Exporting implement settings for the FMIS
 
Before you can plan with tasks with the FMIS for ISOBUS job computers, the FMIS has to know the current implement description. This includes, for example: Geometry of the implement, ID number, working width, holding capacity.
 
 
To deliver this data to the FMIS, you need to create a blank task on the terminal. ISOBUS-TC writes the complete implement description in the taskdata.xml with the task. Then you have to open this task in the FMIS.
 
 
 
When to perform?
 
 
 
You must perform this step in the following instances:
Before you plan the first task.
 
 
If you change implement parameters in the job computer. This can include: Working width, geometry or number of nozzles. When the application identifies that the implement description in the task differs from that in the job computer, it will not allow the task to start.
 
 
 
Mode of operation
 
 
 
In this step, all parameters stored in the job computer are saved in an XML file. These data is provided with a unique ID number.
 
 
You have to repeat this step once more for each ISOBUS-capable implement.
 
 
NOTICE
If you are planing a task for an implement, you must ensure that the properties of the implement in the FMIS match with the configuration of the implement in the ISOBUS job computer. If parameters such as the working width, geometry or number of hoppers do not match, the work data will be assigned to a new implement created by the ISOBUS-TC. You can still continue to work, but you will have to correct the counters later in the FMIS.
1.
If you use an implement with different working widths or geometries, you create an individual implement profile in the FMIS for each configuration.
 
 
 
Procedure
 
 
 
þ
You have connected the terminal to the job computer of the implement that you wish to add to the master data.
þ
You have configured the job computer.
1.
Insert an empty USB memory device into the terminal.
2.
Create the “taskdata” folder.
3.
Create a new task. You do not need to enter any task data for this task.
4.
Start the task.
5.
Tap one of the additional windows.
The ISOBUS-TC application appears in the additional window.
6.
Wait until counters also appear in the window.
7.
Tap the counters.
The ISOBUS-TC application appears in the main window.
8.
 Auftrag_Stop - Terminate the task.
9.
 Back - Exit the screen.
10.
 Back - Exit the screen.
11.
 DisconnectUSB - Log out the USB memory device.
12.
You have transferred the implement parameters to the USB memory device. The data is in the taskdata.xml file.
13.
Read the task or the taskdata.xml file into your FMIS.
