AGRAS T20 User Manual A-B Route Operation Mode In A-B Route operation mode, the aircraft travels along a pre-planned route. Operation resumption, data protection, altitude stabilization, obstacle avoidance, and auto obstacle circumvention functions of the radar module are available in this mode. Use the app to adjust the flying speed and spray amount. A-B Route operation mode is recommended for large, triangular, or rectangular spray areas.
Page 21
AGRAS T20 User Manual Operation Procedure Maintain VLOS of the aircraft at all times. Make sure that the GNSS signal is strong. Otherwise, A-B Route operation mode may be unreliable. Make sure to inspect operating environments before flying. Set the operation mode switch button to M (Manual operation mode) when a strong GNSS signal is present and the onscreen display is Manual Route (GNSS) or Manual Route (RTK).

AGRAS T20 User Manual Detection Range The obstacle detection range of the radar module is 360° in the horizontal direction and ±15° in the vertical direction, as shown in the figure below, and the detection distance is 1.5 - 30 m. Note that the aircraft cannot sense obstacles that are not within the detection range.
Page 27
10° at 1 m/s, 6° at 3 m/s, and 3° at 5 m/s. Maintain full control of the aircraft at all times and do not rely on the radar module and DJI Agras app. Keep the aircraft within VLOS at all times. Use your discretion to operate the aircraft manually to avoid obstacles.
If the radar module still does not work, contact DJI Support or a DJI authorized dealer. Keep the protective cover of the radar module clean. Clean the surface with a soft damp cloth and air dry before using again.

Blinks green slowly Updating the Home Point You can update the home point in DJI Agras during flight. There are two ways to set a home point: 1. Set the current coordinates of the aircraft as the home point. 2. Set the current coordinates of the remote controller as the home point.
When there is a strong GNSS signal, the dual antennas activates automatically to measure the heading of the aircraft. The T20 supports centimeter-level positioning to improve agricultural operation when used with the DJI D-RTK 2 Mobile Station. Follow the instructions below to use the RTK functions.
Make sure to disable the aircraft RTK positioning function if not in use. Otherwise, the aircraft is not able to take off when there is no differential data. Using with the DJI D-RTK 2 Mobile Station 1. Refer to the D-RTK 2 Mobile Station User Guide for more information about completing the linking between the aircraft and the mobile station and setting up the mobile station.
The remote controller uses the DJI OcuSync 2.0 image transmission system, which has a maximum control distance of up to 1.86 mi (3 km). It includes a dedicated, Android-based display that runs DJI Agras independently for operation planning and aircraft status display. Its Multi-Aircraft Control mode (supported later) can be used to coordinate the operation of up to five aircraft at the same time to improve operation efficiency.

If the aircraft loses GNSS signal and flies out of the max radius but regains GNSS signal later, it will fly back within range automatically. GEO Zones GEO zones are divided into different categories. All GEO zones are listed on the DJI official website at http://www.dji.com/flysafe. GEO zones are explained below (GNSS required): Depending on the local regulation, a certain radius around a marker forms a Restricted Zone, inside of which takeoff and flight are prohibited.
