Choose the appropriate choice or follow the instruction given, then press enter
(Tap the Knob) to accept that choice.
1. The initial startup screen is:
oPress enter to go on
2. Choose your system:
oTrimble AutoPilot
oEZ-Steer
oOntrac
3. Scroll to your speed sensor
choice (if prompted):
oScroll to “Default” – then
press enter
4. Scroll to your footswitch choice
– then press enter.
Note: to enable or disable the footswitch at a later time – go to:
Setup>>Aux Engage
5. Park in a generally level area.

6. Tilt the base controller to the
left as shown
oRaise the Right(As sitting in
the seat) side of the base
controller
oPicture is shown facing the
rear of the combine.
oThen press enter
oPress enter once more to
accept the tilt angle sensor
calibration.
7. Steer the wheels straight ahead (by using the steering wheel).
oDrive directly ahead a short distance to verify that the wheels are
straight.
oThen press enter
8. Turn the wheels fully to the right
(by using the steering wheel).
oThen press enter
oPress enter once more to
accept the wheel angle
calibration.
Note: To redo the wheel angle calibration at a later time – go to:
Calibrations>>Wheel Angle in the TrueSight menu.
7
9. Acknowledge that the wheels
will move and that all people
are clear of the machine by
pressing enter.
10.Drive forward at approximately
1mph in a clear area free from
obstacles.
Note: After you acknowledge this screen the wheels will steer
automatically!!
11.Continue driving until calibration
is complete.
oPress enter
8
1.5 Complete in-field tuning
There are a few final adjustments to be made in the field.
1. Bump TrueSight to center the snout on the row.
oTwist the knob in the desired direction when in the run screen.
2. If the display shows that you are not centered (see red circle above) -
Calibrate the bump centered position.
oGo to >>Calibration>>Center Bump in the menu.
o...
3. Adjust the range setting for your machine.
oGo to >>Setup>>Range in the menu.

2Installation
2.1 Harness installation
2.1.1 Wiring overview
The main harness shown is the backbone of the TrueSight system,
connecting each of the components to the controllers. The harness is divided into
three main legs designated by the circles above.
1. The “In-Cab” leg connects to:
oControllers
oPower supply
oSeat switch, etc
2. The “Outside” leg connects to:
oCrop sensor
oWheel angle sensor
oFeeder position sensor, etc
3

10
3. The “Steering Device” leg connects to the valve or motor which will steer
the combine.
oFor Trimble valves this will exit the cab with leg 2
oFor Outback, EZ-Steer, or other wheel-mount motors, this leg will
remain in the cab
A: In-cab components (Leg 1)
B: Crop sensor (Leg 2)
C: Wheel Angle sensor (Leg 2)
D2: EZ-Steer, OnTrac, and Outback connector -in-cab- (Leg 3)
D3: Trimble valve (Leg 3)
E: Feeder position sensor (Leg 2)
F: Speed sensor (Leg 2)
G: Feeder clutch (Leg 2)
Note: TrueSight wiring should be routed along existing hydraulic or
electric lines when available to reduce the chance of interference from moving
parts. Use the provided zip ties to secure the wiring in safe locations before
operating the machine.

When given an instruction for a connector with a number beginning
with “Y” (e.g. Y345) this refers to a Headsight connector. If the instructions
say to “connect Y123 and Y234 inline” this means you will disconnect the
OEM connector indicated, connecting Headsight connectors Y123 and Y234
to the mating connectors indicated.
2.1.2 Access panel
1. Locate and unfasten the cab access
panel.
oLocated above the right front
wheel at rear of cab.
2. You will most likely have to enlarge
this access hole.
3. Route “outside” part(s) the main
TrueSight harness through access
panel.
oStart with the harness in the cab
in right-rear corner
oFeed all ‘outside’ connectors (as
designated above) out through
access panel.
oRoute wiring through hole
created above.
4. Route Leg 2 of the harness across
under the cab as shown.
5. Route Leg 3 of the harness as necessary to the valve system or wheel
motor.
6. Install grommet around wiring
7. Refasten access panel.
2.1.3 Feeder clutch
