The Main Launcher is the first menu page you see after powering up the SmartPad II. This is the top menu page
and from here you can launch an application. The Fieldware for SmartPad II software is made up of three soft-
ware applications (programs), Guidance, Nav2Point, and Mapper. Each application can be broken down into two
main components, Setup and Real-Time Mapping. Use the next few pages to see the Setup structure and Real-
time buttons for the application you choose to use. Review all setup settings and make changes as needed.
Remember to use the on screen help window to determine what data should be entered.
Example: Entering the Swath Width in the Guidance application: See page 5 (this is the flow chart for the guid-
ance application) follow the chart to Swath Width. Notice that Guidance is selected from the main launcher
screen, then select Setup, and the final step would be to select Guidance. From this point Swath Width is one of
items that should be setup before starting guidance. This procedure is the same for all three applications (Guid-
ance, Nav2Point, and Mapper) each application has its own flow chart.
The Guidance application provides the operator with clear and intuitive steering
assistance as well as real-time application information. The operator can
select between four different guidance modes:
Parallel Curved Curved A-B Center Pivot
The Nav2Point application allows you to navigate to specific predetermined
point locations, or to more generalized areas of a field, based on various types
of background data such as yield or soil maps. Once at the desired location,
add that location as a sample point and assign a point number and location
name. The primary use of the Nav2Point application will be for soil sampling.
The Mapper application allows the operator to map field boundaries, weed
patches, insect infestation, ponds, water ways, rocks, tile lines, as well as
many other features you feel are important to your operation. Features can
be mapped as points, lines, or polygons.
