Introduction
The IntelliView IV display can serve as the operator interface for:
• Precision planting, harvesting, and spraying
• Vehicle-specific applications – for example, yield monitoring, “as applied” or prescription planting, performance
monitoring
• PLM IntelliSteer™
• The virtual terminal for vehicles, implements, and systems that conform to the ISO 11783 standard
Layered architecture
The display uses a layered software architecture to greatly
simplify the learning curve for any operator. Each layer
inherits the capabilities of the previous layer. This creates
standard resources, tools, and screens for all applications
on the display.
Framework
Shared resources, tools, and screens – the “Framework”
layer in the illustration – mean that the operator can spend
less time learning and more time using the applications on
the display.
Shared resources may be operator preferences, imple-

RCIL11DSP074BBG 1
ment descriptions, crop types, grower-farm-field-task
structure, etc. The operator enters this information once.
The information is then available in any application on
the display, even if the operator moves the display to a
different vehicle.
Standard pop-up keypads and options windows are ex-

amples of shared tools. The same tools are used to create
lists, select options, and enter names or values. The op-
erator only needs to learn these tools once because they
are the same in every application on the display.
Common icons and "Home" screen organization simplify

navigation through all applications on the display.
Vehicle
Increasingly, the IntelliView IV display will be an opera-
tor’s primary tool for interfacing with the vehicle, whether
a tractor, combine, or sprayer. On many vehicles, the op-
erator controls automated steering with the display. On
some combines today, the operator not only monitors har-
vest operations, but also controls them directly from the
display.
The vehicle uses the display to communicate its unique

control and monitoring needs to the operator, while offer-
ing greater performance control and feedback.

ISO 11783
Created by the International Organization for Standard-
izations (ISO), ISO 11783 is an electronic standard for
agricultural equipment.
The goal of ISO 11783 is to increase farmers’ equipment

options. The standard accomplishes this goal by
standardizing and simplifying control and communication
in:
• Agricultural vehicles
• Displays
• Implements
• Software
• Data storage
RAIL12DSP1041BA 2
• Cables
• Connectors
When used as the virtual terminal for an ISO 11783 im-

plement, the display receives its implement control and
reporting functions for the implement from the implement
itself. These functions and windows are the responsibility
of the implement manufacturer.
Read the operator’s manual from the implement manu-

facturer before using the implement. Obey all safety mes-
sages in the manual and on the implement decals when
using the implement.

Manual scope
The New Holland software applications that are available
for the IntelliView IV display takes full advantage of its
layered architecture. There is vehicle software, farming
software (for example, harvesting, planting, etc.), and ex-
tended feature software (for example, “Precision Farm-
ing,” “Trip Computer,” etc.) that can be layered together
in your display.
This display manual is the base manual for all software

applications. A software operating guide is then available
for any vehicle-specific or farming function application.
The purpose of this display manual is to explain:

• The standard tools that are used by all applications on
the display
• Navigation through the various screens in any applica-
tion
• “Toolbox” screens that are used by all applications
• Components of the “Precision Farming” application
• Generic calibrations
• Common “Data Management” screens
• Common “Diagnostics” screens
By reading this manual, an operator will gain the basic

knowledge and skills that are required to learn any appli-
cation that is available for the IntelliView IV display.

Memory stick
The IntelliView IV display uses a 4 GB Universal Serial
Bus (USB) memory stick, part number 84398840, to store
and retrieve information during farming operations.
RAIL12DSP1042AA 4
Insert the memory stick in the slot located on the back of

the IntelliView IV. Push the stick in until it is fully seated.
The memory stick must be inserted before the display is

powered for the system to detect the presence of the stick.
NOTE: To avoid data corruption, never remove the mem-
ory stick until the display is powered down completely.

Power ON and power OFF

When the ignition switch is turned ON, the display loads
its startup page.
The Light Emitting Diode (LED) on the front of the display

should be green, indicating that the display is both pro-
grammed and powered ON.
If the LED is not lit, check the harness connector to the

display. Then check the cab power fuses for the display.
To function properly, the display requires switched power,
unswitched power, and ground.
If the LED is lit, but is not green, contact your New Holland
dealer for assistance.
RAIL12DSP1370BA 8
When the ignition switch is turned OFF, there is a short

delay before the screen goes blank. During this delay,
the display uses unswitched power to save the current
settings and to close all files in display memory or on the
memory stick.
The screen displays a “DO NOT REMOVE THE MEM-

ORY STICK” icon until the display is completely powered
OFF. Data loss may occur if the memory stick is removed
before all files are properly closed.
The display sounds three short beeps when the process

is complete.
The absence of the short beeps may indicate that

unswitched power to the display is not present. Absence
of unswitched power can result in the loss or corruption RAIL12DSP1373BA 9
of information on the memory stick.
Check the cab unswitched power fuses for the display,

or contact your New Holland dealer for assistance. This
problem must be resolved for the display to function prop-
erly.

2 - ICONS AND WINDOWS

TOUCH CONTROLS
Introduction
RAIL12DSP1374GA 1
Your display features a touch sensitive screen. The operator makes selections and enters information by pressing
windows, icons, or buttons that are displayed on the screen.
2-1
Windows
All screens on the display are composed of windows (ex-
cept for the "Home" screen, explained later). The example
shown has ten windows that are separated by grid lines.
There are two types of window: control windows and re-

porting windows.
The operator uses control windows to stop or start a func-

tion, or to select the operational mode for a function –
for example, “On,” “Off,” “Manual,” and “Automatic.” Other
control windows allow the operator to input a required pa-
rameter – for example, name, date, time, crop type, im-
plement, distance, and height.
Reporting windows report status or a measurable value

– for example, speed, position, fuel consumption, seed
population, yield, and area. As such, reporting windows RCIL11DSP080BBG 1
are seldom user-modifiable, and resetting a counter is the

only permitted user action.
Window components always include a label (1) and a field
(2). A graphic icon (3) is optional.
The label describes what a window is displaying. The icon

identifies graphically what the window is displaying.
The field is a container for information.
RCIL11DSP081BBG 2
Predefined option windows

The shape of the field indicates how it functions.
A field with a down arrow indicates that a pop-up options

window with predefined options is available.
NOTE: The options are predefined by the application.
Press the field to display the pop-up options window.

NOTE: The window changes color when selected.
RAIL12DSP1000BA 3
2-2
The pop-up options window displays in the center of the

screen.
Press any option in the window to select it for the field.
Press the “Close” button to exit the window without

changing the current setting.
RCIL11DSP086BBG 4
Depending on the field selected, the options list may be

quite extensive. Pop-up windows automatically expand to
two columns as required.
RCIL11DSP084BBG 5
When the options exceed the space viewable on a single

screen, a scroll bar appears on the right side of the pop-up
options window.
Press the down arrow in the scroll bar to page down

through the options. Press the up arrow in the scroll bar
to page up through the options. Press an arrow multiple
times to page through an extensive list of options in the
direction selected.
RCIL11DSP085BBG 6
2-3
The location box in the scroll bar indicates the location of

the current page in the scrolling list: this page is located
midway through the list.
The size of the location box decreases as the number of

scrollable pages increases in the scrolling list.
RCIL11DSP085BBG 7
Information input windows

A field without a down arrow indicates:
• A field that requires the operator to input text (or select
among text entries that were previously created by the
operator)
OR
• A field that requires the operator to input a number
The label and context indicate what type of input or selec-

tion is required. A name field requires a name, a distance
field requires a measured distance, etc.
Press the field to display the pop-up options window or

keypad.
NOTE: The window changes color when selected. RAIL12DSP1001BA 8
Text windows
The pop-up options window displays in the center of the
screen.
If no entries were previously entered for the field, the only

option is “New” – to create a new entry.
Thereafter, the choices are “Select,” “Edit Name,” and

“New.”
Use “Select” to choose an entry from the user-created list.
Use “Edit Name” to edit the name for the currently se-
lected entry on the list.
Use “New” to add an entry to the current list. RCIL11DSP098BBG 9

Keypads
Alphanumeric and numeric keypads are part of the
“Framework” software on the display. They are available
to all of the applications on the display.
RCIL11DSP091BBG 1
Each application changes the keypads to fit its needs.
Because ISO 11783 implements upload their own soft-

ware to the display, the character sets on the alphanu-
meric keypad may vary between your New Holland farm-
ing software and software that is loaded into the “VT” ap-
plication (virtual terminal).
In general, applications support both uppercase and low-

ercase alphabets (toggle using the up arrow button), and
extended character sets beyond the alphabet.
RCIL11DSP092BBG 2
2-7
Some applications support both alphanumeric keypads

and numeric keypads. The selected window determines
which keypad is appropriate for the operator to input the
required information.
Use both uppercase and lowercase letters when creating

entries to improve readability on the display.
RCIL11DSP093BBG 3
Applications customize the numeric keypads as well.
The decimal point (or comma) and minus sign are present
on some numeric keypads and absent on others, depend-
ing on whether decimal increments or negative numbers
are appropriate for a given window – for example, GPS
receiver offset values.
RCIL11DSP493BBG 4
2-8
Keypad access
Whenever a keypad is needed to enter a name or value,
the keypad is displayed when the operator presses:
• "New" or "Edit" on a pop-up options windows
OR
• A numeric field – a field that only accepts a numeric

value.
The keypad displays in the center of the current screen.
Press the “Delete All” button to clear the current

entry in the keypad.
Press the “Delete” button to clear the previous char-

acter or number.
Press the “Shift” button to toggle between uppercase

and lowercase letters.
Press the “123” button to toggle between the numeric

RCIL11DSP091BBG 5
and special characters and the alphabet windows.
Press the “Enter” button on the keypad to

save the name or value. The keypad closes, and the win-
dow displays the newly created name or value.
Press the “Close” button to exit without making a

change.
2-9
Input errors
Text entry windows are limited in length to a maximum of
18 characters. The keypad does not accept any additional
characters when this limit is reached.
If an operator attempts to enter a name that already exists

for the selected field, an input error message appears.
The message occurs when the operator presses the “En-

ter” button on the keypad to save the name. The message
prompts the operator to use another name.
Press the “OK” button to acknowledge and clear the mes-

sage. The operator has the option of editing an existing
name or entering a variation on the existing name.
RCIL11DSP094BBG 6
If an operator attempts to enter a number that exceeds

the range allowed for the selected window, an input error
message appears.
The message occurs when the operator presses the “En-

ter” button on the keypad to save the value.
The message shows the valid range for the selected field.
The valid range is defined by the application that is using
the keypad.

