Automatic Swath Control (AutoSectionControl)
The Automatic Swath Control feature turns
sections off and on automatically based upon the
following conditions:
• Entering and exiting internal and outer field
boundaries.
• Entering and exiting previously-applied areas
within a field.
Automatic Swath Control can be toggled on/off by
the AutoSwath button on the lower right-hand
side of the Map screen.
To adjust AutoSwath settings, go to the
Configuration Settings screen, press the Automatic
Swath Control button. At the screen that appears,
options are:
• Outside Boundary Option
Select one of the two options to determine
system behavior when a section exits a field boundary.
• Coverage Option
In the Coverage Option area, you must choose between three options:
• Minimize Skip
Turns off the implement section after the entire section is fully inside your coverage area.
This prevents the possibility of skips.
• Minimize Overlap
Turns off the implement section when that section first enters your coverage area.
This prevents the possibility of overlaps.
• User Defined
Allows you to choose what percentage of the implement section is within the coverage area before that section
turns off. For example, if you choose 50%, then the section will switch off when half of it is within your coverage
area.
• Turn-On Look Ahead
Determines how far ahead the system looks
to turn the sections back on. This
compensates for delay in the system when
the sprayer sections are turned on.
• Turn-Off Look Ahead
Determines how far ahead the system looks
to turn the sections off. This compensates for
delay in the system when the sections are
turned off.
