Questions

Which Raven consoles does the adapter work with?

The Raven Serial adapter currently only works with the Raven SCS 450. Other Raven consoles also use the same serial interface, but we have not had a chance to test it out yet.

Do I need to install anything on my sprayer?

The Raven Serial adapter is plug and play. Plug into the serial port on the back of the Raven 450, other end is USB to plug into the tablet.

Which tablet do I need?

SpraySync runs on rugged Android tablets. We recommend the Samsung Galaxy Tab Active5 (8") or the larger Active5 Pro (10"). Both are dust-proof and waterproof, and have custom-fit mounts.
