• MANUAL FOREWORD AND USE
This manual provides instructions to assemble, connect and set the computers of the BRAVO 350 family.
Any other information is provided in specific sheets to be used exclusively by the installer, containing specific information of each computer model.
• MANUAL USE MODES
The section of this manual dedicated to the installation contains information for installers. For this reason we have used technical terms
without providing explanations which would be necessary for end users only.
THE INSTALLATION MUST BE CARRIED OUT BY AUTHORIZED AND SKILLED PERSONNEL ONLY. THE MANUFACTURER IS
NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY OPERATION SPECIFIED IN THIS MANUAL CARRIED OUT BY UNAUTHORIZED OR UNSKILLED
PERSONNEL.
• LIMITATIONS
The descriptions of the assembly phases refer to a "general" computer, so specific models will not be mentioned, unless a certain installation procedure
concerns exclusively one computer type.
• RESPONSIBILITY
The installer must carry out workmanlike installations and ensure to the end user the perfect operation of the whole system both with ARAG
components only and other brands' components.
ARAG always recommends using its components to install control systems.
The installer will be held responsible for any malfunction if he decides to use other brands' components even without actually changing the system
parts or harness.
The compatibility check with components and accessories of other manufacturers shall be carried out by the installer.
If the computer or the ARAG components installed together with other brands' components get damaged because of what stated above, no direct
or indirect warranty will be provided.
1 RISKS AND PROTECTIONS BEFORE ASSEMBLY
All installation works must be done with battery disconnected, using suitable tools and any individual protection equipment
deemed necessary.
Use ONLY clean water for treatment tests and simulations: using chemicals during simulated treatment runs can seriously
injure persons in the vicinity.
2 INTENDED USE
The device you have purchased is a computer which, when connected to a valve or suitable control unit, makes it possible to control all phases of
treatment in agricultural applications directly from the cabin of the farming machine it is installed in.
This device is designed to work on agricultural machinery for spraying and crop spraying applications.
The equipment is designed and manufactured in compliance with UNI EN ISO 14982 standard (Forestry and farming machines -
Electromagnetic compatibility - Test methods and acceptance criteria), harmonized with EMC - 2014/30/EU Directive.
3 PRECAUTIONS
• Do not aim water jets at the equipment.
• Do not use solvents or fuel to clean the case outer surface.
• Do not clean equipment with direct water jets.
• Comply with the specified power voltage (12 VDC).
• In case of voltaic arc welding, remove connectors from BRAVO 350 and disconnect the power cables.
• Only use ARAG genuine spare parts and accessories.
• Bravo 350 can control hydraulic valves to open/close the multi-row sprayer booms.
THE COMPUTER DOES NOT FEATURE EMERGENCY STOP DEVICES: THE MACHINE MANUFACTURER
MUST PROVIDE ALL NECESSARY SAFETY DEVICES FOR THE HYDRAULIC VALVE CONTROL.
IT IS THE MANUFACTURER’S RESPONSIBILITY TO ENSURE THAT THE MACHINE IS SAFE TO USE,
ALSO BY MEANS OF ACOUSTIC AND/OR VISUAL SIGNALING DEVICES.

> Zero calibration: it accesses the "zero" calibration of the level sensor.
The level sensor zero must be calibrated when:
- the presence of fluid inside the tank is displayed, even when it is empty.
- a calibration curve already made with the same tank by means of another Arag computer is loaded. The tank must be empty.
Press OK to reset the sensor residual signal.

> Recovered liq. count:
During spraying it is possible to recover part of the sprayed product to reduce costs, pollute less and evaluate the quality of the spraying.
This menu is only visible when the level sensor is active.
This function is disabled by default, but enabling it will enable the computer to count the liquid recovered during spraying, which will be the
difference between the sprayed fluid and the fluid applied to the plant.
