headland Circuit Guidance

Headland Circuit guidance is used to establish a perimeter

around the application area. The CenterLine 230BP will

collect and store bounded area once the Headland Circuit

is closed. The CenterLine 230BP will allow two passes

around the perimeter of the field - the original perimeter

pass and one additional pass. Guidance is applied during

the second pass, after the first pass has been completed.

NOTE:

Booms will not operate outside of the

bounded area once it is established.

NOTE:

Steps 1 - 3 are not applicable if a SmartCa-

ble or SDM is not installed on the system.

1. Turn the controller master switch to the “On” position.

The individual boom section switches should remain

in the “Off” position.

2. To activate automatic boom section control, press the

Swath Status Switch key until Auto Mode is illumi-

nated on the console.

3. In areas where application is not desired, manually

turn “Off” the rate controller master switch to shut off

the booms. Turn the master switch “On” to resume

application.

4. Use the Guidance Mode key to select Headland

Circuit guidance.

5. Drive to the desired headland location of Point A. With

the vehicle in motion, press the Mark A-B key to

establish Point A. Drive around the perimeter of the

field. The CenterLine 230BP will automatically close

the boundary when the vehicle is within one boom

width of Point A. The Completed Circuit (hourglass)

will be briefly displayed as the perimeter is closed.

Guidance Points A and B can be established at any

time during Headland Circuit mode. These points can

be used as reference for Straight or Curved A-B guid-

ance (used during interior application). To mark Points

A and B, press the Guidance Mode key to select

either Straight, or Curved A-B mode and mark the

points at the desired locations using the Mark A-B

key. The points will be stored for future reference.

Return to Headland Circuit view by pressing the Guid-

ance Mode key until the Headland Circuit Mode

screen is once again displayed.

The CenterLine 230BP will provide navigation infor-

mation to complete a second headland circuit pass.

If Guidance Points A and B were not marked during

Headland Circuit, select a new Guidance Mode and

establish an A-B line to complete the interior applica-

tion.

6. Use the Change Page key to advance the screen

views as illustrated on page 17.

straight a-b Guidance

Straight A-B guidance provides straight line guidance

based on a reference (A-B) line. The original A-B line is

used to calculate all other parallel guidelines.
