How to create split planter data.
Follow these steps to create split planter data:
Note: Split planter data can only be created for Site Verification and Application Rate data. All other forms of
data will not allow the option to create split planter data.
1. Select the dataset in the Management Tree that you want to create split data for and then right click on the
dataset and select Create Split Planter Data.
2. The Split Planter Equipment Settings dialog will now appear. Select the desired Operation and Rate Units
that you want to apply to the new split planter datasets. The Operation will be the location the data is saved
after the processing is complete. Then you will need to select the desired Swath Width Type; there are three
options to choose from for the Swath Width Type; Full Swath, Manual Swath Entry, and Partial Swath.

Full Swath - Select this option if you want to use the swath that was logged in the file. In most
cases this option will be the recommended choice.

Manual Swath - Select this option if you want to manually enter the swath for each side of the
planter. This option can be useful if you have an offset swath such as a 12 row planter and the
splits are at 8 rows and 4 rows. Or this option can be used if the swath for some reason was not
logged properly in the file.

Partial Swath - Select this option if the dataset was logged at half swath, i.e. you only logged
data on one side of the planter and had your monitor setup to log the data that way. This option
doubles the logged swath, and after processing the split planter dataset the results will be as if
the dataset was logged at full swath originally.
After you have selected the Swath Width Type you can click the Next> button, unless Manual Swath is
selected; then you will need to enter the full swath width of the planter.
3. The Split Planter Swath Settings dialog will now appear. In this dialog you have to define swath settings for
each side of the planter by clicking on the sections below the tractor and then entering the appropriate
settings for the selected section.
4. Start by entering a Dataset name and defining a product for each side of the planter. At this point it's
recommended that you create a new product and use the hybrid or variety name for the product that was
planted with each side of the planter.
5. Next, set the Swath Section Width for each side of the planter. If Full Swath or Partial Swath were selected
in Step 2 then the only option you will have is automatic. If Manual Swath was selected in Step 2 then enter
the appropriate swath width for the Left and Right side of the planter.
6. Continue to the Set Applied Rate selection. At this point, depending on the source of the data (Application
Rate or Site Verification), you have different options to set. If Site Verification is the source of the data then
you will only have the option of entering a manual rate for the left or right side of the planter. If Application
Rate data is the source then you can use the logged rate or enter a manual rate. An example of this would
be if you did variable rate planting on the left side and a manual rate on the right side you can use the
logged rate for the left side and set a manual rate for the right side. Once both sides have been fully
defined you can hit the Finish button to start the processing.
Note: After the processing is complete the source dataset that was used to make the split will no longer be
located in the same spot in the management tree. You will now have two new datasets using the settings
that were defined when the create split planter feature was run.
How to add a simple analysis function(s).
Follow these steps to add a simple analysis function(s) to a dataset(s):
1. Select an Operational Instance to apply a simple analysis function(s) to all the datasets below it or select an
individual dataset from the Management Tree.
2. Click the right mouse button to open the Management Tree menu.
