A monitoring apparatus for a multi-row seed planting machine (10), includes a programmed microprocessor (34). The microprocessor receives and stores data corresponding to the seed and distance sensed signals from all of the sensors 16, 18, 21 simultaneously. A user accessible control panel (46) delivers to the microprocessor data corresponding to the output signal characteristics of a given distance sensor in response to travel over a given distance increment. The microprocessor includes means for calculating the number of seeds dispensed per unit distance travelled in accordance with the characteristics of the given distance sensor. <IMAGE> |
