EZ-Guide Plus Lightbar Guidance System Getting Started Guide Getting Guidance 25
Swaths drawn on screen extend 1 km (0.62 mi) beyond Point A and Point B, and the
extensions appear as dotted lines. This makes it easier to see where the next swath is,
and to get online after the turn.
Note — The initial swath (AB Line) appears as a thin, solid line; the current swath
appears as a bold line.
AB Line pattern
Use the AB Line pattern when no headlands are
required and you drive the field in parallel straight
lines.
1. At the start of the first swath, map Point A.
2. Drive to the other end of the field, and at the
end of the first swath, map Point B.
B Tip — Set Point B part way down the swath to get guidance down the first pass, and
then reset Point B at the end of the field.
3. Turn left or right for the next swath. The next swath is automatically selected.
4. Steer the vehicle so that you center the green lights in the lightbar as you drive
forward along the swath.
Note — On straight AB Lines, if you complete a swath that is longer than the
previous one, the EZ-Guide Plus system automatically extends the guidance
path for the following swaths so that headland warnings do not appear
prematurely.
A+ pattern
Use the A+ pattern when you need guidance exactly parallel to the last AB Line, for
example when:
• driving adjacent fields
• mapping the AB Line on a road down the side of the field
• skipping an access road in a field
1. To map the start of the first swath, map
Point A.
The heading of the AB Line equals either the
previous AB heading or the manually
entered heading (if the current vehicle
heading is within ±90 degrees of the AB
heading). Otherwise the A+ heading is in the
opposite direction.
