control when coverage mapping is in auto section control mode.
– Press the master switch again twice rapidly to disable override.
Previous settings are re-enabled.

Under control mode, gaps or overlap can be avoided.
Avoid Gaps - prevents sections from turning on if a gap is equal to or
smaller than the set gap size that is detected.
Avoid Overlap - Sections turn off if a previously covered area is detected.
GAP SIZE
Gap size adjustment can only occur if Avoid Gaps is selected as the control

•
Unlimited - default setting that does not acknowledge a field boundary

•
Field Boundary - implement sections automatically turn off when
vehicle leaves the selected boundary.
•
Safety Zone - A new perimeter is automatically created by shrinking
the field boundary by half a swath width. The safety zone display on
the map as a light blue line next the the field boundary. Automatic
section control shuts the sections off outside the safety zone even
