Hi there.
So I have a new lexion combine with telematics basic. I’d like to set up field and yield data using gatekeeper and pop it onto a stick and upload the preselected fields. Then use cebis to select each field as we go and download the data to gatekeeper afterwards.
What module do I need in gatekeeper?
I have boundary data in gatekeeper as well as boundary and A-B line data from my Topcon screen on the sprayer. How do I utilize this to import the a b lines to the S7 screen for the...

As in the title,
Just specking up a new direct drill, was wondering if should not include markers in the options, and use the saving towards a gps set for the tractor,.
So I will need something to provide guidance and probably connect to a steering wheel motor etc.

Any recommendations and idea on cost.

Anyone tried the eFarmer FieldBEE

Hi I farm approximately 800 acres of mainly cereals in County Durham and I currently use a MF7720 with full autosteer to drill with only using EGNOS at the moment, which is not good enough for the job.

So I am looking at either upgrading my Autoguide 3000 system to RTK for drilling, which I believe will cost £4.5k for the two snap ins required and then between £750 to £1000 to subscribe to the signal via the mobile phone network as the only base station nearby is a Trimble one and correctly...

I am looking for a couple of folks to trial our sensors & online dashboard. This is a brand new system so we are looking for someone who likes to test the latest tech and doesn't mind learning to use a system with some rough edges.
  • The system is designed for monitoring potatoes and other irrigated crops
  • We provide a suite of sensors -> soil sensors, cameras and weather station
  • Online portal displays data for each crop, it will show over-watering, pests, etc.

AG 3000 repair/replacement

I've got an AG3000 receiver that has stopped seeing satellites after an update. This is beyond the local dealer’s repair capabilities, they have kindly loaned me another to keep me going. Just looking for opinions on the best way forward. The receiver runs a steer ready isobus MF6616 through a data 4 screen. I would like a new hardware solution to be transferable to an as yet non-steer ready, isobus MF 6718S with a field star 5 screen.

Deere Combine (W/T) GPS Offsets

Hi Guys,

Just wondering if anyone off hand knew the combine and / or platform offsets for the 2012-2015 (new shape cab) series combines?

Reason I ask is the combine doesn't have the 2630 on the armrest, so am using my own 2600 display externally, but doesn't seem to be any way to extract the offset information out the command center unless I'm being blind?

Ideally someone with a hillmaster model for exact measurements? Failing that will have to get the tape measure out! Amazed these...

After locking the steering solid whilst on the road yesterday thought I should investigate. Bottom bearing race completely worn away, been told parts not available, local bearing suppliers can’t help so after just 5 seasons looks like it’s destined for the scrap bin. Feeling a little disappointed after such a short service life.

Looking to run up an Amazone UF 1501 sprayer utilising the Fendt Vario terminal for full control and operation of the sprayer and mapping.
So far everything on the isobus side has loaded correctly and we are able to assign function controls to the Fendt joystick.
Before we start ,will we need to create a trigger value to initiate map coverage or will turning the sprayer on and off have the desired effect?
Dealer has no idea and really there is no relevant trigger value in the settings that...

Are John Deere Guidance systems worth the premium?

I have been operating one of the earlier John Deere light bars and domes for probably over 10 years, which has been adequate for my needs of spraying, top dressing and setting up land work for parallel work.

My dome stopped working and my local John Deere supplied me their spare one to use. I’ve found my dome can’t be repaired so am looking at the next step.

I could just get a new dome but have a sneaky suspicion that it will come in at more than a basic screen based GPS and I would be...

Hi, I have developed my own RTK GPS based on a linux platform.
The video below give you an overview of the components used.



I am a dairy farmer who learned how to computer code and build electronics, i think this had made my software quite unique. I have been using this for 4 years now, and am at a point where the product is reliable. I plan to produce some additional units for testing over the next few months.

I am currently adding autosteer (~£200)....

EZGuide 250 Problem

I have a 250 that worked good. Powered it up and it would not connect to satellites. It says connected to one, but the time is wrong, reading a time in the pacific ocean. Noted a crack in the antenna, so I ordered a patch antenna and it is doing the same thing. Downloaded and install the 3.12 firm ware and still got the same thing.
Suggestions??
