Nudge Features and Tools

The nudge feature allows an operator to make small or incremental adjustments to a guidance path during field operations. This feature is designed to allow the equipment operator adjust the guidance path to keep the implement running between rows or inside tramlines.

ROS offers two nudge feature widgets to match how frequently the nudge feature may be used, or what nudge information is needed, during various field operations.

Refer to Add Widgets to a Screen Layout to add a widget to a screen layout before performing the following procedures.

Note:  The nudge widgets also provide to access to some AB guidance tools. Refer to Recalibrate or Reset AB Guidance Line in ROS or Save AB Guidance Paths for assistance with using these AB guidance tools during field operations.

To configure nudge distance setting for use during field operations:

  1. Select and hold the Nudge widget to access the Nudge and Swath prompt.

  2. Select the Unit Toggle button to the right of the Nudge 1 or Nudge 2 to select the desired measurement for the nudge distance.

  3. Select the Nudge 1 or Nudge 2 value and use the on-screen keypad to set the nudge distance.

To activate a nudge distance and adjust an AB guidance path during a field operation:

  1. Select and hold the Nudge widget to access the Nudge and Swath prompt.

  2. Select the Nudge 1 or Nudge 2 button along the left side of the prompt to select the active nudge distance.

  3. Select the Nudge Left or Right Button to adjust the displayed guidance path by the active nudge distance.

    Note:  If using the nudge arrow widget, tap the left or right arrows on the widget to adjust the displayed guidance line by the active nudge distance right from the guidance view or mode.

  4. The Status area on the on-screen widget will display the nudge distance and direction applied the guidance path currently displayed.

To remove any nudge distance applied to the current AB guidance path:

  1. Select and hold the Nudge widget to access the Nudge and Swath prompt.

  2. Select the Reset Nudge button to remove all nudge adjustments currently applied to the displayed guidance path.
