Field feature use
You can place field features in the field while driving to define on the field points of interest or areas
to avoid. There are three types of field feature:
l Point:A single point in the field, such as a tree
l Line:A straight or curved line in a field, such as a fence
l Area:An area of land, such as a pond
Field feature buttons display on the Guidance Mapping panel at the Run screen.
Add field features
To add a feature to the on-screen map of your field:
1.
At the Run screen, tap to open the Mapping Guidance panel, which contains the
buttons for field features you defined.
2. Begin to drive the field.
3.
When you reach the point in your field where you want to add a feature, tap the appropriate
feature button. If the feature is a line or area feature, the feature will begin. To mark the end of
the line or feature, tap the feature button again.
Note – You can add a point feature while adding a line or area feature. For example, use a line feature
to draw an overhead telephone wire and at the same time use a point feature to add the telephone poles.
To set up feature buttons, see Field feature mapping settings (page 55).
