Important Safety Information
This is a safety alert symbol. When the symbol below appears on the device, be alert and attentive because there is the potential for personal injury.
Follow the recommended precautions and safe operation practices.
Install the Display
-
Mount the antenna on the centerline of the tallest point of the vehicle (usually on the top of the vehicle cabin) using the magnetic mount. Make sure that the antenna has a clear, 360° view of the sky.
Note: If the mounting location is non-magnetic, use a mounting plate to mount the antenna. -
Route the Power/GPS cable to the back of the field computer and connect it to the Power/GPS connection.
CR7™ Back
The image below shows the connections on the back of the CR7™ that will be used for installation. Note that, depending on machine configuration, some of these connections may not be used.
See “System Diagrams” on page 4 for additional
information on cabling.
CR12™ Back
The image below shows the connections on the back of the CR12™ that will be used for installation. Note that, depending on machine configuration, some of these connections may not be used.
See “System Diagrams” on the next page for
additional information on cabling. -
Use the provided RAM® Mount arm to install the field computer inside the cab.

Glossary
| A | APN | Access Point Name |
|---|---|---|
| AprilTag | A specific system of fiducial markers is used in robotics with |
visual or perception systems.
OMNiDRIVE™ utilizes an AprilTag marker on the hood of the tractor with the
Perception Controller.
B| baseline| In RTK correction systems, the baseline is the range
between the base and the rover. A maximum baseline defines the range between
the base and the rover before RTK corrections begin to lose precision.
Alternatively in some Raven field computers, a baseline is a segment of a
boundary that can be used to create guidance lines and application zones.
C| COG| Course Over Ground
controlling combine| The combine may assign paths to and may sync with,
the OMNiDRIVE™ tractor.
One controlling combine is required for all OMNiDRIVE™ locations.
D| dBm| decibel milliwatt
DGPS| Differential Global Positioning System is an enhancement to
standard GNSS/GPS messages to provide better position accuracy.
Differential| Differential Global Positioning System is an enhancement
to standard GNSS/GPS messages to provide better position accuracy.
DTC| Diagnostic Trouble Code
E| E-Stop| Emergency stop button or switch.
ECU| Electronic Control Unit
ESN| Electronic Serial Number
ESRI| Environmental Systems Research Institute
EULA| End User License Agreement
F| FNRP| Forward, Neutral, Reverse, Park
G| GFF| Grower, Farm, Field
GIS| Geographic Information System
GLONASS| Global Navigation Satellite System
GNSS| Global Navigation Satellite System
H| HDOP| Horizontal Dilution of Precision
HDU| Hydraulic Drive Unit
homologation| Approval or certification of devices (especially
electrical and communications devices) for use in specific regions or
countries.
I| IBBC| Implement Bus Breakaway Connector. Connects to the IBIC on
the towed implement.
IBIC| Implement Bus Implement Connector. Connects to the IBBC mounted on
the tractor or tow implement.
IMEI| International Mobile Station Equipment Identity
IVT| Infinitely Variable Transmission
L| lightbar| (a.k.a. light bar) Provides guidance control and
display for swathing applications.
M| mid-point| Mid-points are points through which the cart must
pass on the way to the stage or unload points. Mid-points may be used during
route planning to adjust the route to keep the cart away from obstacles or to
help point the tractor in the desired direction at the stage or unload points.
multipath| error induced in GNSS corrections due to signals arriving at
the GNSS antenna after reflecting off of or diffusing from objects around the
vehicle.
N| NMEA| National Marine Electronics Association
non-controlling combine| A combine operating with the OMNiDRIVE™ tractor
and controlling combine. A noncontrolling combine may share harvest coverage
data to the coverage map during a harvest job, but cannot sync with or plan
routes for the
OMNiDRIVE™ tractor.
O| object pool| The user interfaces for a system or feature
connected to an ISOBUS UT.
OLAF| Online Activation Form
OTA| (Over the Air) Software updates and other information are pushed
from Slingshot® servers via the Slingshot® system.
P| prescription map| Variable Rate Application utilizes a
prescription (Rx) map for a given field and product to automatically adjust
the rate of application based on the target rate zones within the field. The
.shp, .shx, and .dbf files required to create a shapefile prescription map
must be in a polygon shape format that complies with the ESRI (Environmental
Systems
Research Institute) shapefile specifications and must also be in the WGS
(World Geodetic System) 84 datum.
PRN| Pseudo-Random Number
PST| PowerShift Transmission
R| RSSI| Received Signal Strength Indicator
RTK| Real-time Kinematic
Rx map| Variable Rate Application utilizes a prescription (Rx) map for a
given field and product to automatically adjust the rate of application based
on the target rate zones within the field. The .shp, .shx, and .dbf files
required to create a shapefile prescription map must be in a polygon shape
format that complies with the ESRI (Environmental Systems
Research Institute) shapefile specifications and must also be in the WGS
(World Geodetic System) 84 datum.
S| scout map| A map of field features or areas of interest in a
field. Field features may include, but are not limited to field boundaries,
weed or insect infestations, tile lines or waterways, rocks and rock piles,
trees, spray or no-spray zones, etc.)
shapefile| A shapefile is a vector format consisting of a .shp, .shx,

automates a system or logs data from various field operations. The
capabilities of a task controller vary but may offer some simple control
features such as automatic section control or more complex features for

wait to be unloaded into a grain truck.
Move the unload point if the location where trucks will access the field
