Control Box 1.2
The Solid Base
The Control Box 1.2 is the ideal starter module and is characterised by its compactness. It controls the fundamental seeding functions and is compatible with selected machine sensors. Adjustment of the speed of the seeding shaft and fan is easy, quick and straightforward.
Functions
- Electronic control and monitoring of the seeding shaft
- Electronic control and monitoring of the electric fan and the spreading plate
- Electronic adjustment of the spread rate during operation
- Calibration test
- Acoustic and visual error warning
- Emptying
- Device monitoring (in combination with implement sensors. Example: Pressure monitor)
- Possibility of fill level alert (in combination with implement sensors. Example: Fill level sensor)
Control Box 5.2
The Bestseller
The Control Box 5.2 is the most popular version of the APV control boxes and includes the following functions: Precise speed calibration, regulation of the electric fan and automatic execution of the calibration test.
Functions
- Electronic control and monitoring of the seeding shaft
- Electronic adjustment of the spread rate during operation
- Emptying and automatic calibration test (only weighing!)
- Calibration test: Display possible in kg/ha, grains/m² and g/m²
- Speed calibration
- Headland management (in combination with tractor linkage sensor)
- Automatic adjustment of spread rate to travel speed (in combination with the speed sensor)
- Device monitoring (in combination with implement sensors. Examples: Pressure monitor and fill level sensor)

- Speed indicator and monitoring with hydraulic fan (fan speed (rpm) sensor)
Control Box 5.7
The Multi-Tasking Wonder
If you want to operate two Pneumatic Seeders in parallel and independently of each other, Control Box 5.7 is the perfect choice for you. To do so, you need an additional adapter cable1 for the use of two PS. The control box is compatible with all sensor systems. When using two PS at the same time with an electric fan, pay attention to fluctuations in the air output!
Functions
- Regulation and monitoring of the seeding shafts through the electronics
- Electronic adjustment of the spread rate during operation
- Emptying
- Automatic calibration test (only weighing!)
- Calibration test: Option of displaying in kg/ha and seeds/m²
- Calibration of the speed
- Headland management (in conjunction with tractor linkage sensor)
- Automatic adjustment of the spread rate to the forward speed (in conjunction with speed sensor)
- Implement monitoring (in conjunction with implement sensors such as pressure monitors and a fill level sensor for each seeding shaft)
- Premetering
- Calibration test right at the implement (in conjunction with the calibration button)
- Regulation of the electric fan
- Independent controlling of up to two seeding shafts and an electric fan
- Total hours and daily hours counter
- Total hectares and daily hectares counter
- Selection of different languages
Control Box 6.2
The Touch Controller
The Control Box 6.2 is easy to handle, has a large colour touch screen and is protected through a high-quality aluminium housing. Self-explanatory symbols enable an intuitive operation. The premetering of the seed and the creation of a seed database are application samples that simplify everyday work.
Functions (All functions of the Control Box 5.2)
In addition:
- Operation via colour touch screen
- Robust aluminium housing
- Seed library (saving of calibration tests)
- Automatic premetering
- Display of the speed for the hydraulic fan (with fan speed sensor)
- Update option via USB flash drive and Internet
