The book doesn't really say. It does say that for a ppa of medium beans, 2,600 per pound, that a 30 driver and 14 tooth driven is about 123 pounds per acre.

Here is the JD 7000 soybean cup page chart.

Sorry my used manual is quite used, but think you can make it out.

You have to kinda start somewhere, and adjust up or down based on your seed size and your speed.

If you are doing the bean -meters - didnt read your question close enough a few minutes ago - I believe they plant 5x the rate of the corn finger meters so you use the corn chart x5.