Buttons
A buttons is a three-dimensional icon that, when pressed,
performs the action that is described by the text or graphic
label on the button.
Common text buttons include “OK,” “Yes,” “No,” “None,”

“Enter,” “Start,” and “Stop.”
Common icon buttons include Close” , “Select” , and

arrows (up , down , left , right ).
Buttons, although present on a screen, are not available

when they are dimmed. A dimmed button indicates that
something else is required to perform the action. The soft-
ware operating guide for the selected field explains the
steps required to complete the action that is associated
with the button.
RCIL11DSP096BBG 1
When all of the prerequisites are met, the button is active

and performs the action that its text or graphic label de-
scribes.
RCIL11DSP097BBG 2

"HOME" SCREEN
Introduction
When the vehicle ignition switch is turned ON, the display
loads its startup page and sounds one long beep to indi-
cate that it is starting.
RAIL12DSP1370BA 1
When the installed applications are ready, the "Run 1"

screen displays. The “Run 1” screen is the default startup
page for all applications.
NOTE: The contents and arrangement of information on
the “Run” screens are determined by the operator. Place
the windows that are most useful for the current operation
on the “Run 1” screen.
Press the “Back” icon on the navigation bar to return to

the "Home" screen.
RCIL11DSP099BBG 2
The vehicle application – tractor, combine, or other – creates:

• The "Home" screen (A) for the vehicle and other farming applications on the display
• The status and warning icon area (B) for all applications on the display
• The left-hand area (C) which may be configurable for some vehicles
• The current time and date (D) may also be shown somewhere on the screen
The icons and content of the "Home" screen, as shown in the examples, vary with the vehicle.

RCIL11DSP002ABG 7
When any "Home" screen icon is pressed, the application

uses “last screen recall” to determine which screen to dis-
play.
NOTE: The “Toolbox” screens are shown as an example.
The first time an operator enters the “Toolbox” screens in

the current work session, the first screen (“Display Setup”)
is shown by default.
Thereafter, when the operator enters the “Toolbox”

screens, the last screen that was viewed displays.
“Last screen recall” is used uniformly through all the func-

tional icons. “Last screen recall” persists until the display
is powered OFF at the end of the work session.
All “Toolbox” screens share the same navigation bar (1)
at the bottom of the screen.
Each “Toolbox” screen displays the "Toolbox" icon (2) and

a screen label (3).
Press any icon in the navigation bar to access the screen

for that icon.
Press the “Back” icon on the navigation bar to return to

the previous screen or the "Home" screen.
RCIL11DSP100BBG 8
2-15
The number of “Toolbox” screens depends on the vehicle

applications and the mix of other applications that are in-
stalled on your display.
Your “Toolbox” screens may have fewer or more naviga-

tion icons than those shown.
The navigation bar adds an arrow to indicate when there

are additional icons beyond those that are visible.
Press the forward arrow to view the next page of naviga-

tion icons.
RCIL11DSP461BBG 9

to the main “Toolbox” screens.
RCIL11DSP462BBG 12
This same operating pattern applies to all of the functional

icons and their screens.
2-17
Status and warning icon area

The vehicle determines the location and the size of the
status and warning icon area. The status and warning
icon area may have two or three rows. It may be located
at the top or at the bottom of the left-hand area.
Nonetheless, the status and warning icon area has the

same function across all vehicles and applications. The
icons behave in the same way across all vehicles and
applications.
The status and warning icon area is present on all

screens and has two basic functions:
• The warning icons alert the operator that some compo-
nent is not functioning as expected.
• The status icons alert the operator about the current
1
state of an event. RCIL11DSP104BBG
Red is the color of danger. Icons that report danger flash

continuously and are always shown first in the status area.
These icons only clear when the dangerous condition is
removed.
Danger icons mean:

• Safe operation of the vehicle is not possible. Stop the
vehicle.
• An immediate hazardous situation is present. If not
avoided, the situation will result in death or serious in-
jury.
OR
• A critical component or condition required for proper

vehicle operation is not present. RCIL11DSP105BBG 2
2-18
The window contains:

• The danger icon
• The fault message
• An icon for the problem area
• A fault code reference
• A brief explanation of the dangerous condition
• An instruction that explains where to find more informa-
tion.
A danger message can only be acknowledged and mo-

mentarily cleared by pressing the “OK” button. The fault
must be corrected to stop the message from reoccurring.
More information is available in the "Fault Archive" screen

in Diagnostics (Home > Diagnostics > Fault).
RCIL11DSP106BBG 3
Yellow is the color of caution. Caution icons

are shown after danger icons in the status
area, or are shown first when no danger
icons are present. Caution icons only clear
when their cause is removed.
Caution icons mean:

• Operation of the vehicle is possible with the loss of one
or more functions. The operator must decide whether
to continue operating with the loss of the function indi-
cated.
• A potentially hazardous situation is present. If not
avoided, the situation could result in loss of vehicle
control, loss of data, or minor to moderate system
damage
• A default value has been manually overridden by an
operator using a window on a “Run” screen.
RCIL11DSP107BBG 4
OR
• An unsafe practice is in progress
Caution icons are accompanied by a pop-up window (ex-

cept when an operator overrides a default value).
2-19
The window contains:

• The caution icon
• The fault message
• An icon for the problem area
• A fault code reference
• A brief explanation of the condition
• An instruction that explains where to find more informa-
tion
A caution message can be acknowledged in two ways:
Press the “OK” button to clear the message

and leave fault detection enabled for the
specific item that caused the fault. As long
as the fault condition is present, the warning
icon continues to flash in the status and
warning area, and an audible alarm sounds
every 10 s. If the fault condition clears,
the caution icon clears and the alarm is
suppressed, but the system continues to
monitor the specific item.
Press the “Ignore” button to acknowledge

the message and disable fault detection
for the specific item that caused the fault.
The caution icon remains in the status
and warning area as a reminder that the
condition is still present, but the icon is
dimmed (or disabled) and no longer flashes.
The audible alarm is also suppressed.
NOTICE: Do not use Ignore to acknowledge a message

unless there is a known sensor problem for which repairs
must be delayed until a replacement sensor is available.
Fault detection for the specific item is re-enabled at the

next power cycle or by operator activation on the "Fault
Archive" screen in diagnostics (Home > Diagnostics >
Fault).
The message window does not redisplay.
Refer to the "Fault Archive" screen in Diagnostics for more

information on the active fault code (Home > Diagnostics
> Fault).
2-20
Most status icons communicate simpler messages:

• An object is present or missing.
• A function is enabled or disabled.
OR
• A tool is raised or lowered.
The table below lists some of the more common icons you
may encounter in the “Framework” or “Precision Farming”
application.
Some status icons are unique to the vehicle or the various

farming applications. Refer to the vehicle operator’s man-
ual or the software operating guide for information about
other unique status icons. RCIL11DSP265BBG 5

Left-hand area
The left-hand area is created by the vehicle. Refer to the
vehicle operator’s manual and accompanying software
operating guides for more information about this area.
The left-hand area is always displayed regardless of
whether the “Home” screen is selected.
In some vehicles, the left-hand area is not configurable by

the operator: the vehicle determines the content.
If the area is configurable, a window placed in the left-

hand area has priority over the same window placed on
a “Run” screen. When the operator selects the “Run”
screen that contains a window that is also used in the
left-hand area, the window on the “Run” screen is blank.

"TOOLBOX" SCREENS
Introduction
This chapter introduces basic “Toolbox” screens that are common to all applications on the IntelliView IV display. The
information entered on these screens is a shared resource for all farming applications on the display.
The techniques used to set up the display, operators, “Run” screen layouts, and vehicle name can be used in any
other application.
"Display Setup" screen

Use the “Display Setup” screen:
• To set the current date and time on the display,
• To select time format
• To select display language
• To select the operator’s interface level
• To set the display backlight level for all applications

The new language remains active until it is changed.
RCIL11DSP115BBG 9
2-26
“Interface Level”
Two interface levels are available: “Basic” and “Ad-
vanced.”
Choose “Advanced” if you intend to record the results of

your farming operations for analysis with the desktop soft-
ware. This includes summary data, “as applied” data, and
harvest results (yield and moisture). Choose “Basic” if you
do not intend to record production results.
NOTE: To enable mapping and data logging to the mem-
ory stick (for analysis with the desktop software), set the
“Interface Level” window to “Advanced.”
Each individual application – harvesting, planting, spray-

ing – controls the effect of the “Basic” or “Advanced” set-
ting on that application.
Choosing ”Basic” simplifies the structure of farming data:

fewer windows are required to perform operations and
temporarily store information in display memory. The “Ba-
sic” setting prevents logging to the memory stick, so the
increased simplicity also means that the summary data
and the production results will not be available for analy-
sis in the desktop software.
Press the “Interface Level” window to display the pop-up
options window.
Press the desired interface level to change the setting.

