2.2 John Deere GS3 Troubleshooting Task Controller Setup GS3 Trouchshooting 2 Clearing the Object Pool If switching implement configurations (dimensions, sections, application layers) or the same ECU type on different machines, it is necessary to clear the internal memory in the display. To do this, perform the following steps. This will not remove any settings from the implement and no values, calibrations or user preferences will be lost. After this is completed cycle power on the display. Make sure all changes are done before turning off the display. Documentation Boxes Grayed Out If documentation boxes are grayed out, do the following: 1. Insert USB stick and export the data. 2. Clear the object pool following the steps above. 3. Verify that the implement is not in work. (make sure the master switch is off) 4. Create new Client, Farm, Field, Task in the GS3 page 1/6. 5. Create a new product and verify that the units (lbs/ac, gal/ac, tons/ ac.) in the GS3 page 5/6 match your controlling units. 6. If using prescriptions, verify that they are in the proper GS3 format. Insert USB and import the information. Go through the entire GS3 setup to select your prescription. 11

Task Controller Setup CNH Operating Configuration Setup 5 4.2 Pro700 & IntelliView IV Troubleshooting (v. 26-28) If switching implement configurations (dimensions, sections, application layers) or the same ECU type on different machines, it is necessary to clear the internal memory in the display. To do this, perform the following steps Deleting the object pool: 1. In the Main menu, select Diagnostics 2. Select the VT tab 3. Select the NVM tab 4. Here, multiple object pools are saved and stored. You can select which one to delete by pressing Next Folder 5. Select delete folder at the top right to delete the selected object pool or the delete icon in the middle right to delete all. This will not remove any settings from the implement and no values, calibrations or user preferences will be lost. If the display does not map, verify the TC steps above are completed and that all the boxes that should be grayed out are. Verify map legends, prescriptions style, data style, data type, and zoom are set correctly Make sure that prescriptions and management files are in ISOXML format (a single Taskdata folder containing at least a Taskdata xml file) on the USB stick. A USB must be in the display for TC to function. You may also have a.cn1 folder in addition to the Taskdata folder. A blank USB may be used and the display will auto create the Taskdata folder. It is recommended to include Product Names associated with Tasks and Prescriptions as there are no parameters in the Pro700 to identify this. Overlap and Boundary control will each trigger the section control icon in the VT. NOTE: The OEM software versions displayed in this document may not be the most current. Please confirm that you have the latest display and ECU firmware. 19
5 Task Controller Setup CNH Operating Configuration Setup 5 Task Controller Setup for the Case IH Pro700 & NH IntelliView IV (v.30) 5.1 Pro700 & IntelliView IV Operating Configuration Setup Description 1 The first step is to verify that the display has the necessary components for Task Controller to function.
