  4. Confirm the new dashboard display. The chosen options will appear on the dashboard.
GPS and correction source

The following information is displayed in the GPS panel:

  • System readiness (satellite icon) and the number of satellite signals available
  • Correction quality and position accuracy
  • The correction source in use (DGPS, PPS, RTK, RTK Fliat, SBAS, OmniSTAR VBS, OmniSTAR XP, OmniSTAR HP, OmniSTAR G2, Invalid, Unknown, Estimated, GPS, Manual Input).

Accuracy to within 2 cm is high level accuracy.

Note: if the correction source is set to Autonomous, the dashboard displays ‘GPS’.

Satellite icon

A green satellite icon indicates that the GPS signal and the correction source are converged and based on HDOP. Other colours indicate that information is not available:

Grey: No correction source and signal

Red: Poor accuracy

Yellow: Average accuracy

Green: Good accuracy

Note: If the option AUTOMATIC was chosen during GPS configuration, the colours may change progressively as different correction sources are detected. If a specific source was selected during GPS configuration, then the system will attempt to detect the selected system.

Correction icon

Green: converging correction source for autosteer function (position accuracy on autosteer status panel indicated in green).

Yellow: Correction source received but not accurate enough to engage autosteer function. Check differential correction and position accuracy on autosteer status panel.

Red: Correction source received different from configuration.

Grey: No correction source received.

Guidance information

The guidance information panels may be configured to display one or two of the following six possible options: cross track error, speed, heading, swath, covered area or area remaining.

  • Cross track error: Displays the distance of the vehicle from the nearest wayline.
  • Worked area: Displays total coverage area per arm (including overlap).
  • Area remaining: Remaining area in which coverage has not been applied within non-excluded boundaries of current job.
