4-Using the Viper System
Viewing an Existing Job
When you view an existing job, you cannot add to the job. You would typically use
this feature to view information for a saved job.
1. Press Menu, then Start Job, From File, and View Only. The Select
Existing Job File screen opens.
2. Select a job from the list and press OK. Viper opens the job.
3. Press Menu, Close Job to close the job when you are finished viewing it.
Adding to an Existing Job
You can use the Viper console to add information to a job that was previously started.
You can use this feature if you closed the job before completion because of a change
in weather conditions, lack of materials, etc.
Important: When re-opening an existing job, Viper will
automatically go into Paused Mode. You must un-pause the
job before attempting to add to it.
When you add to an existing job, the original data is used. Make sure that if you are
adding to an existing job, the files used by and created in the existing job are still
present on the flashdisk.
If you are adding to an existing job, make sure that the Viper setup parameters are
the same as when the job was originally started. These parameters include number
of booms, boom widths, boom offsets, etc.
Helpful Hint: If you used the Viper Guidance feature for an
existing job, the original swathing pattern is used when you add to
the job. Due to shifts in satellite geometry between the time the
job was originally started and when it was reopened, you should
perform a Swath re-calibration to update the swathing pattern
information.
1. Select Menu, then Start Job, From File, and Add to Job. The Select
Existing Job File screen displays.
2. Select the job you want to open from the list and press OK. Viper loads the
job information.
3. Press Cont. Job to add to the job.
