Vehicle Sync

 Product within Trimble’s Connected Farm™  Real time wireless data transmission between multiple vehicles  Vehicle requirements:  FmX ® integrated display with Vehicle Sync unlock  DCM-300 modem  Share:  guidance lines  coverage data  point/area/line features  vehicle icons and data  No longer need USB drive to move data between units  Improves operational efficiency and accuracy with up-to- date information shared real-time

Features  Information Sharing  Coverage mapping value  Tru Count Clutches  Harvested Area  Guidance lines  Except Freeform  Obstacles  Point/Line/Area  Vehicle Icons  Avoidance  Virtual Tank Levels  Instant Yield and Moisture  As-Applied Data

7.0 Updates  The newest features allow operators to: –View virtual tank levels of nearby devices that are planting or applying product. –Share instant yield, instant moisture, and combined coverage layers for yield and moisture with different displays that are in the same field. –Share “as-applied” coverage layers between displays for vehicles that are conducting the same event with the same material.

7.0 Updates Cont. –Coverage layer is now a viewable layer only and the vehicle's coverage is displayed on this layer. –View coverage data from multiple vehicles in the same field that are performing different operations without affecting row shutoff. –View a combined coverage map with a legend of multiple vehicles in the same field to quickly pinpoint each vehicle's covered area.
