AutoTrac™ Implement Guidance (passive)

AutoTrac™ Implement Guidance (passive) is used to improve accuracy in changing field conditions, curved passes, and sloped terrain. AutoTrac™ Implement Guidance (passive) drives the machine in a way that keeps the implement on the guidance line.

AutoTrac™ Implement Guidance uses the implement profile measurements in the Equipment Manager application and the GPS signals from the machine and implement receivers. This information is used to determine the location of the implement receiver in relation to the machine receiver. Based on the guidance line, AutoTrac™ Implement Guidance steers the machine so the implement follows the guidance line. This may cause the machine to travel off the guidance line.

Navigate to Equipment Manager

  1. Select Menu.

  2. Select Applications tab.

  3. Select Equipment Manager application.

NOTE: When implement guidance is enabled, the guidance lightbar module shows the distance the machine must steer off the guidance line to compensate for implement drift.
