Calibration Menu
Entering the Calibration Menu
The Calibration Menu is entered using the Calibration Button on the Menu Soft Switch Pane on
the Operation Screen. In order to enter the Calibration Menu, the vehicle must be in Standby.
Unlike the Data Menu or the Unload Menu, the Calibration Menu requires the entry of an Access
Code before it will appear.
To enter Calibration:
1. Move the Operator Interface’s Gray Navigation Joystick, or Nav Stick left or right until the
MENU soft switch pane is displayed.
2. Press the CALIBRATION soft switch to open the Calibration Menu. The Access Code
window will appear, as shown in Figure 2.
Figure 2: Access Code Window
3. Enter the access code using one of the following two methods:
a. Connect the Supervisor USB Key.
b. Use the Nav Stick to enter the Access Code.
The default access code is 000000. For
information on changing the Access Code,
see page 5.

The Calibration Menu Items
The Calibration Menu contains all of the settings required to operate an SSC6100 system.
Settings within the Calibration Menu are broken up into two categories: Fleet-Wide Settings and
Vehicle Specific Settings.
The Calibration Menu uses a “NeverLost” menu system to ensure that navigating the settings is
easy and quick. The Calibration Menu has four subsections: the Trackback Pane, Submenus,
Menu Items, and the Soft Switches, as shown in Figure 3.

Descriptions of Calibration Values
This section will describe each calibration value in the Calibration Menu in detail. For a complete
list of default settings, see Appendix A –Default Settings and Import/Export Types on page
Error! Bookmark not defined..
Configuration
Vehicle-wide settings, such as the supervisor access and clear codes, the vehicle's name, and
enabled options.
Access Code
Changes the supervisor code required to enter the Calibration Menu or clear season data
totals. It consists of 6 numbers and/or underscores which are set individually. The default
value is 000000.
Vehicle Name
Changes the descriptive name given to the vehicle. This name is displayed on reports
and as part of filenames when exporting. It can be set to 8 alphanumeric characters.
Measurement Units
Change the type of measurement system the vehicle uses for inputs and outputs.
Enabled Options
System-wide settings that can be enabled or disabled.
Sim Speed
Shows the SimSpeed data item and the SimSpeed soft switches in the UTIL2
soft switch pane and allow the user to simulate a ground speed without having to
physically move the vehicle.
Distance Measure
Allows the user to measure and reset distances travelled by the vehicle using
soft switches on the UTIL2 soft switch pane.
When SimSpeed is in use, the SSC6100 will disable the distance measure soft
switches and distance data item.
Aux Power
Allows the use of the auger valve to run auxiliary functions. In order to operate
the Aux Power feature the base truck or attached truck implement needs to
contain a granular output.
Event Logging (Serial)
Selects the format of event logging that is transmitted to an external PreCise®
MRM or 3rd party AVL device using the RS-232 connection on the Hub.
Event Logging (OTA)
Enables the built-in cellular data modem to transfer event data to the PreCise®
MRM system in near real-time. OTA event logging requires a PreCise® MRM
subscription.
Driver ID
Enables material usage and tracking per driver by requiring them to log in before
running the spreader. Several log-in methods are available.

Momentary Spreading
Causes the standby button to operate in a momentary mode, requiring that it be
continuously held down to spread material.
Diagnostics
Adds a diagnostic button in the UTIL2 pane which is useful for observing live
system values that can be used to help in troubleshooting. This setting resets to
disabled each time the spreader is power-cycled.
Cameras
Settings to enable and control the behavior of the optional camera inputs.
Dual Camera Mode
Allows for up to two cameras to be displayed on the screen at the same time.
Camera 1, Camera 2, & Camera 3 (Full Screen)
Orientation
Configures the screen image to account for various mounting scenarios
including rear-facing and upside down mounted cameras.
Manual Select
Allows the user to select the active camera by pressing the Nav-Stick
down function.

Allows a custom configurable trigger signal to bring up the camera. See
your FORCE America representative for options to setup these custom
trigger options.

time after the trigger signal has stopped.

reporting interval will conserve the sensor’s battery power.
Wake Interval
Adjusts how often the sensor wakes up and tries to connect to the 6100
spreader control. Increasing the wake interval will conserve the sensor’s
battery power.
Acceleration Threshold
Adjusts how much vibration is required to wake up the sensor.
Increasing the threshold can help reduce battery consumption in cases
where wind or other environmental vibrations can cause the sensor to
wake up while the vehicle is not in use.

Shows the actual peak and current acceleration values as a reference to
help choose appropriate acceleration threshold values.
Aux Power Ramp Time
Sets how quickly the Aux Power output will ramp up to the set speed.
Protect Current Data
Enables a password screen when clearing “Current Data” from the Data menu. This
password can be set differently than the supervisor access code.
Current Clear Code
Changes the code required to clear the current data from the Data menu. If Protect
Current Data is Disabled, this code does nothing. The default value is 314159.
Create Driver ID
Programs a standard USB FLASH drive to become a custom driver key. For the menu to
become available, the Driver ID key option has to be selected in the Enabled Options,
Driver ID section and a USB FLASH drive needs to be plugged into one of the USB ports
on the 6100.
Ground Speed

pulse. It is only adjustable for the Custom Pickup Sensitivity type and can be adjusted by
a passenger while the vehicle is moving to help determine the correct setting required to
pick up a ground speed signal.

the pulses by driving a fixed distance.
The Axle Pulses can also be manually set. While the vehicle is moving, have a
passenger adjust the Axle Pulses up or down until the speed displayed on the screen
matches the vehicle’s speedometer.
Jump Start Speed
Stabilizes the spreader outputs at low ground speeds by simulating an artificially higher
than actual ground speed until the truck is moving fast enough. At speeds above zero,
the system immediately starts spreading at the set jump start speed until that speed is
exceeded.
