Master data management
 
We define master data as data that is on the SD card and is needed to specify tasks more precisely. Depending on the operating mode you are using, you can manage different master data.
To access the master data on the SD card:
▪
From the FMIS - You can save the master data from the FMIS to the USB memory device. When you insert the USB memory device into the terminal, the data is automatically transferred to the SD card.
▪
You can create the master data on the terminal or import it from a shape file and save it to the SD card. The disadvantage of this method is that the data cannot be read out with every external program. You cannot delete it either.
 
 
 
NOTICE
Data loss
1.
Create the master data only at one spot: either in the FMIS or on the terminal.
2.
Do not change the method.
 
 
 
NOTICE
Non-compatible FMIS
Not every FMIS is capable of importing modified master data.
1.
Before starting to change or create master data, check whether you can import your FMIS tasks with changed data. Otherwise, the created master data cannot be imported back into the terminal after exporting to the USB memory device.
 
 
You do not have to maintain the master data in all of the categories. The selection depends on the farm size and on the intended use.
