Unit-Mounted Row Options
Row-Pro™
Row-Pro™ adds a pneumatic cylinder to each row unit,
supplement the down-pressure springs. Under control of
the DICKEY-john
®
IntelliAg
®
seed monitor, the included
air system make real-time adjustments to row down
force. This has several benefits:
• consistent down-force in varying field conditions;
• the ability to set force levels anywhere in the row’s
range (and not just at cam notch values); and,
• the ability to vary the force from the tractor cab
(by about one cam notch: ±50 pounds, ±23 kg).
No need to stop and manually reset all 24 cams.
Row-Pro™ is presently available only as a
factory-installed option with the original planter order.
Swath Command™
Swath Command™ provides automatic section control.
The three standard manually-operated section clutches
are replaced by individual row clutches. These clutches
are connected in pairs to the seed monitor CANbus,
providing 12 sections under computer control.
Sections are automatically disabled when overrunning a
previously planted area, or when entering non-planting
area as defined by a pre-loaded prescription.
Swath Command™ is presently available factory- or
field-installed.
The system includes:
• factory: console upgrade to DICKEY-john
®
AI120
field kit: supplemental DICKEY-john
®
A5 console;
• complete air system (pump to rows); and,
• all harness components and row clutches.
The system does not include, but also requires:
• a geolocation data source, such as DGPS, and, if not
inherently high precision (one foot or less),
• coordinate augmentation data, such as EGNOS,
MSAS, OmniSTAR
®
, RTK, VBS, WASS or XP.
Great Plains also offers Trimble
®
AgGPS
®
receivers and
RTK solutions. See Options in the Swath Command™
Operator manual (403-857M) for ordering information.
