Configure Harnessing

To configure your harnessing, press the Harnessing button, then Add Bus Devices (even if you're not adding, but only re-configuring existing devices). You should then see a popup, where you can select the main device you want to add. For now, DBM is the only option, so select that.

On the next page, you will see three columns:

• a list of four buses that you can switch between (CAN A, CAN B, CAN C, and CAN D)
• a list of the modules on the currently selected bus
• a total count of each type of module on the currently selected bus

To add hardware to the current bus, press the Add button in the middle table, and select the hardware type. Then you will be asked to say how many of that module you want to add in one group before the next module type.

If you make a mistake, you can either delete all of the modules on the bus, or you can just delete them one by one, starting with the last one added. (You cannot delete from the middle. To accomplish that you must delete all the way back from the end to that module, then re-add the later ones.)

Once you've got all modules added, check your work to make sure that both of the following are correct:

• the total numbers on the right
• the order of modules in the middle.

If they are, tap Continue at the bottom of the screen, and assign each module to a row. Make sure that for each bus on the left, you select it and then scroll and click through each module on that bus. When you are finished, no modules should remain with a location of "None."

Assign Rows to Cab Control Module Section Switches

Your CCM can be used to swath on and off at the flip of a switch. To assign specific rows to each section switch, tap the Cab Control Module button on the Implement system setup menu, then either:

• Use the left and right handles to drag the slider so that each section corresponds to the right rows,
• Or use the Left and Right input boxes to assign percentages to those two sections, so that each one controls that percent of the rows, counting from the end.

Configure Outer Row Coverage

Outer Row Coverage settings simplify what earlier 20|20 software called "Swath Sections."

Sometimes you don’t want the edges of your implement to stop applying exactly when they hit previous coverage. Under some circumstances, that can lead to underplanting, especially near obstacles like trees. When that happens, you can adjust the Outer Row Coverage setting on the Implement system setup page.

What this setting does is change how sensitive the outside rows are to overlap with previous coverage:

• If you set it to Single (the suggested setting), the outside row will stop planting as usual when it crosses into previous coverage.
• If you set it to 1/2 Row Width, the outside row will stop planting when it's an extra half row deep into previous coverage.
• If you set it to Dual Ends, the outside row won’t stop applying if it crosses into previous coverage. Instead, it’ll wait until the next row crosses into coverage, then both rows will shut off at once.

Add Implement Hardware

Use the Add Hardware button to add hardware like Lift Switches, Gyros, and Motion Sensors to the implement. Once you've selected the correct hardware type, you'll be walked through a setup process. See below, under user-created systems, for more details.

Configure General System Settings

There are three settings that every user-created system has:

1. Active Rows are the rows that the system should be turned on for (this value is superseded by the Equipment menu setting, which will turn off all systems on the inactive rows)
2. Default Rate is the fallback rate the 20|20 will use when it exits the area covered by any active prescriptions.
3. Control Sections allow you to group rows so that they can be controlled to up to four different rates independently.

Configure System Settings Specific to Product Application

Systems that can apply product, like liquid, granular, and seeding systems, have a few additional settings:

• Coverage Overlap lets you leave an extra buffer between previous coverage and the current application, which can be sometimes make harvesting easier by leaving a gap between the end of your pass and your headlands. (In prior software versions, this was called "Row Offset")
• Coverage Pattern tells the 20|20 how to decide whether the swath section has entered a headland. If the headland isn’t perpendicular to your pass, then one row in the section will enter the headland before the other. Should the 20|20 wait until all rows in the section get to the headland to stop planting (Over-Plant in some rows)? Should it stop as soon as any row hits the headland (Under-Plant in some rows)? Or should it try to split the difference (50%-50%).
• Start/Stop Offset compensate for discrepancies if a module stops applying at the wrong time before reaching previous coverage or starts at the wrong time after leaving it. You can adjust the offset so that those line up precisely with the expected start/stop points.
• Delivery Offset tells the 20|20 where precisely the product will be hitting the field relative to the seed exit.
• CCM Autoload enables or disables the meter auto-load functionality of the CCM for the system.

Add Hardware

To add hardware to a system, simply tap the Add Hardware button and select the appropriate module type.

Depending on the type of module you're adding, you will be walked through a series of steps to do one or more of the following:

1. Tell the 20|20 where the modules are physically located ("Module Locations"). You can think of this, for example, as asking which SRM has the module installed.

2. Tell the 20|20 which CAN bus connections each module location uses ("Module Connections"). This makes it possible to install multiple modules on a single SRM, for example.

   If you want every location to use the same connection types, use the Apply All button after selecting the first example. You won't notice any visible changes, but the selection will transfer to all other locations.

3. Assign rows for the 20|20 to control based off of the module at each location ("Module Settings").

   You may see a row-by-row or other shortcut option here that will let you more quickly configure a typical setup. Otherwise, you have to go through each module location on the left to assign rows manually.

4. Configure general settings for each module individually ("Module Settings"). Make sure you scroll to see all available options.

   You have to set up each module location individually by clicking through them on the left. Changes made to one will not affect others.

After you've finished, you can always return to these settings by clicking on the button with the hardware name on the system setup page.

Once you've got the system set up, make sure to check the Diagnose page to ensure that everything is green, then head over to Calibrations to perform any necessary procedures there.

Remove Hardware

To remove hardware, simply click on the appropriate hardware button, then tell the 20|20 that it doesn't exist at any location by unselecting all previously active locations. Then press Done.
