  • Page 7: Installation

    Installation Before working on combine or under header always: 1. Perform all combine and header manufacturer safety precautions for servicing header. 2. Insert stop to prevent movement of header. 3. Set combine parking brake. 4. Turn off combine and remove key from ignition. 5.
  • Page 8: Insight ® Systems

    Skip steps 2-4 if the Header manual already had you mount Insight box. 1. Connect Insight box to main Headsight harness. 2. Hold box at rear of header so Headsight harness can reach feeder house electrical connection of combine and mark mounting hole locations.
  • Page 9: Power Bypass Installation: R50-R72 Pre-1998

    The OEM header control board requires the power update to supply sufficient power to the Headsight electronics. The update use a fuse to bypass a resistor on the OEM control module. The header control may still be turned off using the 4 position switch in the cab.

  • Page 13: Calibration

    Calibration Setup Insight ® These steps must be performed the first time the Insight box is powered up and each time it is reset. They do not need to be redone each time the Insight box is calibrated. Read the Insight Overview section for basic information about how to use the Insight box. 1.
  • Page 14: Calibrate Insight

    Each Insight box comes with a 5 hour free trial of Foresight. If you would like to purchase Foresight, contact Headsight. 1. Park the combine on a smooth, level surface, preferably a cement driveway or shop floor.

    Feathersight Calibration (if equipped) ® Feathersight is an optional module to improve the performance of grain systems. It uses both height sensors and the feeder house pressure sensor to allow seamless control from off ground to on ground harvesting. • Insight automatically enables the pressure sensor when detected during calibration.
  • Page 17: Settings

    It is very difficult to properly set the hydraulic accumulator on AGCO combines. Expect to spend some time in trial-and-error. Headsight recommends replacing the ¼ turn valve shown with a multiple turn valve for improved adjustability. Contact Headsight for more information.

    ® Lower valves with our AGCO hydraulic response kit for better operation with ALL heads. Contact Headsight. May not apply to all models. Tilt Sensitivity & Balance 1. Adjust the balance knob (2) to center the level of the header 2.
  • Page 19: Insight ® Settings

    Settings ® Tilt Algorithm Selection Headsight offers two algorithm choices for controlling lateral tilt. The choice of tilt algorithm is only available for 4 and 5 sensor systems. To change this setting go to >>Setup>>Tilt Options in the Insight menu.
  • Page 20: HpBalance

    Feathersight – HP Balance ® This setting is only applicable of you have installed and calibrated the optional Feathersight module. 1. To change this setting go to >>Setup>>Optional Modules>>Feathersight>>HP Balance in the Insight box. What to know: • This setting is the percentage of the height response determined by the height sensors – as contrasted with the height response determined by the pressure sensor •...
  • Page 21: Operation

    Operation After calibrating Insight and combine, operate the Headsight system exactly like you would use a AGCO system. Enabling Height Control 1. Turn Selector switch ON (any of 3.) 2. Engage thresher and header clutches. 3. Press header lower button.
  • Page 22: Adjusting Header Height

    • Counter-Clockwise = lower 2. Because the Headsight box is designed to work with many OEM sensors, it may be possible for the operator to choose a height that is too low for proper operation, meaning the sensors would never send a raise signal.

  • Page 25: Advanced Information

    Advanced Information Theory of Operation A review of the following points will help the service technician to understand the complete system, which will help diagnose specific problems. 1. Each sensor returns a variable voltage depending on header height. • High header height = high voltage (approximately 4 volts) •...
  • Page 26: Reading Voltages

    Reading Voltages Before you Start The Insight box can display both the input voltages it receives from each sensor and the output voltages it is sending to the combine. Sensor voltage = Insight box output voltage = Insight box input voltage Combine sensor input Insight box scales voltages received to what combine...
