Where do I enter application information?

back

Application information used for product amount calculations is first entered in the Settings window. Display this dialog for a study by selecting Window, Settings from the ARM menu bar, and then click the Application tab.

Application Volume: Application information that applies for all treatments in a protocol or trial is defined as Application or Spray Volume information. Think of this Application Volume as a "global" setting for the study.

ARM uses this Settings information when calculating product amounts for spray/seeding plan, labels, and product amount summary reports. If the current trial uses more than one application volume, enter in Settings the spray application volume that applies for a majority of treatments in the trial.

The Treatment editor includes an Application Volume treatment field (column). Use this field to identify application volume for a treatment component line that is different from the volume listed in Settings. ARM uses the application volume in Treatments when calculating product amounts for this treatment component.

Mix Size: Information describing treatment mix size to use for all treatments in a protocol or trial in the Settings window. Liquid mix sizes are use units of liters or gallons. Specify a decimal fraction if applying in milliliters, such as .005 liters for a 5 ml mix. For seed treatment studies, use the g seed (grams seed) or lb seed (pounds seed) choices to specify the amount of seed to mix.

Set mix size to 0 if you will not make a liquid mix to apply treatments, such as when all products are applied undiluted (granules, etc.). ARM will not print Spray Volume and Mix Size headings on a spray sheet report when mix size is 0.

The Treatment editor includes a Mix Size treatment field (column). Use this field to identify mix size for a treatment line that is different from mix size in the Settings window. ARM uses mix size in treatments when calculating product amount for any treatment line with mix size entered in treatments.
