Introduction

Ag Leader Technology will offer free operating program upgrades to the
PF3000 as new capabilities are added. The new operating program is a
computer file that you must load into the PF3000. The name of the file will
always end with “.pld”

NOTE: The latest upgrade file is posted on our Internet site,

http://www.agleader.com

You can also find upgrade files for all

operating modes on the CD that shipped with your monitor.


You can install the new operating program using a memory card or by
connecting a computer to the PF3000. The recommended method of
installing a new operating program is by using a memory card.

The version of operating program that the monitor is using is displayed
when you turn on the PF3000.

Switching
Operating Modes

With the exception of Site Verification Mode, all modes have their own
upgrade file. Site Verification Mode is included with all other modes.

When switching modes, you have to install that modes upgrade file, unless
you are switching to Site Verification Mode. For example if you have
installed the Grain Harvest/Site Verification mode firmware, you must
install the Application Rate/Site Verification mode firmware to switch to
application rate mode.

The CD that came with your monitor has all the firmware versions for all
the modes. You can also download them from the internet at
www.agleader.com

After the correct firmware is installed, if you need to switch modes press
SETUP key and CONSOLE key and change “Operating Mode” setting.

Note: When installing different firmware to switch modes, the version
number should be the same. Your fields and loads and settings will not be
lost when switching firmware versions.
