INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on selecting the CenterLine
We – your supplier – feel certain that you will quickly learn to use it and within a
short time get the full benefit of this modern technology.
Please read this operator manual:
Sit in the tractor seat with the engine switched off!
Read the “Introduction to guidance” and look at the drawings on pages 10 & 11.
Get to know the 6 remote control buttons and their functions.
Learn to navigate through the menus.
Read the explanations for each menu item that you don’t understand carefully.
Only now, if you feel at home with the CenterLine, should you start the

GENERAL OPERATION
The CenterLine system consists of three main components; a DGPS receiver, the
lightbar and a wireless remote control. All of the menus for operation and encoding
the CenterLine are shown on the lightbar and are selected by using the wireless
remote control. Settings for the DGPS receiver depend on the type of receiver
used; please refer to the documentation supplied with the DGPS receiver.
A description of the wireless remote control and the lightbar follows:
THE WIRELESS REMOTE
As mentioned before CenterLine is operated via the wireless remote and a

Key Description
UP

These keys are used to page through the menus, sub-menus
and the various settings that are available in the menus.
RETURN TO POINT KEY (POS. 2)
Key Description
This key is used to mark a position in the field and then to later
return to the marked position.
The return to point function is typically used if work in the field is
stopped and the point at which work stopped is to be found
when work commences again.
A description of this function can be seen on page 15.
BRIGHTNESS + & - KEYS (POS. 4)
Keys Description
Repeatedly pressing the brightness + key will increase the
brightness of the lightbar. Likewise repeatedly pressing the
brightness – key will decrease the brightness of the lightbar.
Different light conditions, i.e. bright sunlight or night work can be
compensated for with this function.
MENU/ESCAPE KEY (POS. 5)
Key Description
MENU
ESC
This key is used to leave a menu item.
Each press of this key pages one step back in the menu
structure.
If the key is pressed when encoding, the specific setting will not
be saved.
ENTER KEY (POS. 6)
Key Description
The enter key is used to open a menu plus to select and accept
an encodement.

AN INTRODUCTION TO PARALLEL SWATHING
Parallel swathing can be carried out in three different ways; driving around the
headland and parallel to a straight line or a curved line. Typically, work will start by
driving around the headland 2 or 3 times and thereafter “side to side” (as with
tramlines).
Whilst driving around the headland it is possible to create a reference line from
which the remainder of the field can be driven parallel to. This reference line is
created by marking 2 points, point A and point B. The shortest possible distance
between 2 points is a straight line and this straight line is the reference line that is
driven parallel to for straight guidance(not the headland).
The reference line can be created, as mentioned before, whilst working the
headland, but also at any other time whilst driving. Once the reference line is
marked, it is possible to drive parallel to this line anywhere in the field.

STRAIGHT GUIDANCE
Straight guidance is simply driving in a straight line parallel to the reference line
created with points A & B. Once the reference line has been created it is possible
to drive parallel to the left and/or the right of the line and before and/or after the
initial reference points (A & B), the following diagram illustrates this:
The solid line represents the reference line
created with points A & B.
The dashed line shows that parallel lines are
automatically created on the left- and right-
hand side plus in front of and behind the
reference line.
This means that parallel guidance is possible
outside the points A and B
CURVED GUIDANCE
Curved guidance is driving parallel to a curved line in a similar fashion to straight
guidance. Parallel guidance is possible to the left and/or right of the reference line
but not before or after the initial reference points. The following diagram illustrates
this:
The solid line represents the initial
reference line created with points A & B.
The dashed lines show that parallel lines
are automatically created in front of the
initial reference line.
The dashed lines also show that parallel
lines are not created in to the side of the
initial reference points
This means that curved guidance is not
possible outside of the points A and B
HEADLAND GUIDANCE
Headland guidance is driving parallel around the headland of the field. Once the
headland has been completed it is possible to drive to the left and/or to the right of
the initial bout. A reference line (A & B) for straight or curved guidance can be
created whilst in headland mode.
A detailed example of headland guidance can be seen on page 11.

A WORKING EXAMPLE
The following example shows that the headland is driven twice. Two reference
marks are made to create the straight reference line that the rest of the field is to
be driven parallel to:
