10 Viper® 4 and Viper 4+ Installation Manual
Speed Compensated Monitoring and Control
The Viper 4 and Viper 4+ provide speed compensated monitoring or automatic control features for a variety of
field operations. Whether monitoring seed population, application rate, or harvest yield information, the
information displayed to the operator is automatically adjusted for the current equipment speed. If the console
is configured for automatic equipment control, the console will automatically make adjustments to the seed or
product rate control system to adjust for changes in the equipment speed. These features allow the operator to
observe other equipment functions and guide the vehicle during field operations, help reduce operator fatigue
during long operating sessions, and reduce critical input, application, or yield errors.
Note: Additional hardware may be required to allow the field computer to control equipment functions
automatically. Contact a local Raven dealer for a complete list of available features for use with the
console and more information on optional control systems and components.
