Using the OmniSeed Viper Pro System
CANbus Rate Control. The Viper Pro field computer is capable of controlling product application directly via a
Raven CANbus using Raven product nodes. Each node provides a single control channel for controlling the
application of a single product. So, if the Viper Pro is connected to a CANbus with a single product node, the
Viper Pro will monitor or control for one product during an active job. Up to five product nodes may be
connected to the Viper Pro to control any combination of liquid, granular, injection or spinner channels as
necessary. In this configuration, the Viper Pro is directly controlling the product control valves and other
hardware.
Note:
A multi-product variable rate key must be purchased and authorized in order to provide multi-
product VRA within a job. Contact a local Raven dealer to acquire the activation key and refer to
the Registering the Viper Pro section on page 23 for assistance entering the activation code on the
Viper Pro field computer.
Swath Guidance
When the swath guidance feature is enabled, the Viper Pro may provide on-screen guidance paths based
upon the programmed machine or equipment width. The swath guidance path displayed on the Viper Pro
provides a quick reference to the vehicle location in relation to previous coverage and may be used with an
automated steering system such as the Raven SmarTrax systems to automatically steer the vehicle using the
displayed guidance path.
The Viper Pro is capable of providing guidance for several crop or field patterns to suit field conditions and
application types.
Liquid Section Control
The liquid section control feature allows the Viper Pro to automatically turn liquid product sections on or off by
referencing the coverage map. While Viper Pro creates the coverage map, the system references previously
applied areas and the vehicle location to automatically turn liquid sections off in turn as the implement crosses
over previously applied areas. As sections re-enter un-applied area, the Viper Pro turns the liquid section back
on.
See Chapter 8, OmniSeed Section Control , for more information on using the OmniSeed section control
feature with the Viper Pro field computer.
