Combine Interface Harness 1. If equipped, remove factory harness from existing single point latch plate. 2. Install Insight harness Y501 into OE or provided single point latch plate using snap ring. 3. If equipped, connect Y502 connector to OEM header plug. •...
Hours in service • Other If Headsight is controlling any function on the header (example - folding the header), the application will also require a header specific Unlock. See the appropriate Headsight specific Header App Manual for installation and operation instructions.
Combine - Horizon Power Wire MF 95xx & CH 5xx Models 1. No power wire is needed. 2. Connect Y520 to Y521 on main Insight harness on header. MF 9x95, CH 6x0B, GL Rx6-S88 Models 1. Use PFI-AGS7-P & HT9313 or HT9312. 2.
Rx5-S88 Series Combines. This kit adds PWM valves with in-cab raise & lower rate controls for smoother header response & less hunting. For more information or to purchase please contact your Headsight Dealer or call the Headsight Sales line.
Combine - Horizon Bridge If you are installing a Truesight 2 system with VT display option you will not need to install a bridge. The Truesight 2 control unit will act as a Bridge unit, follow instructions in Truesight 2 installation manual. OEM Display Agco C2100 and C3000 1.

Linking Horizon Horizon only needs to be linked at initial setup or any time a unit is replaced. See “ISOBUS Application Guide” & “Finding ISOBUS Applications” above to find Horizon ISOBUS applications. Setting Truesight 2 as Horizon Bridge Use this section ONLY when using Horizon with Truesight 2. If using standalone Horizon Bridge module, skip this section.
Initial Horizon Setup If Horizon does not appear, temporarily remove any USB memory attached to the display monitor and cycle power.

Horizon Calibration For the best header control and calibration score, always make sure the header f/a angle is set correctly. For corn heads, there should be 4-6” between skids and ground when snout tips touch, and snout tips must be adjusted even & level to header frame.
Combine Calibration A full 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. AGCO MY2009-up, except Gleaner Rx5-S88 Header Setup 1. With Insight calibrated, park on level ground.
AGCO MY2003-2008 all, & Gleaner Rx5-S88 1. With Insight calibrated, park on level ground. ® 2. Disengage header control and header clutch. 3. Increase engine speed to above 2200rpm. 4. Press and hold until the following LEDs flash. • Lower header, Tilt auto mode •...
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.
AGCO MY2009 & up, except Rx5-S88 Header Drop/Raise Rates 1. Press 2. Adjust Max Up PWM for 5-6 seconds from full down to full up. 3. Adjust Max Down PWM for 8-10 seconds from full up to full down. 4. Adjust Max RIGHT PWM 5-6 seconds from full left tilt to full right tilt.
AGCO MY1998-2008 all, Rx5-S88 Drop Rate 1. Use the adjustment bolt on lower valve of hydraulic valve stack on right-hand side of combine. • Common range is 8 - 10 seconds from full up to full down in auto mode •...
1. Be sure you have the initial settings entered and have calibrated Horizon. 2. Operate the Headsight system exactly like you would use your combine OEM height control system. 3. Fine tune all combine speed and sensitivity adjustments for best performance.

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) •...
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.
Reading Voltages in Combine AGCO MY2009-up 1. Press Misc then 2. Select VMM 4 or VMM 3 depending on your machine. • The header height left and right inputs should read 3 . 8 V head up, and about 1 . 2 V head down—never below 0 .