RCIL11DSP116BBG 10

NOTE: Select the correct vehicle type!
Vehicle selection chooses the core application for the dis-

play: for example, “Large Tractors” or “Medium Tractors.”
The selected vehicle type interacts with other applications
and determines setup and calibration requirements.
Each vehicle type has different “Run” screens, "Home"

screen icons, and menus. “Generic Tractor” and “Generic
Combine” applications are available so that the display
can be used on early New Holland vehicles that do not
have full Controller Area Network (CAN) bus systems, or,
in some cases, on non-New Holland equipment.

sage if required.
RCIL11DSP531BBG 4
“Operator”
Every operator must have a unique ID for reporting pur-
poses within the software. To share a common list of op-
erators with multiple vehicles, create the list on one vehi-
cle, and then transfer the list, via the memory stick, to the
other vehicles. This ensures that the operator uses the
same internal ID across all vehicles.
A maximum of 20 operators can be created.

“Current Layout”
“Default” is the default selection in the “Current Layout”
window (1). The default layout for all six “Run” screens,
the left-hand area (if applicable), and the “Summary Data”
screens (if applicable) cannot be changed. The windows
are dimmed to indicate their locked condition. The display
uses the default layout for all screens whenever “Default”
is selected in the “Current Layout” window.
NOTE: Each farming application provides default layouts.
The operator can restore the default layout by selecting
“Default” in the “Current Layout” window.
“Run 1” is the default selection in the “Run screen” window

(2), which indicates that this is the layout for the first “Run”
screen. RCIL11DSP140BBG 3
“2 x 6” is the default selection in the “Number of Windows”

window (3), which indicates that the “Run 1” screen is
organized in two columns with six rows.
“Run” screen layouts

“Run” screen layouts are saved to the vehicle type and are
not saved with the other operator preferences. The oper-
ator creates screen layouts for the vehicle in use. “Run”
screen layouts created for one vehicle type can be shared
with other vehicles of the same type, but cannot be ac-
cessed on another vehicle type, nor imported into another
vehicle type.
To change the layout of the “Run” screens, the operator

must create a new layout.
A new layout may include an operator’s preferences for

all six “Run” screens, the left-hand area (if applicable),
and the two “Summary Data” screens (if applicable). A

NOTE: How the “Run” screen layouts are organized de-
pends on how the display is used. When the display is
widely used across different vehicle types, the selection
list consists of layouts created on that vehicle type. When
multiple operators share the display for a single vehicle
type, each operator may prefer their own layout. Use the
provided worksheets at the end of this section to plan the
layout of the “Run” screens. RCIL11DSP146BBG 8

“Number of Windows” (columns and rows)

Press the “Number of Windows” window to change the
number of columns and rows on the selected “Run”
screen. The number of columns and rows can be different
for each “Run” screen.
The first number always indicates the number of columns.

The second number indicates the number of rows.
NOTE: A “Run” screen has a fixed size. Selecting fewer
columns and rows increases the size of the windows to
fill the screen area. Selecting more columns and rows
decreases the size of the windows to fill the screen area.
The pop-up options window displays.

RCIL11DSP151BBG 11
Press the desired setting.
The layout for the selected “Run” screen immediately up-
dates to reflect the selection. In this example, the “Run 3”
screen has a two column layout with four rows for placing
eight or fewer windows.
RCIL11DSP153BBG 12
Choose windows
Most windows use only one location on a “Run” screen.
There are exceptions, however. For example, map win-
dows require multiple rows and/or columns. Refer to the
appropriate software operating guide to identify windows
that span multiple rows and/or columns.
The "Run Layout" screen shows the overall area used by

such windows by repeating the window label in italics.
RCIL11DSP155BBG 13
2-41
Any window can appear only once on any “Run” screen.

The same window can also appear on different “Run”
screens, but never more than once on the same “Run”
screen.
When you place a window for the second time on any

“Run” screen, the window is placed at the new location
and removed from its previous location.
NOTE: Some applications will not display the same win-
dow in the left-hand area and on a “Run” screen at the
same time. If a window appears in the left-hand area, it
gets priority since it displays on every screen. If the same
window is also present on a “Run” screen, a blank area
appears in its place. See the appropriate software oper-
ating guide for further information.

Left-hand area
Customize the left-hand area, if applicable, in the same
fashion as the “Run” screens.
NOTE: Some vehicles determine the total content of the
left hand area and do not allow any customization.
To customize the left-hand area:

1. Select “Left Area” in the “Run Screen” window.
2. Select your preferred layout (number of rows) in the
“Number of Windows” window.

5. Repeat Steps 3 and 4 until the layout is complete.
2-44
Because the vehicle owns the left-hand area, there

are some differences between the selections for “Run”
screens and the selections for the left-hand area:
• The left-hand area is a single column layout with fewer
row selections to ensure readability.
RCIL11DSP465BBG 22
• The vehicle limits the selection of windows to reporting

windows that are appropriate to the left-hand area.

“Summary Data” screens (“Precision Farm-

ing” application required)
An operator can also use the "Run Layout" screen to
customize the “Summary Data” screens (Home > Per-
formance > Sum1/Sum2). The “Summary Data” screens
contain performance information that is appropriate to
the vehicle and its function. For example, the summary
content for tractors differs from the summary content for
combines.
Refer to the appropriate software operating guide to

understand the purpose and operation of the “Summary
Data” screens before customizing these screens.
RCIL11DSP167BBG 24
To customize a “Summary Data” screen:

1. Select “Summary Data 1” or “Summary Data 2” in the
“Run Screen” window.
2. Select your preferred layout (number of columns and
rows) in the “Number of Windows” window.
3. Press a location on the layout screen to display the
pop-up options list.
4. Press a window label for placement.
5. Repeat Steps 3 and 4 until the layout is complete.
NOTE: Some windows are only appropriate to the “Sum-
mary Data” screens, and therefore are not available on
the “Run” screens. Other windows are common to both
the “Run” screens and the “Summary Data” screens.

"Vehicle Name" window

Use the “Vehicle Name” window to create a user-friendly name for the vehicle in which the display is currently installed.
With the IntelliView IV display, information can be shared:
• Between farming applications
• Between vehicles of the same type (tractor to tractor)
• Between vehicles of different types (combine to tractor
and vice versa)
• Between the display and the desktop software
The information exchange occurs by sharing the memory

stick between vehicles and/or the desktop software. To
accomplish this, the display and the farming applications
need a means to differentiate one vehicle from another.
Each vehicle already has a unique identification number –

its Product Identification Number (PIN) or serial number.
No other vehicle, whether a combine, a tractor or sprayer,
has the same PIN or serial number.
The display transparently identifies the information from

each vehicle using its PIN or serial number.
RCIL11DSP171BBG 1
The “Vehicle Name” window allows an operator to supply
a more user-friendly name for the vehicle. This vehicle
name, once created, is what appears in the display and
the desktop software.
NOTE: The “Vehicle Name” window can be placed on any
“Run” screen for operator convenience.
NOTE: The vehicle PIN or serial number is entered at soft-
ware installation on the display. On tractors, the "Vehicle"
screen (Home > Toolbox > Vehicle) is the only location
where the PIN displays. On large combines, the "Com-
bine" screen (Home > Toolbox > Comb) is the only lo-
cation where the serial number displays. When using a
generic vehicle, the “Vehicle Name” window is only avail-
able on the “Run” screens, and there is no identification
of the vehicle by its PIN or serial number.
NOTE: See 4-1 for more information on sharing informa-
tion between vehicles.

Generic vehicles
When the display is on a generic vehicle – generic tractor,
generic combine, or generic sprayer – the “Vehicle Name”
window is only available on the “Run” screens. The “Ve-
hicle Name” window is not a part of the default layout and
can be added by an operator when customizing the “Run”
screens, if desired.
When analyzing harvesting, product application, or other

farming operation results from generic vehicles with the
desktop software, the ability to differentiate results from
different vehicles of the same type depends on the vehicle
in question.

PIN.
The generic tractor and generic sprayer do not differenti-

ate results by the vehicle PIN or the display PIN, and the
desktop software cannot compare results from different
vehicles of the same type.
NOTE: Planters communicate with the display on the CAN
bus. The planter’s PIN is among the information that is
communicated. Even when used with generic tractor soft-
ware, each planter’s product application results can be
distinguished by the specific planter on the desktop soft-
ware.

