Once Warning screen has been accepted, system
expects user to enter custom angles to tell system
how GCU is mounted. These angles must be
accurate. There are three angles that need to be
entered.
(X) Pitch
—Front to back rotation of GCU as
compared to vehicle.
(Y) Roll
—Side to side rotation of GCU as
compared to vehicle.
(Z) Yaw
—Rotation of GCU compared to vehicle
looking down from top.
To determine angles to enter, start with a GCU with
a rotational settings of (X=0, Y=0, Z=0). This
orientation is with GCU upside down with
connectors pointing to left side of vehicle. This is the Base Orientation Position which all rotations need to be measured
from.
÷
NOTE!: Figure shows GCU upside down with connectors pointing to left side of vehicle. This is the Base Orientation
that all angle measurements are measured from. X and Y arrows are not printed on this side of GCU and are shown
only as a reference.
Adjust angles for X, Y, and Z so that they tell the system how many degrees
it must be rotated from Base Orientation Position to match actual
orientation on vehicle. This process should only performed by someone
that has had proper training. Contact your AutoSteer dealer for support.
Besides entering angles, you have one other option:
Start Over
—Press this button to return settings back to default position
of vehicle profile selected. This will return the screen back.
Press
to save orientation and to continue to next step.
Manual Steering Override
Manual Steering Override refers to sensor that is used to detect when operator manually turns steering wheel. AutoSteer
system needs to know when to stop AutoSteering when driver wants to take over steering manually. AutoSteer system can
detect this by getting a signal from a pressure transducer, flow switch, steering encoder, electrical resistance, or other
method.
Manual Steering Override screen shows status of that sensor and allows user to adjust sensitivity of sensor. Exact screens
depend on vehicle profile detected.
÷
NOTE!: It is critically important for Manual Steering Override to be functioning and set to proper level to allow user
to disengage AutoSteer manually. Never operate an AutoSteer system without this feature working or set properly.
