Direction to Swath
The guidance parameters, Direction to Swath and Distance to Swath, are used to define the spatial relationship
between the GPS antenna and the product delivery location. Examples of a product delivery location would be the
boom on a sprayer or the spinner box on a fertilizer spreader. The position of the swath with respect to the GPS
antenna will be used to accurately create an As Applied map. The Direction to Swath parameter defines the direction
from the GPS antenna to the delivery location, see Figure 3-6. The GPS antenna should always be mounted on the
center-line of the vehicle.
To change the Direction to Swath value; highlight the Direction to Swath menu item and press . The Direction to
Swath dialog box will appear. Select the desired position value using the arrow keys , once the desired posi-
tion is selected, press to return back to the Guidance setup menu, see Figure 3-7
