Applications on the terminal
The terminal is delivered with a range of installed application (apps). Most of these can be used immediately. Even the non-activated applications can generally be tested for 50 hours. If a specific application works well for you, a license can be ordered from Müller-Elektronik to activate the full version of the application.
Full versions
The full versions of the following applications are installed on the terminal:
- ▪
- ISOBUS interface (ISOBUS-UT)
- The terminal enables you to operate ISOBUS job computers which are ISO 11783 compliant. The user interfaces for operating a job computer are shown on the terminal screen if this is connected to the ISOBUS connector of the vehicle.
- The ISOBUS interface has no icon of its own. The icon for the connected job computer will always be displayed in the selection menu.
- Service application.- The Service application allows you to:
- –
- Configure the terminal.
- –
- Enable and disable other applications.
- –
- Enter license activation codes.
- –
- Enable drivers for connected devices.
- –
- Configuration of the GPS settings
- ISOBUS-TC application (ISOBUS task controller)- The ISOBUS-TC application serves as an interface between the terminal applications (SECTION-Control, TECU, VECU) and ISOBUS devices (job computers, crop protection sensors). Moreover, the app enables data transfer between the terminal and electronic Farm Management Information Systems.
- The scope of functions depends on the activated licenses and the configuration.
- More about this in section: ISOBUS-TC application
- Tractor-ECU application- The Tractor-ECU application is used to record all settings around the tractor.
- Here, you can e.g.:
- –
- Enter the position of the GPS receiver.
- –
- Set the GPS receiver as the speed signal source.
- –
- Select which sensor signals are received by the terminal.
- –
- View the speed and PTO shaft rotational speed on the screen.
- More about this in section: Tractor-ECU application
- Virtual ECU application- The Virtual ECU application is a central hub where virtual job computers can be created for machines and devices that do not communicate through ISOBUS.
- The Virtual ECU enables the use of apps such as TRACK-Leader, ISOBUS-TC and SECTION-Control with non-ISO machines.
- More about this in section: Virtual ECU application
FILE-Server application- This application is used to define a storage location on the terminal. This storage location can be used by ISOBUS job computers that support the FILE-Server functionality. The options for use depend on the ISOBUS job computer.
- Camera- The Camera application displays on the screen the image from the camera which is connected to the terminal.
Test versions
You can use the test versions of the following applications:
- TRACK-Leader application.- The TRACK-Leader application allows you to work the field on exact parallel tracks.
- The app contains several modules for which a license can also be activated:
- –
- SECTION-Control: Automatic section control in order to minimize overlaps.
- –
- TRACK-Leader AUTO: Automatic vehicle steering on the field.
- –
- TRACK-Leader AUTO CLAAS: Automatic vehicle steering on the field for CLAAS tractors.
- –
- TRACK-Leader TOP: Automatic vehicle steering on the field.
- –
- TRAMLINE-Management: Tramline control using the current GPS position.
- ▪
- ASD protocol – The license enables communication between the terminal and a serially connected on-board integrated display/controller. The terminal knows the position of the machine on the field (GPS) and can transmit the target application rate of a product (from the prescription map) or the section status to the on-board integrated display/controller. In this way, you can use the SECTION-Control app for section control, among other things.
- More about this in section: Connecting the on-board integrated display/controller to the terminal
- ▪
- MULTI-Control – This license extends the functionality of ISOBUS-TC. It enables the assignment of prescription maps to individual metering units on a machine.
- ▪
- ME ODI – This license activates the ME ODI application. It is used to connect the terminal with the Internet via Ethernet or Bluetooth.
Optional software
Optionally you can activate the following software:
- FIELD-Nav application- FIELD-Nav – Road navigation for agricultural purposes. The map material can be edited with the corresponding PC software FIELD-Nav Desktop. All field tracks, small bridges and other restrictions can then be integrated in the map material and be considered when mapping the route.
- You will find the operating instructions on the Müller-Elektronik website.
- Agricon plugin- Enables coupling with crop protection sensors (Yara-N, P3US, P3ALS etc.) manufactured by Agricon.
