35 CHAPTER 4STEERING HOME SCREEN CHAPTER 4 FIGURE 1. Home Screen Antenna Shift (Tractors Only) - The Antenna Shift settings allows the user to shift the center point of the antenna relative to the machine s center point. Negative values indicate that the antenna is located to the left of the machine s center point. NOTE: The Antenna Shift value can be verified by marking the hitch pin of the tractor with a flag, setting a guidance line, turning the machine around 180 degrees, and stopping on the guidance line with the hitch pin in the same location. If the hitch pin does not line up with the flag, divide the number of inches [cm] by two and enter that value into the Antenna Shift field. If the hitch pin falls to the right of the flag, enter a positive Antenna Shift value. If the hitch pin falls to the left of the flag, enter a negative value. Sensitivity - The Sensitivity value determines how aggressively the machine will attempt to remain on the guidance line. The Sensitivity value is used to fine-tune the RS1 system. Values range between NOTE: If the machine is slow to react after a steering adjustment, increase the Sensitivity setting in increments of 10. If the machine makes an adjustment too quickly, decrease the Sensitivity value. Line Acquire - The Line Acquire value determines the distance away from the set guidance line at which the machine will make adjustments to come closer to the guidance line. If a low value is entered, the machine will make an adjustment at a greater distance as it drifts away from the guidance line. If a high value is entered, the machine is quicker to adjust the steering while it is still close to the guidance line. Values range between NOTE: A low value will minimize the risk of over-correction, but it could take longer to acquire the guidance line. A high value increases the risk of over-correction, but the machine is quicker to re-acquire the guidance line. If the machine takes too long to acquire the guidance line, increase the Line Acquire value in increments of 10. If the machine over-shoots the guidance line, decrease the value in increments of 10. P/N Rev. A 31

36 CHAPTER 4 Response Speed - The Response Speed determines how quickly the machine s wheels will turn when prompted. If the Response Speed is too high, the wheel movement may become jittery. If the Response Speed is too low, the wheel movement may wander lazily. Values range between NOTE: If steering becomes jittery, lower the Response Speed value in increments of 10. If steering does not become jittery, the Response Speed value may be increased in increments of 10 until the desired Response Speed is reached. 32 Raven RS1 Guidance and Steering Calibration & Operation Manual

42 CHAPTER 6 Position Gain - Determines how aggressively the RS1 system responds to an off-track error. A higher Position Gain value results in a more aggressive response to an off-track error, while a lower value indicates a less aggressive response. Heading Gain - Determines how aggressively the RS1 system responds to a heading error. A higher Heading Gain value results in a more aggressive response to a heading error, while a lower value indicates a less aggressive response. Yaw Rate Gain - Determines the impact of the yaw rate on tracking performance. A higher Yaw Rate Gain value results in a more aggressive response to yaw rate, while a lower value results in a less aggressive response. Integral Gain - This value corrects long-term errors in the wheel control. If the system is not achieving the desired wheel angle during operation, the system will re-direct the wheels to the desired set point. This value is generally at or near 0. Enable X-Treme Terrain Mode - This setting allows adjustment for steering performance on terraces. FIGURE 3. Advanced Tuning Page 2 Max G-Force - Limits the centripetal force experienced by the operator during a turn. A higher value allows to the machine to perform sharper turns, while a lower value limit s the machine s turning radius. FIGURE 4. Advanced Wheel Tuning Screen Proportional Gain - Determines the rate of the wheel response. Increasing the Proportional Gain value causes the wheel response to be faster, but can result in the machine overshooting the target wheel angle position or can cause the wheels to take a longer time to stabilize. 38 Raven RS1 Guidance and Steering Calibration & Operation Manual

43 STEERING SETUP Integral Gain - This value corrects long-term errors in the steering control loop. This setting should be adjusted by qualified technicians only. Raven Industries does not recommend that anyone other than a qualified technician make changes to this setting. Derivative Gain - The Derivative Gain value limits the wheel response time. A larger Derivative Gain value will reduce the tendency to overshoot the target wheel angle position, but will limit the wheel speed. Left System Gain - Compensates for any bias or non-linearity in the steering valve while the machine is turning to the left. Right System Gain - Compensates for any bias or non-linearity in the steering valve while the machine is turning to the right. WHEEL CONTROL SETTINGS FIGURE 5.
