34 / FIELD PREPARATION
IMPORT A TASK OR FIELD BOUNDARY FILE
Client, Farm, Field, and Events created in Task Controller or a farm
management software tool can be saved and imported into the Auto Section
Control terminal eliminating the step of re-creating a task.
Tasks and boundary file data are saved to an SD card inserted into the
IntelliAg terminal and then transferred to the Auto Section Control terminal.
The Import button only appears when Task Controller is enabled on the
IntelliAg VT with an SD card.
Maps and boundaries created in a farm management software tool on a
computer can be saved as task data files with a specific file structure for
transfer to the terminal.
To Prepare a Field Boundary File for Export:
1. Within the farm management software create a file folder named
TaskData.
The task data file must be contained within this folder for the
terminal to recognize the files.
2. Select the file(s) to export and save with an .xml extension within the
TaskData folder.
3. Insert SD card into computer and begin export. Verify tasks are saved
and then remove SD card from computer.
To Transfer Task and/or Boundary File Data to IntelliAg Terminal:
4. Insert SD card into IntelliAg VT.
5. Press the Auto Section Control button. At the Auto Section Control
Main screen, press the Select Task button.
NOTE: Tasks created in the Auto
Section Control terminal will
NOT transfer to the IntelliAg
Task Controller application.
