Guidance Modes
To choose a Guidance Mode:
1. Press NAVIGATION AND GUIDANCE OPTIONS tab
to
display navigation options.
2. Press GUIDANCE MODE button
.
3. Select from:
►Straight AB guidance
►Curved AB guidance
►Circle pivot guidance
►Last pass guidance
►No guidance
NOTE: Offset to adjacent guidelines will be calculated using the
guidance width, which is encoded in Machine setup
in
the Configuration options.
Straight AB guidance
Straight AB guidance provides straight line guidance based on A and
B reference points. The original A and B point are used to calculate
all other parallel guidelines.
No guidance
No guidance turns off guidance.
NOTE: No guidance mode does not delete established guide lines
or points from the console. To delete established/saved data
from the console, please refer to the Data management
section under Unit setup.
Last pass guidance
Last pass guidance offers true last pass navigation. The console will
automatically detect the nearest applied area and establish parallel
guideline based on that area.
NOTE: If a boundary is established but no application occurred
during the boundary process, guidance will not initiate.
Curved AB guidance
Curved AB guidance provides guidance along curved lines based on
an initial AB reference line. This initial baseline is used to calculate all
other guidelines.
NOTE: Curved guidance is recommended not to exceed 30° within
the AB guideline.
HINT: While working in a bounded area, the guidance pattern
extending beyond the established AB points will be straight
line guidance.
Circle pivot guidance
Circle pivot guidance provides guidance around a central location
that radiates inward or outward based on an initial AB reference line.
This initial baseline is used to calculate all other guidelines.
It is used for product application in a centre pivot eld while being
guided along a circular guideline that matches a centre pivot
irrigation system radius.

Application Boundary
Application boundaries establish areas where application is
and is not to be applied. Boundaries can be established in all
guidance modes. One exterior boundary can be stored at a time.In
correspondence to your current location, the IN BOUNDARY icon
or OUT BOUNDARY icon is displayed on the status bar once
the boundary is established.
Creating a boundary
To establish an application boundary:
1. Drive to a desired location at the perimeter of the field/
application area.
2. Press NAVIGATION AND GUIDANCE OPTIONS tab

5. Travel the perimeter of the eld/area.
6. Finish boundary:
►Travel to within one swath width of the starting point. The
boundary will close automatically (the white boundary line will
turn black)
►Press BOUNDARY FINISH button
. A straight line will
complete the boundary between your current location and the
starting point
NOTE: The BOUNDARY FINISH button
is not available for
selection (greyed out) until the minimum distance is travelled
(five-times the swath width).
Use CANCEL BOUNDARY button
under Boundary on
the Navigation and guidance options
menu to cancel the new
eld boundary process and revert to the previous boundary (when
established).
