Instructions for Initial Startup of Ag Leader Lightbar
Beginning April 1, 2002, the instructions for initial startup of the Ag Leader Lightbar
have changed slightly. These changes apply to all Lightbars with the model number of
21A that are used in conjunction with an PF Series monitor (PF3000, PF3000 PRO and
PFavantage) running version 4.20 and lower. This model number can be found on the
serial number tag on the bottom the Lightbar and should read AgGPS
21A Lightbar.
If the Ag Leader Lightbar does not have this model number, this product bulletin can be
disregarded and the instructions detailed in the Lightbar Manual should be followed as
usual.
1. Before hooking the Lightbar to the GPS unit, the Lightbar Status setting must be
turned ON in the PF monitor. To turn on the Lightbar, press the MENU button until
you see SETUP on the bottom of the screen and press this button. Locate and press
the GPS button (may need to scroll left or right) on the bottom of the screen. A
screen similar to the one pictured below should now be displayed.

2. Lightbar status should now be highlighted. Press the EDIT button and use the up or
down arrow to change this setting to ON (Do Not press the ACCEPT button at this
time).
3. Now plug the Lightbar into the GPS connection.
4. After plugging in the Lightbar, press ACCEPT on the PF monitor. The Lightbar
should now be ready for operation. Refer to the Lightbar Manual for additional setup
and operational instructions.
If you see EZ-Guide displayed on the Lightbar or it prompts you for a swath width, the
process was not completed correctly and should be tried again. It is important to plug the
Lightbar in first, before you press the Accept button. If you still encounter problems,
please contact your local Ag Leader dealer or our Tech Support department at (515) 232-
5363 ext. 1.
