    Why is the hydraulic disengage switch or transducer not detected during calibration of my Raven Farm Equipment?
    • K
      Katie HodgesAug 27, 2025
      If the hydraulic disengage switch or transducer is not detected during calibration, the priority valve in the open center valve may be stuck. Consider replacing the cartridge or the open center valve. The cable connection(s) to the disengage switch may also be improperly connected or loose, so verify disengage switch connections are correct and secure. Additionally, the cable connection to the transducer may be improperly connected or loose, so verify the connection to the transducer is correct and secure.

    Why does my Raven Farm Equipment skip or overlap in the field?
    • A
      Angela ShepardAug 27, 2025
      If your Raven Farm Equipment consistently skips or overlaps in the field, the antenna position entered in the field computer does not correlate with the position on the roof. Physically re-measure the antenna height and offset and adjust the values in the field computer.

    What to do if I have a 'Guide Com' error on Raven Farm Equipment?
    • B
      bankskyleAug 27, 2025
      If you're experiencing a 'Guide Com' error on your Raven Farm Equipment, it means guidance points are no longer being received by SmarTrax. Verify connections between SmarTrax and the field computer. If you are using Viper Pro, verify that the “Send Guidance Message” option is on the Lightbar Setup screen.

    Why does my Raven Farm Equipment consistently drive to the left or right of the guidance line?
    • B
      Billy BradleyAug 27, 2025
      If your Raven Farm Equipment consistently drives to the left or right of the guidance line, the yaw or /WAS sensor may be out of calibration. Recalibrate the yaw sensor to zero while the machine is stationary and reset the /WAS center calibration. The left or right PWM Min value may be too high, so lower the appropriate PWM Min value until the front wheels steer very slowly manually and with minimum buttons. Also, the LA Aggressiveness setting may be too low, so increase the LA Aggressiveness setting. The OL Sensitivity setting may also be too low, so increase the OL Sensitivity setting.

    Why won't my Raven Farm Equipment SmarTrax find the guidance line?
    • T
      Tonya MatthewsAug 27, 2025
      If your Raven Farm Equipment SmarTrax system is not finding the guidance line, ensure that SmarTrax is engaged. If you have Phoenix 300 receivers, disable the GL1DE speed filter. Increase the LA Aggressiveness setting. Increase the OL Sensitivity setting in increments of 1, allowing at least 40 seconds between adjustments.