The value in the “Alarm Look Ahead” window, along with
a minimum default distance, determines when the alarm
behavior for boundaries and obstacles occurs.
The alarm zone is different for forward and reverse oper-

ation.
If the vehicle is operating in a forward gear, the

approaching boundary or obstacle warning occurs:
• When the vehicle is within 5 m (16 ft) of the boundary
or obstacle
OR
RCIL11DSP473BBG 9
• When the vehicle, at its current speed, is within the
alarm look ahead distance of the boundary obstacle,
as defined in the “Alarm Look Ahead” window
If the vehicle is operating in a reverse gear, the

approaching boundary or obstacle warning occurs:

"PRECISION FARMING" APPLICATION: BUILDING BLOCKS
Introduction
The “Precision Farming” application adds a unique set of tools to enable data collection. “Precision Farming” is trans-
parent when present, but it can be used by most applications on the display. Its presence is indicated by a common
set of screens that it adds to the “Performance,” “Diagnostics,” and “Toolbox” screens.
This chapter explains:

• The building blocks of the “Precision Farming” application – grower, farm, field, task, crop type, tag – on the “Profile
Setup” screen (Home > Performance > Profile) and on the “Run” screens
• The additional tools – implement, work condition, operator, operation, operational instance – that may be present
on the “Profile Setup” screen or the “Run” screens as required
"Profile Setup" screen

The “Grower,” “Farm,” “Field,” “Task,” “Crop Type,” and
“Tag” windows are the basic building blocks of the “Pre-
cision Farming” application and are the primary filters for
viewing production results. With the exception of the “Tag”
window, these windows must be populated whenever the
“Precision Farming” application is present.
With the exception of tasks, the information for the win-

dows can be created on the display and shared between
vehicles. Task information is vehicle-specific and can only
be entered on the display.
RCIL11DSP179BBG 1
Individual applications determine whether the “Imple-

ment”, “Work Condition,” “Operator,” “Operation,” or
“Operational Instance” windows are required. The “Im-
plement” window is added to the “Profile Setup” screen
for tractors.
The “Work Condition” window is required:

• On combines when the Automatic Crop Settings (ACS)

A grower is an independent agri-business.
A grower may work a single farm or many farms. A grower

may also provide contract services – planting, spraying,
harvesting – to other growers.
As such, the grower is always linked to a farm to en-

able the user to view all crop operations for an individual

“Farm” and “Field”

To the display and the desktop software, a farm is a large
geographical entity that is composed of smaller entities
called fields. All crop production tasks occur within a field
that is defined by GPS coordinates.
As such, all crop production tasks are linked to a field, and

the field is linked to a farm.
A field contains one crop type this season. Next season,

the same field may contain a different crop type. In areas
where two crops per growing season are typical, the same
field may contain two different crop types in the same sea-
son.
The display and the desktop software treat the field as a RCIL11DSP189BBG 11
geographical container in which the crop tasks and pro-

duction data are recorded for this season. Those crop
tasks and their production results have a relatively short
life span when compared to the life span of the field and
farm, so field, task and crop type are independent.
The window options for a farm are the same as those for
a grower.
Press “Select” to choose a farm from the user-defined

list of farms:

“Task”
A task is the performance of work (with an implement or
header) on a specific crop type in one field of one farm
for one grower. For example:
• When planting, an operator (using planter Z) may plant
corn of a certain seed brand and coating (tag) in the
field FD321 on the Plank Road farm for the grower AB
Farms.
• When spraying, an operator (using sprayer Y) may
spray herbicide of a certain brand (tag) in the field
FD321 on the Plank Road farm for the grower AB
Farms.
• When harvesting, an operator (using combine X) may
harvest soybeans of a certain seed brand (tag) in the RCIL11DSP206BBG 21
field FD321 on the Plank Road farm for the grower AB
Farms.
A new task is automatically created when a field is cre-

ated. The software creates the task name with the date
and time stamp for the task – yy/mm/dd-hh:mm:ss.
yy = year
mm = month
dd = day
hh = hour
mm = minute
ss = second
NOTE: The format for the auto-generated task name can-
not be changed and is not influenced by the selection in
the “Date Format” window on the “Operator Setup” screen
(Home > Toolbox > Oper).
An operator may edit the task name, if desired. A new

task can be created at any time.
Each task is limited to approximately 8 h of operation (sys-

tem collecting GPS data). After that time period, a mes-
sage displays to alert the operator that a new task has
been created automatically.
As a result, the work performed in the field, depending on

its duration, may be composed of multiple tasks.
A maximum of 1200 tasks can be created.

Operating notes
All summary data and GPS data is stored at the task
level. To make this information more usable:
• Only one tag may be assigned to a task. When a differ-

change the tag.
• Only one operator may be assigned to a task. When a
different operator takes over the current work, the oper-
ator must create a new task. Change the task first, and
then change the operator.
• Only one operation may be assigned to a task. When a
new operation is selected for the same field, the oper-
ator must create a new task. Change the task first, and
then change the operation.
• Only one vehicle may be assigned to a task. Tasks
cannot be shared between vehicles.
• Only one implement may be assigned to a task. If a new
implement takes over the current operation in the same
field, the operator must create a new task. Change the
task first, and then change the implement.
• Only one work condition may be assigned to a task.
If a new or a modified work condition is needed, the

“Tag”
A tag acts like an electronic note for the grower or operator
to save another variable in crop production and to filter
production results for that variable. This may be useful,
for example, to identify seed varieties when harvesting.
The tag is linked to the task, and only one tag may be as-
signed to a task. A maximum of 100 tags can be created,
and a unique ID is assigned to each tag.
When multiple vehicles are used, the tags should be cre-

ated on one vehicle and then transferred to the other ve-
hicles via the memory stick. This ensures that tags are
identified by a uniform set of IDs across all vehicles.
NOTE: Tags can also be created with the desktop soft- RCIL11DSP215BBG 27
ware and then imported.

uniform set of identification numbers across all vehicles.
Refer to the tractor software operating guide for additional
information. In some cases, specific vehicle settings are
stored to the implement so the settings are recalled when-
ever that implement is used.
An implement can only be created or changed when the

Additional windows
The individual farming applications determine whether the
“Work Condition,” “Operator,” “Operation,” and “Opera-

are not a part of the “Profile Setup” screen (Home > Per-
formance > Profile). The operator can add the windows to
any “Run” screen or view them on screens that are unique
to the vehicle.
“Work Condition”
In many instances, vehicle settings must change based
on:
• The work being performed
• Weather conditions
• Field conditions
OR
• Crop conditions
The “Work Condition” window describes the settings for

the condition. For example, a vehicle can have different
settings for dry product versus wet product, or for dry field
RCIL11DSP221BBG 1
conditions versus wet field conditions. Storing the settings
by the different conditions allows an operator to quickly
change vehicle setup by selecting the proper work condi-
tion. Refer to the vehicle operator’s manual to learn the
specific settings that can be saved under a work condi-
tion.
A maximum of 40 work conditions can be created.

“Operational Instance” (if present)

In many cases, an operation is only performed once in a
field for a crop type in a growing season: plowing, seed-
ing, harvesting, etc. However, there are circumstances
where the same operation needs to be performed more
than once in a growing season for a crop type. The “Oper-
ational Instance” window is available to separate the data
that is collected for the first operation from any repeated
operations.
For example:
• When heavy rains flood areas of a field, and a crop
type must be replanted, increment the value in the “Op-
erational Instance” window to “Plant 2” for the second
planting. The coverage data from the first planting does RCIL11DSP483BBG 11
not effect the second planting in section or overlap con-
trol, and the total applied acreage does not conflict with
the total field acres.
• It may be necessary to apply herbicide multiple times
to control invasive weeds. The same product is ap-
plied to the same crop type in the same field on two or
more separate occasions. Use a different operational
instance for each application of herbicide. In this way,
the coverage data from the first application does not af-
fect the second application in section or overlap control,
and the total applied acreage does not conflict with the
total field acres.
Unique data – coverage, “as applied,” or performance –

is stored for each instance of the operation. When a new
instance is created or selected with the window, data col-
lection begins for the new instance, and a new task is cre-
ated.
A new operational instance can only be created or se-

lected when the vehicle is not working – that is, no data is
being collected.

"PRECISION FARMING" APPLICATION: MAPS AND MAP TOOLS
Introduction
This chapter explains how to use maps and map tools on the “Run” screens.
The “Precision Farming” application offers two different map types:

• Work maps show the results for the current operation
• The swath map shows swath alignment (overlap and skip) and can be used to align the vehicle to the next swath
Work maps
Work maps vary with the farming application:
• Coverage maps show the work path of the vehicle or im-
plement through the field during the current operation.
This is the default setting when the display is powered.
The coverage map is common to all farming applica-
tions.
• Application maps show the “as applied” rate for the
product – e.g., seed, fertilizer, etc., – as the vehicle and
implement, if applicable, move through the field.
• Prescription maps show the prescribed rate of product
application in the field or sections of the field.
• Yield maps show harvest results – ton/ha (bushels/
acre) and moisture (%M) – as the vehicle moves
through the field.
RCIL11DSP258BBG 1
• Performance maps show an aspect of vehicle produc-
tivity – for example, fuel economy – as the vehicle (with
its header or implement) moves through the field.

