<div><span>The Auto Calibrate procedure guides the operator through the calibration process for the active vehicle. The calibration steps teach the ECU-S1 system the characteristics of the vehicle and the steps are critical to achieve optimal control performance.</span><h2>Note the following:</h2><ul><li>Before beginning the calibration process, the vehicle and oil in the vehicle must be warmed to normal operating temperatures.</li><li>All implements should be removed from the vehicle prior to beginning the calibration process.</li><li>During the calibration process, have the vehicle’s engine set at normal operating speed or at least at a minimum of 1600 RPM.</li><li>The Auto Calibrate wizard takes a significant amount of space for the vehicle to operate within. Depending upon the vehicle size and type it may take at minimum approximately 300 x 700 ft (90 x 200 m) to complete the Auto Calibrate procedure.</li><li>The vehicle automatically executes a series of maneuvers during the calibration process including turning full left and full right. The calibration trajectory depends on vehicle type, controller and other differences in the vehicle. Always be prepared to take steering over manually if the vehicle drives towards an obstacle.</li><li>The field used for calibration must be dry (no water, snow or mud) and should be flat.</li><li>It is critical to have the best possible GPS/GNSS position quality for successful calibration. Before starting calibration verify the GPS uses the maximum number of available satellites and the augmentation system (ex. RTK, DGPS) is operating.</li><li>For the best results, it is recommended to drive vehicle forward for at least 60 meters (200 feet) with speed at least 6 km/h (4 mph) to establish good GPS heading before calibration.</li></ul><span>The calibration process comprises two main procedures:</span><ul><li><b>Common Calibration Steps</b> – These are the steps that all vehicles must perform during the Auto Calibrate process. These steps are also performed on vehicles that have been imported.</li><li><b>Vehicle Controller Type Specific Calibration Steps</b> – After the <b>Common Calibration Steps</b> have been completed, the Auto Calibrate continues to different steps depending on which vehicle type has been selected. The calibration routine for Valve / Steer-by-Wire, Mechanical Steering Unit / MDU-G4, and CAN Bus / ISOBUS Controllers are different.</li></ul></div>

<div><h2>I need submeter accuracy, which system should I choose?</h2><span>Our FieldBee antenna as a stand-alone device provides submeter accuracy. It means that the accuracy of the system will be below 1 meter and approximately 20-50 cm pass-to-pass.</span><span>The system can be used for tracking and performing operations that do not require high accuracy, for example spraying, or parallel driving with wide implements.</span><span>The FieldBee antenna is easy-to-use, works on batteries and doesn’t require any installation on your tractor. You can find more information about the system <a href='https://www.fieldbee.com/product/fieldbee-rtk-base-station/?utm_source=kb&utm_medium=refferal&utm_campaign=article' target='_blank'>here</a>.</span><h2>What level of accuracy do I need?</h2><span>From the experience of our customers, submeter accuracy of the system (30-50 cm) can be already helpful to work on spraying operations without tramlines, to achieve minimal overlap between passes. It already allows you to work in fog and at night but can not be used for operations that require higher precision such as seeding.</span><span>When choosing a smart antenna it is advisable to choose the one that can be later upgraded to the higher centimetre accuracy through additional purchase of RTK base station or connection to a local NTRIP provider.</span><span>Otherwise, its usage will be very limited for only certain operations and highly likely will not meet all your future needs.</span><span>Some field operations do not require high accuracy, for example, spraying, or parallel driving with wide implements. In this case, a system that provides submeter accuracy is sufficient.</span><span>But if you would like to have a system that can be used for all types of operations then we recommend you to go for the system with maximum accuracy.</span><h2>I need RTK accuracy, which system should I choose?</h2><span>You can use the FieldBee antenna in combination with the RTK base station which improves the accuracy of the FieldBee to +-1 cm.</span><span>You can also connect the FieldBee to an RTK correction network that is available in your areas such as SAPOS (Germany), FLEPOS (Belgium), MoveRTK (Netherlands) and others.</span></div>
