Obstacle warning
The "Obst. Alarm Audio" window on the
"Precision Farming Setup" screen (Home
> Toolbox > PF) determines whether an
audible alarm sounds when the vehicle (with
its implement or header) enters the obstacle
warning zone.
The audible alarm is automatically enabled and cannot be
disabled whenever the "Autoguidance" application is ac-
tive in the display. The window is dimmed and cannot be
selected. The audible alarm beeps slowly for 3 s , and
then more rapidly for 2 s to alert the operator that the ve-
hicle (with its implement or header) is approaching a field
obstacle. After this 5 s period, a single alarm tone sounds
once every 30 s until the warning condition clears. The
alarm is accompanied by a flashing "Approaching Obsta-
cle" icon in the status and warning icon area.
When the "Autoguidance" application is not active, the op-
erator can turn the audible alarm ON or OFF. If the alarm is
turned ON, a single tone sounds once every 30 s until the
warning condition clears. If the alarm is turned OFF, no
audible alarm occurs. The "Approaching Obstacle" icon
displays in the status and warning icon area regardless of
whether the audible alarm is turned ON or OFF. The icon
flashes when the alarm is turned ON and displays without
flashing when the alarm is turned OFF.
NOTE: The alarm behavior occurs if any part of the vehi-
cle (with its implement or header) enters the alarm zone.
NOTE: When the "Autoguidance" application is active, the
obstacle warning behavior is canceled when the steer-
ing wheel is turned or the "Guidance Engage" button is
pressed to disengage automatic steering.
The alarm zone is different for forward and reverse oper-
ation.
If the vehicle is operating in a forward gear, the
approaching obstacle warning occurs:
• When the vehicle is within 5 m (16 ft) of the obstacle
OR
• When the vehicle, at its current speed, is within the
alarm look ahead distance of the obstacle, as defined
in the "Alarm Look Ahead" window (Home > Toolbox >
PF)
