| Can I use my AFS Pro600 to control my Raven controlled implement to manual or prescription variable rate product and/or make as-applied maps? | |
| - Yes. You will need to use your AFS Pro600 in conjunction with a Raven 100 or 1000 series controller. You will need a Raven null modem harness (part # 115-0159-822) to go from the Raven to the AFS Pro600 3rd Party Harness. If you already have your AFS Pro600 installed (powered) in a vehicle, you will need Case IH part #87732647. This harness will provide you with 2 serial connections on the AFS Pro600. One will be used to connect to the Raven 115-0159-822 cable. The other can be used to connect to another serial device such as a GPS receiver, another Raven controller, or a Rawson controller. If you do not have your AFS Pro600 installed in a vehicle and require a "stand-alone" installation, you will need Case IH part #87735690. This harness will provide the display with power as well as provide you with 2 serial connections on the AFS Pro600 as described above. The current operator's manual for the AFS Pro600 when used with a Raven display is document number 87472171 and is available from the CNH Document Management Center. |

| I have a 36' 2062 draper header. What should I put in as my Header Offset in the AFS Pro 600 display? |
|
| - Header Offset is used for calculating autoguidance swaths and accurately mapping harvested regions. It is critical that this value be accurately entered in the combine display. The Header Offset is determined by measuring the horizontal distance between the GPS receiver and the center of the header. In the case of a 36' 2062 draper, the Header Offset will be +1 foot. For a 39' 2052 draper head, the Header Offset will be +1.5 feet. If the header is longer on the left than on the right, the Header Offset will be a negative value. See the Header Offset Illustration document for additional details on Header Offset. |

| I have a Case IH AFS Pro600 display. I want to clear last year's data from my monitor and card. How do I do this? | |
| - The steps below will erase all recorded AFS data from the data card and the AFS Pro 600 display. Ensure that you have backed up or archived your data before proceeding. 1. Delete the *.CN1 folder from the data card using your personal computer. 2. Power up the display without the data card installed, and go to Main > Data Management > Delete. 3. Select Data Type "Task", Operation "Grain Harvest", and Grower "All", Farm "All", Field "All", and Task "All". 4. Push the "Delete" button. You will be asked to confirm that you want to delete the selected data. Press OK to confirm or Cancel to exit without deleting any data. 5. Turn the power off to the display and allow it to power down completely. You can now insert the data card. Your Grower, Farm, and Field names remain in the display, but all of your previous years' data will be deleted. If you want to delete ALL data, including setup values such as Grower, Farm, and Field names, choose Data Type "Grower" in Step 3. |
