THE SMARTBAR CONFIGURATION MODE
(continued)
HDL
Headlands Mode
HDL configuration is not present if Swath Type (SWT) is set to ROW, PVT, CON, SQ,
RT or ONE. SELECT button selects between OFF, SEP (Separate), CMB (Combined),
or DHC (Double Headlands C pattern). When OFF is selected, no headlands control
features are active. When CMB is selected, A-B line marking and headland marking
are combined. The first two points will be A-B line swath marks. After the A-B line is
marked and the swath direction is set, the display will show “HDL” (left side) and 03
(right side). The operator drives to the next headland position and presses the
SELECT button. Each point is defined in this way. Pressing the DOWN button at the
last display will show ACR (Acreage) and the right display will alternate between whole
acres and decimal part of acres. If the units are metric, then “ACR” is replaced by
“HET” (Hectares). When SEP is selected, headlands and A-B line marking are
separate. When DHC is selected, the Double Headlands C pattern is used. See the
section “Double Headlands C pattern” for details.
ATO
Along Track Offset distance
The Along Track Offset distance adjusts the antenna position along the direction of
machine movement (COG). This adjustment moves the DGPS antenna position rela-
tive to the desired Along Track guidance point. Positive settings move the antenna
ahead of the guidance point. (for example: ATO set to +10 ft sets the guidance point
at the boom if the antenna is mounted 10 ft ahead of the boom). Negative settings
move the antenna behind the guidance point. Press SELECT button to set the Along
Track Offset distance.
XTO
Cross Track Offset distance
The Cross Track Offset distance adjusts the antenna position across the direction of
machine movement (COG). This adjustment moves the DGPS antenna position rela-
tive to the desired Cross Track guidance point. Positive settings move the antenna
to the right of the guidance point. (for example: XTO set to +2 ft aligns the guidance
point with the boom center if the antenna is mounted 2 ft right of center). Negative
settings move the antenna to the left of the guidance point. Press SELECT button to
set the Across Track Offset distance.
Note: The following setting and range details apply to both ATO and XTO offset distance setting.
The SELECT button increases the offset distance by 5 ft (FT) 5.0 ft (FTF), or 10 decimeters
(MT). The DOWN button decreases the width by 1 ft (FT), 0.1 ft (FTF), or 1 decimeter (MT).
You can hold down each button to quickly change the settings.
The following table shows ATO and XTO setting ranges for each units setting (SYS UTS):
Note: If Along Track Offset and/or Cross Track Offset are not being used, be sure ATO and/or XTO
are set to 0. When using ATO or XTO, an accurate machine movement direction (COG) is
used to adjust the antenna position. COG measurement requires the machine to be moving.
Whenever machine speed is too slow for accurate COG measurement, the Angle LED’s will
show a special pattern indicating the speed is low (only outside amble Angle LED’s are on).
When the machine is stopped, the low speed indication is displayed and the previous valid
COG is used for ATO and XTO antenna adjustment.
Locating the antenna at the machine/boom center is recommended rather than using XTO
setting, where practical.
