Map guidance and features 13 Operations
If you encounter an obstacle in the field, continue to record your path as you drive around it. On
the next pass the guidance line will adjust to reflect this.
Note – When you create a spiral with the FreeForm guidance pattern, there may be a space at the
center of the spiral.
Use FreeForm curves in fields with variable terrain
Start and stop recording guidance at the ends of each pass. If there are two guidance lines in close
proximity, tap to snap to the correct line.
At any point you can add a straight AB line for repeated straight line guidance.
Tap to switch between straight AB and FreeForm curve guidance lines.
Use guidance on curved segments
After you map a guidance line, there are two ways to get guidance:
l Drive the vehicle through a tight U-turn. The next guidance line displays.
l
If you are manually logging a FreeForm curve, tap to stop defining the current line.
The FreeForm curve is similar to an adaptive curve. You must record your line on each pass to
receive guidance on the next. If the vehicle is not drawing a line (or guidance trail) behind it, you
are not recording your path and therefore the next guidance line will not display.
Note – Do not confuse the existing guidance line with the guidance trail appearing behind the
vehicle that shows your current guidance. You need to create a new guidance line to receive
guidance on the next pass.
Pause / Resume guidance
When you tap to pause guidance:
l An icon displays on the screen to show your exact location when the guidance was paused. This
enables you to return to that position in the field.
l
Your current position relative to displays in the status bar at the top of the screen.
l The guidance line that you were on is displayed, even if you drive onto another swath.
l The system pause remembers the vehicle position, even when the lightbar is turned off.
