Ahead

The Look Ahead value, Ahead, is the number of seconds ahead of the vehicle the operator desires
the software to calculate the cross track error. Based on the vehicle’s speed and trajectory combined
with the look ahead value, CenterLine can determine where the vehicle will be with respect to the
current guideline. This setting will vary based on the operator’s driving ability and preference. This
value is only used during Parallel Guidance. It is not used during Headland Guidance or Circle Pivot.
A look ahead value that best fits the operator will result in smoother guidance operation. Typically,
this value is set to 1.5 or 2.0 seconds. To adjust Ahead settings, select followed by
the Enter button. Use the Arrow buttons until is displayed in the text window. Press the
Enter button and use the Arrow buttons to adjust the value. Press the Enter button to save the set-
tings and return to the Guidance setup menu.
