CenterLine Real-Time Operation

Real-time Operation

Real-time guidance begins when or is selected. At this point, the GPS receiver should
be properly connected to the CenterLine lightbar and running. See Figures 7-9 for diagrams showing how the
DGPS receiver should be connected. The default guidance mode is Straight-Line Guidance and the current
guidance mode is displayed in reverse video. The current guideline information is stored in memory, along
with the field’s trajectory data, is lost when is selected, and retained when is selected.
Only information for a single guideline is stored. While in Headland mode, A and B points can be marked for
Straight-Line or Curved AB guidance.

Real-time Menu

During real-time operation, a real-time menu (See Figure 32 on page 32) is available that allows
you to switch between guidance patterns, mark A and B points for straight-line or Curved AB guid-
ance, start a new A-B line, and exit. The real-time menu is accessed by pressing Up or Down dur-
ing guidance operation. When either of these keys is pressed, the guidance messages displayed
in the text window are replaced by the real-time menu (See Figure 32 on page 32). Use Up and
Down to scroll through the menu and press Enter to select an item. The real-time menu times out
when 5 seconds have passed and no arrow keys have been pressed.

Apply On/Off

If no switchbox or boom sense cable is being used and the setting (See
“Status” on page 17) is set to off, Apply On/Off information must be provided to the CenterLine sys-
tem manually. To toggle the Apply On/Off status, scroll the real-time menu (See Figure 32 on
page 32) until or appears in the text window. Pressing Enter switches to
the status displayed.

NOTE: This does not turn the application on and off. It only notifies the CenterLine system
of the application status. and do not appear if TUS> is set to ON.
