Mapping a Field Boundary

Fieldware for the Legacy 6000 allows the creation of a map of the field boundary while applying
product around the perimeter of the field. A field boundary can be created in all four guidance
options; Parallel, Curved, Headland, and Circle Pivot. The field boundary data is stored in the file
that was named in the ARM Setup menu (See “ARM Setup” on page 3-31.).

When product application is started, a Map Boundary soft-key is added to the right-hand button
column in the Map page, (Figure 4-39). To start mapping the field boundary, align the edge of the
vehicle swath with the edge of the field boundary, press the Map Boundary soft-key, and select
which side of the swath is used to trace the field boundary. When the vehicle starts moving, a line
representing the field boundary is drawn off the end of the swath (Figure 4-39). When the bound-
ary mapping process has started, the lightbar displays MAP BND as well as an arrow indicating
which side of the vehicle is being used to create the boundary.Typically product is applied and the
initial guideline established while driving the field perimeter. Figure 4-40 shows the vehicle creating
the field boundary while establishing the initial guideline and applying product.

Closing or Pausing the Boundary Mapping Process

To close or pause the boundary mapping process, press the Map Boundary soft-key. A side menu
appears, with the menu choices Close or Off. Selecting Close stops the boundary mapping pro-
cess and draws a line between the starting point and the vehicle location where the boundary was
closed. Pressing Off allows boundary mapping to be temporarily stopped. To start mapping the
boundary again, press the Map Boundary soft-key and select Create on Right or Create on Left.
This starts mapping the boundary again, and draws a line between where mapping stopped and
where it is starting again.
