data.
c)
Select the desired logging interval.
d)
Go to the field and load into which you will be putting data.
Result: An upper-case D and G should be in the top right
corner of the screen on the yield monitor, which indicates that
you have GPS and differential signal from the receiver. You are
now ready to harvest.
Note: The marking functions can be used while harvesting, but
keep in mind that any marks made with the GPS 2000/2100 while
harvesting are not stored on the memory card. They are stored only
in the GPS 2000/2100’s memory and will not show up on the yield
map, but on a separate map downloaded from the GPS.

Applications
The GPS 2000/2100 system was designed to provide a great deal of
versatility for alternative applications. The only limitations to usage are
availability of power and a secure mount for the antenna.
The appropriate power cable for the GPS 2000/2100 depends on the type of
vehicle you are using:
If you are . . .
Then use . . .
In a vehicle that has a
cigarette lighter,
The GPS cigarette power cable.
On an all-terrain vehicle
(ATV) or tractor,
The GPS ATV/tractor power cable.
Mount the GPS 2000/2100-display unit in a location that is secure and clear
of interference from moving parts. The provided U-bracket may suit this
requirement best.
The antenna can be mounted on any metal surface, as long as the dome side
of the antenna is pointing up towards the sky. To avoid noise problems from
vehicle electrical systems, you may need to move the antenna around the
vehicle until you find a suitable location. Finding a suitable location may
require building a small stand for the antenna so that it can be placed an
acceptable distance from interference.
After the system is securely mounted and all the wires are connected, turn
the GPS 2000/2100 on.
Note: The unit may take a few minutes to orient itself and provide a lock
on satellites and a differential source, then it is ready to run.