Map sizes Coverage map: 1 x 4 example

Four different work map windows – “Map 1 x 4,” “Map 2
x 3,” “Map 2 x 4,” and “Map 2 x 5” – are available for the
“Run” screens. The map windows differ in size, but not in
function. The first number of the map label indicates the
number of columns used on the “Run” screens, and the
second number indicates the number of rows.
Some applications permit placement of the “Map 1 x 4”

window in the left-hand area. When the “Map 1 x 4”
window is in the left-hand area and on a “Run” screen,
the left-hand area has priority. When the “Run” screen
is viewed, the “Map 1 x 4” window only appears in the
left-hand area.

is viewed, the map only appears on the “Run” screen.
NOTE: Even though map windows can be placed on mul-
tiple “Run” screens, there is only one map. Changing the
data displayed on one “Run” screen changes all maps on
different “Run” screens to the same settings. Changing
the zoom setting works the same way.

is allocated to it. Any “Run” screen may be laid out in 2
columns by 4 rows, 2 columns by 5 rows, or 2 columns by
6 rows.
The “Map 1 x 4” window on a “Run” screen with a 2 x 4

layout is larger than the “Map 1 x 4” window on a “Run”
screen with a 2 x 6 layout.
The “Map 2 x 5” window on a “Run” screen with a 2 x 5

layout fills the entire screen, but the “Map 2 x 5” window

Swath map
The swath map is a single-layer map that shows swath
alignment (overlap and skip) and can be used to align the
vehicle to the next swath.
Map sizes “Swath Map 1 x 4” example
Two different swath map windows – “Swath Map 1 x 4” and
“Swath Map 2 x 5” – are available for the “Run” screens.
The windows differ in size, but not in function. The first
number of the map label indicates the number of columns
used on the “Run” screens, and the second number indi-
cates the number of rows.
Some software allows the operators to place the “Swath

Map 1 x 4” window in the left-hand area. When the “Swath
Map 1 x 4” window is in the left-hand area and on a “Run”
screen, the left-hand area has priority. When the “Run”
screen is viewed, the “Swath Map 1 x 4” window only dis-
plays in the left-hand area.
When the “Swath Map 1 x 4” window is in the left-hand

area, and the “Swath Map 2 x 5” window is on a “Run” RCIL11DSP030BBG 1

position of the vehicle in relation to the two swaths on
either side of the vehicle. RCIL11DSP032BBG 3
Vehicle position on the swath map is fixed in the center

of the map window. The field and swath pattern rotate
around the vehicle when the vehicle changes heading.
The compass in the upper left-hand corner of the swath

map rotates to indicate the current heading of the vehicle.

Map contents
If the vehicle is working, the swath map displays the swath
width for the vehicle (with its implement or header) as a
green area outlined in black as the vehicle moves. If the
vehicle is not working, no swath information is mapped as
the vehicle moves.
NOTE: The color used for coverage has no significance:
it does not represent a level of yield, application, or per-
formance results.
RAIL12DSP1002BA 11
If a recorded swath is selected for the field, a red line

represents the current swath, and blue lines represent the
swaths on either side. The recorded swath also displays
if it is in the current view of the field.
The autoguidance swath pattern is always overlaid on the

working swaths when the “Autoguidance” application is
present.
RCIL11DSP039BBG 12
The swath map also displays any field marks, boundaries,

and obstacles that are present in the current view of the

Swath alignment
The swath map can reveal problems with swath
alignment as in this example where the vehicle offset
values were not entered correctly. A pattern of overlap
in one pass, followed by skip in the next pass, indicates
that the implement or header was not set up properly.
This may occur if:
• The implement or header is offset on the vehicle, but no
offset value was entered.
• The wrong value was entered for the offset amount.
OR
• The wrong direction was entered for the offset: a pos-

itive value was used for the offset amount instead of a RAIL12DSP1004BA 14
negative value, or vice versa.

The swath map can also reveal problems with the
implement width or header width definition.
• If the same value is entered for swath width (or working
width) and implement width (or header width), a skip is
present between each pass.
RAIL12DSP1005BA 15
• If the values for implement width (or header width) and

swath width (or working width) are switched, each pass
overlaps the previous pass.

• How to create field boundaries
• The boundary warning behavior
• Windows that are directly related to field boundaries
• How to create field obstacles
• The obstacle warning behavior
• How to create field marks
Field boundaries
Field boundaries can be created with the display when:
• The “Precision Farming” application is present
AND
• The vehicle is equipped with a GPS receiver

NOTE: The memory stick must be present when the op-
erator creates a boundary on the display.
NOTE: Field boundaries can also be created with the
desktop software.
The “Rec Boundary” window (placement label: Boundary

Record) is not part of the default layout and must be added
to a “Run” screen. If required, create a new name in the
“Current Layout” window on the “Run Layout “screen and RCIL11DSP051BBG 1
add the “Rec Boundary” window to the “Run” screen of
your choice (Home > Toolbox > Layout).
One field can contain multiple boundaries depending on

the swath patterns that are needed to work the field. All
boundaries are saved to the field. If a field is deleted on
the “Delete” screen (Home > Data Management > Delete),
all of the boundaries for the field are also deleted. Delete
individual boundaries using the “Map” screen (Home >
Data Management > Map).
3-46
3 - SETUP
Create a boundary
With the vehicle in an appropriate location in the field,
press the “Record” button to begin boundary creation.
NOTE: The software adds a safety margin to the width
of the implement (or header) for whenever the vehicle
passes close to a boundary: 1 m (3 ft) or 10 % of the
implement width (or header width), whichever is greater.
The warning behavior for a boundary is triggered based
on the implement width (or header width) plus the safety
margin.

The “Boundary Properties” window displays to prompt

the operator for boundary properties:
• Boundary name
• Recording edge

“Stop” button, the “Cancel” button, and the
“Recording” message.
NOTE: The “Recording Edge” window determines

whether the fence in the icon appears in the left, center,
or right of the icon.
The “Recording Boundary” icon in the status and warning

icon area disappears when the boundary is automatically
completed or when the operator presses the “Stop” button
or the “Cancel” button. RCIL11DSP058BBG 17
The vehicle can be working while boundary recording

takes place. Coverage and work results can be recorded
at the same time.
The exact path that the vehicle travels is recorded as the

field boundary.
RCIL11DSP278BBG 18
The boundary can be completed in one of two

ways, depending on the selection in the “Bound.
Auto-Complete” window on the “Precision Farming
Setup” screen (Home > Toolbox > PF):
• When the “Bound. Auto-Complete” window is set to
“On,” the software automatically closes the boundary
when the vehicle is within one implement width (or
header width) of the boundary’s starting point.
• When the “Bound Auto-Complete” window is set to
“Off,” the operator must press the “Stop” button in
the “Rec Boundary” window. The software draws a
straight line from the vehicle’s current position to the
boundary’s starting point.
A “Boundary is complete” message displays.

3 - SETUP
An outer boundary can have as many jogs as necessary

to describe the shape of a field. However, the opera-
tor should never cross the recorded path of the vehicle
(with its implement or header) when recording a bound-
ary. Two or more closed polygons cannot be recorded
as one boundary. After a boundary is recorded, the soft-
ware checks the integrity of the boundary and simplifies its
structure. Any crossed paths are deleted. The resulting
boundary may or may not be acceptable to the operator.

“Stop” button
Press the “Stop” button while recording a boundary to im-
mediately complete the boundary with a straight line be-
tween the current position of the vehicle and the boundary
starting point.
The “Recording Boundary” icon disappears from the sta-

tus and warning icon area.
RCIL11DSP058BBG 21
This is useful whenever a straight line is appropriate to

complete a boundary.
In this example, boundary recording starts in the upper

left-hand corner of the field and proceeds clockwise
around its circumference.
On the fourth side of the field, the operator presses the

“Stop” button to complete the boundary with a straight line.
The final section of the boundary is automatically mapped

as a straight line (shown in red) between the current ve-
hicle location and the start of the boundary.

3 - SETUP
“Pause” button
The “Pause” button is useful for any field, or field section,
that can be defined by straight line segments. Any dis-
tance traveled while boundary recording is paused is au-
tomatically joined by a straight line when recording is re-
sumed. Using the pause feature, an operator can record
only the corners of the field and allow the software to draw
straight line boundary segments between the corners.
RCIL11DSP058BBG 23
Whenever boundary recording is paused,

the “Recording Boundary” icon flashes in the
status and warning icon area as a reminder
to the operator that recording has been
paused. The “Rec Boundary” window also
updates to reflect that recording is paused.
RCIL11DSP067BBG 24
3-55
3 - SETUP
The illustration shows the recording of a field with straight

borders using the “Pause” button. With the vehicle lo-
cated in the upper left-hand corner of the field, the op-
erator starts recording and then immediately pauses until
the vehicle arrives at the next corner of the field.
NOTE: A point is immediately recorded when the “Record”
button is pressed after recording has been paused.
At the next corner, the operator presses the “Record” but-

ton and then the “Pause” button; recording is paused until
the operator presses the “Record” button at the next cor-
ner of the field.
NOTE: The map does not draw the boundary line while
RCIL11DSP264BBG 25
recording is paused. When the next corner is recorded,
the map updates to display the straight boundary line
recorded during the pause.
In this fashion, a field boundary may be defined as a series

of straight line segments joined at the field corners.
NOTE: Use the “Stop” button to close the boundary after
the final corner of the field is passed.

