Note: Track vehicles will not turn the steering axle, they will start turning at a constant curvature of the command that has been
given them.
The following are the controls available on the Actuator screen:
• Hard Left – Pressing this button turns the steering axle to the 100% left position and holds it there.
• xx% Left – The xx represents the Steering Left/Right Percentage that the slider bar has been set to. Pressing this button
will turn the steering axle to the percentage of arc selected and hold the wheel there. The lower the percentage, the closer to
the center position the steering axle will turn to.
• 0% – Pressing this button will turn the steering axle straight ahead.
• % Right – The xx represents the Steering Left/Right Percentage that the slider bar has been set to. Pressing this button
will turn the steering axle to the percentage of arc selected and hold the wheel there. The lower the percentage, the closer to
the center position the steering axle will turn to.
• Hard Right – Pressing this button turns the steering axle at 100% right position and holds it there
• Stop – Pressing this button stops all commands to the vehilce.
• Steering Left/Right Percentage – This slider controls the change percentage for the xx% Left and xx% Right buttons.
Changing these values allows the user to test how the valve reacts at different loads. Generally the steering valve will not
turn with a signal percentage below 30%.
• Minus (-) and Plus (+) Buttons – Pressing these buttons adjusts the Steering Left/Right Percentage Slider Bar.
Manual Steering Override (for Steering Encoders)
Figure 2-82 Manual Steering Override
Some vehicle profiles use an encoder to detect motion at the steering wheel.
In these cases, the Manual Steering Override screen will show a red or green light.
• Red Light – No steering wheel motion detected.
• Green Light – Steering wheel motion detected.
OnTrac2 ECU
When the vehicle profile is connected to a Mechanical Steering Device or OnTrac2+, the ECU screen is replaced by the
OnTrac2 ECU screen. This screen provides a lot of the same information as the ECU screen but adds a few extra options to
monitor.
