SYSTEM COMPONENTS
Matrix Pro 570G Console
The Matrix Pro 570G is designed to provide years of service under typical agricultural operating conditions. A tight tting enclosure, combined
with rubber covers for all connectors mean that typical dusty environments will not cause operational problems. While occasional splashing of
water will not damage the unit, the Matrix Pro 570G is not designed for direct exposure to rain. Take care not to operate the Matrix Pro in wet
conditions.
Figure 1-1: Matrix Pro 570G Console Front and Back
The console needs to be cycled off and back on when changing
or attaching equipment to the Matrix Pro system.
Cleaning suggestions – Matrix consoles should be cleaned with
mild cleaners, such as glass cleaner, and a soft cloth. Take care
not to rub dust or other abrasive materials into the touch screen
surface.
• Use a soft lint-free cloth.
• The cloth may be used dry, or lightly dampened with a mild
cleaner or Ethanol.
• Be sure the cloth is only lightly dampened, not wet. Never
apply cleaner directly to touch panel surface; if cleaner
is spilled onto touch panel, soak it up immediately with
absorbent cloth.

• Cleaner must be neither acid nor alkali (neutral pH).
• Wipe the surface gently; if there is a directional surface
texture, wipe in the same direction as the texture.
• Never use acidic or alkaline cleaners, or organic chemicals
such as: paint thinner, acetone, tolulene, xylene, propyl or
isopropyl alchohol, or kerosene.
• Suitable cleaning products are commercially available prepackaged for use; one example of such a product is Klear
Screen™, or commercially available off-the-shelf retail
brands such as Glass Plus® Glass and Surface Cleaner
made by Reckitt-Benckiser.
• Use of incorrect cleaners can result in optical impairment
of touch panel and/or damage to functionality.

Optional Accessories
Fieldware Link
Catalog clients, farms, elds and jobs with Fieldware Link to take
full advantage of the Matrix Pro console. Duplicate and edit jobs
for reuse of boundaries and guidelines. Download this Matrix Pro
software for free at www.teejet.com.
A Video Selector Module (VSM) allows connection of up to 8 video
cameras to your Matrix console. The module is compact and robust,
and can be mounted in any convenient location. No interaction is
required after installation.
Steering Control Module
The Steering Control Module
performs assisted/auto steering
on straight and contour paths.
The Matrix Pro system can link
with the FieldPilot or UniPilot
system to take precise control of
the vehicle position. The operator
manages the assisted/automatic steering
system with the Matrix Pro – a benet of a
single, in-cab console.
FieldPilot
FieldPilot automatic steering drives a vehicle with tremendous,
repeatable accuracy in both straight and curved patterns by tapping
directly into the vehicles hydraulic steering system. The ability to
operate in fog or dust, day or night with high levels of accuracy
means a better return on capital investment for equipment, a more
effective application and more attentive, alert operation.
UniPilot
UniPilot assisted steering drives a vehicle
with tremendous, repeatable accuracy
in both straight and curved patterns by
controlling the steering wheel. The ability
to operate in fog or dust, day or night with
high levels of accuracy means a better
return on capital investment for equipment,
a more effective application and more
attentive, alert operation.
Articulated Gyro Module
Combined with the Steering Control Module,
the Articulated Gyro Module makes
assiste/auto steering on an articulated
tractor even better.
Foot Switch
TeeJet Foot Switch is a convenient
method of engaging assisted/auto
steering. It is connected to the system
via the SCM Harness.

www.teejet.com
Section Driver Module
Combined with software
built into the Matrix Pro
console, the Section Driver
Module (SDM) makes
BoomPilot (automatic boom
section control) possible. The SDM
should be combined with the appropriate cable
to interface with your BoomPilot system, spray controller
and/or spraying machine for quick and easy installation. Section
Driver Modules and their related cables are designed to control
as many boom sections as the spray controller to which they are
connected, up to a maximum of 15 boom sections.
GPS Antennas
TeeJet offers a full range of high-quality GPS receivers to t your
precision farming needs.
RXA-30 GPS antenna provides a higher quality GPS receiver
that can improve GPS performance in areas of sub-optimal GPS
reception.
Tilt Gyro Module
If your GPS antenna is mounted 12 feet /
3.6 meters above the ground, a
10% side slope can cause 2 feet /
0.6 meter of position error. The
TeeJet Tilt Gyro (Compensation)
Module corrects GPS position
errors caused by side slope
conditions. Mounted on a solid
structure on your vehicle, the Tilt
Gyro (Compensation) Module sends tilt corrections to complement
GPS signals from your receiver and provide corrected position data
to your guidance device.
• Diagnostic LEDs indicate status of TGM
• Weatherproof electrical connector for trouble-free operation
• Mounting holes built into housing
• Compatible with Matrix guidance systems
NOTE: If using FieldPilot or UniPilot, a TGM is already built into the
system.
The Patch Antenna provides strong performance in standard
operating conditions. The small size of the patch antenna makes it
easy to mount and unlikely to be damaged.
Figure 1-4: GPS RXA-30 Antenna
Figure 1-5: GPS Patch Antenna II
Harnesses
TeeJet Technologies harnesses are
designed for reliable operation in
harsh environments. Shielding and
weatherproof connections ensure that
the cables and electrical connections
are reliable and trouble free.
Cable Extensions
Cable extensions, or extended length
cables, are available for special applications. Contact your TeeJet
dealer for details if the standard cables provided with your system
are not long enough.

Valve Test
The Valve Test veries if steering is directed correctly. It can also be
used to test the amount of time to steer the wheels from full left to full
right (lock to lock) for non-proportional valves.
For non-proportional valves, the amount of time for left-to-right
or right-to-left (lock to lock) will be established by mechanically
adjusting oil ow through the valve.
For a UniPilot ESM, the amount of time for left-to-right or right-to-left
(lock to lock) will be established by adjusting the Max Duty Cycle
value.
NOTE: See section “Verify Operation of Hydraulics and Set the
Steering Control Rate” of your specific FieldPilot Installation
Manual for your specific lock to lock time.
1. Select Valve Test .
2. While the vehicle is moving in a slow forward motion,
turn the wheels all the way to the left.
3. Press RIGHT arrow .
4. Press the engage/disengage switch or foot switch to activate the
test. This will start a timer as well as turn the vehicle to the right.
WARNING! When using a UniPilot, the UniPilot will move the
steering wheel very quickly. Keep loose clothing, hair and
hands away from the steering wheel while preforming this
test.
Steering wheel sensor selects whether the sensor used to
automatically disengage FieldPilot is magnetic or pressure based
when the steering wheel is turned. Check your specic conguration
to determine if a Steering Wheel Switch Kit or a Pressure Sensor is
being used.

Before performing Field Level:
• Use a quality GPS receiver/antenna
• Make sure the GPS antenna is mounted as per the
manufacturer’s installation instructions
• The SCM/TGM must be securely mounted to a surface
that moves in parallel to the surface that the GPS antenna is
mounted on. For example, if the antenna is mounted to the
roof of the cab, the SCM/TGM should be mounted to another
surface on the cab, not on the chassis.
• Mount the SCM/TGM on a horizontal surface with the
connectors facing straight up and the arrow on the decal
pointing in the primary direction of travel.
• Choose a calibration site that is as level as possible
