Notes on the ISOBUS
standard
This section contains gener al i nformation on your machine as well as
information on:
Becoming familiar with th e machine
• Area of use
• Features
• Technical data and
• functions
The device is designed for use in agriculture. It controls agricultural
machinery and devices.
The device is designed to be used in connection with agricultural machinery and devices to control and monitor their functions. Any other
use is forbidden.
A travel sensor determines the route and dis tance travelled and a job
computer calculates the current speed. The rotary speed necessary
for the drive motor on the metering devic e is deter mined from the current speed and the pres et setpoin t for the amount of seed per hectar e.
Not all of the display device f eatures are standardised in the ISOBUS
standard. It may therefore be the c ase that a termi nal made by another
manufacturer has more or fewer selection keys. Depending on the
number and arrangement of the selection keys, the symbols identifying their assignment may be in different positions. The description
here applies only to the device specified on the title page.
The Focus 2 terminal does not comply with the ISOBUS standard. It
can only be used in conjunction with machines made by the Kverneland Group.

A claim should be made without delay to your dealer, the importer or
the manufacturer for any missing parts or parts which have been damaged during transport.
Maintain defined minimum clearances
When mounting the terminals a minimum distance of one metre must
be maintained from mobile telephones, radios or radio antennae. Unforeseen malfunctions could occu r if the distance is too small.
Ensuring a good view
The terminal must not limit the oper ator's v iew. Access to all functions
of the tractor must remain unimpaired. Accidents can arise if the operator's view is blocked or there are impairments to operating tractor
functions.
Switched power ca-
ble
> The terminal should be mounted on the tractor in such a way that
you can easily read the display and can easily reached all operating keys.
The switched power cable should only be i nstalled on the tractor by th e
dealer or a specialist workshop.