Boundary warning
The “Bound Alarm Audio” window on the
“Precision Farming Setup” screen (Home
> Toolbox > PF) determines whether an
audible alarm sounds when the vehicle
(with its implement or header) enters the
boundary warning zone.
The audible alarm is automatically enabled and cannot be

disabled whenever the “Autoguidance” application is ac-
tive in the display. The window is dimmed and cannot be
selected. The audible alarm beeps slowly for 3 s, and
then more rapidly for 2 s to alert the operator that the ve-
hicle (with its implement or header) is approaching a field
boundary. After this 5 s period, a single alarm tone sounds
RCIL11DSP265BBG 29
once every 30 s until the warning condition clears. The
alarm is accompanied by a flashing “Approaching Bound-
ary” icon in the status and warning icon area.
When the “Autoguidance” application is not active, the op-

erator can turn the audible alarm ON or OFF. If the alarm is
turned on, a single tone sounds once every 30 s until the
warning condition clears. If the alarm is turned OFF, no
audible alarm occurs. The “Approaching Boundary” icon
displays in the status and warning icon area regardless of
whether the audible alarm is turned ON or OFF. The icon
flashes when the alarm is turned ON and displays without
flashing when the alarm is turned OFF.
NOTE: The alarm behavior occurs if any part of the vehi-
cle (with its implement or header) enters the alarm zone.

Create an obstacle
Three different types of obstacles are available:
• Open
• Closed
• Point
The software adds a safety margin to the width of the

implement (or header) for whenever the vehicle passes
close to an obstacle: 1 m (3 ft) or 10 % of the implement
width (or header width), whichever is greater. The warn-
ing behavior for an obstacle is triggered based on the im-
plement width (or header width) plus the safety margin.
The obstacle type selection should be based on the width
of the obstacle and how much advance warning the oper- RCIL11DSP280BBG 2
ator needs to avoid the obstacle.
An open obstacle (1) is mapped as a narrow line of GPS
coordinates, marked by the path that the vehicle travels.
The open type is designed for marking a long but narrow
obstacle – a shallow stream, gully, trench, or similar ob-
stacle.
A closed obstacle (2) is mapped as a polygon (similar to

a boundary), marked by the path that the vehicle trav-
els around the obstacle. The closed type is designed for
marking any large obstacle – a pond, river, tree, grove, or
similar obstacle.
A point obstacle (3) is mapped as single GPS coordinate

marked with the vehicle. The point type is designed for
marking any small obstacle – a rock, boulder, post, or
similar obstacle.

audible alarm sounds when the vehicle (with
its implement or header) enters the obstacle
warning zone.
The audible alarm is automatically enabled and cannot be

disabled whenever the “Autoguidance” application is ac-
tive in the display. The window is dimmed and cannot be
selected. The audible alarm beeps slowly for 3 s , and
then more rapidly for 2 s to alert the operator that the ve-
hicle (with its implement or header) is approaching a field
obstacle. After this 5 s period, a single alarm tone sounds RCIL11DSP270BBG 26
once every 30 s until the warning condition clears. The
alarm is accompanied by a flashing “Approaching Obsta-
cle” icon in the status and warning icon area.
When the “Autoguidance” application is not active, the op-

erator can turn the audible alarm ON or OFF. If the alarm is
turned ON, a single tone sounds once every 30 s until the
warning condition clears. If the alarm is turned OFF, no
audible alarm occurs. The “Approaching Obstacle” icon
displays in the status and warning icon area regardless of
whether the audible alarm is turned ON or OFF. The icon
flashes when the alarm is turned ON and displays without
flashing when the alarm is turned OFF.

Base station components
NOTE: The base station must be set up and operating before a successful connection between the vehicle and the
base station is possible.
The base station consists of a GPS receiver with a small display screen (1), a GPS disk antenna (2), an RTK radio (3)
and a broadcast antenna (4) for communicating with multiple autoguidance-equipped vehicles (5) at the same time.
The autoguidance-equipped vehicle has its own GPS receiver for the GPS signal and a radio receiver to receive the
local information from the base station.
The tripod (6) is an optional, portable solution for locating the base station at a consistent location in a field during field
work. An alternative might be as simple as a steel post driven into the ground at a location where it will be available
from season to season without being disturbed.
A radio repeater (7) is also shown. This is a solution for extending the base station output around a large obstruction.
3-93
3 - SETUP
Base station location

Some planning is needed to pick the optimum location or
locations for the base station(s) during field work. Your
New Holland dealer is available to assist you with a site
survey.
The GPS antenna is The component that requires the

most attention when picking locations.
For maximum repeatability and accuracy:

• Install the GPS antenna at a height and field location
that will not change from one season to the next
• Ensure that the GPS antenna is level
The RTK broadcast antenna, mounted with the same

bracket as the GPS antenna, is second in importance
since it must remain in communication with the vehicle
throughout the field. The location of the GPS receiver,
case, and battery power supply are a matter of conve-
nience.
Consider these factors when choosing field positions for

the base station:
• The position must be away from vehicle traffic patterns
to prevent accidental contact.
RCPH11DSP017BAG 2
• The position must be repeatable – easily located from
season to season, year to year.
• Imagine the position through the entire growing season
when there may be tall standing crop between the loca-
tion and vehicle.
• The support for the GPS antenna must be sturdy and
solid, to prevent movement and tipping from normal
wind or rain during field work.
• The position must offer a clear view of the sky, away
from or above buildings or other large objects that can
reflect signals.
• The position must offer clear communication between
the broadcast radio antenna and the receiver on the
vehicle throughout the field. In general, use line of sight
as a guide. If you cannot see the radio receiver on
the vehicle when it is at the lowest point of a field or
behind a rise from the GPS antenna height position, the
broadcast may be lost at those locations.
Finally, test a location before you commit to it. Base sta-

tion components are portable and lend themselves to ex-
perimentation.

3 - SETUP
RTK base station setup

The base station has an Autobase function which allows
it to determine the GPS coordinates for the receiver’s
current position. Once it determines its GPS location, it
stores that information in the base station.
Each time the base station is moved to a new location,

Autobase is used to save the GPS coordinates for that
position.
When the base station is returned to a previously saved

position, it searches its library for stored locations and
loads the correct coordinate file. Autobase is no longer
required for known locations.
At each new location, the operator must provide the base

station with the correct GPS antenna height before Auto-
base can be used. Measure antenna height (h) from the
ground to the base of the GPS antenna. Enter the value
with the keypad on the base station.
Refer to the base station operator’s manual for additional

information.

OmniSTAR® subscription service setup

For systems using DGPS correction, the GPS receiver is
initially configured to match the OmniSTAR subscription
service selected for your system.
NOTE: WAAS in North America, EGNOS in Europe, and
Autonomous require no subscription.
The four subscription choices available from OmniSTAR

are:
• OmniSTAR HP
• OmniSTAR XP
• OmniSTAR VBS
• OmniSTAR RTX
The DGPS receiver on your vehicle may have different

GPS signal capabilities. If an OmniSTAR capable re-
ceiver is being used, contact OmniSTAR for signal activa-
tion. Once enabled by OmniSTAR, the correction method
RCIL11DSP327BBG 1
can be changed at any time by changing your subscrip-
tion service. Contact OmniSTAR to add or change the
subscription for your receiver.
With either an OmniSTAR HP or OmniSTAR XP sub-

scription, the system supports operating with automatic
VBS backup or manual backup.
This manual often refers to “HP/XP” to avoid duplicating

operating instructions. HP and XP are separate subscrip-
tions with different costs and accuracies, and you choose
only one. In terms of display operation, though, they are
identical.
This is further complicated by their regional availability. In

some parts of the world, both HP and XP are available. In
other parts of the world, HP works better and only HP is
available. In yet other parts of the world, XP works better
and only XP is available.
Regardless, your precision farming system works equally

well with HP and XP, and the controller automatically rec-
ognizes what type of signal it is receiving.

3 - SETUP
“Converge Distance”
The “Converge Distance” window is used with HP/XP to
reduce the convergence time associated with this technol-
ogy. The setting in this window affects the signal accuracy
required for initial convergence: the system continues to
converge to the full signal accuracy of HP/XP technology,
but the system becomes available for use earlier.
Converge distance is the distance that HP/XP uses to es-

tablish the location of a point while converging. The sys-
tem default is 0.102 m (4.0 in). Increasing the distance
allows the system to be ready for use earlier, but with less
accuracy. For example, increasing the converge distance
to 0.5 m (20 in) or 1 m (39 in) allows the system to be
ready for use much earlier, but with less accuracy as the
RCIL11DSP494BBG 10
distance is increased.
If the planned work does not require the highest level of

accuracy, increase the converge distance so that the sys-
tem will be available for use earlier. If the planned work
does require great accuracy, set the “Converge Distance”
window to the default value of 0.102 m (4 in). In both
cases, the system will ultimately converge to the full ac-
curacy of HP/XP technology.
NOTE: Do not confuse the converge distance with the
accuracy of the technology.
Press the “Converge Distance” window to access the nu-
meric keypad.
Use the keypad to enter a new converge distance. Ac-

ceptable values are 0.1 - 1 m (4 - 39 in).

3 - SETUP
“Position Recall”
Position recall is used with the HP/XP technology to re-
duce the convergence time associated with these tech-
nologies. Position recall can be used independently or
with VBS backup.
NOTE: This feature is also available when RTX correction
is in use.
To enable this feature, press the “Position Recall” window.

