Reprogram From Yield Mapping

NOTE: Before operating either guidance system, verify your KeyCard has latest software available. Acquire latest version of software on Internet at www.stellarsupport.com or contact your John Deere dealer.

If a newer software is installed on KeyCard than on system automatic software load should start and load newest version of software (see Automatic Software Load later in this section).

When system is programmed for yield mapping and is moved onto another machine to be used for a Parallel Tracking or AutoTrac, system must be re-programmed.

The following procedures show basic programming steps needed to prepare system to operate in a guidance system mode. Mobile processor, display and position receiver must be re-programmed to operate in a guidance system mode.

IMPORTANT: If AutoTrac/Parallel Tracking display is used with a second display on same wiring harness, AutoTrac/Parallel Tracking display address must be set to auxiliary 1 after it has been re-programmed (See Re-programming Second Display). Other display (SPRAYSTAR ™ or SEEDSTAR ™ display) address must be set to primary (See procedures in SETUP section).

When re-programming a system with two displays, only one display can be connected to wiring harness at a time. Disconnect wiring harness connector from display not being re-programmed then reconnect after programming is completed. Repeat procedure on second display.

NOTE: The re-programming steps shown below are for yield mapping systems with software version 6.32 or greater. (See your Yield Mapping operator's manual for re-programming information on all other versions.)
