FieldPilot® Installation If there are questions concerning the installation of the FieldPilot system on this vehicle, or due to the changes in component specifications the parts supplied in the kit are not exactly as presented in this document, please contact your dealer or TeeJet Customer service representative for clarification before installation. TeeJet Technologies is not responsible for misuse or incorrect installation of the system.
FieldPilot® 1. I NSTALL SPACERS ON STEERING FLOWMETER SENSOR (Non-ILS only) On non-ILS machines, there will be hydraulic flowmeter. The two spacers (G) will be installed on the flowmeter sensor. To gain access to the flowmeter sensor the flowmeter may need to be partially removed (depends upon tractor model). First remove the cover from the air cleaner. Disconnect the steel line from the flowmeter and remove the two bolts mounting the flowmeter.
FieldPilot® Insert spacers here G H G&H G&H www.teejet.
FieldPilot® 2. INSTALL ANGLE SENSOR INTERFACE (ILS only) Tractors with ILS will use a steering angle sensor instead of the steering flowmeter. There will be a connector for the sensor on the left side of the machine along the frame just in front of the cab. Disconnect at that location and install interface (M) in the connector going towards the cab. Then install the corresponding dust cap from kit (P) in the other connector. The R-Series connector differs from the 8x10/20/30 connector.
FieldPilot® 3. INSTALL STEERING SENSOR INTERFACES The JD tractors have two steering sensors on the steering shaft in the cab. The connectors for these sensors will need to be disconnected and Interfaces (K & L) will need to be installed. It does not matter which interface, (K) or (L), is connected to which connector. On some models the connectors are located on the right side of the steering column. Other models have the connectors on the left side.
FieldPilot® 4. INSTALL STEERING DISENGAGE INTERFACE Using the remaining unused steering sensor connector, connect interface (J). It to the SCM cable labeled Steering Wheel Sense. Secure all cables so that they will not interfere with the steering shaft. Figure 1-6: Install Steering Disengage Interface Connect J here Connect J here 8 www.teejet.
FieldPilot® 5. I NSTALL THE STEERING CONTROL MODULE (SCM) and HARNESSES The SCM (N) should mount securely to the floor of the cab with the arrows pointed forward and as level as possible. Connect harness (E & I) to the SCM. Then connect together the single position connectors on (E & I). The are labeled FAULT. Figure 1-7: I nstall The Steering Control Module (SCM) and Harnesses N N www.teejet.
FieldPilot® 6. INSTALL STEERING CABLE TO EHPS VALVE Locate the JD EHPS valve. Disconnect the cable from it and install dust cap from kit (P) on cable. Then route cable (D) from the JD EHPS valve under the cab and into the cab through the rear window. Connect to SCM harness (I). Figure 1-8: Install Steering Cable To EHPS Valve Disconnect 10 www.teejet.
FieldPilot® P D D D www.teejet.
FieldPilot® 7. INSTALL GPS ANTENNA & CONTROL CONSOLE The GPS antenna should be mounted on top of the cab as far forward as possible on a metal surface of at lease 4” square. The control console can be mounted in the cab to preference of the operator. Figure 1-9: Install GPS Antenna & Control Console GPS Console 8. Installation of Engage/Disengage Switch Connect item (A) to the connector on the SCM harness labeled Remote Engage/Disengage.
FieldPilot® 9. SPECIFIC CONSOLE SETTINGS The Valve Frequency must be set to 999. The target lock to lock time is 5 seconds which is accomplished by adjusting the Maximum Duty Cycle setting in the Matrix console. Adjust as needed the other FieldPilot settings in the Matrix console to obtain the best performance. WARNING: P INCH POINT HAZARD! To prevent serious injury or death, avoid unsafe practice while manually operating hydraulic steering circuits.
