Valve works fine using test buttons on the Cytron, with PWM 100 from app it does hardly move.
Couple things. Put a multi meter on and see what the voltage is. Write a sketch to out put 255 and see how it opens.
Own monitor for RC control. Think this will be great 
I think til will be great for isobus control. Both screen is touch so everything working.
Only thing i’am missing is fullscreen mode on RC application
Links for what i used:
- Capacitive touch, (EU Plug)

Correct me if I am wrong on this.
Setting up a rate control rc15 on a sprayer. I see in the rate control app that there is a tank level indicator, but it is only set manually and depletes as the flow meter measures out flow.
What is the possibility of having a pressure sensor in the bottom of the tank, say a a 0-250mbar sensor which as the tank empties or is filled it shows a more accurate tank level.
The benefit i see with this is when filling and you only need a partial filled tank for a field it takes the guess work out of it as you can jump in the cab and see what level you have filled to, minimising excessive left over spray or not having enough spray
It might work when you’re filling stationary, but I doubt it’d make much sense on the move. Maybe a fluid filled loop around the bottom of the tank. Need to be flat-bottomed with vertical sides.
It would also be subject to the specific gravity of the mix.
Hi. I have installt ol the latest versions and use a rc 11 board. When i want tu set the pressure then the current reading floats between 1650 and 1800 when i meassure at a0 from the ads1115 header 0.5 volt. Presure 0. When i put 5 volt to the sensor output (messure 5 v at a0 from ads) the reading is stil floating between 1650 and 1800… what can be wrong. Seems a problem between ads and teensy ? Is there something i have to activate ?
Hello. I use a sprayer with rate control. I have a problem. When you set the standard valve, the pressure rises to the limit and when you turn on the spray, the pressure is crazy, when the combo close is set, the pressure drops to 0, and after starting to spray, you have to drive a long way until the working pressure is reached, what to do and how to adjust it. Thanks
I think I found it, I played with the module settings and everything is fine. One more question, why can’t I turn on pre-spraying, does the sprayer move at least a little?
100 mBar is sufficient for every meter of tank length; I tried it, but the value fluctuates a lot because the tank is mobile. If you are going to install a sensor, mount it to the side of the tank, not directly underneath; this will prevent clogging or malfunction due to dirt.
You can do this - you need to hold master ON for some time - settings->machine->primed start
I am working to make this rate and section control to my Amazone UG sprayer. I have ordered RC15 board that from what I understand should be simple to install. But question regarding it, board has abilitity to drive 2 rate control and 7 reversible sections. My sprayer has 1 motor to adjust pressure depending on flow meter and then 7 reversible sections.
Could this spare rate control on the board be used to control the main feed to the boom, is there software ready for this kind of use case?
Yes, if 1 sensor is set, M2 is treated as output 8. You can set the main valve on it.
