SBGuidance Onland Plough I Version 1.3 I CAN 1. Instructions for installing SBGuidance Onland Plough This manual is a general guide and is not intended for any specific brand or type. This section provides an overview of all basic components. The exact content of the Onland Plough steering set depends on brand and type of machine.
SBGuidance Onland Plough I Version 1.3 I CAN 1.3. Assembled Onland Plough steering Angle Sensor GPS antenna Tilt mechanism Steering 6/2 valve Controller (STU) Hydraulic manifold The most suited installation location of the components depends from brand and type of the plough. In the pictures above examples of installation are shown.
SBGuidance Onland Plough I Version 1.3 I CAN 2. Installation basic components It’s advised to install the Onland Plough steering kit in the order as listed below: 1. Mounting of the angle sensor. 2. Checking of the hydraulic manifold. 3. Mounting of the manifold and connecting the hydraulic hoses.
SBGuidance Onland Plough I Version 1.3 I CAN 2.1.1. Mounting of the angle sensor in the bracket Use the following description to mount the angle sensor in the bracket (Figure 2): 1. The sensor consist of two parts, both need to be mounted with M5 bolts. The smallest piece (little disc) needs to be mounted to the “arm”-bracket and the...
SBGuidance Onland Plough I Version 1.3 I CAN 2.1.2. Mounting of the angle sensor to the plough frame 1. Find a suited place on the ploughs main frame with enough room so the sensor can move freely (Figure 3). The plough width regulation beam can move independent from the main frame.
Page 15
SBGuidance Onland Plough I Version 1.3 I CAN 3. Depending on the range choose a hole in the sensor arm to mount the ball joint. To determine see Table 1and Figure 6. By choosing the optimal hole an as wide as possible voltage range in the sensor is obtained.
SBGuidance Onland Plough I Version 1.3 I CAN 2.2. Checking the hydraulic manifold The hydraulic implement manifold is suited for use in both Load-Sense (L.S.) and Open Centre (O.C.) hydraulic systems. Depending on the type of installation a different type of selector plug must be installed in the manifold (Table 2, Figure 7).
SBGuidance Onland Plough I Version 1.3 I CAN 2.3. Mounting the hydraulic manifold For mounting purposes the manifold is equipped with 3x M8 holes with internal thread. Attach the manifold to the supplied manifold bracket (Figure 10). Place the manifold in such a way that the...
SBGuidance Onland Plough I Version 1.3 I CAN 2.5. Mounting of the proximity sensors To determine the actual plough position it’s needed to install two proximity sensors on the rear-mounted three-point linkage of the plough (Figure 12). The position of the plough is needed to determine the correct centre offset for the GPS-antenna.
Page 19
SBGuidance Onland Plough I Version 1.3 I CAN Important!: When the plough is in its left or right position it’s important that the proximity sensors get a solid measurement, but as soon as the plough starts to flip the sensors need to be idle!
SBGuidance Onland Plough I Version 1.3 I CAN 2.6. Mounting of the GPS-Antenna On a semi-mounted reversible plough the GPS- antenna needs to be mounted near the trailed wheel. Try to place the antenna as low as possible and make sure the antenna stays free of any contact during the flipping over process of the plough.
SBGuidance Onland Plough I Version 1.3 I CAN 2.7. Placing and connecting cabling An Implement Ready cable harness is required on the tractor for connecting the Onland plough steering. The IBBC connector ensures that connection (Figure 16). Section 2.8 shows a schematic view of the cable connecting circuit.
Page 22
SBGuidance Onland Plough I Version 1.3 I CAN Tip: Tie-wrap the cables in such a way that they are attached free from vibration and friction. Press the connectors firmly into place until they click! A panel mount antenna connection mounted on the IBBC bracket is optional (Figure 18).
SBGuidance Onland Plough I Version 1.3 I CAN 2.8. CAN implement harness Onland Plough (schematics) Figure 19 CAN Implement harness Onland Plough SBG-Onland-Plough-IM-EN-V1.3 I Pag 23/39...
