Adaptive Curves Mode allows the operator to record a manually driven curved path. Once the first curved pass has been recorded and machine is turned around, the operator can Parallel Track or activate AutoTrac once the propagated path appears. The vehicle will be guided along subsequent passes, based off of the previous recorded pass. Each pass is generated in relation to the original driven pass to ensure that steering errors are not propagated through the entire field. The passes are not identical copies of the original pass. The curvature of the pass changes to maintain pass to pass error. When necessary, the operator can change the curve path anywhere in the field by simply steering the machine off the propagated path.

Skip pass is not available in Adaptive Curves Mode.

The curvature of the path changes as the subsequent paths get more convex or concave.

Adaptive Curve Track Mode allows an operator to drive and be guided along a variety of field patterns.
