Tractor-ECU application
The Tractor-ECU application is used to compile all of the information of the vehicle on which the
terminal is mounted. Tractor-ECU can transfer this information to other apps (e.g. the position of the
GPS receiver to TRACK-Leader or SECTION-Control) or to a connected ISOBUS job computer (GPS
signal as a speed source).
The Tractor-ECU application allows you to:
▪
Create a profile for each vehicle, with specific settings.
▪
Input the sensors which are mounted on the vehicle.
▪
Enter the position of the GPS receiver.
▪
Define the GPS signal to determine the speed on the CAN bus.

Managing the tractor profiles
Tractor profiles are used to store important features of the tractor on which the terminal is installed.
This offers the following advantages:
▪
You can use the terminal on several tractors. Each time you change tractors, you can activate
the fitting tractor profile.
▪
Even if the terminal is always installed on one tractor, you can create several profiles for one
tractor.
You can use between 1 and 31 tractor profiles.
The number of tractor profiles depends on several factors:
▪
Purpose of the terminal:
– If you switch the mounted implement manually, or are using an implement for which cm-
accuracy is not required, one tractor profile per tractor is enough.
– If you are not using TRACK-Leader and SECTION-Control, you probably do not need
tractor profiles.
