SMARTBAR BUTTON BOX
SELECT/UP button
The SELECT button is like an Enter or Execute
button. It changes or advances data values in the
Configuration Mode and activates actions in the
Operational Mode. This is the most used button.
It is located at the top of the Button Box for the
operator’s easy thumb access.
MENU button
The MENU button is used to select menu screens
from a list. It is also used to access an action item
from list. This button does not change data or
execute actions. Press the MENU button to
sequence through a menu list.
DOWN button
The DOWN button is used to enter a
sub-menu and, in the Configuration Mode, to decrease
data values.
Sometimes actions are executed when the DOWN button is pressed. For example, the DOWN
button is used (instead of the SELECT button) to mark the last headlands point.
Navigating Menus and Sub-menus
The current menu name shows in the alphanumeric display. (see Configuration Mode Menu
Navigation Diagram) Menus that have menus ‘under’ them are main menus. Menus that are
‘under’ main menus are sub-menus. Pressing the MENU button displays main menu and
sub-menu items in sequence. When showing a main menu, (i.e. it has a sub-menu ‘under’ it),
pressing the DOWN button will display the first item in that sub-menu. Then pressing the
MENU button displays this sub-menu’s items in sequence. Pressing the MENU button at the
last sub-menu item displays this sub-menu’s main menu item again. The DOWN button may
now be pressed again to re-enter this sub-menu (in case the desired sub-menu item was
skipped inadvertently) or press the MENU button to sequence to the next main menu item.
Changing data values
Some menus are data items, such as swath width (SWW). For these menus, a data value or
setting is displayed in the right alphanumeric display. There are basically two types of data
items: numeric such as swath width and select-from-list such as headlands (OFF, SEP, CMP,
DHC). If the data item is numeric, pressing the SELECT/UP button will increase the data
value, while pressing the DOWN button will decrease the data value. Usually, the
SELECT/UP button will increase by a large value and the DOWN button will decrease by a
small value. This provides for faster setting when the desired data value is far from the current
setting. The DOWN button is then used for a precise setting.
