Working width 

This value is transmitted to the ISOBUS-TC application to calculate the processed area. 
This parameter primarily enables you to document processed areas for non-ISOBUS implements if 
you are working in TRACK-Leader without an ISOBUS job computer, and if you also use the 
ISOBUS-TC App simultaneously with ISO-XML tasks. 
In this case, no implement data is normally transmitted to ISOBUS-TC. To enable calculation of the 
processed areas in the Farm Management Information System at a later time, you can enter the 
working width here. 
You can only then use this function if you also have an operating position sensor. 
Remember to select a different vehicle profile in the tractor ECU after working with a non-ISOBUS 
implement, to not always to transfer the working width. 

 

Calibrating the speed sensor 

When calibrating the speed sensor using the 328.085ft (100m) method, determine the number of 
impulses which the speed sensor encounters over a distance of 328.085ft (100m). 
If you know the number of impulses for the speed sensor, you can also input this manually. 

 

 

  You have measured and marked a distance of 328.085ft (100m). The distance must correspond 

to the field conditions. You must therefore drive across a meadow or a field. 

 

  The vehicle with the connected machine is operational for a 328.085ft (100m) drive and is at the 

start of the marked distance. 

 

  You have connected a wheel sensor or radar sensor to the terminal. 

 

  You have selected the value "Wheel sensor" or "Radar sensor" in the "Speed" parameter. 

1.  Call up the Tractor-ECU application: 

 | Tractor-ECU 

2. 

 - Call up the list of vehicles. 

3.  Select the vehicle profile. 

4. 

 - Press.
