CHAPTER 1  INTRODUCTION
This User Guide provides information for software version
1.07.
The CenterLine 230BP software 1.07 provides the follow­ing enhancements to the system:
Applied area now includes only the area under the ac-• tive boom sections and acre counters will accurately represent applied area. Prior calculations counted all area under the entire boom, regardless of whether individual sections were on or off. Unapplied area is now considered “untreated” and • can be treated at a later time. Boundary area is calculated and displayed as a re-• sult of a headland perimeter pass in headland circuit mode. This value is held in memory through the next power cycle and is erased when the user chooses to clear the memory and begin application of a new area.
When a eld boundary is created in headland circuit •
mode, a “No Spray” zone is created outside of that
eld boundary. This boundary and “No Spray” zone is
held in memory through the next power cycle. Area information and as-applied data are now up-• dated and saved with greater frequency. Drive Sensitivity (LED spacing on the lightbar) can • now be changed in the system Setup menu. A section width of “0.0” can now be entered.• Contrast is now adjustable with the +/- keys during • the startup splash screen. Once GPS is attained, the +/- revert back to adjustment of screen Brightness. A system setting for “GPS Source” allowing a devoted • external source has been added. The default GPS source is the internal GPS receiver. DGPS LED activation will now cycle through a 2 min-• ute delay for the purpose of stabilizing DGPS perfor­mance. It is recommended guidance mode operation begin after the DGPS LED is active.
Tilt Gyro compensation is now available as an up-• grade to the CL230BP For part numbers and pric­ing, please consult your regional TeeJet Technologies representative. The upgrade includes the support of FieldPilot As-• sisted Steering. Connection to the SCM is now via CAN. Existing FieldPilot 220 customers upgrading to FieldPilot 230 must arrange to exchange their SCM. Headland Circuit mode has been improved.•

Installation - Guidance
Avoid mounting the antenna close to other electrical instal­lations (air conditioning equipment, radio antennas, etc.). Avoid coiling excess antenna cable - congure it in a “g­ure 8” shape and keep the cable at least 1.5 feet (45.72 cm) from possible sources of electrical interference.

Position the GPS antenna in the center of the vehicle at the highest point with a clear view of the sky. If the tractor cab is non-metallic, mount the metal plate in the center of the vehicle at the highest point with the VelcroTM strips and place the antenna on the plate. Route the antenna cable carefully to avoid damage and possible electrical interfer­ence.

CHAPTER 2  SETUP
The CenterLine 230BP is congured to work with Auto­matic Boom Section Control (ABSC) through the use of a SmartCable or Section Driver Module (SDM). It is also
congured to work with Assisted Steering through the use
of a Steering Control Module (SCM). A Tilt Gyro Module is available as a standard feature when a SCM is in use. It is also able to be used as an add-on feature if no SCM is present.
Setup Flow Overview:
Setup
(standard)
Power up the system by pressing the Power button. Power down the system by pressing and holding the Pow­er button for approximately four (4) seconds. At power up, the CL230BP will perform the following steps:
Display copyright and software version screen for • three (3) seconds. Display the splash screen for two (2) seconds.• Detect if GPS data are present (this occurs simulta-• neously within the display screen sequence). Display the current swath width for three (3) sec-• onds. The Area Reset screen will be displayed.• The splash screen is displayed until the (D)GPS LED • is illuminated or Setup mode is entered. Once the console begins receiving (D)GPS positions, the Op­eration screen will be displayed.

Power Up Sequence
Before starting the CL230BP, make sure the spray control­ler is powered up, the Master Switch is set to the “On” posi­tion, and the individual boom section switches are turned “Off”.
NOTE: For information regarding the use of FieldPilot 230, refer to document # 98-05137 R0.
