Chapter 1 - System overview The Matrix Pro allows the management of multiple connected modules plus GPS mapping, Guidance, Assisted/Auto Steering, BoomPilotÂź, and data collection in a single console using CAN bus technology. This replaces multiple consoles in the cab with one robust system.
SYSTEM COMPONENTS Matrix Pro 570G Console The Matrix Pro 570G is designed to provide years of service under typical agricultural operating conditions. A tight fitting enclosure, combined with rubber covers for all connectors mean that typical dusty environments will not cause operational problems. While occasional splashing of water will not damage the unit, the Matrix Pro 570G is not designed for direct exposure to rain. Take care not to operate the Matrix Pro in wet conditions.
Matrix Pro 840G Console The Matrix Pro 840G is designed to provide years of service under typical agricultural operating conditions. A tight fitting enclosure, combined with rubber covers for all connectors mean that typical dusty environments will not cause operational problems. While occasional splashing of water will not damage the unit, the Matrix Pro 840G is not designed for direct exposure to rain. Take care not to operate the Matrix Pro in wet conditions.
Optional Accessories Steering Control Module Fieldware Link The Steering Control Module performs assisted/auto steering on straight and contour paths. The Matrix Pro system can link with the FieldPilot or UniPilot system to take precise control of the vehicle position. The operator manages the assisted/automatic steering system with the Matrix Pro â a benefit of a single, in-cab console. Catalogue clients, farms, fields and jobs with Fieldware Link to take full advantage of the Matrix Pro console.
Tilt Gyro Module Combined with software built into the Matrix Pro console, the Section Driver Module (SDM) makes BoomPilot (automatic boom section control) possible. The SDM should be combined with the appropriate cable to interface with your BoomPilot system, spray controller and/or spraying machine for quick and easy installation.
Configurations The following diagrams are reflective of typical Matrix Pro configurations. Due to the variety of possible configurations, these should be used for reference purposes only.

Chapter 7 â GUIDANCE The Matrix Pro allows product application and vehicle guidance to be performed simultaneously. Once Unit Setup is complete, guidance can begin. Five guidance modes allow the operator to optimize the field work: Straight AB , Curved AB , Circle Pivot Last Pass and NextRow . Additional optimization can be accomplished with Boundary Application , Curved Lookahead Return to Point guidance and RealView Guidance Over Video . Three guidance screens assist in keeping the user informed.

Status Bar The Status Bar provides information on GPS Status, Guidance Mode, Boundary Area, Assisted/Auto Steering Engagement and Implement Control Status. Figure 7-2: Status Bar -13 8.9 < 7.
Status/Information Screens GPS Status GPS Status displays information regarding data rates, number of satellites in view, and satellite quality and ID. See GPS section in Setup Chapter of this manual for more information. 1.

Press BOUNDED AREA icon to view data including: âWorking Area â the total area of the external boundary excluding the internal bounded areas âField Area â the total area of the external boundary âInternal Area â the area excluded from the active area (or the total area of the internal bounded areas) Figure 7-6: Bounded Area Status -13 Mark A 7.2 km/h -13 Mark A 7.2 km/h Working Area: 12.
Navigation Screens Matrix Pro guidance and navigation can be accessed from the Vehicle View screen, Field View screen or RealView screen.
Vehicle View Vehicle View creates a computer-generated image of the vehicle position displayed in the application area. From this screen all setup and navigation options can be accessed via the icons in the bottom and right side of the screen. Figure 7-10: Vehicle View Guidance Bar Mark A -13 7.
Field View Field View creates a computer-generated image of the vehicle position and application area from an aerial perspective. From this screen one can access options for boundary areas and a marked point or enter World View and Pan modes. Figure 7-12: Field View Guidance Bar Mark A -13 Vehicle Representation 7.
RealView Guidance RealView Guidance allows live video input to be displayed instead of a computer-generated image. If a Video Selection Module (VSM) is installed on the system, two video options are available: âą One Camera View â one of up to eight camera inputs can be selected to change the view of the video input. âą Split Camera View â one of two sets of four camera inputs (A/B/C/D or E/F/G/H) can be selected to divide the screen into four separate video feeds.

Guidelines Curved Lookahead indicates what direction the vehicle will take when steering in any given direction. AB guidelines, Azimuth guidelines, next pass guidelines and NextRow guidelines are each available depending on the current guidance mode. Up to 25 established guidelines are stored in the console per job. Switching from one guidance mode to another will change the current available guidelines. Multiple guidelines can be created in each guidance mode.
