The Jackal Monitor is a compact multi-function monitor for use on almost any machine, and capable of multiple functions simultaneously – e.g. In a 4-bin Airseeder application a single Jackal can monitor and display several shafts, bin levels, air pressure and tine/plow depth.

It has a total of 10 inputs available, and a single output. The inputs can all have both high and low alarm thresholds set which can trigger the output for emergency shutdown, batching functions, audible and visual alarming, etc.

It has multiple trip memories as well as an overall total memory allowing the operator to track numerous jobs in a period of work. The Jackal can be put ‘on hold’ by the operator or automatically by a suitable signal from the machinery, so that periods of machine operation that should not accumulate as a work total can be excluded from the trip totals.

The monitor has a large sunlight-readable and illuminated LCD for easy operation day or night, and the onboard calibration wizard makes setup a breeze! It’s simplified with the ability to enter either a factor (pulses per unit) or simply drive/run a set amount while the unit is counting the pulses and let the system calculate its own factor.

Standard Option Kits Available (select above):

Monitor Only Kit:  This is all you need if you're replacing an older 1100 areameter, and your speed sensor and cable are still ok. This kit includes a Jackal monitor, suction mounting bracket, 5m power cable, 2x 11-way connectors, screwdriver, and a comprehensive full-colour installation and operation manual.

Speed/Area and Tacho/RPM Kit:  This kit includes everything in the monitor only kit, plus a proximity sensor kit and a 5m sensor cable.

Speed/Area Meter Kit (GPS):  This kit includes everything in the monitor only kit, plus a GPS speed sensor as shown in third photo, which eliminates the need for proximity or magnetic type speed sensors and cables, making installation much easier and quicker.

Some of the many functions possible:

Area Meter
Tacho / RPM Meter (engine, shaft, spinner, fan, etc)
Flow Meter
Batch Meter
Rate monitor
Level monitor (liquid or solid)
Counter
Pressure monitor
Temperature monitor
Depth meter (seeders, ploughs, etc)
Wheel slippage monitor (eg: wheel speed vs GPS speed)

Great features include:

Easy wizards for fast setup of Area & Speed Meter using either a standard wheel speed sensor, or a GPS speed sensor, Tacho Meter, Flowmeter, Slippage Meter & Generic Wizard
