INTEGRATED INTELLIGENCE All sprayer functions are controlled with the MULLER Elektronik multifunction computer. These computers provide precision farming capability through an intuitive and user friendly interface. MULLER BASIC-Terminal The Muller BASIC terminal is the ideal option for the operator who would like more sophistication on their machine. The multifunction computer provides a simple control layout for the operation of all sprayer functions and includes the following features: = 15cm anti reflective display with 10 softkeys. = Muller CAN-bus system with simple single plug connection between tractor and sprayer. = Multifunction joystick giving the operator greater control over important functions while working the sprayer, allowing them to be carried out easily and quickly. = Manual boom section switching up to 9 spray sections. = Sequential or nest spray section switching. = Full boom hydraulic control with manual boom lift, tilt and folding functions from either terminal or multifunction grip. = Automatic or manual spray rate regulation. = Current speed and application rate and tank volume constantly displayed. = Daily and total counters. MULLER COMFORT-Terminal Available as an upgrade, the Muller COMFORT controller combines all the features of the BASIC controller into an ISOBUS terminal. Additional features include: = Large VGA (640 x 480 pixel) colour, anti-reflective display with 12 soft keys. = Split display main and header. = ISOBUS 11783 system & terminal. = USB data transfer. OPTIONS AVAILABLE: DISTANCE-Control Automatically maintains the pre set distance from the boom to the target surface. A combination of boom lift and tilt is used to control the boom position. Automatic boom raise at headlands. TANK-Control Electronic Tank Sight Gauge Exact gauge of the tank contents. Residual amount in the tank is taken into account when filling. Can be linked into Knight Finger Tip Control to shut off filling at a desired amount. Tank content automatically displayed on the Muller screen in the cab. SECTION-Control Enables the automatic switching on and off of the spray sections, any time a sprayer section moves into a previously applied area it is automatically switched off. Sprayed area and overlaps displayed. Field boundary, boom sections automatically switched off outside working area. TRACK-Leader II D-GPS, parallel or contour guidance. 2D or 3D and birds eye view Adjustable zoom of the field Headland guidance Obstacle warning Storing and continuing the navigation at any time.

The IVC developed by <strong>Knight</strong> combines engine management,<br />

steering control and transmission control into one easy to use,<br />

intuitive terminal. The full colour digital display is clearly<br />

visible, with soft-touch buttons on either side of the screen to<br />
