INSTALLATION
5.1 Monitor position
BRAVO 350 must be placed in the control cabin of the farming machine. Observe the following precautions:
- Do NOT install the monitor in areas where it would be subjected to excessive vibrations or shocks, to prevent any damage or
accidental use of the control keys;
- Install the device in a visible position within easy reach by hand; bear in mind that the monitor should not obstruct the
operator’s freedom of movement or block his view.
Consider all necessary connections of the computer (chap. 5), the cable length, and make sure there is enough space for
connectors and cables.
Next to each connector there is the symbol identifying the function performed. For any reference to system configuration, see
chap. 5.

INSTALLATION
5.4 Installation of ultrasonic sensors
The computer does not include the ultrasonic sensors; if you wish to install them, purchase two sensor kits code 46738000.500.
Each kit includes an ultrasonic sensor and an adapter cable.
Computer correct operation is ensured only if ARAG-distributed sensors are used: use of unsuitable sensors not provided by
ARAG automatically voids the warranty. ARAG is not liable for any damage to the equipment, persons or animals caused by
failure to observe the above indications.
WE RECOMMEND INSTALLING SENSORS AT A MINIMUM DISTANCE OF 1 M FROM NOZZLES:
• TO AVOID THAT PLANT DETECTION IS DISTORTED BY THE SPRAYED FLUID.
• TO ALLOW OPENING VALVES WITH THE CORRECT ADVANCE, IN ORDER TO ACCURATELY SPRAY THE PLANT.
nozzles
ultrasonic sensors
Based on system configuration, on your computer and on the height of the plants to be sprayed, agree with the user whether sensors have to detect
the foliage or the trunk of the plant.
Whenever possible, it is recommended to always position sensors in front of the foliage, at a height allowing them to detect its widest part (A, Fig. 7);
should this not be possible, sensors will have to detect the trunk, hence their positions will have to ensure trunk correct detection (B,Fig. 9), excluding
brushwood (Fig. 8, too low position) or part of the foliage (Fig. 10, too high position).
Based on the type of crop and on the expected result, the machine can be configured in different ways:
1) foliage can be detected and sprayed (Fig. 7).
2) trunk only can be detected, hence it will be possible to spray only based on whether the plant is present or not (Fig. 9); this situation occurs when
plant foliage is much taller than the machine and you do not want to build a scaffold for sensor correct positioning.

INSTALLATION
6.4.1 Fixing of sensors on the machine
After having located sensor position, based on the height of the plants you wish to spray, select the fixing point on the machine and fix sensors by
following the instructions provided by the manufacturer.
WARNING: sensors must be always fixed parallel with the ground and at a right angle to the plant to be sprayed (Fig. 11).

INSTALLATION
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 any damage to the equipment, persons or animals caused by failure to observe the above instructions.
Use ONLY the cables and accessories indicated in the catalog, having technical features suitable for the use to be made of
them.
6.1 General precautions for a correct harness position
• Securing the cables:
- secure the harness so that it does not interfere
with moving parts;

- if the switches of sections are set to OFF (lever down), sections will not be controlled by acting on the main switch.
- If one or more section valve switches are set to ON (lever up), opening or closing the main switch opens or closes the section valves as well.
• "P" operation mode (option No):
The section valves are controlled independently.
Main switch control functions do not affect section valve opening or closing.

8.4 Bulkheads
Bulkhead mode: indicate the type of bulkhead operation.
Manual: The bulkhead status only depends on the position of the relevant switches (L/R - OPEN/ CLOSE).
Boom status: The bulkhead status, when the switches are in the “CLOSE” position, depends on the spraying status.
Spraying enabled
With bulkhead switches in “CLOSE” position:
The bulkheads are both open (LEDs on) if spraying is in progress, i.e. at least a section of
the boom is spraying.
There is always the possibility to open the bulkheads manually, independently from each
other, by using the relevant switch.
Spraying NOT enabled The bulkheads are both open (LEDs on) regardless of spraying.
Half boom status:
The status of the left bulkhead depends on the spraying status of the left half boom (sections 1-2 spraying / not spraying).
The status of the right bulkhead depends on the spraying status of the right half boom (sections 3-4 spraying / not spraying).
Spraying is active only
in the RIGHT half boom
With bulkhead switches in “CLOSE” position:
The bulkheads are open (LEDs on) if spraying is in progress, i.e. at least a section of the half
boom (left 1-2 for left bulkhead/right 3-4 for right bulkhead) is spraying.
There is always the possibility to open the bulkheads manually, independently from each
other, by using the relevant switch.
Spraying NOT enabled The bulkheads are both open (LEDs on) regardless of spraying.

8.6 Pressure sensor
The pressure sensor has a different use according to the situations.
• Flowmeter enabled (Par 8.7 Delivery cal. sensor > Either): displays the working pressure when the machine operates within the
flowmeter limits. When the flowmeter works out of the limits, the measured pressure is used to calculate the application rate.
• Flowmeter disabled (Par. 8.7 Delivery cal. sensor > Pressure):the pressure sensor is always used to calculate the application rate
Set the type of installed pressure sensor and the relevant full scale.
