- Call up the parameters for the marked tractor profile.- ⇨
- The parameters are displayed.
Name
Name of the tractor profile.
Connection with ISOBUS-TC?
With this parameter, you can set whether the Tractor ECU application should communicate with the ISOBUS-TC application. In doing so, it transmits: Counters, work position, position of the GPS receiver.
Deactivate this parameter only if the terminal is used as a secondary terminal and the GPS receiver is connected to a different terminal.
Speed
Configuring the speed sensor. This measures the speed.
Possible values:
- ▪
- “deactivated”
- No sensor measures the speed.
- ▪
- “Wheel sensor”
- A wheel sensor is connected to the terminal. The wheel sensor must be calibrated.
- ▪
- “Radar sensor”
- A radar sensor is connected to the terminal. The radar sensor must be calibrated.
- ▪
- “GPS receiver”
- The speed is calculated using GPS.
- ▪
- “Unknown sensor via CAN”
- A wheel sensor or a radar sensor is connected to the terminal via CAN.
- ▪
- “Radar sensor via CAN”
- A radar sensor is connected to the terminal via CAN.
- ▪
- “Wheel sensor via CAN”
- A wheel sensor is connected to the terminal via CAN.
Pulses per 100 m
This parameter is only required if you have selected one of the following speed sources: Wheel sensor or radar sensor. In other cases, any value entered here will be ignored.
The speed sensor calibration results appear under this parameter.
Work position sensor
With this parameter, you can set whether there is a work position sensor and how its signal reaches the terminal.
There are three parameters that can be used to configure the work position sensor:
“Mounting position and connection” parameter
Possible values:
- ▪
- “deactivated”
- No sensor measuring the work position.
- ▪
- “Front via connector B”
- A work position sensor, is located on the front hitch or on the implement mounted on the front hitch. It is connected to the terminal via connector B. The work position sensor must be configured.
- ▪
- “Rear via connector B”
- A work position sensor, is located on the rear hitch or on the implement mounted on the front hitch. It is connected to the terminal via connector B. The work position sensor must be configured.
- ▪
- “Unknown sensor via CAN”
- There is a work position sensor determining the work position of the implement. It is connected to an ISOBUS job computer or to a different terminal. The signal reaches the terminal via CAN.
- ▪
- “Front via CAN”
- There is a work position sensor determining the work position of the implement at the front of the vehicle. It is connected to an ISOBUS job computer or to a different terminal. The signal reaches the terminal via CAN.
- ▪
- “Rear via CAN”
- There is a work position sensor determining the work position of the implement at the rear of the vehicle. It is connected to an ISOBUS job computer or to a different terminal. The signal reaches the terminal via CAN.
- ▪
- “TRACK-Leader AUTO”
- As soon as the steering system is activated, the system assumes that the implement is in work position.
“Sensor Type” parameter
If a work position sensor is connected to the terminal via connector B, you must tell the terminal the principle according to which the sensor functions.
Possible values:
- ▪
- “analog”
- You are using an analog work position sensor, which measures the height of the hitch linkage as a percentage.
- ▪
- “digital”
- You are using a digital, ISO-compatible work position sensor in accordance with ISO 11786. The sensor is connected to the terminal via the signal socket.
- ▪
- “ME-sensor Y”
- You are using a work position sensor provided by Müller-Electronik. The sensor is connected to the terminal.
“Inversion” parameter
As a standard, the terminal assumes that the implement is in work position as soon as the work position sensor sends a signal. However, if the work position sensor functions inversely, you have to set it here.
Possible values:
- ▪
- “Yes” - implement is in work position when the sensor is not occupied.
- ▪
- “No” - implement is in work position when the sensor is detecting something.
PTO shaft speed
Configuring the PTO (power take-off) rotational speed sensor. It measures the rotational speed of the PTO.
Possible values:
- ▪
- “deactivated”
- No sensor measures the rotational speed of the PTO.
- ▪
- “Revol. sensor - front”
- A rotational speed sensor that is fitted onto the front PTO.
- ▪
- “Revol. sensor - rear”
- A rotational speed sensor that is fitted onto the rear PTO.
Impulses per revolution
Number of impulses per revolution that are transmitted by the PTO through the selected PTO sensor.
Warning - Incomplete geometry
With this parameter, you can set whether warning should appear if the geometry was configured incompletely.
A geometry is then recognized as incomplete if the distance C is 0 cm.
No tractor geometries are used for self-propelled vehicles or if the GPS receiver is installed on the implement. In this case, deactivate the parameter so that the warning does not appear unnecessarily.
