Autopilot system calibration 6 Vehicles
Calibration steps
1.
Drive the vehicle to a large field without hazards or obstructions. The field should have smooth
soil that is loose but firm.
CAUTION – Obstacles in the field can cause collisions, which may injure you and damage the vehicle. If an
obstacle in the field makes it unsafe to continue the Automated Deadzone calibration, stop the vehicle and
turn the steering wheel to disengage the system.
1) Wait until the display prompts you that the phase is ready to begin.
2) Look at the screen to determine whether the next phase will require a left or right turn.
3) Reposition the vehicle so that the turn will use the space that you have available.
4) Tap the button to begin the next phase.
2.
At the Vehicle setup panel, select the vehicle profile you want to work with. See Select a vehicle,
145 for detailed instructions.
3. On the left-hand side, tap Calibrate.
4. Tap Automated Steering Dead Zone. The calibration panel displays.
5. Center The steering and tap Next.
6. Read each instruction and then tap Next.
7.
Center the steering on the tractor and move forward in first gear at high RPM for at least five
seconds.
8. Tap Test Right and continue moving forward while the system performs a coarse right side test.
9. When the test is finished, center the steering again and drive forward for five seconds.
10. Tap Test Left and continue moving forward while the system performs a coarse left side test.
11. Tap Accept to accept the calibration. The system displays the AutoPilot calibration panel again.
12.
Continue driving ahead slowly and tap Test Right. The system will perform the first right hand
fine calibration.
13.
Repeat the right and left hand fine calibrations until there is a change of less than .5 in each of
the deadzone values
To minimize the total amount of space needed for the complete calibration, you can reposition
the vehicle between each calibration process.If available flate, smooth space is extremely
limited, re-align the vehicle after each calibration.
Note – If you encounter any error messages during calibration, refer to the Automated
Deadzone error messages in this section.
