2. General description
GLM kit is a system that allows to increase the performance of the combine harvester (in
ha/h) installing sensors in the sieves and straw walker. It is also possible to add an
optional sensor inside the recovery channel in order to allow the operator to adjust the
sieves with precision. By means of a graphical interface with histograms and buzzer it will
inform the operator when losses exceed the set loss threshold in order to achieve
maximum operation speed.
The system only operates with the ECU GLM control unit:
Figure 1 - ECU GLM (code 40CEN-GLM-0001)
CALIBRATE THE LOSS SENSORS PRIOR TO USE:
1) WITH THE MACHINE STATIONARY, BRING THE SYSTEM TO THE
MAXIMUM OF THE REVS.
2) WORK SCREEN GRAPHS MUST NOT INDICATE LOSSES.

3.1 Virtual Terminal assembly
To assemble the Virtual Terminal, proceed as follows:
•Screw the suction bracket onto the rear part of the Virtual Terminal using the supplied
screws
•Fasten the suction bracket onto a clean flat surface. Otherwise, the Virtual Terminal
can detach itself and fall during operations
Note:
we recommend installing the Virtual Terminal in front of the operator to make
it easier to use during the work cycle.

3.2 Sensor installation
The GLM KIT can be fitted with the following types of sensor:
•Proximity inductive sensor, NPN, 12V, N.A.
•Capacitive sensor, NPN, 12V, N.A.
3.2.1 Speed sensor installation
You can install the speed sensor anywhere there is mechanical movement, on the wheel
(front or rear wheel) of the agricultural vehicle/machine or applying a metal reference
protruding by at least 7 mm (Figure 5- ref. <C>).
Adjust the distance between the sensor and the bolts to 2-3 mm (Figure 5 –ref. <B>).
Fasten the sensor supporting bracket (supplied) securely to a fixed part of the vehicle
structure. Fasten the sensor to the bracket using the nut and the lock nut.
!
Warning
The sensor cable should be covered with a rubber sheath.
