[QUOTE="AS_Comms, post: 5112036, member: 5350"] The on latency is the physical time for the seed to travel from the metering unit to the outside Coulter as the seed tube on most drills is longer than the middle Coulter and takes more time to travel which is about 2 seconds. The off latency would be again the time traveled from the metering system to the shorter seed tube which would in most cases be a middle Coulter which is about 1.5 seconds. The timing will depend on the drill width as a 6 meter drill would have a longer on latency than a 4 meter drill and also the fan speed and seed size can give different latency's. The FMX display will use the timed latency to start and or stop the metering system 2 or 1 seconds before the boundary or coverage logging. Measurement in the implement setting are very important in order to get this set correctly as is a constant forward speed when crossing the boundary or coverage logged area, a rapid increase or decrease of speed will result in a overlap or underlap. Hope this helps P.S. latency time are for a 6 meter rapid traveling at 11k on the in's and out's [/QUOTE]
