The ISO tractor
ISOBUS tractor connection
The switching functions and data transfer between the tractor terminal
or ISO control box and the machine are operated via the ISOBUS.
Specifically tilling the site and reacting to deviating field forms or soil
compositions is possible through ISOBUS communication.
With GPS, various sensors and management systems are provided
with the necessary information in order to control the machine
optimally.
Tractor with IsoMatch
ISOBUS functionality via IsoMatch
Tractors without their own ISO terminal can work as ISO tractors with
the IsoMatch control box.
Driving speed, RPM and GPS signal on IsoMatch
If speed is not measured on the (drawn) machine, but via the tractor,
the speed sensor or the adapter cable is to be connected to the
IsoMatch to capture the speed signal from the tractor electronics. A
special cable set is required for this.

See section »Directly to the ISO 11786 in cab tractor connection in
the tractor cabin« on page 203.
The same applies for the PTO shaft RPM. The extra sensor is
available for this purpose.
The GPS signal can also be used via the RS 232 on the control box.
This is required for the GEOcontrol functionality.

Also, refer to the manual that comes with your control box.
Conversion to ISO tractor with
IsoMatch power cable set
Adapting non-ISO tractors with IsoMatch power cable set
If the tractor does not have an ISOBUS communication, it can be
added with the IsoMatch power cable set.
Hereafter, your tractor is entirely ISOBUS ready, and you can connect
and operate the machine with the IsoMatch control box.
The driving speed of your tractor (or your drawn machine) is
transmitted via the ISOBUS to the IsoMatch.
The "IM Tellus Input" cable, supplied as a standard item, can be used
for other connections.
