SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
2. System Description
ULTRA GUIDANCE PSR ISO is an automatic steering system for all vehicles which feature full hydraulic steering
capability or for vehicles which are set up preliminary for an ISO compatible automatic steering system. It is
possible to automatically steer self propelled machinery in applications like farming, forestry and specialty
crops like vegetables.
ULTRA GUIDANCE PSR ISO uses various sensors depending on the mode of operation to steer a vehicle along
existing tracks, structures or with the help of satellite supported positioning.
Attention!
ULTRA GUIDANCE PSR ISO is designed to support the driver to operate the machine more
efficiently. When using the ULTRA GUIDANCE PSR ISO, the driver is obligated to observe his surrounding
area and the machine. He should shut down the system in any dangerous situation, and revert to
steering by hand.
2.1.
Various Modes of Operation
ULTRA GUIDANCE PSR ISO has three different application modes:
1) PSR hBasic
integrates the steering system into the hydraulic system of the vehicle. It can operate with vari-
ous hydraulic systems (constant flow or load sensing).
Advantages:
•
Base installations on various vehicles for simple quick change
of components.
•
Improves steering performance through quick response times.
•
Ideal for operating speeds exceeding 10 mph.
2) PSR eBasic
utilizes an electric motor to activate the steering wheel.
Advantages:
•
Simple installation.
•
Inexpensive base installations.
•
Ideal when using several vehicles.
3) PSR ISO
means, that the steering valve is controlled via the existing ISOBUS in the vehicle. It is therefore
suitable for all vehicles which are set up preliminary with ISOBUS steering.
Advantages:
•
Plug-and-Play simple installation.
•
Base installation.
•
No mechanical changes on the vehicle.
