TeeJet CenterLine User Guide v2.02 - Manual (Page 32)

28 Chapter 3 - Operation
Apply On/Off
If no SM5 is being used and the <GUIDANCE><STATUS> setting is set to OFF, the Apply On/Off
information must be provided to the CenterLine system manually. To toggle the Apply On/Off status,
scroll through the menu options using the Arrow buttons until <APPLY ON> or <APPLY OFF> are
displayed on the lightbar. Press the Enter button to change the status of the displayed condition.
Marking Points A and B
Straight-Line and Curved AB Guidance require a reference guideline to navigate the vehicle. Estab-
lishing a guideline involves marking two points along a reference guideline. To establish this refer-
ence guideline using the operation menu, use the Arrow buttons to scroll through the menu until
<NEW AB?> is displayed on the lightbar. Press the Enter button. The lightbar will display <MARK
A>. Mark Point A by pressing the Enter button when the desired location has been reached. Once
the Enter button is pressed, the lightbar will display <MARK B>. To mark Point B, press the Enter
button once the desired location has been reached. The reference guideline has been established
and the lightbar will display guidance information.

Switching Guidance Modes
Switching guidance modes may be desirable at some point during operation. Typically an operator
makes one or more passes around a field’s headland area during Headland Guidance. While driving
in Headland Guidance, the operator may mark Points A and B to establish guidelines for switching
modes at a later time. Once the headlands are completed, the operator can easily switch to Straight-
Line Guidance or Curved AB Guidance and complete the field.
To switch between guidance modes, use the Arrow buttons to scroll through the menu until <HEAD-
LAND>, <STRAIGHT>, or <CURVE AB> appears on the lightbar. Select the appropriate guidance
mode and press the Enter button.
A+ Feature
At any time after a guideline is created, the guidance line can be shifted to the current position by
activating the A+ feature. The heading (and shape, if in curved mode) of the original guideline is
maintained, but the A-B line is shifted to the vehicle’s current location. Scroll through the operation
menu using the Arrow buttons until <A+> is displayed on the lightbar. Press the Enter button to acti-
vate the shift.
