Cirrus trailed cultivator drill

One language, many benefits!
Each ISOBUS-enabled machine from AMAZONE comes with the latest technology and almost unlimited possibilities. It makes no difference whether you use an operator terminal from AMAZONE or an ISOBUS terminal fitted directly in the tractor. ISOBUS is an internationally recognised standard for communication between the operator terminal, tractors and connected implements on the one hand and Farm Management Information Systems on the other.

Operation with a wide variety of ISOBUS terminals

Which means that ISOBUS enables you to take control of all your ISOBUS compatible equipment. You only have to connect the machine to the respective ISOBUS terminal and the usual operator interface appears on the monitor in your tractor cab.

Benefits of ISOBUS at a glance:

• International standardisation provides uniform interfaces and data formats, meaning that compatibility with other manufacturers is ensured
• Plug and Play between the machine, tractor and other ISOBUS equipment

AMAZONE machinery and operator terminals offer a range of functions which are very easy and safe to operate.

The benefits:

• Highest compatibility and safety function of your ISOBUS equipment 
• No additional modules on the machine side. All ISOBUS machines from AMAZONE come ready-equipped with the necessary ISOBUS functions as standard 
• Practice-oriented machine software and logical menu structure 
• MiniView display with all AMAZONE terminals and additional ISOBUS terminals. See, for example, the machine data in the map view. 
• Possibility of operating the machine via the tractor terminal or a twin terminal solution 
• Flexible assignment of the map and machine view between the tractor terminal and the operator terminal 
• Unique operation concept. Freely-configurable displays and individual user interfaces for each driver 
• Integrated Task Controller data logger function

Advantages of the AMAZONE machine software:

• User-oriented and intuitive
• Tailored to the machine
• Function scope above and beyond the ISOBUS standard

GPS-Switch for all ISOBUS machinery

With GPS-Switch, AMAZONE offers GPS-based, fully automatic, part-width section control for all AMAZONE operator terminals and ISOBUS-compatible fertiliser spreaders, crop protection sprayers or seed drills.

GPS-Switch basic 

• Automatic part-width section control of up to 16 part-width sections 
• Creation of virtual headlands 
• Optional with AmaTron 4

GPS-Switch pro (as an extension of GPS-Switch basic) 

• Automatic part-width section control of up to 128 part-width sections 
• Marking obstacles (e.g. water holes, pylons) 
• Auto-zoom when approaching the headland 
• Optional with AmaTron 4

Automatic switching on and off of the Cirrus

If the operating terminal has Section Control, such as GPS-Switch part-width section control from AMAZONE, the part-width sections can be automatically switched on and off in relation to the GPS position. 

MultiBoom – even more precise

For the Cirrus-CC, the seed and the fertiliser are metered by two different metering units and applied at two different delivery points using the Double-Shoot method. Since the FerTeC coulter runs in front of the roller and the sowing coulter behind the roller on the Cirrus-CC, GPS-Switch must switch the two metering units with a time offset, so that the fertiliser is placed at exactly the same point on the headland as the seed. This time-shifted control of several metering units can be achieved using the new MultiBoom control.

Accurate placement of the seed.

To avoid the over and under sowing in critical areas that often occurs in practice, precise sowing is very important. The remedy for the accurate placement is offered by the half-side control which reduces the relevant working width to half so that, especially in short-work and on the headland, a significant saving is achieved. The two halves of the drill each correspond to one controllable part-width section.

1. With half-side shut-off
2. The seeder automatically switches off precisely
3. Virtual headland
4. Field application maps for different seed rates are also possible
5. Worked area

Switch time optimisation – GPS-Switch with AutoPoint

• Automatic determination of the conveying time of seed flow from the metering unit to the sowing coulter 
• Minimisation of misses and overlaps for good field hygiene 
• Minimisation of the disease pressure results in fewer plant protection measures and simultaneous cost reduction

All standard ISOBUS terminals from AMAZONE can collect and save machine and site-specific data using Task Controller. Part-area, site-specific operation via the processing of application maps in a Shape file format and ISO-XML format is also possible.

• Easy creation, loading and processing of jobs
• Start a new task straight away and decide later whether the data is saved or not
• Import and export of jobs in the ISO-XML format
• Job summary via PDF export
• Intuitive system for processing application maps in the Shape file format and ISO-XML format
• Automatic part-area, site specific regulation of the application rate
• Indication of inactive field boundaries and automatic field detection when approaching the area
• Optimum crop management via needs-based application
• Standard with AmaTron 4 and AmaPad 2

The GPS-Track parallel guidance greatly helps with orientation in the field, especially on grassland or in areas without tramlines. 

• With a virtual light bar in the status bar 
• Automatic tramline control via GPS for seed drills 
• Various track modes such as A-B lines or contour following 
• Optional with AmaTron 4

Software licence for displaying a camera image on AmaTron 4. 

• Automatic display of the camera image on AmaTron 4 when reversing

Simple and convenient operation, as intuitive as your tablet: Why not handle a terminal as intuitively as a tablet or a smartphone? With this in mind, AMAZONE developed the highly intuitive and operator-friendly AmaTron 4 which offers a noticeably smoother operation, especially when it comes to job management. AmaTron 4, with its 8" multi-touch colour display, meets the highest demands and offers you maximum user-friendliness. Via a finger swipe or the App carousel, one quickly navigates from application to application and to the clearly and simply structured operator terminal. The practical MiniView, a freely configurable status bar and an integrated light bar make the AmaTron 4 exceptionally easy and convenient to use.

Benefits of AmaTron 4:

• Automatic full screen mode when not in use
• Automatic control button display via a proximity sensor
• Practical MiniView concept
• Actuation via multi-touch colour display or soft keys
• Especially intuitive and user-friendly
• Field-related documentation
• Practice oriented and intelligent menu navigation
• Practical quick-start menu with import and export of job data, help windows, day/night mode and the AUX-N assignment
• One camera input and automatic reversing detection
• Free test phase for all chargeable licences
• AmaTron Connect – for optional entry into the digital age

Equipped as standard with: 

• GPS-Maps&Doc

Thanks to the AUX-N feature, you can operate multiple functions on the machine via AmaPilot⁺ or any other ISOBUS multi-function joysticks.

The benefits of AmaPilot⁺:

• Almost all the functions directly to hand via the 3 levels
