Section Control (Swath Command™)
With Swath Command™, all row unit final drive chains
are clutch-controlled. Swath Command™ can turn seed
metering on and off for 4 sections of rows. Using
geolocation information you provide to the system,
seeding can be disabled when row units cross
non-planting or previously-planted areas.
Note: Swath Command™ requires one of the CANbus
monitor options (page 117) and a compatible
console.
The DICKEY-john
®
IntelliAg
®
AI-120 monitor is fully
compatible with Swath Command™. The AI-100 monitor
would require an additional DICKEY-john
®
A5 monitor
and cab harness, not included.
Swath Command™ also requires, and does not include:
• a geolocation receiver, such a Trimble
®
AgGPS
®
262
(available from Great Plains).
• coordinate augmentation data source, such as a
Trimble
®
AgGPS
®
900 RTK rover radio (available from Great Plains)
Down-Pressure Control (Row-Pro™)
Row-Pro™ provides an air cylinder and sensor in the
down-pressure assembly of each row. Each cylinder is
independently controlled by the force sensor, varying the
down-pressure by
±50 pounds (±23 kg), for a total
correction capability of 100 pounds (45 kg). This range
can fully compensate for the row unit weight change
resulting from seed consumption during planting.
Note: Row-Pro™ requires one of the CANbus monitor
options (page 117) and a compatible console.
