GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM (GPS)
Before a task is started, GPS must be enabled to communicate with the
receiver connected to the RS232 cable on the tractor harness. If NEMA
messages are broadcast over the CAN Bus, the RS232 connection is not
required. GPS data must be entered into the VT to specify:
• Antenna offset in relation to the center of the tractor rear axle (GPS
button)
• Antenna offset in relation to the implement rear hitch connection (setup
required in IntelliAg functionality)
To enable GPS:
1. Press the Virtual Terminal Setup button.
2. Press the Applications button to show the Additional Applications
screen (refer to Additional Applications section of this manual for
further information).
3. Enable GPS by pressing the GPS Bridge selection box, if not already
selected.
4. Press the GPS button to display the Main GPS screen. The GPS
screen identifies:
– GPS coordinates
– Altitude
– GPS signal type
– Type of correction service
– Speed and direction
Data entry is not required on this screen.
IMPORTANT: The background of the GPS button will appear in RED
when the GPS signal is lost or less than 4 satellites are
viewed. The background will appear in YELLOW if there
is no differential correction. THERE ARE NO ALARMS
INDICATING A SIGNAL HAS BEEN LOST OR REGAINED.
