8 Vehicle guidance setup EZ-Steer assisted steering system
EZ-Steer system calibration
Before you calibrate the vehicle:
l Ensure that the vehicle’s hydraulic oil is up to operating temperature. Refer to the vehicle
documentation.
l Ensure that the tire pressure is correct.
l Perform initial calibration without an implement or with the booms folded in on a high-
clearance sprayer. After initial calibration is completed, you can fine tune the settings with the
implement or booms folded out.
l Choose a field with the smoothest possible surface and perform calibration at the normal
operating speed for the vehicle.
l Have a straight AB line available. If you do not create an A–B line before you begin the
calibration, the system will prompt you to open a field and create one.
To calibrate the EZ-Steer system:
1. Complete the T2 roll compensation calibration for EZ-Steer system (page 205).
2. Calibrate the EZ-Steer system.
ll AngleperTurn calibration for EZ-Steer system (page 204)
l Aggressiveness calibration for EZ-Steer system (page 203)
l Freeplay Offset calibration for EZ-Steer system (page 204)
3. Confirm the calibration settings.
Note – You may have to perform the EZ-Steer calibration more than once to achieve optimal results.
Aggressiveness calibration for EZ-Steer system
The aggressiveness setting fine-tunes how aggressively the system holds the line. If the setting is too
low, the vehicle will not hold the line. If the setting is too high, the vehicle may over-correct and
make S-turns.
To configure the aggressiveness settings, at the EZ-Steer Steering Performance screen select the Step
2 tab.
Adjust the aggressiveness setting to get the vehicle as close to the line as possible without going
into S-turns. To make:
l More aggressive turns, increase the aggressiveness
l Less aggressive turns, decrease the aggressiveness
