Horsch Sprinter issue

I'm having an occasional issue where the screen freezes indicating it's working, but the metering stops...

I use the same ISO screen for the sprayer which doesn't suffer the same issue, I have cleared out the pool files and checked connections etc, just wondered if anyone has come across the same issue before I ring up the dealer

Cant answer your query but interested in how you are using it for both the sprayer and drill? Does it simply run two bits of software? If so the drill must have a 'brain' on it somewhere? We've got drill manager v24 and would prefer to run it through our Chafer sprayer box which is identical to yours?

It's just a Muller ISO box, so the drill and Horsch sprayer both plug in and play
As long as the box can support that version of software it should be OK ??

I find it easier than running the drill through the Intelliview screen on the tractor as that's being used for guidance and I'm forever changing screens to look at info...

if It were me I would leave that box in the sprayer and buy another box to go on drill.
Think you’ll find your fix then.
The job computer (or brain) on drill remembers the settings so easy fix.
I am unaware of any software updates, never had one here on either of our drills, the systems pretty simple.
Good luck

I have another box which was used in the spring on my other tractor, it froze for the first time using that box !!

I cleaned up all the connections yesterday and it's reading from the drill better now, think that might have been the problem...
