1. Specific Seeding Scenario Setup
1. Go to Settings page (wrench icon
in bottom left corner).
2. Select appropriate tank grouping
(how the tanks are actually inter-
connected together) - go to Implement
/Seeder/Granular/Tank Grouping.
Console Toolbar
The lower Console Toolbar can be accessed
by swiping up from the bottom of the
screen. It will pop up on the bottom of the
screen with the available functions.
Quick Help
Question mark button on the
Console Toolbar toggles on/off
help mode. While in the help mode
a blue question mark is displayed
beside each icon on the screen. To see
description for icon touch blue question
mark beside it. To continue to work turn off
help mode.
Initial One-Time Setup
Select wrench icon to go to Settings page.
1. Change units settings - go to User/
Units.
2. Enable Auto Section Control (ASC)
if using coverage map to turn seeder
on/off. Go to System/Features/
Implement. Also enable Area Counters
to record treated areas for each tank.
3. GPS settings (if used) - go to System/
GPS, enter appropriate GPS settings to
get GPS signal into X35 console.
Note: GPS is the preferred ground speed
source to achieve the best accuracy.
4. Create your specific tractor profile - go
to Vehicle/New and follow prompts.
5. Create your specific airseeder tank and
drill profile - go to Implement/New/
Factory and follow prompts. Select
Apollo for ECU type.
6. Detect ECU’s following the procedure
in the X35 manual (Section 6.3.2
- ECU Manage).
7. Verify geometry for each boom. Go to
Implement/Geometry.
2. Calibration
1. Engage airseeder fan hydraulics.
2. Open Configuration panel.
3. Enter speed that you will be seeding
at, this will ensure that calibration is
performed at seeding speed.
4. Enter Calibration mode and follow
the prompts on the screen to perform
a calibration for all the enabled tanks,
refer to Section 8.4 - Calibration in the
X35 Operator’s Manual for calibrating.
3. Creating Field & Job
(units with GPS only)
If using GPS, Field and Job must be
created before seeding.
1. Open Guidance.
2. Create new Field.
3. Create new Job.

Important:
Granular Fertilizer & NH3/
Liquid boom geometry and section widths
are preset as a MRB layout. If that is not
the case adjust geometry and section widths
of booms accordingly. Also all boom
geometry is set as the latest configurations
coming from the factory so should be
verified for older units.
8. If using sectional control, set on/off times
for section valves for each boom. Go to
Implement/Section Control/Timing.
(Time from section valve to the ground).
9. Set up the in-cab & on frame switchbox.
Go to Implement/Keypad. Pick the ID
for the respective keypad.
10.
Set the on/off sequence time for each
tank. Go to Implement/Seeder/Granular
Tank. (For non-sectional it is time from
the meter to the ground, for sectional it is
time from the meter to the section valve).
11. For each tank select metering auger type
(stamped on the end of the shaft: 1X
- single flight, 2X - double flight, HX
- high output, LO - low output) - go to
Implement /Seeder/Granular/Drive
Setup.
12. Enable drill control (if installed)
- go to
Implement/Seeder/Drill Control.
13. Enable blockage monitoring (if installed)
- go to Implement/Seeder/Accessories/
Blocked Head.
14. Enable brakes (if installed) - go to
Implement/Seeder/Accessories/Brake
Control.
15. Configure weigh system (if installed)
- go to Implement/Seeder/Weigh Scales
16. Select speed source that will be used - go
to Implement /Seeder/Speed Source.
17.
Enter new products - go to Product/
Granular or Liquid, select New Product
and follow prompts.

When the Master Switch is
turned on and the unit is seeding
the icon will be green.
When the Master Switch is
turned on but something is stop-
ping the meters from turning the
icon will be yellow. (e.g. ASC
over coverage, tanks switched off, etc.)
If the Master Switch icon is red
it means something is not ready
preventing you from starting to
seed. Press the icon to bring up a
Status menu displaying what is preventing
seeding.
4. Seeding
If the Master Switch icon is
white it means the system is
ready to seed.
Start moving and turn Tank switches and Master switch ON to begin seeding (using
cabin switchbox or on screen switches).
Note: All the screens might not look exactly the same as shown depending on how the
monitor is setup and what airseeder configuration is being used.

5. Area Terminology
A - Area Worked - Displays the calculated
area that the boom has covered includ-
ing any overlapped area and is based on
GPS painted area.
- Displayed on the dashboard for the
current boom displayed on the guid-
ance screen.
- Also displayed on the job statistics
mini-view with a tab to change
between booms.
- Appears for each layer in the job
report. The Applied Rate layers for
each tank account for the on time of
the tanks so may differ slightly from
the Coverage Map layers for each
boom.
The Area Worked is based on GPS painted
area and takes into account curves and turns
so is the most accurate representation of the
area that the product has been applied over!
Older software used to display Covered
Area which did not account for overlap so
was not an accurate representation of the
area that product was actually applied over!
B - Boundary Area - Displays the calcu-
lated area within the boundary when
created and is based on GPS.
C - Area Remaining - Displays the calcu-
lated area remaining unpainted within
the boundary when created and is based
on GPS.
D - Treated Area - Displays the calculated
area each tank has applied product over
based on the width of the boom and the
distance travelled based on speed and
time.
- Displayed on the job area counters
and implement area counters for
each tank in the seeder controller
screen.
- Appears for the summary of each
tank at the end of the job report.
Treated Area in the Job Area Counter
should be close to Area Worked but will
differ due to calculation not being as ac-
curate as GPS (if certain tanks are switched
off for extended periods then it would dif-
fer more substantially).
If using manual speed or wheel speed and
they are slightly out the Treated Area will
become less accurate.

E - ASC Savings - Displays the calculated
percent savings in area of a sectional
boom compared to the area that would
have been applied if it were a full width
boom.
F - Full Area - Displays the calculated
area that would have been applied if the
boom was full width.
- Appears for the summary of each
tank at the end of the job report.

manually.
Either Job Area Counter or Implement Area

both at the same time.