The pop-up options window displays.
Press “Enable” to enable position recall.
RCIL11DSP406BBG 12
When position recall is enabled, the system automatically

saves the current GPS location of the vehicle – specif-
ically, the receiver – before the ignition switch is turned
OFF. When the ignition switch is turned ON again, the
saved GPS location is used to restart the converging
process. Using the last known GPS coordinates reduces
the signal convergence time.
To take advantage of this feature,

• The system must be turned OFF while the signal is con-
verged—that is, receiving proper GPS input to record.
If the vehicle is left in the field or an open outdoor area
at the end of the work session, the current coordinates
are saved. If the vehicle is moved inside a building, the
signal is blocked and no coordinates are saved. If the
vehicle is always powered down inside a building, posi- RCIL11DSP407BBG 13
tion recall should not be enabled since it will not reduce
convergence time.
• The vehicle must not be moved—not even a short dis-
tance—between the time the ignition switch is turned
OFF and the time that initialization is complete. Initial-
ization is not the same as convergence.
With position recall enabled, do NOT move the vehicle
until you check system status when the vehicle is turned
ON.
After the display starts up, an information message dis-

plays: “In progress, please wait. Do not move [the] vehicle
until complete or convergence time will be increased. Has
the vehicle been moved since [the system was] turned
off?
NOTE: The operator must answer this question correctly.
Failure to do so may prevent the system from converging
at all.

“GPS PDOP”
Placement label: GPS PDOP
The “GPS PDOP” window reports GPS signal quality

at the vehicle location. Position Dilution Of Precision
(PDOP) offers the best overview since it reflects the
geometry of the satellites above the vehicle. A low PDOP
means that the positioning of satellites is good and that
good positional accuracy can be expected. In general,
any value below 3 offers good working results.

During operation, the most common status message is a

variation on the DGPS-n message – “HP/XP-n,” “RTK-n,” RCIL11DSP370BBG 10
“VBS-n.” The message indicates:
• That the system is ready for use
• The number of satellites that are in view
• The type of correction that is in use
During startup, the most common message is “Wait-n.”

The message indicates:
• That the system is acquiring satellites
• The number of satellites that the system has acquired.

NOTE: This screen is only active when the installed GPS receiver is capable of receiving National Marine Electronics
Association (NMEA) sentences of the GSV (satellites in view) type. These include Trimble®-equivalent receivers
such as the NH 162, NH 252, NH 262, and NH 372 receivers.
Press the “GPS2” icon on the navigation bar to display the
“Constellation Map” screen.
RAIL12DSP1424BA 1
The screen is divided into an upper table area and a lower

map area. Both areas provide valuable information on the
number of satellites that are currently visible and tracked
(in use) by the GPS receiver.
The table area displays information about a maximum of

10 satellites. Each satellite is identified by its number. The
number is black when the satellite is tracked (in use) and
red when the satellite is only visible (not in use).
NOTE: A satellite can be visible, but not tracked, because
its signal is too poor.
RAIL12DSP1424BA 2
For each tracked satellite, the table provides its Signal-

to-Noise Ratio (SNR), elevation, and azimuth. For each
visible satellite, the table provides only its elevation and
azimuth; the SNR value is grayed out.
The map area below the chart visually represents the lo-
cations of the satellites in relation to the vehicle and true
north. All visible and tracked satellites are shown and
identified by their number in the same black and red color
code.
NOTE: The vehicle location is always at the very center
of the map.
RAIL12DSP1425BA 3
3-135
3 - SETUP
Azimuth and elevation are angles used here to define the

position of a satellite in the sky relative to the vehicle.
The azimuth angle is the compass bearing on the horizon,

relative to true north, of a point directly beneath a satellite.
Compass bearings are measured clockwise in degrees
from north. Azimuth angles range from 0 ° (north) through
90 ° (east), 180 ° (south), 270 ° (west), and back to 360 °
(north again).
In the illustration shown, the vehicle is located at the cen-

ter green circle. A satellite with an azimuth angle of 207 °
RCIL11DSP008ABG 4
is currently located 207 ° from north in a clockwise direc-
tion relative to the vehicle.
The elevation angle of a satellite, also called altitude, is
determined by first finding the compass bearing on the
horizon relative to true north, and then measuring the an-
gle between that point and the satellite relative to the vehi-
cle. Elevation angles for objects above the horizon range
from 207 ° (on the horizon) up to 90 ° (at the zenith).
RCIL11DSP009ABG 5
The more useful satellites (1) will always be the satellites

closest to vehicle at the center point of the map. They
are the satellites that are at higher elevations relative to
the vehicle. The higher elevation means that the satel-
lites will remain useful for a longer period of time because
their signal is less likely to degrade from atmospheric con-
ditions and ground clutter.
The screen also reports the average Horizontal Dilution

Of Precision (HDOP) and Position Dilution Of Precision
(PDOP) for all tracked satellites (2).
RAIL12DSP1425BA 6
When OmniSTAR RTX correction is in use, Global Or-

biting Navigation Satellite System (GLONASS) satellites

"PRECISION FARMING" APPLICATION: RADAR, DISTANCE, AND AREA

CALIBRATION
Introduction
• The radar and distance calibration procedures for generic vehicles
• The area calibration procedure for adjusting acreage discrepancies for all vehicle types
Radar and distance calibration

The values from radar or distance calibration are used
for calculating speed, area, and application rates. Radar
and/or distance calibration are required for the highest
working accuracy. The calibration synchronizes vehicle
equipment to the display.
Perform distance or radar calibration:

• At the beginning of each season
• When working in markedly different soil conditions
• When vehicle setup, implement or header setup, or tires
change
The closer that the working conditions are duplicated

when performing the calibration, the more reliable the
results will be. To get the best results from the procedure:
• The vehicle (with its implement or header) must be fully
set up and operational.
• Tires must be inflated to the proper pressure.
• Calibration must be performed in the field in soil and
conditions like those where work will be performed.
• The storage container(s) on the vehicle and/or imple-
ment – tank, hopper, basket, etc. – should be half full
to average the fill level.

Area calibration
Use area calibration whenever there is a mismatch be-
tween the known area for a field and the recorded area
for the same field. The calibration adjusts the recorded
area in hectares or acres, including all work data in the in-
dividual tasks, to reflect the known area. The calibration
value is only stored for tasks in the field for which area
calibration was performed. The calibration value is not
applied to any other fields or newly created tasks.
This calibration is available whenever the “Precision

Farming” application is used.

"E-NOTES" APPLICATION
Introduction
The “E-Notes” application is required by any vehicle that performs spraying, but the application is available for any
farming operation in which tracking field and weather conditions is important.
The “E-Notes” application does not require a GPS receiver, but the “Grower,” “Farm,” “Field,” “Task,” and “Crop” win-
dows must be populated before the “E-Notes” screens become active.
Any information on field and weather conditions automatically saves to the task on the memory stick. Weather infor-
mation is time and date stamped at the time of observation and can be updated as frequently as required as conditions
change.
To minimize the steps for the operator, the selections on all “E-notes” screens apply to all subsequent tasks until
they are changed. The following actions do NOT reset the windows to their default selections:
• Changing any component in the active data set – grower, farm, field, task, crop, etc.
• Powering the display OFF and then ON
The operator only visits the “E-notes” screens when any of the note windows must be changed.

• How to select soil type, soil moisture, soil condition, and crop residue for the current field on the “Field Notes” screen
• How to select sky condition, wind speed, wind direction, temperature, and humidity on the “Weather Notes” screen
• How to create notes and create, edit, or select spray tips for spraying operations on the “Xtra Notes” screen
On the “Home” screen, press the “Performance” icon to
access the “Performance” screens.

“Spray Tip”
The “Spray Tip” window is required by any vehicle per-
forming spraying to identify the tip model, spray angle, and
output flow rate for the current operation.
A spray tip, like a tag, acts as an electronic note for the

grower or operator to save another variable in crop pro-
duction and to filter production results for that variable.
The spray tip is linked to the task, and only one spray tip
may be assigned to a task. A maximum of 50 spray tips
can be created, and a unique ID is assigned to each spray
tip.
NOTE: Change the task first, and then change the spray
tip to ensure that data is retained for the previous and RCIL11DSP444BBG 4
subsequent spray tip.
When multiple vehicles are used, spray tips should be cre-

ated on one vehicle and then transferred to the other ve-
hicles via the memory stick. This ensures that spray tips
are identified by a uniform set of IDs across all vehicles.
Use the “Delete” screen to delete spray tips as required

(Home > Data Management > Delete).

