CHAPTER 2
6 Viper/Viper 4+ Installation & Operation Manual
During field operations, ROS provides either a two or three dimensional view of the equipment location within the
field area. ROS also utilizes the configured equipment geometry to provide a swath guidance line on the ROS
display to assist the operator and keep the equipment on track during the field operation.
NOTE: This guidance path may also be used by automated steering systems such as Raven SmarTrax to
automatically steer the equipment onto the displayed swath guidance line, to help reduce operator
fatigue and allow the operator to monitor input or application systems.
ON-SCREEN MAPPING AND JOB REPORTING
During field operations, ROS monitors and tracks the vehicle location and records input or application systems. As
active sections or the working equipment width covers field area, ROS creates a live map of previous equipment
coverage. When the job is complete, ROS compiles the location and any population, rate, or yield information into
a report file for transfer to a home or office PC. The reports may be edited and used for customer billing, tracking
product input for government purposes, or to help plan future crop inputs and field operations.
Job reports must be transferred to a Slingshot
®
user account via either a Slingshot Field Hub or a USB flash drive.
The Slingshot web service is free and does not require any hardware or monthly subscriptions to utilize the
reporting features of the web site. With a Slingshot Field Hub, files may be transferred to the equipment cab from
a home or office PC and completed job reports may be transferred from the cabin to the home or office via the
wireless network.
Visit the Slingshot web site for more information or to locate a local Slingshot dealer for additional assistance with
available Slingshot services.

VIRTUAL TERMINAL AND TASK CONTROLLER CAPABILITY
ROS devices are capable of interfacing with many ISOBUS control systems via the virtual terminal capabilities. This
feature allows the operator to monitor or control various aspects of the vehicle or implement over an ISOBUS
network via the ROS device display without the need for additional displays or control consoles in the vehicle
cabin.
TASK CONTROLLER
The ISO Section Control activation key allows AccuBoom to control implement sections that is connected to the
task controller. The task controller is required to allow the ROS VT to automatically control sections based upon
field position and previous coverage data collected during the application.
NOTE: The task controller unlock is not included with the free VT capabilities. Contact a local Raven dealer
for additional information or pricing.
