6 WIRING CONNECTIONS
• Use only the cables provided with the ARAG computers.
• Take care not to break, pull, tear or cut the cables.
• Use of unsuitable cables not provided by ARAG automatically voids the warranty.
• ARAG is not liable for damages to the equipment, persons or animals caused by failure to observe the above instructions.
6.1 General precautions for a correct harness position
• Securing the cables:
- secure the harness so that it does not interfere with moving parts;
- route the harnesses so that they cannot be damaged or broken by machine movements or twisting.
• Routing the cables to protect against water inltrations:
- the cable branches must ALWAYS be face down (Fi g . 8 ).
Fi g. 8
Fi g. 9
• Fitting the cables to the connection points:
- do not force the connectors by pushing too hard or bending them: the contacts may be damaged and compromise the system correct operation.
Use ONLY the cables and accessories indicated in the catalog, having technical features suitable for the use to be made of them.
6.2 Control unit (ECU) connection
WARNING: DO NOT CONNECT THE ISOBUS CONNECTOR (Fig. 6 on page 9).
IT MUST BE CONNECTED ONLY AFTER INSTALLING ALL COMPONENTS (Chap. 7 ISOBUS system cable connection).
Connect wiring harnesses as indicated under par. 5.3; each of them must be connected to the corresponding socket on control unit.
Close the unused connectors with the relevant caps provided in the package.
If they prove hard to insert, do not force them, but check the shown position.
Fi g. 10
Some connectors are supplied with separate slide.
Manually t the slide in the most convenient position allowing easy insertion and removal of the connector.
• Open connector slide (1,Fi g . 10 ).
• Position connector (2) and insert it inside socket (3), then press: during this operation, take special care not to bend electric contacts.
• Close slide (4) until it locks in place.

6.3 Securing the Seletron cables
WARNING: DO NOT CONNECT THE CONNECTORS TO THE SELETRON NOZZLE HOLDERS.
THE SELETRON ELECTRIC CONNECTORS MUST BE CONNECTED AT A LATER TIME, DURING THE PAIRING PROCEDURE
(chap. "13 Seletron connection" on page 42).
Route the cable following these rules:
1 The Seletron units are connected to the ECU (Fi g . 11 ) via two main wiring harnesses (1and 2) each made up of three types of cables:
head-end cable (3), extension cable (4)and termination cable (5);
the termination cable is indispensable in order to close circuit. The system will not operate without a termination cable.
Fi g. 11
Consider all necessary connections of the Seletron system, the cable length, and make sure there is enough space for connectors and cables.
Secure the cables with ties to protect them from damage.
Thanks to the modular concept of the system, additional EXTENSION cables can be added to the circuit to connect additional
nozzle holders and obtain the desired boom length.
To ensure proper operation of the system, observe the wiring diagram and use ONLY dedicated cables for the type of Seletron
installed (Tab. 1 - CONNECTION CABLES on page 6).
WARNING: THE CABLES DESIGNED FOR CONNECTING TWIN SELETRON UNITS ON BOOMS UP TO 24 M LONG SHOULD NEVER
BE USED ON LONGER BOOMS.
2 ECU main control valve, owmeter and pressure sensor must be installed in the front section of the machine; if needed, ONLY the sensors may
be moved to a different position and connected using the extensions listed in the catalogue. Never use an extension for any other components
unless you have so agreed with the ARAG Assistance Center.
3 Choose and install the cables so that they retain some freedom of movement at boom joints.

Fi g. 14
5 Account for any possible boom movement when positioning and xing the cables.
6 Respect the position of the connectors and do not force their insertion: the position is
correct when guides A(Fi g . 1 7 ) engage in the relevant slots.
7 Carefully check that no connections or branches are positioned near moving parts and high enough to clear possible obstacles on the ground.
Ensure that the Seletron nozzle holders do not become jammed with one another or touch any cables or delicate system areas when the boom is
closed or folded away.

11 When installing a twin or fourfold nozzle holder, make sure that all connectors are facing the same direction, or the computer might select the
wrong nozzle.
Fig. 18
For special needs it is possible to install two nozzles on boom ends that can work instead of the standard outer nozzles.
Any Seletron connectors left unused must be closed using the suitable plugs (code ECS0075). The plugs must be ordered separately.
When the connectors are plugged off, the Seletron is sealed. To avoid damaging the internal components, make sure that when using or cleaning the
system the plugs and the connectors are not bare or inserted incorrectly.

1Indicate the number of boom sections.
2Indicate the distance between spraying points (nozzle holders).
3Indicate the number of spraying points (nozzle holders) installed on each boom section.
3a Repeat the setup for each section (Fig. 36).
3b It allows to enable/disable specic boom sections. Repeat the setup for each section, by disabling the disconnected outputs.
4The displayed number of valves / Seletron that can be managed depends on the type of VT connected to the system.
The VT could be able to manage just a limited number of sections, therefore, should it not be possible to manage all nozzle doors individually, the VT
will group them so as to fully exploit the number of permitted sections.

SELETRON SYSTEM:
The operator may choose the way in
which the boom is subdivided into
different sections: this is done in order to
act on the corresponding control when
closing sections manually.
With automatic management, instead, the
computer acts on each single Seletron
separately.
