Autopilot is compatible with the Trimble Autopilot system. For the Autopilot Tab and Lightbar to appear,
you must have:

• Purchased the Autopilot unlock code.

• Connected the Autopilot system in your vehicle.

• Enabled Autopilot guidance on the Run screen.

When an active configuration is selected at the Run Screen and the system is communicating with an
Autopilot navigation controller, the Autopilot tab and lightbar will be present.

• Guidance lights
The guidance lights indicate directional changes as you steer the vehicle right or left. You can specify the
distance each guidance light indicates (for example, 6 inches or 1 foot).

• Cross-Track Error (XTE) and Distance from AB Line
The Cross-Track Error indicates your vehicle's distance from the AB Line.

This Distance from AB Line number, located to the right of the XTE acronym, shows the length between the
location of your vehicle's GPS antenna and the guidance line of that vehicle's pass.

• Pass Number
The number of passes (either right or left) from the AB Line.
