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.
Header Insight Adapter 1. Install Insight box at rear of header within reach of feederhouse electrical connection on combine and mark mounting hole locations. 2. Secure box to header. • Drill mounting holes using ¼” drill bit • Use provided tie straps or ¼” bolts •...
9. 6/700FC only: Tie Y182 so it is easy to connect during header hookup. 10. If your header harness has mating 1 pin Weatherpack plugs on purple wires, connect the plugs for hydraulic reel drive only. Otherwise, leave them disconnected. Draper Speed Kit, 6/7xxFD Only 1.
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.
Combine Ground Calibration A combine calibration must be completed on new installations or if a component of the header control system is changed on the combine. See combine operators manual for details. The Gleaner and Fendt combines use slightly different icons & screens in some steps.
Header Calibration 1. With Insight calibrated, park on level ground. ® 2. Disengage header control and header clutch. 3. On the touch screen, press Combine. 4. On the touch screen, press Calibrations. 5. Press to Select Header Calibration. 6. Press again to start Calibration.
Headsight recommends replacing the ¼ turn OEM valve shown with a multiple turn ® valve for improved tuning capability. Contact Headsight for more Information. 1. Find the accumulator • It is located either near the left front wheel or on right side of combine near the hydraulic valve stack.
Header Drop/Raise Rates 1. On the touch screen, press Combine to get the Combine Main Menu. 2. On the touch screen, press Header Settings. 3. Fendt Ideal only, press Header Rates. Gleaner 4. Adjust Slow Up % • Use the Scroll Wheel to change values, Press OK. •...
Insight Settings ® Tilt Sensitivity If the head is too jumpy from side to side – decrease sensitivity. If you would like the head to be more responsive – increase sensitivity. To change this setting go to >>Settings>>Tilt Sensitivity in the Insight™ box. The range is from 5 to 95 with a default setting of 50. Tilt Balance If the head is consistently running higher on one end than the other, Tilt Balance manually tweaks the combine height inputs to level it out.
Operation After calibrating Insight and combine, operate the Headsight system exactly like you would use a AGCO system. Enabling Height Control 1. Turn on separator and header clutches. Gleaner 2. Enable auto header height mode (A). 3. Enable auto tilt (B).
Overview Insight Navigation ® How to Navigate When in a menu (selection arrow appears to left side) • Enter: chooses the selected menu choice • Esc: backs up one menu level • Up: moves up within the menu choices displayed •...
To reset all settings hold Updating Insight Software with USB Drive ® Updating software may cause the Foresight option to be disabled. If you have purchased Foresight, contact Headsight before updating software. 1. You will need: • USB drive •...
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) •...
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...
On the Insight Box : Output Voltages ® 1. From main menu, go to >> Diagnostics>>Display Voltages • This shows real-time voltage sent to the combine 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 • AGCO combines have no center input, should read 0 . 0 V. Sensors^ Outputs>...
On the AGCO Tyton Monitor 1. Press the Quadrant button on the Keypad. 2. Select Diagnostics in lower left quadrant. 3. Press 4. Press Expand to 1/2 screen. 5. Expand to Full Screen if desired. • Gleaner: Press • Fendt: Press again 6.
Diagnostics 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.
All of the above are correct Harness & combine connections pass test. If you have a Headsight Sensor tester, Verify sensor is connected to extension If sensor cannot be adjusted to achieve use it to test the sensor. For all other:...
Troubleshooting by Symptom Nearly every problem with the header control system on AGCO combines may be resolved by one of the following simple steps: • Make sure each sensor meets basic requirements discussed in Advanced Info section • Properly calibrate Insight box •...
