Operation for John Deere GreenStar Equipped Machines

Overview

The C500 control box has John Deere GreenStar capability. This option allows the C500 to have, "On the Go",
rate adjustments done by the GreenStar system. The GreenStar C500 control has two different operational
modes. One is called (SL) for regular C500 operation. It also has a GreenStar mode called (GS). Depending
on what mode the C500 box is set in, will determine how it will work. You will see what mode the C2000 box is
set in, every time you turn the box on.
Function of the Buttons
On / Off: This will turn the C500 box on from the idle state. It also initiates the clean out sequence and turns
the box off. This button will take priority over any other buttons when pushed. This button also allows the
operator to switch between the SL and GS modes
Start / Stop: This button is inactive in the GS mode
Select Rate: This button will allow you to see what the current inoculant dosing rate is.
Tons Treated: This button will go to a simple diagnostic screen, see below for more information. Also this
button will allow you to reset the bottle empty function. See below for more info. You will not be able to see
how many tons you have treated in the GreenStar mode ( GS ) of the C500. You can see how much inoculant
has been applied by going to page two of the "Field Totals" screen, on the GreenStar monitor. Push the
following buttons in sequence on the GreenStar monitor.

Switching Between Operating Modes

To switch between modes the operator must have the C500 control box in the off state with the power harness
attached. Press and hold the ON/OFF button. Keep holding the button, for about 5 seconds, until it starts to
toggle between the two operating modes (SL and GS). It will toggle between the two modes every 3 seconds
after that. When the mode you have selected is displayed, let go of the button. It will stay in the selected mode
until you repeat this procedure. One note: Every time you switch modes it will reset tons treated and
bottle empty to Zero.
