S3 Display
The S3 display consists of control buttons, screen tabs,
and screens (with fields and buttons).
• Control buttons allow you to perform such tasks
as engaging automated steering and displaying the
lightbar. Control buttons can be on the left or right
of the screen. An orange control button is active.
• You navigate the S3 using tabs (along the bottom
of the display) and screens. Touch a tab to display
the screen (or one of several screens) for that tab.
An orange tab is active (related screen displayed).
•Use fields to edit the specific settings and buttons
to adjust settings or activate functionality. If a field
has a line around you can edit its value. If a button
or field is gray, you cannot use/edit it.
Configuring the S3

important settings before beginning your initial pass.

until “Release” appears until the following message
appears: Touch the screen to verify the target moves
to your finger.
3. Press and drag around the screen to verify the
onscreen image follows your finger.
4. Touch OK. You are returned to the System screen.
