When using parallel guidance only
 
This section is of interest to you if you have a simple system without an ISOBUS job computer. For example, the TRACK-Guide III terminal without additional applications. You can also operate other terminals according to these instructions, as long as you do not connect an ISOBUS job computer and the ISOBUS-TC application remains in “Standard” operating mode.
 
 
1.
Drive to the field.
2.
If you have already worked on this field in the past, load its field data. If you want to work on a new field, you must ensure that no other field data is loaded. In this case, you must discard the opened record.
3.
If you have a prescription map, you can import it now. See: If you are working with shape prescription maps
4.
In the “Virtual ECU” app, activate the virtual job computer of the machine to be used. You can find more information on this in the instructions of the terminal.
5.
Start a new navigation.
6.
Check whether the terminal has properly detected the driving direction.
7.
If you are using a GPS receiver that works with EGNOS or WAAS, set the reference point.
8.
As a standard, the “Parallel” guidance mode is activated. If you do not want to work with straight, parallel tracks, change the guidance mode.
9.
If you want to work with overlaps, adjust the desired distance between the guidance lines.
10.
Start the recording.
11.
Create the first AB line.
12.
Mark the field boundary (optional).
13.
If you want to work the headlands separately, activate it.
14.
Process the field on parallel tracks. To do so, you can use the lightbar or a steering system.
15.
If you are approaching an obstacle, you can mark its position.
16.
After finishing work, save the data.
17.
Copy the data to a USB memory device to store it on a PC or view with TRACK-Guide Desktop.
