Advantages

• More consistent field coverage — Autosteering helps reduce overlaps and missed areas.
• Guidance at low speeds — Operation from 0.1 km/h supports slow tasks such as transplanting.
• Routes suited to the terrain — Curved lines, boundary management and slope compensation support fields with varying geometries.
• Compatible implement management — Prescription maps, TC-GEO and TC-SC support the management of compatible ISOBUS implements.
• Data continuity across tractors — Hi-FMS shares guidance lines and retains the history of field operations.

How it works

1. Check machines and implements Check tractor and implement compatibility for the planned operation.
2. Check positioning and corrections Define the GNSS configuration and check correction availability. For Hi-RTP, check local coverage and the L-band option.
3. Choose the guidance line Select AB, A+, curved lines or dedicated routes. Consider field geometry, boundaries, headlands and the operation.
4. Manage work and data Use real-time monitoring. Manage ISOBUS functions for compatible implements. Use Hi-FMS to share lines and retain the operation history.

Applications

• Straight-line operations — AB and A+ lines organise parallel passes and maintain regular spacing.
• Guided transplanting — Dedicated lines and operation from 0.1 km/h support low-speed tasks.
• Guided harrowing — Dedicated routes organise harrowing paths across the field.
• Irregular fields — Curved lines, boundaries, headlands and slope compensation support varying field geometries and terrain.
• Prescription-based application — Prescription maps and TC-GEO and TC-SC functions support the management of compatible ISOBUS implements.
• Fleet management — Hi-FMS centralises farm data, shares lines across tractors and retains the history of field operations.

FAQ

What performance is stated for FARMSTAR-F3?
Stated specifications are ±2.5 cm pass-to-pass accuracy and a general operating speed range of 0.1–30 km/h. This speed range is not specific to each operation. Check the GNSS configuration and correction availability before use.

Is an angle sensor required?
No. FARMSTAR-F3 provides guidance without an angle sensor. Tractor compatibility still needs to be checked.

Can I use it with any implement?
Implement compatibility must be checked. The system supports control of compatible ISOBUS implements, with prescription maps and TC-GEO and TC-SC functions.

Which guidance lines can I choose?
AB, A+ and curved lines are available, along with dedicated lines for transplanting and harrowing. The choice depends on the field and the operation. Functions for boundaries, headlands and slope compensation are also provided.

What should I check before using Hi-RTP PPP?
Check local Hi-RTP service coverage and the L-band option. Also check the GNSS configuration and correction availability.

How are lines shared across multiple tractors?
Hi-FMS enables lines to be shared across tractors. It centralises farm data and retains the history of field operations.
