Steering performance calibration
To calibrate the EZ-Pilot system and set the correct steering performance parameters, the following
steps must be completed with the vehicle moving forward along an A-B line.

Tap the Aggressiveness tab. The aggressiveness setting controls the amount of force that required
to disengage the system and how aggressively the system holds the line.If the setting is:
ll Too low, the vehicle will not hold the line
l Too high, the vehicle may over-correct and make S-turns
5. Adjust the Aggressiveness setting to get the vehicle as close to the line as possible without going
into S-turns. To make turns:
ll More aggressive:Increase the aggressiveness value.
l Less aggressive:Decrease the aggressiveness value.
6. Tap the Free Play tab.
7. Adjust the freeplay offset if the steering has greater freeplay in one direction than the other,
causing it to drive consistently to one side of the guidance line. To make this adjustment:
a. Engage the on an AB line.
b. If the vehicle is offline to the left, increase the freeplay offset to the right.
c. If the vehicle is offline to the right, increase the freeplay offset to the left.
d. Enter the parameters and then tap OK. The EZ-Pilot Steering Calibration screen displays.
