Using the OmniSeed
Viper Pro System
Overview of Job Files and Features
The Viper Pro uses jobs and job files to automatically log data in the field during operations using the
application management system. During an active job, the Viper Pro collects the following information:
•
Target rate (min and max) for each enabled product
•
Coverage area and area within a field boundary
•
Volume of product applied
•
Prescription map information (if applicable)
The job file also collects GPS location information to display the above information in an as-applied or
coverage map of the field or areas where coverage or product application has been completed. When
application or coverage has been completed for a field, the as-applied map may be transferred to a home or
office computer to archive the job data or to create customer application reports.
Note:
A DGPS receiver is not required to control product rates as long as a wheel or radar speed sensor
is connected to the Viper Pro. An as-applied or coverage map will not be created and an
application report will not be available when operating without DGPS information being input into
the Viper Pro.
A DGPS receiver is required to allow the Viper Pro to control product rate based upon GPS speed,
log as-applied or coverage map information or to provide swath guidance. Refer to the GPS Status
Screens section on page 161 for details on connecting a DGPS receiver to the Viper Pro.
Job files allow application and field data for multiple operations or fields to be saved on the field computer at
any given time without erasing or modifying existing job information and also provides the ability to transfer
data to another Viper Pro field computer to begin operations using data previously created or collected or to
complete an operation previously started with a different Viper Pro.
Note:
To ensure memory resources are available, Raven recommends performing file maintenance
periodically to remove unused job files from the memory on the field computer. Refer to Chapter
11, File Maintenance and Editing Reports for more information.