SBGuidance Onland Plough I Version 1.3 I CAN 3. Mounting antenna tilt- mechanism When a mounted reversible plough is used for Onland Plough steering the antenna tilt mechanism needs to be installed. The mechanism makes sure that the GPS antenna always is in the upwards position regardless of the position of the plough.
SBGuidance Onland Plough I Version 1.3 I CAN 3.1.1. Lemken Juwel 8 The Lemken Juwel 8 adapter piece needs to be mounted on that part of the plough frame that holds the trailed wheel (Figure 21). Place the adapter piece over the plough frame and mark the positions of the mounting holes.
SBGuidance Onland Plough I Version 1.3 I CAN 3.2. Mounting of the 6/2 hydraulic valve The cylinder present in the antenna tilt mechanism is operated through the implement manifold. To switch between operating the antenna tilt cylinder and the width regulation cylinder on the plough a 6/2 hydraulic valve needs to be installed.
SBGuidance Onland Plough I Version 1.3 I CAN 4. Configuration and calibration The following software and firmware versions are required for the setup, calibration and use of the Onland Plough steering: CAN-Tool 1.29 or more recent version. Onland Plough-steering firmware STU_Onland_Plough_3.0.25 or newer...
SBGuidance Onland Plough I Version 1.3 I CAN 4.1. Configuration CAN-Tool Initialize the CAN tool. At Hardware, choose manufacturer “Viper 4” in case of a Viper4 terminal and “SBG” in case of a GeoSTAR terminal and press on Initialize. After initializing the connection with the CAN bus, a bus load must be displayed.
SBGuidance Onland Plough I Version 1.3 I CAN 4.2. Determine control speeds The manifold is equipped with a proportional valve. 1. In the tab page Steering (Figure 29) select Actuator Type: PWM No Lock to use proportional steering. Allow the oil from the tractor to warm up before starting the determination of the control rates.
Page 30
SBGuidance Onland Plough I Version 1.3 I CAN 0.05 V/sec. The plough width regulation cylinder should respond immediately if the minimum values are set. Otherwise, increase the minimum control values. Important: When minimum control values are applied, the control response to contract or broaden should be just as quick.
SBGuidance Onland Plough I Version 1.3 I CAN 4.3. Calibrating angle sensor The angle sensor is placed to measure the actual plough width. Calibrating the plough width is needed so the angle sensor voltages correspond correctly with the actual plough width.
Page 32
SBGuidance Onland Plough I Version 1.3 I CAN 3. When the plough is in its widest position, measure the actual plough width. For easy measuring it might be useful to clamp a straight metal bar to the landside of the last plough body (Figure 31).
SBGuidance Onland Plough I Version 1.3 I CAN 4.4. Configuration PID controllers Use the default settings for the PID controllers (PID Steer and PID Track). The default settings can be obtained by pressing the Restore Group Defaults button. The response of the controllers can be adjusted by changing the dealer gain percentages.
SBGuidance Onland Plough I Version 1.3 I CAN 4.5. Calibrating Antenna tilt mechanism A mounted reversible plough is equipped with an antenna tilt mechanism. In the tab page Antenna Tilt (Figure 35) the angle sensor, tilt speed and steering speeds for the tilt mechanism need to be calibrated.
SBGuidance Onland Plough I Version 1.3 I CAN 3. Set both steering times (Cilinder In/Out time) at 6 seconds to start with. 4. Determine the steering speed by tilting the plough several times. Start with a Tilt Speed of 25%. Decrease or increase the...
SBGuidance Onland Plough I Version 1.3 I CAN 4.7. Checking centre adjustments The GPS-antenna on the plough is placed out of the centre of the machine. Depending on the used working width value it’s needed to adjust the centre offset of the plough antenna. If centre offset isn’t set correctly the actual plough...
