ENVIZIO PLUS

Installation and Operation Manual

1

Congratulations on your purchase of the Envizio Plus guidance system!

This system is the ultimate guidance solution, featuring numerous guidance

patterns, LED combined with on-screen guidance, datalogging, and much

more.

Initial Start-up

Upon initial start-up of your Envizio Plus system, you will be prompted to

set two configuration settings. Once these two settings are made, the

Envizio Plus is ready for use. You will not be prompted again for these two

settings, only the very first time you power-on the system. After that, if you

wish to change these settings, you may do so via the Configuration Pages,

which you will learn about later in this manual.

Starting the Envizio Plus System

1. Press the Power switch to power-on the Envizio Plus system.

2. The first initial start-up screen, Swath Width, displays. Touch either the

‘10’ or the ‘1’ and then the right or the left red arrow to either

increase or decrease the swath width by increments of 10 or 1. After you

have set the desired number, touch ‘Next’.

2

3. The second initial start-up screen, Antenna Position, displays. Touch

either the ‘10’ or the ‘1’ and then the right or the left red arrow or the

up or down red arrow to either increase or decrease the antenna

position in increments of 10 or 1. After you have set the desired

number, touch ‘OK’.

4. The Home Screen will display and you can begin guidance.

Helpful Hints:

• Normally the antenna position is set in

reference to the application location.

• If you touch ‘Cancel’ on either of the two

configuration screens above, you will be

prompted again to set these the next time you

power-on the Envizio Plus system.

• This is the overall boom width for guidance.

To configure individual booms, see the

configuration section.

3. Press OK to proceed with the system generated file name, or touch

‘Change Name’ to type in a name for the file.

Helpful Hints:

• The default file name contains the date and time as

received by GPS. This will only appear if the Log

status is ‘On’. If you forgot to turn the Log status

‘On’, you can go back to the Home screen and turn

it on at anytime during the job. You will then be

prompted to name the file.

• If you choose to type your own name for the file,

you can use the touch pad to type the letters of the

file name. The keypad letters (shown below) work

similar to that of a telephone. For example, touch

the ‘ABC’ button once for ‘A’, three times for the

‘C’, and so on. Once you have typed in the name,

touch OK.

heading, remember that 0 degrees is North, 90 degrees is East, 180

degrees is South, and 270 degrees is West.

Setting the Last Pass Pattern

Pass’ as your pattern.

A-B Line and you can immediately start applying your product.

Remember: Coverage (or boom) must be on in

order to get guidance. Guidance is based on the

nearest ‘covered’ area.

7. When you get to the end of your pass and turn the vehicle, Envizio Plus

will detect the nearest area that you mapped and use this as your guid-

ance on the next swath line.

Setting the Pivot Pattern

your pattern.

2. Touch ‘OK’ to proceed with the system generated file name, or touch

‘Change Name’ to type in a name for the file.

AutoBoom settings.

starting point in your circle is located. When you are ready to set Point

A, touch the green ‘Set A’ box on the screen.

touch the green ‘Set B’ box on the screen.

you just set.

Important: Currently, this pattern does not require

that a complete pivot pass be driven in order to

generate guidance, but the further you drive before

setting Point B, the more accurate the guidance

will be.

Using AccuBoom

The AccuBoom feature provides automatic spray control of your booms.

With this feature, you can set up spray/no spray zones in your field. You

must have a CAN AccuBoom kit installed in order to use this feature. See

the Configuration Pages for more information on how to use and configure

this feature.

Using Autoboom

The Autoboom feature provides automatic boom height control of your

booms. With this feature, you can set your booms so that they automatically

adjust to the correct height in your field. You must have a CAN Autoboom

kit installed in order to use this feature. See the Configuration Pages for

more information on how to use and configure this feature.

Using a Raven Console

If you are using a Raven console to data log information with the Envizio

Plus system, you have the capability to view rate information on the

guidance screen. If you press the MPH area two times, the rate information

will appear and display up to five different rates. The guidance area will also

appear ‘painted’ to show your rates in the different areas, according to what

is being logged by your Raven console. See the Job Screen Features and

Areas section for more information on this feature.

Using a Raven CAN Console

If you are using a Raven console to data log information with the Envizio

Plus system, you have the capability to view rate information on the

guidance screen. If you press the MPH area two times, the rate information

will appear and display up to five different rates. The guidance area will also

appear ‘painted’ to show your rates in the different areas, according to what

is being logged by your Raven console. See the Job Screen Features and

Areas section for more information on this feature.

Remember: If serial console is selected, the console

you are using MUST have a serial port. If a CAN

console is selected, then it DOES NOT need to have a

serial port.
