Internal Data Card Module
Figure 3:
SD Data Card Module
The internal data card reader accepts SD/MMC cards of up to 2Gb, to store data generated from harvesting, soil
sampling, or variable-rate treatment. It can also upload data e.g. treatment plans or navigation data for soil sampling.
Typically, a 64Mb card can store data for up 2500 hectares.
Cards must have a directory called "
Rds_data.xxx
" in which all data is stored and retrieved. This directory should be
automatically created when you first insert the card into the Data Module. All PF data is written to this directory. If the
folder "Rds_data.xxx" is not created automatically, manually create it in the normal way from Explorer.
NOTE : The bottom port is disabled when an SD card is inserted in the internal data card module. On removing the card, the
port will revert to the function configured on the PORT SETUP screen (Table 1).

GPS Receiver
3.3.1 ‘GPS 16’ GPS Receiver
RDS’s own GPS receiver for GPS position and speed
The receiver comes fitted with a magnetic base. Mounting on
a plastic roof will require a metal base plate (not included) to
be attached by suitable means. Run the combined
antenna/power cable into the cab.
Connect the lead directly to the top port.
NOTE: The lead also powers the unit
.
Pro-Series port settings (ref. section 1.2):
Top Port:
‘GPS ONLY’
GPS Baudrate:
9600
After the initial power-on, allow up to 5 minutes for the receiver to automatically establish its position. Subsequently
the unit should establish position more quickly.
NOTE: The GPS icon at the top of the display indicates the status of the GPS signal (refer to the Operators manual)
