Configure Lightbar

Note:  Lightbar configuration will only be available on CR12®+ if an external lightbar is detected.

For lightbar brightness settings, see Adjust Display Settings.

To access the Lightbar Configuration settings:

1. Select Settings on the bottom left of the Home screen. The Settings Menu will open.
2. Select Lightbar on the Settings menu. The Lightbar Configuration window will open.
3. The default setting for the lightbar is enabled. To disable the lightbar, deselect the Enable checkbox.
4. The default setting for the Reverse LED Indication is active. When disabled, LEDs will illuminate in the direction the operator needs to steer to get back on line. Deselect the Reverse LED Indication checkbox if desired.
5. Select the Use CrossTrack Error checkbox to have the lights directly correlate to the distance from the guidance line. This option is automatically enabled if steering is detected and the option has not been manually changed by the user. The option is disabled by default and the lights integrate both cross track and track angle errors to give the user a more natural steering feedback response for manual steering.
6. The default setting for Path Deviation Sensitivity is Fine. Select the desired radial button to adjust the Path Deviation Sensitivity. While adjusting the sensitivity, note that the lightbar increments along the bottom indicates the distance off line for each light.

   Note:  For example, with Fine selected, the first red light will turn on when the implement is 4” (10 cm) off line, and the second light will turn on when the implement is 10” (26 cm) off line.

7. If an external lightbar is connected via the serial port, that option will display on the Lightbar Settings window and be selected. If desired, deselect the external lightbar.
8. Select Accept to save the displayed settings and return to the Settings menu.
