CHAPTER 6
112 SmarTrax™ Calibration & Operation Manual
IMPORTANT: Selecting the incorrect node arrow number may cause poor steering performance!
NOTE: The SmarTrax Setup Wizard will perform an initial calibration on the SmarTrax tilt sensors. The wizard
will automatically advance to the next step in the calibration process once the node calibration is
complete.
WHEEL ANGLE SENSOR (WAS) CALIBRATION - IF APPLICABLE
IMPORTANT: The range of the /WAS values is limited to 10 - 1010 to prevent damage to certain types of sensors. Ensure
the sensor is mounted to prevent full extension or compression during operation. The difference between
the Left and Center values and Center and Right values must exceed 100.
The /WAS calibration is accessible only if a /WAS is installed in the SmarTrax system. If installed, the following
screen will be displayed:

1. While driving slowly, turn the steering wheel fully to the left wheel lock.
2. Select the Set button displayed below the left wheel value.
3. Continue driving slowly and straighten the wheel until the machine is driving straight forward.
4. Select the Set button below the center wheel value.
5. Turn the steering wheel fully to the right wheel lock.
6. Select the Set button below the right wheel value.
7. Select Next.
CONFIGURING WHEEL BASE AND ANTENNA OFFSETS
If a generic machine profile was selected during the machine configuration process, the Wheel Base, Antenna
Position, and Antenna Height values must be entered into the SmarTrax system.
IMPORTANT: If a specific machine profile was selected during the machine configuration process, the Wheel Base,
Antenna Position, and Antenna Height measurements will be automatically populated in the screen.
However, the antenna mounting position may vary on the machine, so it is important to re-measure the
Antenna Position and Antenna Height to verify that the settings in the field computer are correct. The
Wheel Base value cannot be changed.
