Activities before spreading
126
Variable, externally
driven application rate
The control system provides the options to distribute the same
application rate all over the site and the option to spread a variable,
externally driven application rate. This provides the option to spread
as per requirements, e.g. through a nitrogen sensor. An application
rate that had been preset in the corresponding management system
for the relevant site can also be entered through the GPS system.

For the options and corresponding settings, see the user's
manuals for the external system and the control box, e.g. the
IsoMatch.
The control system of the spreader in combination with the IsoMatch
control box also transmits the application rate and working width used
back to the external system. The Focus control box does not provide
this option.
The external system and the control box of a spreader with an
IsoMatch control box communicate through a serial port with an
RS232 connection. This connection is located at the back of the
control box. The occupation of pins in the 9 point RS232 plug and the
settings required are given in

the user manual of the IsoMatch control box.
Setting the control system
A few settings in the control system must be checked and adjusted to
enable communication with an external system.

See section »Set ISOBUS communication« on page 88.
A few settings must also be entered in the driver (software) of the
control box or tractor terminal. This is specifically concerned with
accepting an external signal and communication settings.
For the options and exact settings, always consult

the user’s manuals for the external system, control box or tractor.
