6. Resolve Any Possible Errors
When the Muxbus Detection Process begins, each row unit will
display “N/A” (Not Available) underneath the status. But as the
Muxbus Detection process takes place, each row unit should
state “Calibrating” for a time, then should indicate “OK”, as in
the case of Row Units 1-4 and Row Unit 6, shown at left.
After calibration, the sensor status displays either one of two
different states:
OK - The sensor is working and is communicating at a 9600
baud rate.
Slow - The sensor is working, but is communicating at a 2400 baud rate.
Note: Some older KPM 1, II, and III systems have slower sensors with black connectors that communicate
at a 2400 baud rate. The KPM I, II, and III systems with blue connectors communicate at a 9600 baud rate. A
slower baud rate does not result in decreased performance.

The Sensor Information window displays hardware
information for each seed tube sensor and also each seed
sensor. Technical support may request that you look at this
window to help in diagnosing a problem. To view the Sensor
Information window, go to the Implement Tab, press the
KINZE Planter Monitor Setup button, and when the KINZE
Planter Monitor Setup window appears, press the Sensor
Configuration button. When the Sensor Configuration
window appears, press the View button.
• Hardware ID number
Unique number for each sensor on the muxbus.
• Serial Number
Varies for each individual unit of seed sensor and seed tube sensor.
• Model Number
Shared by each unit of the same model of seed tube sensor.
• Baud Rate number
Speed of transmission between the muxbus sensor and the PMM module.
