Before starting the functional test you should fill out this form...
Page 4
Your first step will be to ensure the in cab connections are correct. The best instructions are in section 11 of the X35 operators manual.
Page 5
The next step will be to enter the setup menu. Press the wrench icon located in the lower left corner of the operating screen.
Page 6
Go to User/Region/Units and make sure the units are as indicated above...
Page 7
If tank is equipped with scales you go to System/Features/Console and Enable the UNIVERSAL TERMINAL...
Page 8
Also in System/Features/Console make sure the XTEND is Enabled...
Page 9
Go to System/Features/Implement and Enable AUTO SECTION CONTROL to allow guidance to control and if it equipped with scales Enable WEIGH SCALES. This is also where you enable VARIABLE RATE CONTROL if using it.
Page 10
Go System/Features/XTEND see section 13 of the X35 operators manual for instructions on set up and operation of the XTEND app.

Go to System/Features/Quick Start and Enable the Export Job Report for previous job and Change Field. Set up the ACTION for the Field to Create Field for the function test.
Page 12
Go to System/Features/Quick Start and enable Change Job then set the ACTION for the Change Job to Create Job and for the function test then select Prompt for the SET JOB NAME...
Page 13
Go to System/GPS/Receiver and set GPS RECEIVER to NMEA Source, the BAUD RATE must match what the tractor is outputting. See the customer service centre section of the Bourgault web site for set up instructions. (A.-First Time Setup / A.6-GPS)
Page 14
Go to Vehicle/ Select and if there is not a tractor selected go to New and select a similar tractor.
Page 15
Go to Vehicle / Geometry. It is important to check all of the dimensions so the location of the receiver is relevant to the location of the drill.
Page 16
Go to Implement/New/Factory and start the process of creating a new Implement Template profile. For our example we will be selecting a unit with Dual Granular ASC Boom and NH3...

Apollo CM-40-1 located on the tank closest to the tank. Apollo CM-40-2 is here if you have more than 4 tanks (NH3/Liquid is also classified as a tank) Apollo EM-24-1 is the granular section control ECU located on the tank here. With our tank configuration we have 6 ECU’s, 3 on the tank as the image shows and 3 on the drill (see next slide).
Page 36
Apollo EM-24-2 is on the drill The Pack Master ECU is a CM-40 and the Blockage is an EM-24. These are both options so the ECU’s need to be added after the rest We have labeled the Drill ECU’s are detected. for demonstration purposes.
