  • Page 32: Settings

    4 Settings 4.1 Range (Default = 40) The range setting controls the aggressiveness of the Truesight system. Increasing the range increases the angle to which the wheels turn. To adjust the range – go to: Setup>>Range in the menu.  Properly adjusting the range is the most important step for optimum steering response.

  • Page 33: Auxiliary Engage

    To change this setting – go to: Setup>>Aux Engage in the menu. If you choose to use the Headsight provided footswitch – choose “Default”. If you do not wish to use any auxiliary switch – choose “Off”. If you wish to use a switch other than the one provided, contact Headsight for assistance.

  • Page 34: Auto-Engage Delay (Default = 2.5 Sec)

    Decrease the deadband if:  The system wanders in the row without even trying to turn the wheels. Increase the deadband if:  The system is steering excessively often even on relatively straight rows. 4.9 Auto-engage delay (Default = 2.5 sec) The Auto-Engage Delay adjusts the time delay between when the operator lowers the header and Truesight engages when using the Auto-Engage feature.

  • Page 35: Left Deadzone (Default = Calibrated Value, 0 If Not Calibrated)

    4.14 Left Deadzone (Default = Calibrated Value, 0 if not calibrated) The Left Deadzone setting allows manual manipulation of the minimum output of the Truesight system when turning left. This value is expressed in % of the maximum speed. To change this setting – go to: Setup>>ADV Settings>>Left Deadzone in the menu.

  • Page 36: Calibration