DATA MANAGEMENT
Introduction
• How to import information from another vehicle
• How to filter the crop type information for all display and farming software
• How to delete information from display memory and the memory stick
• How to manage individual map items
With the IntelliView IV displays, information can be
shared:
• Between applications
• Between vehicles of the same type (tractor to tractor)
• Between vehicles of different types (combine to tractor
and vice versa)
• Between the display and the desktop software
The information exchange occurs by sharing the memory

stick between vehicles and/or the desktop software. To
accomplish this, the display and farming software needs
a way to differentiate one vehicle from another.
Each vehicle already has a unique identification number

– its product identification number (PIN) or serial number.
No other vehicle, whether it is a combine, a tractor, or a
sprayer, has the same PIN or serial number.
The display transparently identifies the information from

each vehicle using its PIN or serial number.
RCIL11DSP171BBG 1
The “Vehicle Name” window in the “Toolbox” screens or

on a “Run” screen allows the operator to supply a more
friendly, proxy name for the vehicle. This proxy vehicle
name, once created, is what appears in the display and
NOTE: The vehicle PIN or serial number is entered dur-
ing software installation on the display. On tractors, the
“Vehicle” screen (Home > Toolbox > Vehicle) is the only
location where the PIN displays. On combines, the “Com-
bine” screen (Home > Toolbox > Comb) is the only loca-
tion where the serial number displays. This feature is not
available on the generic vehicle type.
NOTE: The “Vehicle Name” window can be placed on any
“Run” screen for operator convenience.
Any information the grower wants to share with a vehicle is

exchanged by inserting the memory stick from one vehicle
into the display on the other vehicle.
4-1
4 - OPERATION
Automatic sharing
Some information is shared automatically and does not
need to be imported.
The grower-farm-field structure can be shared simply by

inserting the memory stick into the display when it is un-
powered and then powering the display ON. For exam-
ple, Vehicle A has the current grower-farm-field structure
for your agri-business on its memory stick; Vehicle B is
new and does not. If the memory stick from Vehicle A
is inserted into the display in Vehicle B, the display rec-
ognizes new information it does not have and loads the
information into display memory.
NOTE: Information that is in display memory is saved
when the vehicle is turned OFF.
When the memory stick for Vehicle B is reinserted into

the display and the display is powered ON, it records the
grower-farm-field structure from memory to its own mem-
ory stick.
RCIL11DSP171BBG 2
The data types that are automatically shared between

vehicles and/or the desktop computer are:
• Grower
• Farm
• Field
• Operator
• Product
• Tag
• Mark
• Container
• Boundary
• Obstacle
• Swath line (from the “Autoguidance” application)
NOTE: This is the recommended method for sharing
these data types since the IDs for the data remains iden-
tical across vehicles. This greatly simplifies processing
data with the desktop software.
Vehicle-specific information
Some information is never shared between vehicles.
Vehicle-specific calibrations are never shared. For
example:
• Steering calibrations reflect the condition of the steering
pump and a steering sensor.
• Distance or slip calibrations reflect the condition of a
vehicle’s tires.
Any calibration that reflects the performance properties

specific to one vehicle cannot be shared.

Task
Task is the data type in which most logged data and GPS
data is stored. Deleting a task removes all summary data
and logged data for the task.
Task deletion is the recommended method:

• For recovering memory stick space for the current op-
eration – planting, spraying, harvesting – when you no
longer need to retain the summary data for the tasks
• For recovering memory stick space from a previous op-
eration which has been archived: for example, tasks
used for planting which still reside on the memory stick
during harvest season
• For beginning a new season’s work while retaining the RCIL11DSP325BBG 20

The task data type uses the most windows, but the same
processes as the other data types.
To delete all tasks from display memory and the memory

MEMORY STICK MANAGEMENT
Introduction
The memory stick contains:
• All of the data types discussed in this chapter for your
operation: grower, farm, field, task, crop type, tag, work
condition, operator, implement, sequence, obstacle,
boundary, layout, swath, and GPS data
• All of the vehicle-specific information: calibration and
vehicle setup
• All of the farming application-specific data: yield, cov-
erage, “as applied,” prescription, etc.
This information is organized in a folder on the mem-

ory stick with a .cn1 extension. The folder name will be RAIL12DSP1042AA 1
similar to 130831H7.cn1 where the first six numerals are
the date stamp for the folder in this format: yymmdd.
This folder name is automatically updated (date and time
stamped) each time the display is powered ON. This cre-
ates a chronological record for all recorded data and pre-
vents files from sharing the same name.
To maintain the integrity of the saved information:
• Never put two .cn1 folders on the same memory stick.
• Never change the name or extension for any folder.
• Never change the location of any folder or file.
• Never delete the index.vy1 file until the information has
been archived. This file is required to launch the archive
process using the desktop software.

Multiple vehicle practices

If you have more than one vehicle of the same type (trac-
tor, combine, etc.) with an IntelliView IV display, label
each memory stick with the product identification number
(PIN) or serial number of the vehicle. Always match the
memory stick to the vehicle when it is used.
1. Use a single vehicle or the desktop software to create

any of these data types:
• grower
• farm
• field
• tags
• operator
• product
• field mark
• boundary
• obstacle
RCIL11DSP171BBG 1
• swath
If required, transfer the memory stick from the desktop

computer to a vehicle.
2. Create any “Run” screen layouts with a single vehicle.

On tractors, create implements and sequences. On
combines, perform crop setup.
3. Once setup is complete on the memory stick, power
OFF the display and remove the device from the vehi-
cle.
4. Install the memory stick from the first vehicle in the
next vehicle.
5. Power ON the display to automatically share the
grower/farm/field, etc. from the device with the dis-
play.
6. Use the “Import” screen (Home > Data Management >
Import) to add the other data types: crop setup, “Run”
screen layouts, implements, work conditions, etc.
NOTE: When a field is created, a new task is automatically
created. Delete these tasks from the memory stick for the
first vehicle before sharing the grower/farm/field informa-
tion with other vehicles. These tasks cannot be used by
the second vehicle. They appear in italics on option lists
and cannot be selected.
7. Repeat steps 3-6 for each additional vehicle.
8. After sharing the memory stick with each vehicle,
power ON the display with the device that is matched
to that vehicle (not the first vehicle). Verify that all of
the information has successfully transferred.
9. At the end of the day, archive the information from the
memory stick for each vehicle to your desktop com-
puter.
4-36
4 - OPERATION
Rotating memory stick practices

In some operations, growers prefer to rotate two or more
memory sticks between the vehicle and the desktop com-
puter. In this situation, the memory stick should be erased
after its information has been archived and then returned
to the vehicle without a .cn1 folder.
This causes the display to create a new .cn1 folder from

display memory, guaranteeing that the most recent farm-
ing data—planting, spraying, harvesting—is used.
Always start a new task when you swap memory sticks in

this manner. GPS data is only written to the memory stick.
Rotating memory sticks retains the summary records be-
tween memory sticks, but not the GPS data. Start a new RAIL12DSP1042AA 1
task to prevent GPS data from overlapping for the same

task between two memory sticks.

6 - "PRINTER" APPLICATION
Introduction
Although distributed largely with software for combines, the “Printer” application is available for any farming operation
where capturing the content of the reporting windows on a screen is beneficial to an operator. The software is primarily
intended to capture the content of “Toolbox,” “Performance,” and “Diagnostics” screens.
The content of the windows is sent to a connected printer
or to a file on the memory stick. In both cases, the to-
tal screen is not printed. A simple text-only page or file
records the text content of the printable windows on the
selected screen.
The file output for the “GPS Setup” screen is shown as

an example. The screen name (1) is the first item on
the page. The windows with printable content are then
shown, separated by double line spaces. In each win-
dow group, the window name is the first line (2), and the
window setting or value (3) is the second line. The ap-
propriate unit of measurement, where applicable, is also
shown.
Printing – whether to a page or a file – is performed on

RCPH11DSP023BBG 1
a screen by screen basis. Some screens and windows
cannot be printed. Messages guide the operator:
• If a screen contains printable content, a confirming
message displays.
• If a screen contains no printable content, a different in-
formational message displays.
NOTE: The left-hand area is never printable.

ory stick at the level of the “cn1” folder (the highest direc-
tory level). The files are named with a date and time stamp
in this manner: Screen Name yyyymmdd-hhmmss.txt.
Use your desktop or laptop computer with any text editor

to read these files. Double-click the .txt file to open it in
the default text editing software. These .txt files cannot

Connect to a printer
The display is capable of printing screen contents to a
portable, thermal dot matrix printer that uses paper rolls.
Printers that are designed to be powered by the vehicle
battery or by a portable battery pack simplify installation
and are ideal.
NOTE: The A630, A631, and A632 series printers from
Axiohm are shown in these examples. Visit www.ax-
iohm.biz for more information.
RCPH11DSP024BBG 1
Large combines use a unique implementation for sup-

porting a printer. The Axiohm A630 printer is powered
and connected to the RS232 port via the diagnostic con-
nector on the right hand control module (1). Kit 84095875
includes the printer (2), printer cable (3), and mount-
ing hardware (4) for this implementation. This kit, with
supporting software, allows the display to communicate
directly with the printer via the Controller Area Network
(CAN).
RCPH11DSP025BBG 2
Other vehicles require a different implementation. An

adapter harness is required to connect the serial (RS-232)
port on the IntelliView IV display to the printer. The
adapter harness separates ports A and B on the main
connection to the display. For display-ready vehicles (an
existing display harness connector is in the cab), use
adapter harness 87732647. For all other vehicles, use
adapter harness 87735690.
With this harness installed, Com-A (communication port

A) is the RS-232 port that is integrated into the main con-
nector harness on the back of the display—the 26-pin con-
nector.
RCIL11DSP526BBG 3
6-5
The types of ports that are available – parallel, RS232,

USB – and cables that are available for connecting a
printer to the display will vary with the printer.
A 9-pin (DB9) RS232 female connector is required to con-

nect the printer to the display at the display port. The
standard or optional cables for the printer may or may not
support this connector. Acquire any adapters needed – a
25-pin to 9-pin RS232, a USB to 9-pin RS232, etc. – from
a local electronics supplier.
