  • Page 8: Introduction

    Introduction About THE LEGEND SECTION AWARE Wi-Fi THE LEGEND S.A. Wi-Fi THE LEGEND S.A Wi-Fi is a Rate and Blockage ECU that communicates with tablet computers using Wi-Fi technology. The Wi-Fi system communicates with the smartphone/tablet via an “App” (short for application). The App provides a user interface to display the information about the air seeder operation.
