Field-IQ setup for implements 6 Field-IQ crop input control setup
Setting Explanation
Implement Width The width of the implement's application coverage area. This
measurement is used for logging coverage.
ll For planters, width is calculated using the number of rows
and the row spacing.
l For swathers, width is caluclated by the implement width
and the overlap/skip setting.
Left / Right Offset Used for implements that are offset to the left or right from the
vehicle center line.
This is measured from the center of the vehicle to the center of
the implement.
The measurement adjusts the tractor’s path so that the
implement is centered on the line.
Forward / Back Offset The distance from the vehicle to the implement / application
point.
The offset is measured from the fixed axle of the vehicle to the
point on the implement where coverage logging will be mapped.
The fixed axle depends on vehicle type:
ll Front steering tractors and self-propelled sprayers: Rear axle
l 4 x 4 articulated tractors: Front axle
l Tracked tractors: Center of tracks
Hitch to Ground Contact
Point
Distance from the hitch to where the implement pivots on its
ground contact point.
Measured from the tractor’s hitch pin to the soil engagement
point that the implement rotates about.
For planters, this is typically the seeding units or the midpoint of
several rows of tools.
