23-1 Software Update

New Features and Improvements

AutoTrac™ Implement Guidance Compatibility with N500C Seeders:

G5 23-1 software along with N500C Model Year 2023 software updates will now support AutoTrac™ Implement Guidance.

AutoPath™ Compatibility with Hagie Model Year 2014-2017:

Model year 2014-2017 Hagie self-propelled sprayers require a machine software update prior to using AutoPath™.

AutoPath™ (rows) Improved/Reduced Planning Time

• Planning queue optimization leading to reduced path planning time

AutoPath™ (rows) Generation Method Persist for Field Planning

• Users can now select generation method to persist field to field instead of always defaulting to Rows – optimize for fewest paths when changing fields
• Added Persist toggle to the Edit AutoPath™ Page

AutoPath™ (rows) Show Direction of Source Travel

• Added Source Directions Toggle to Map Details Page to show travel direction of the source pass (green)

Large Square Baler

G5 displays with 23-1 software can detect and document with attached Large Square Balers. Current compatibility will include the 1 Series Large Square Balers. Customers can now quickly set up their Large Square Baler equipment and have access on their display to numerous important data points about their baled crop. The data that is collected can be synced or manually uploaded to the customers Operations Center account.

Equipment Manager – LSB

Starting with 23-1 software, customers can detect and easily set up their Large Square Baler equipment within Equipment Manager and Work Setup. Customers can assign crop types, varieties, and desired harvest units to the job in the field.

Documentation - LSB

Customers will now be able to accumulate and analyze data for their Large Square Baler operation with their G5 display operating on 23-1 software. In each field the customer can identify how many bales they have made, the total weight of crop baled, and the average moisture readings for that crop, among many more attributes. Similar totals will also be available at the singular bale level displaying individual bale length, flake counts, average moisture, and more.

ISOBUS TaskController

ISOBUS Implements with non-linear booms will be supported starting with the 23-1 release. As soon as the implement ISOBUS TaskController connects through the CANBUS, communicating a Non-linear boom, the G5 Display will show this non-linear boom structure. This structure can be seen in the mapping screen as well as within the Implement Profile.

*Non-linear boom is limited to five ranks currently.

Data Sync Setup

With the introduction of Data Sync Setup customers will be able to automatically share data between all their machines and the Operations Center. Setup Data such as new Boundaries, Guidance Tracks, Products, or Flags can be automatically shared and synced with all enabled machines within seconds. Data Sync Setup can be enabled or disabled for selected machines within the Operations Center.

Data cleanup activities are highly recommended before syncing machines. What is listed as ‘available’ data entities will synchronize to machines when enabled. Any data on enabled machines that differ from the synchronized Operations Center list will be removed from the machines and backed up under ‘Archive’ in Operations Center.

Disable Deletes with Data Sync Setup

To help reduce the accidental deletion of critical setup data, enabled displays will be unable to delete setup file types from the display. This action can still be performed in the Operations Center.

Variety Assignment for ISOBUS planters

Currently only Deere planters can assign varieties per row and non-Deere planters can only document a single variety. Variety assignment per row will now be available for non-Deere ISOBUS planting implements.

Software Manager Changes to support License Files and Features

Software Manager has two tabs to support G5 Licenses which will support the activation of advanced features on the display. A License Tab will show the packages that are applied to the display and the Features Tab will show what Features are enabled. The features within the license depend on the type of license that is purchased. Getting a License onto a display can be done either Over the Air or USB update using File Manager. The Connected Status shown in Licenses Page indicate when the display has an active internet connection and can accept licenses over the air.

Automatically Select the Right AutoPath™ in the Display with Work Planner

Beginning of the year Work Planner integrated AutoPath™.

Whenever an AutoPath™ guidance plan is available in Operations Center, Work Planner shows this in the “Guidance” column in the work list, attaches it automatically to the work plan, and sends it to the John Deere G5 display. Sending setup files to transfer AutoPath™ guidance plans is no longer necessary with using Work Planner but still can be used if needed.

The latest G5 software release makes it easier for operators to begin field work. With G5 software version 23-1, AutoPath™ tracks sent to the display as part of a work plan are automatically selected and populated in the display when accepting work plans.

Operators no longer need to manually select the AutoPath™ guidance track to start field work. Selecting the wrong AutoPath™ is prevented, and field work can be started faster.

Up-To-Date Work Lists Across the Entire Fleet with Automatic Removal of Completed Work Plans

Work plans will automatically be removed from all connected displays after they have been completed, no matter which machine completes the work. Work plans manually completed or deleted in the Operations Center will be removed as well.

StarFire™ 7000 and StarFire ™ 7000 Integrated Receiver

Additional constellations with mRTK Access

mRTK access users will now have the ability to utilize all 5 constellations that the StarFire™ 7000 can use. These include GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou, and QZSS. This will give better performance in terms of pull in time, accuracy, availability, and integrity.

TCM Quality Indicator on StarFire™ Health Page

The StarFire™ Health page now contains a new indicator for the TCM calibration quality. The background TCM Calibration will compare the current calibration to the background calibration. The comparison will be displayed as a color indicator on the StarFire™ Health page. This indicator will only work once the TCM has been calibrated by either the 2-point method, or the advanced TCM calibration. Once calibrated, the operator will need to drive multiple parallel passes (field operation) before the indicator will populate a color identifying if the calibration is good, marginal, or poor.

• Grey – Initializing
• Green – OK Calibration
• Yellow – Marginal Calibration
• Red – Poor TCM Calibration, TCM Calibration Issue, or TCM not calibrated
