Automatic guidance system dedicated to agriculture, consisting of G7 Farmnavigator + C-BOX + MDU + ECU + DGPS.

What is the Farmnavigator automatic guidance system (Autosteering System)? This is a system for assisted steering, which helps follow the guidance lines set on the G7 Farmnavigator navigator with great precision.

The benefits of automatic guidance

With this system the operator can focus on controlling the implement without having to worry about operating the steering wheel as well, improving work quality and yield. Very useful in conditions of poor visibility, in case of fog or dusty environments. Additionally, the system allows the full width of the implement to be used, and maximizes the cultivated area by reducing overlaps. The result is a saving of time (speeding up the steering maneuver in end-of-field areas), and money: fuel is saved, but also seeds and fertilizers. This system allows for a qualitative and quantitative improvement of all harvest phases and therefore an increase in return on investment.

To resume manual steering of the vehicle, simply grip the steering wheel firmly to disengage the automatic steering; it can be engaged just as easily by touching the corresponding icon on the Farmnavigator screen.

The system includes:

  • Farmnavigator C-Box the connection box
  • Smart DGPS Hemisphere A 101 antenna
  • Farmnavigator ECU receives GPS data corrected by the external antenna and converts G7 Farmnavigator information into actual steering commands
  • G7 Farmnavigator the system display
  • Farmnavigator MDU the Mechanical Guidance Module

How to install the system

G7 Famnavigator connects to the C-Box, and through this to the antenna and ECU via Ethernet cable. The antenna provided connects to the ECU.

Configuring the ECU is simple: just follow step by step the procedure on the G7 Farmnavigator screen.

Characteristics of the individual system components:

MDU: easy to install module

The MDU module is installed without needing to remove the steering wheel thanks to the patented universal ring. It is sufficient to attach and detach the MDU module to move it to another vehicle.

The system does not take up the space available for the legs, and allows easy use of manual steering.

• Suitable for sustained traction forces for the most demanding vehicles.

• Responds very quickly to keep the vehicle in line

• Step-by-step precision with WAAS / EGNOS

Farmnavigator ECU: compact and versatile steering control

Houses the compass Gyroscopes and accelerometers used to detect the vehicle's orientation and movements. Receives GPS data corrected by the external antenna and converts G7 Farmnavigator information into actual steering commands.

• Compatible with any GNSS antenna. Supports GPS, Glonass, Galileo and Beidou constellations.

• Centimeter-level precision when used with RTK antennas

• Supports various vehicle interfaces: mechanical, IS/CAN, hydraulic and steer ready.

• Customized installation kits are available for over 750 models of agricultural vehicles (tractors, combines, seeders, sprayers).

• 9-axis inertial sensors for better terrain compensation and greater precision

• Programming and assistance via WiFi

• Automatic installation and calibration

Combine the Farmnavigator Guidance system with automatic section control

Automatic section control is obtained by connecting G7 Farmnavigator to a compatible controller such as the Farmscan UniPod, via Ethernet cable. G7 Farmnavigator calculates the exact area treated and based on the position detected by GPS activates or deactivates the sections of the nozzle bar to avoid overlap on an area already treated and risk damaging the harvest.

G7 Farmnavigator is compatible with the following controllers for spray bars and sprayers:

• MC Elettronica VT 5.7"

• Caffini CB9

• Geoline Geosystem 260

• Farmscan Unipod
