Pitch Plow check box: check this box only if the
machine is a pitch plow (also called cantilever).
If this box is not checked, Pitch Gain, Pitch Zero,
Suggested Calibration, and Start Compensation
boxes will be grayed out and unavailable.
This setting effects the operation of Intellislope and it
is crucial that it is set correctly. When check box is
checked, it indicates that the machine being
controlled is a pitch plow and the elevation of its
cutting edge is determined by the pitch of the plow.
This must be un-checked if the machine is not a
pitch plow, such as a parallel linkage plow, trencher,
scraper or pan, where the elevation of the cutting
edge of the machine is directly effected by the
hydraulic cylinder displacement. In this case the GPS receiver must move with the cutting edge for
proper control.
The following table summarizes the interaction between the pitch plow setting and adjustments on the
Performance Setup screen
.

Comments
Pitch Gain
Yes
No effect
Pitch Gain only has effect
when the system is controlling
pitch, and thus only when
configured as a pitch plow.
Look Ahead Distance
Yes
No effect
Look Ahead Distance only has
effect when the system is
using pitch to control
elevation, and thus only has
effect when configured as a
pitch plow.
GPS-Only Gain
No effect
Yes
GPS-Only Gain only has effect
when the system is directly
controlling elevation in
systems where the hydraulic
cylinder directly controls
elevation (not a pitch plow).
