CALIBRATION
Before beginning the machine’s steering system calibration, ensure that the following conditions are met:
• The booms are racked on self-propelled units.
• There are no implements connected to the hitch.
• The machine’s engine is running at the normal operating RPM.
• The machine’s measurements are correctly entered into the Viper 4.
• The machine’s hydraulic fluid is at the normal operating temperature.
NOTE: To ensure the calibration is successful, the number of starts and stops during the calibration process
should be limited. If it is necessary to pause the calibration process, turn the steering wheel or press
the Stop button on the field computer. Tap the foot/enable switch again to resume calibration.
NOTE: During calibration, the machine will make several hard left and right turns. Adjust the vehicle speed
and location as necessary.
NOTE: If an error message is displayed during calibration, refer to Chapter 10, Diagnostics and
Troubleshooting on page 57 for possible causes and corrective action steps to be taken.
1. Park the machine on a level surface with several acres of smooth ground available.
WARNING
The machine’s wheels will turn automatically. Be
sure the area around the vehicle is clear of
people and equipment before engaging the
steering system.
NOTICE
The calibration of the machine’s steering system
should be performed in a field or other large,
open space and during conditions similar to
normal vehicle operation.
If the ground or surface is slippery, muddy, or
freshly tilled, the RS1 system may learn incorrect
steering responses for normal operating
conditions.
Ensure the machine’s hydraulics are operating
properly and there are no other mechanical
issues that may affect the performance of the RS1
system.
