC) devices that features control of up to 15 boom sections. The MATRIXTM or the
Centerline 230BP connects in parallel to the existing wiring loom to the section valves.
Principle of Operation
The MATRIX
TM
or Centerline 230BP control the sections valves according to the GPS position and
the GPS guidance makes it possible to avoid overlaps or skips.
The MATRIX
TM
or Centerline 230BP controls the section valves in automatic mode, and the section
switches should be set to off unless the operator wants to override the auto mode and thus force
spraying.
The MATRIX
TM
or Centerline 230BP monitors the section switches that controls the valves in
manual mode. The Master switch can be used both in automatic mode as well as in manual mode.

SYSTEM CHECK
After connecting the power connector, it's time to make a system check. To check the system it's
necessary to have full GPS signal so the vehicle must be placed outside.
Check AUTO mode:
Blanchard REB3 Controller / Switch Box:
•Switches on REB3 computer are deactivated once the CAN interface is connected.
•Please use switches on the TeeJet switchbox to manually drive the section valves.
•Switches should be in OFF position when working in Automatic mode.
•The Master switch will control the sprayer and should be ON to enable automatic switching of
the sections.”
MATRIXTM or CL230:
•Turn the Guidance controller on
•Encode the number of sections and the width of each
(Refer to the MATRIXTM or CL230 user manual)
•Wait for GPS signal
•Set the mode to AUTO
•Drive forward (> 2 km/h)
•Observe that all sections and the master valve open.
•Check that the Master valve closes when the Master switch is set off.
•Check hectare counter in the MATRIXTM or CL230 against the Blanchard REB3 controller.
Check MANUAL mode:
MATRIXTM or CL230:
•Set the ABSC mode to MANUAL
Check in the ‘Boom Section Control Screen’ (Matrix or CL230) that the section icons turn off and
on according to the valve/switch status.
Switch Box:
•Set the section switch's on
•Set the Master switch on
•Observe that all sections and the master valve open.
