VT50 – Introduction
Pos: 1/CC -Iso bus/Ei nlei tung @ 9 \mod_1287407057879_6.doc@ 148605@ @1
1 Introduction
These operating instructions are intended as an introduction to the operation and
configuration of the VT50 Terminal. It is only with knowledge of these operating
instructions that accidental misuse of the terminal can be avoided and fault-free
operation ensured.
These operating instructions must be read and understood prior to assembly and
commissioning to prevent problems during operation. The company <company
name> accepts no liability for damage resulting from the failure to observe these
operating instructions.
1.1 About the VT50
The VT50 is an operation terminal for control of implements; it is available in two
versions: Basic and Comfort.
A list of the different components of these two versions can be found in chapter
7.3.
The following CCI.Apps are supplied with the VT50:
CCI.Cam (

VT50 – Safety
2 Safety
These operating instructions contain basic indications which must be observed
during configuration, operation and service. As such, it is absolutely essential to
read these instructions prior to configuration and operation.
Not only do the general safety indications listed in this "Safety" chapter have to be
observed but also the special safety instructions appearing in other chapters as
well.
2.1 Identification of indications in the operating instructions
The safety indications in these operating instructions are specially identified:
Warning - General Hazards!
This occupational safety symbol identifies general safety indications the non-
observance of which poses a danger for life and limb. Carefully observe the
indications regarding occupational safety and exert particular caution in these
cases.
Attention!
This attention symbol identifies all safety indications which refer to regulations,
directives or working procedures which it is essential to observe. Non-observance
can entail damage to, or the destruction of, the terminal as well as malfunctions.
Note
The note symbol highlights operation tips and other particularly useful information.

VT50 – Safety
2.2 Intended use
The terminal is exclusively intended for use on approved implements and devices
in agriculture. Any other installation or use of the terminal is not included within the
manufacturer's area of responsibility.
The manufacturer accepts no liability for any resulting personal injury or material
damage. Any risks for unintended use are borne solely by the user.
Observance of the operation and maintenance conditions stipulated by the
manufacturer also form part of intended use.
The accident prevention regulations in force, as well as other generally recognised
safety, industrial, medical and traffic laws must be observed. Unauthorised
modifications to the device exclude the manufacturer's liability.
2.3 Safety indications for the operator / user
• Do not remove any safety mechanisms or signs.
• Disconnect the power supply to the terminal during maintenance work or
when using a charging device on the battery of the towed/production
implement.
• Never perform maintenance work or repairs when the device is switched on.
• Disconnect the power supply to the terminal beforehand when welding on
the tractor or on an attached implement.
• Only use a soft cloth moistened with clean water or a small amount of glass
cleaning agent to clean the terminal.
• Use your fingertip to operate the keys. Avoid using your finger nails.
• If, after having read these operating instructions, there are sections which
you do not understand contact your dealer for clarification before using the
terminal.
• Carefully read and observe all safety instructions in the manual and the
safety labels on the device. Safety labels must always be in a proper legible
condition. Replace missing or damaged labels. Ensure that new device parts
are provided with the current safety labels. Spare labels can be obtained
from your authorised dealer.
• Learn how to use the terminal in accordance with regulations.
• Keep the terminal and accessories in good condition.

2.4 Safety indications for the installation of electrical devices
Modern farming implements use electronic components and parts the operation of
which can be compromised by electro-magnetic interference from other devices.
Such effects can endanger people if the following safety indications are not
observed.
In the event of retrofitting electric and electronic devices, and/or components, in an
implement with connection to the on-board network, the user must independently
verify whether the installation interferes with vehicle electronics or other
components. This is, in particular, applicable to the electronic interference of:
• Electronic hoisting gear control
• Front hoisting gear
• Power take off
• Engine and gears
It must be ensured in particular that the retrofitted electric and electronic
components comply with the EMC Directive 89/336/EC in its respectively valid
version and that they bear the CE marking.
In order to retrofit mobile communication systems (e.g. radio, telephone), it is
important to meet the following requirements:
• Only devices may be installed which are approved in accordance with valid
farming regulations (e.g. BZT (Federal Office for Approval in
Telecommunications) approval in Germany).
• The device must be properly installed.
• The operation of portable or mobile devices inside the vehicle is only
permitted using a connection to a properly installed external aerial.
• The transmitting part must be installed physically and separately from the
vehicle electronics.
• When fitting the aerial it must be ensured that the installation is correctly
executed with a good earth connection between the aerial and vehicle earth.
The implement manufacturer's installation instructions must also be used for the
wiring and installation as well as for the maximum permitted power consumption.

2.5 Safety indications for the ISB button (
→
Basic) and stop switch (
→
Comfort)
The connected implement can be made safe by pressing this button. In order to do
so, the implement must support the stop function.
Note
Under no circumstances does the ISB button/stop switch intervene in tractor
functions, i.e. neither power take off nor hydraulic functions are compromised.
Further information on this point can be obtained from the implement operating
instructions.

Basic)
If the terminal ISB button is pressed, a stop command is sent to the implement.
Hence in a danger situation the corresponding automatic measures can be
initiated.
Warning – Danger of injury by the implement whilst in operation!
Not all implements support the stop function. As a result, an implement may
continue to operate after the ISB button has been pressed. This can lead to
injuries.
• Please refer to the operating instructions of the implement to verify whether
the function is supported or not.
3.4.2 Stop switch (
→
Comfort)
If the terminal stop switch, which is designed as a palm button, is pressed, a stop
command is sent to the implement. Hence in a danger situation the corresponding
automatic measures can be initiated.
Warning – Danger of injury by the implement whilst in operation!
Not all implements support the stop function. As a result, an implement may
continue to operate after the stop switch has been pressed. This can lead to
injuries.
• Please refer to the operating instructions of the implement to verify whether
the function is supported or not.

Repeated quick pressing of the toggle button makes possible sequential toggling
between device operations and the individual apps that have been selected in the
user settings under "App toggling" (see chapter 5.3.1) for example from device
operation to CCI.TECU.
Note
With some implements, when changing from an active implement function
operations being performed will automatically switch off. For further information on
this point consult the implement operating instructions.
3.4.9 Home button
By pressing the button you change directly to the main menu. The apps which are
active at the time of changing remain active in the background.
Note

5 Operation
5.1 Switching on the terminal
Note
Before switching on the terminal for the first time, check that the connections on
the device are properly and correctly positioned.
• Switch on the terminal using the "ON/OFF" button on the casing at the
bottom left. Press the button for approx. 2 seconds.
5.2 Entering values
Values must be entered, changed or selected for the configuration and use of both
the terminal and the connected implements.
The values are modified by using the so-called input dialogues. These dialogues
are shown above the current active operating screen. After modification the input
dialogue is closed and the user returns to the operating screen.
