PowerGlide Plus Joystick Interface Functions (Center Rack Control Feature Disabled)
The following joystick control interface functions are available when operating an AutoBoom PowerGlide Plus

control feature may be enabled.
Active center rack height control will not be enabled as this control feature is disabled.
Setting Transport Height. Ultrasonic sensors will react to the first object that reflects an echo, whether it is
the ground or the crop canopy. Return to height and return to transport heights are sensor measurements
relative to the first reflected signal (e.g. crop canopy), not necessarily ground level.
To set the transport height to maximum center rack height:
1. Raise the center rack above the current set transport height.
2. Double up-tap on the center rack function switch. AutoBoom will save the maximum height as the new
transport height.
Note: Four up-taps will also reset the transport height to the maximum center rack height as defined in
the above joystick interface function tables.
To set the transport height to a lower height than the current set transport height:
1. Engage the return to transport height feature.
2. Single down-tap on the center rack function switch at the desired transport height. AutoBoom will save the
current height as the new transport height.
