Introduction
About CenterLine
CenterLine is a low-cost lightbar guidance system, controlled by a wireless remote. CenterLine
provides accurate straight-line and curved guidance, for use in spraying, seeding, and other
related jobs at a cost that rivals foam markers. The CenterLine product comes with a combination
Beacon/WAAS or WAAS only DGPS receiver, providing sub-meter, pass to pass, positioning accu-
racy. The wireless remote control is used to set-up and operate the system through menus and
options displayed on the lightbar.
CenterLine’s attractive design combines a compact size with easy to see LEDs that are fully
adjustable. Using dedicated buttons on the wireless remote, the lightbar can be dimmed to effi-
ciently run at night and brightened to be easily seen in full sunlight.
Straight or Curved Guidance
CenterLine guides along swaths of all kinds with sub-meter, pass to pass, accuracy. Select the
driving pattern and CenterLine determines the closest swath to follow. There’s no need to decide a
guidance pattern ahead of time, or to commit to a pattern for the entire job. Centerline allows the
switching of patterns in real-time, determining when a new pattern is being used and keeping the
operator informed of the current status.
Wireless Remote Control Unit
CenterLine’s ergonomic, handheld, remote control is easier to use than most TV remotes. Seven
easy to read keys allow the scrolling of menus displayed on the lightbar. The remote keypad is
backlit for night-time operation, and 3 AAA batteries (included) powers the unit for an entire sea-
son.
The small, powerful, remote permits mounting the weather-resistant lightbar outside on the hood
or in the cab. When mounted outside, wireless communication permits easy operation while the
cab stays clean and sealed from dust and contaminants.
Lightbar Shows you the Information You Want
A text display on the lightbar reports a choice of guidance information. It also warns when an area
of the field is entered that has already been applied. Guidance text information can be turned off, if
preferred. Choose two of these guidance messages to monitor progress in real-time:
• Cross-Track Error,
• Current Swath Number,
• Vehicle Speed,
• Applied Area,
• Vehicle course on the ground.
