ISO Virtual Terminal (VT) The X30 virtual terminal supports plug-and-play operation for direct control of major planter monitors and planter, seeder and sprayer controllers with industry standard ISO11783. Operates in parallel with X30 autosection control. For sprayers and planters, up to 32-section autosection control can be accessed through the ISO interface.

The X30 can generate exportable boundary, coverage, logging, and as-applied maps with flag points. The X30 imports shapefiles and ISOXML prescription maps. The software calculates covered and remaining areas.

The X30 also provides multiple input/output features for maximum data use. Client/Farm/Field/Job menu saves multiple fields and tasks for different farms. Create detailed exportable exports for data tracking and multi-year analysis. AutoLocate (automatic field recognition by proximity to your current location) feature allows easy field identification and job loading.

Mapping and Data Management

The ASC-10 provides ten-section sprayer, planter, or spreader section control and handles point rows or triangular-shaped fields. ASC automatically switches sections on/off as you cross previously applied areas or as sections or move outside field boundaries. ASC eliminates gaps/overlaps and reduces inputs while protecting your crops. Liquid rate control keeps application rate constant even with varied vehicle speeds.

Autosection (ASC) and Liquid Rate Control

Spreader ControlVariable rate capability accurately controls liquid or granular nitrogen and fertilizer application. Perform variable rate application from imported prescription maps or generate real-time "as applied" maps. Compatible with common spreader hydraulic systems. Auto-shutoff when used with ASC-10.

Sprayer ControlReduce your workload and increase your accuracy. Spray control provides cost savings on inputs, while protecting the environment from excess application. The easy-to-use system can control multiple productsn and is compatible with the NORAC UC5™ boom leveling system via ISO**.

Variable Rate ControlSingle or multiple product variable rate reduces input costs by applying seed and fertilizer precisely where you need it. Import prescription maps, build your own, or generate real-time as-applied log maps. Simultaneously controls and records up to 8 products.

X30 controllers include spraying, spreading, or planting and feature innovative efficiency tools such as virtual switchbox, flow-over-pressure based rate control, and auto coverage to help ensure no gaps or overlap.

Convenient, simple installation, reverse operation, and full terrain compensation (optional wheel angle sensor).

ACU-1 Direct Interface Steering System150,250,350Compatible with a wide range of "steer ready" vehicles using high-speed CANbus communications.

AES-25 Electric SteeringFull hydraulic performance with electric convenience

Fast, flexible, and accurate, AES-25 is a superb alternative to common hydraulic steering systems.With a quiet, high-torque, direct drive motor, AES-25 provides silent operation and the most accurate electric steering in the world. AES-25 features excellent performance in a wide range of diverse applications, including sprayers and windrowers and provides a great autosteering solution for non steer-ready tractors.

The AES-25 with the AGI-3 provides a complete autosteering package that is easily transferable between machines. Farmers can start with the accuracy needed for certain work, then step up to RTK (real-time kinematics) to achieve 2cm accuracy. The entire system can be truly customized for any farm operation.

Select from electric steering or direct interface Considerations include accuracy needs, installation time, support and calibration, maintenance, flexibility, and cost.

The compact, self-contained AES-25 does not intrude into the operator’s working area with external components that could interfere with normal day-to-day operation.

Autosteering increases efficiency, eases operator fatigue, reduces machine wear-and-tear, reduces overlap and input

costs and allows 24/7 operation regardless of environmental conditions.

AGForm-3D is an intuitive and easy to use solution for improving surface drainage and irrigation efficiency.

AGForm-3D lets you break fields into multiple sections to reduce yardage, shorten hauls and minimize topsoil cuts. Design sections as best-fit, single-slope, or dual-slope planes, then transfer files to the System 210 controller for automatic GPS control.

Enter desired slopes and AGForm-3D creates 3D designs that ensure your fields will drain. Retain natural slopes while smoothing highs and lows that impede water flow. Images can be displayed in plan views or profile views and summary reports can be printed.

AGForm-3D with a HiPer AG gives you a complete ag survey system and lets you perform fast, accurate, surveys from one setup, even with large elevation changes, irregular shapes, dust, wind, or fog.
