This User Guide will help you learn how to set up and troubleshoot
documentation on the 2630 display. It is a supplement to the display’s
operator’s manual.
Read the operator’s manual for the following information:
Resources describe where and who performed the work to be
documented. Documentation recording will not start if Client, Farm,
and Field are not set up.
IMPORTANT: To start documentation recording, task needs to
be set to any value other than “documentation off,” which is
the factory default setting.
IMPORTANT: Client, Farm, and Field are mandatory selections. If selections are not set, documentation recording will
not start.
NOTE: Use names for Client, Farms, and Field used in other parts of your
farming operation, such as daily conversations and office software.
Spelling names correctly will help you find the fields within the office
software.

Machine Type and Name, as well as Implement Type and Name,
are mandatory input selections for documentation setup.

2. Machine Model .........................................
3. Machine Name ..........................................
NOTE: Some machines will automatically populate Machine Type, Model,

Machine Type. No input required for pre-populated selections.
5. Enter correct values for Offsets A, B, and C ................
NOTE: If machine information has been set up, offsets populate
automatically. To get information on how to measure offsets, refer to
Measuring Offsets User Guide on www.stellarsupport.com. Offsets A, B,
and C are required to calculate position of implement in relation to GPS
receiver. Offset D is only used for elevation recording.
NOTE: Accurately defined offsets result in precise documentation and
section control.

Documentation Recording Source
Documentation Recording Source must be set up correctly for
recording.
NOTE: If Recording Source is set to Auto , it cannot
be changed and no input is required.
NOTE: Recording Source Auto means that either machine or implement
controls when recording is turned on. For example, recording starts when
header is down or sections of the implement are turned on.
2. If recording source is not set to Auto, the following options are
available:
○ Documentation recording will turn on when implement
switch is moved out of default position.
NOTE: To make implement switch options work, install implement switch.
Additional Options
John Deere and ISOBUS non-Deere tractors’ option availability
depends on the tractor’s equipment and display connection to
tractor. Some or all of the following options might be available:
○ Recording begins and stops when indicated SCV is
moved.
NOTE: Any device not switched electronically, such as mechanical SCVs,
cannot be found in this drop-down list. Options are only visible if machine
supports these devices.

Implement Type and Name are mandatory input selections for
documentation setup. If those selections are not filled out,
documentation recording will not start.
NOTE: Some implements automatically populate implement type, model,
and name. Examples include John Deere planters or ISOBUS
implements. The name displayed in the input selection is a unique
identifier for the implement. Each name only exists once throughout the
entire John Deere and ISOBUS world.
NOTE: For documentation recording, input is not required if fields are prepopulated.
NOTE: Reuse names for Client, Farms, and Field in other parts of your
farming operation, such as daily conversations and office software.

Offsets include the following characteristics:
• Documentation recording takes place at Offsets A + B (sum
of Offset A and Offset B). For example, the point where
grain is cut or seeds and fertilizer are put in the ground.
• Offsets A, B, and C are the base for implement drawing on
map.
• Offset D is important for drawn implements. It is needed for
calculating the position of implements in curves.
NOTE: If implement has been set up, offsets populate automatically. For
information on how to measure offsets, refer to Measuring Offsets User

continue to step 5. Target Rate needs to be set up on user interface of
implement. The 2630 display reads this value and populates it
automatically.
A. Select Rate Unit .....................................
NOTE: Mass per area and seeds per area are available.
B. Select Rate .............................................................
IMPORTANT: Seed Rate does not control seed rate of
machine. It is for documentation purposes only.
