3. Select the Equipment tab to view the currently configured section group information. Refer to View Section
Groups section on page 72 for information on the section group display or the Section Settings section on
page 73 for assistance with creating a new section group.
4. Select the Edit button in the desired section group to edit section group information.
5. Touch the Sections tab to access the following settings for the selected section group:
NOTE: The section group display will not necessarily represent the physical section layout of the implement.
Number of Sections. This field sets the number of sections available within the section group. Edit this number to
add or remove sections from the section display area.
Calculate Offsets Feature. ROS is capable of calculating section left/right offsets for standard section
configurations (e.g. sections aligned end-to-end and centered on the swath midpoint).
This feature may be used to quickly set up sections for common configurations such as spray booms, tool bars,
planters, and seeders.
To use the automated offset calculator:
1. Set and verify width values for all sections in the group. See the Equipment Setup - Sections Tab section on
page 84 for details on setting the width value for each section.
2. Touch the “Calculate Offsets” button. ROS will automatically set the left/right offsets for a standard section
configuration.
3. If necessary, manually adjust the fore/aft or left/right offset direction and distance values to customize the
section group configuration.
Section Group Display. This area displays an abstract of the current section group configuration with the number
of sections and assigned section labels. Touch a section indicator shown in this area to view settings for each
section in the group.
NOTE: The section order displayed in this area will be duplicated for section status indicators during field
operations. It is recommended to enter sections from left to right to ensure that the status indicators
display a general representation of the section group status.
Section Label. Set the label to be displayed for each section during field operations. The section label may be up
to three characters and will be displayed on section status display or on-screen switch box widgets selected for
use during active jobs.
Width. Set the width in inches [centimeters] to calibrate ROS for the area covered by each specific section during
field operation.
