Invicta GPS or Phoenix series receiver. See the Viper Guidance section in Chapter 8 for
more detailed operation. All of these features can be added at any time.
The AccuBoom feature is also available for use with the Viper system. Please see the
AccuBoom section in Chapter 6 for more information.
You can connect Viper to any new or existing Raven serial interface control console or
Raven CAN bus control system and virtually any new or existing DGPS receiver. Viper
can provide automatic variable-rate control for liquid, granular, anhydrous, or injection prod-
ucts. Viper will also datalog and store as-applied data or scouting information on a portable
flashdisk. This as-applied information can be used to compare the field prescription to the
actual application and provide valuable documentation of the application. The Viper system
will store the application report and datalogged information as a very efficient “Rbin” file.
See Chapter 9 and Appendix A for more flashdisk file information. Viper users are not
locked into this proprietary format. Raven provides, at no additional charge, a simple Rbin
Viewer tool that allows the user to view and print the application report and also export the
logged data as a shapefile. This shapefile will interface with virtually all application man-
agement software that uses the common shapefile format.
The Viper
Interface
The Viper system is made up of easy-to-use interface components, allowing you to set up
and start using your system without delay.
Active Matrix Transflective Touchscreen
The Active Matrix Transflective touchscreen makes it easy for you to see the display in
direct sunlight or low-lighting conditions.
You can touch any part of the screen to activate a specific function. For example, if you are
in a job, you can open the Rx+Cov+Scout screen by pressing the Rx+Cov+Scout tab on the
screen until you hear a click. The Rx+Cov+Scout screen displays with the necessary
information for the selected field.
Important: Do not use sharp objects, such as ball point pens,
pocket knives, screwdrivers, etc. on the Viper display.
