I recently purchased a 494 A planter Serial#12271 and was wondering what year it was.

Can help a little. The 1240 plate type is virtually the same as the later model 494A without the gearbox. There's a series of various size drive and driven sprockets you slide on their respective shafts for the seed drive shaft speed to determine rate. The 1240 series began in the very early 70s. The 494A would be late 60s. If yours is without the gearbox, it's a later, newer model.

Can you hook up a seed monitor to one of these planters? I bought a monitor at a yard sale in good shape for $15. It lights up and whistles, owner says it came off of a 1240 4-row, it has a couple feet of wiring but no end sensors. Thanks in advance.
