Options Menu

Several options are available to configure your UC5 System to operate in different modes. The
options menu is located in the Automatic Setup Menu. Navigate to the UC5 Setup Menu
(Section 7.1) and choose Automatic Setup. Under the sprayer make drop down box choose
“Options”. The sprayer model drop down box will now display a list of options. Each time you
select an option it will toggle between the available selections. After the option is selected,
press “OK” and the settings will be displayed in the diagnostics window.

9.1 Headland Assist Toggle

Selecting this option will toggle between enabling and disabling Headland Assist. By default, this
feature is enabled for certain sprayer types. Headland Assist is used to raise the wings only or
the entire boom at the end of the field for turning. This feature operates when the system is in
automatic.
The headland mode height can be changed. While the boom is in headland mode, the operator
can change the height by simply adjusting the target height.

9.2 Headland Assist Trigger

When the Headland Assist feature is enabled, a trigger type must be selected to activate it in
the field. The trigger may be either the main lift up / down switch or the remote auto input

line.

Main Lift Switch:
If the main lift switch is enabled as the trigger, the Headland Assist will be triggered when the
operator presses the “main up” switch while in automatic. By pressing the “main down” switch
the boom will return to automatic mode. When in manual the main lift switch will operate the
normal main lift function.
If the main lift switch is enabled as the trigger, then the set point increment / decrement feature
is disabled for the main lift switch.

Remote Auto:
Enabling remote auto as the trigger will allow a separate switch to trigger the Headland Assist.
This switch must be a momentary type switch. Remote auto is an input line located on the
UC5 input module. Refer to Section 9.4 for the location of the remote switch inputs. If
remote auto is enabled as the trigger then the remote switches will also be enabled.
While in manual, if the system voltage (+12 VDC) is momentarily applied to the remote auto
line, the system will switch to automatic. While in automatic, each time the system voltage is

momentarily applied to the remote auto line, the system will change between automatic and
headland mode.
With Remote Auto selected as the trigger, the set point increment / decrement feature can still
be used with the main lift switch to change the target height for headland mode and automatic.
