6 īīVehicles EZ-Pilot system calibrations
Line acquisition calibration for EZ-Pilot system
Line acquisition controls how fast the guidance system attempts to steer the vehicle onto the
current guidance line (50% - 150%).
l With a high setting, the vehicle approaches the line quickly, but may overshoot the line and
drive itself to instability.
l With a low setting, the vehicle steers onto the line more slowly, but is less likely to overshoot
the line.
Note ā Exceeding the capability of the tractor will cause instability (such as oscillating back and
forth up and down the line) during line acquisition.
