1 Field-IQ System Boom Height Control

2 Benefits  Maintain boom height in uneven terrain  Reduce operator fatigue  Consistent spray tip height reduces drift

3  Four sprayer interface kits released  Additional kits targeted  2007-2011 Rogator  2012-2013 Rogator RG series kit “Requires FIQ”  Case SPX 2009 and newer  Miller 4000 and 5000 series  New Holland SP.xxxF  Apache series, 2009 and newer Supported Models Main differences in platforms are cables, hose length, hydraulic fittings, and brackets. With FIQ installed a SIM module is already installed for manual control of switches in cab.

4  Cab kit  What to order depends if Field-IQ is already installed or not.  Platform kit  Select appropriate make/model  Hose kit  Select kit to match platform make/model kit  Sensor kit  3 or 5 sensors available dependent on boom width  Passcode for CFX-750 4.0  Optional center section upgrade kit System Components

5 Valve Block Specific to Platform  Ordered to control boom wings  Upgraded to control center section

6 VM 430 Valve Module  Can command three valves  Same module used for Field Level II

7 SS-100 Ultra Sonic Sensor  Installed as a daisy chain between sensors  Must use terminators at the ends  Vibration and shock tolerant

8 Emergency Stop Button  Disable all booms with button before transporting or folding 1.Press Emergency Stop 2.Close field 3.Fold booms Help eliminate possibility of the booms activating while in the hangers

9 Installation

10 Key Points of Installation  Determine location of sensors  Consider placement when folding booms

11 Key Points of Installation  Install instructions will give suggested mounting locations

12 Key Points of Installation  Sensor needs minimum 24” (60cm) from crop canopy or ground depending on mode of operation

13 Key Points of Installation  Ensure sensor bracket does not hang below bottom of boom and drag

14 Communication  Sensor computes distance  Sends reading to CFX  CFX contains control algorithms  VM 430 receives digital command  Sends analog command to valve Height Sensor Valve Block VM 430 Module

15 Boom Status  Grey = disabled  Yellow = enabled  Green = engaged

16 Run Screen Icon Definitions

17 Setting Up Boom Height Control

18 Setup

19 Setting Up Height Sensors  Boom size determines placement of sensors  Should be same height across boom

20 Setting Up Height Sensors  Enter distance from the sensor to spray tip to lower edge of sensor cone

21 Operation Setup

22

23  Adjust only if boom consistently lowers too fast

24 Operation Setup  Raise setting to reduce rocking  Depends on type of boom suspension

25 Operation Setup  This is your on target indication scale

26 Operation Setup  Maximum distance tip to target

27 Operation Setup  Minimum distance tip to target

28 Operation Setup  Amount increased or decreased when adjusting the Target Height

29 Operation Setup  Similar to Autopilot on line aggressiveness  Influenced by ground conditions

30 Installation Verification  After installation  Manually verify connections and hydraulics  Similar to Autopilot

31 Calibration Have the center boom in a lower state and all booms level

32 Advanced Tab Features  Allows changes to setup wizard and advanced system changes

33 Importance of Signal Input Module

34 Using In Cab Controls

35 Additional Advanced Features

36 Diagnostics of Hardware

37 Operation  To enable a zone, select it individually  To enable all zones, select center Enable All  Only available when system is not engaged and all zones are disabled

38 Operation  Buttons turn yellow when section enabled

39 Operation  To Disengage sections, tap each one individually or tap engage button to disengage all.

40 Operation  Arrow indicates direction zone being commanded to reach the Target Height

41 Run Screen Controls  Adjust Target Height - tap increase or decrease arrow  Adjust Aggressiveness - tap increase or decrease arrow  To set Target Height to the current height - tap Set to Current button
