Calibrating TRAIL-Control
WARNING
Danger of injury from trailed implement movement
When calibrating the proportional valve, the trailed implement moves automatically.
This may pose a risk to you and to persons in the immediate vicinity of the trailed implement.
◦ Ensure that nobody is in the regulation range of the trailed implement.
◦ Abort the calibration with the
function key as soon as someone approaches the
trailed implement.
▪ Prior to initial start-up.
▪ At the start of each season.
▪ When inaccuracies occur.
There are two steps involved in calibrating TRAIL-Control:
▪ Step 1: Teach-in the middle position and end stops and calibrate the slope sensor.
In this step you teach the job computer the position of the drawbar and/or the axle in the middle,
left and right positions.
The job computer calculates all intermediate positions itself.
To do so, the slope sensor must be installed. Its position may no longer be changed after this.
▪ Step 2: Calibrating the hydraulics of the proportional valve
Only for trailed implements with proportional valves
In this step, the trailed implement is automatically steered to both sides and the voltages are
measured.
The calibration runs automatically.
Teaching-in the central position and limit stops
The appearance of the screens during calibration depends upon whether your trailed implement is
steered via drawbar or stub axle.
However, the procedure is the same in both cases, only the icons look different. Look here [
23] to
see which icons appear for stub axle steering.
Phase 1: Recording the middle position
TRAIL-Control is in manual mode.
Ground is not sloped. Slope sensor must not recognize any slope. Otherwise the "Slope counter-
steering" will not work properly.
