![]() ![]() Sounds wicked but ultimately you can, with a touch of a button, turn on or off individual nozzle control, turn compensation, pump speed, or solenoid spraying. Example: If you do your headlands and don't have the "overlap" function turned on there will be no pinpoint coverage map and when you A-B the field the nozzles will respect the soft sections which must have flow supplied from the hard section. This pinpont coverage map is what determines when and where individual nozzles will spray/no spray. When you turn on the overlap control the pinpoint begins painting it's own coverage map. The individual nozzle shutoff is neither a soft or hard section. A bit confusing but the concept is you can load a boundary in the rate controller and the soft sections will respect them. ![]() No matter what happens the soft section is the ultimate controller, if the solenoid isnt on the nothing sprays. And "soft section" control being mapped on the pinpoint display. The "hard section" control on the rate controller. The overlap/boundary/section control has two parts. The hard sections (boom valves ) could be physically removed from the sprayer. They could be the same as the hard sections or different. ![]() Soft- sections that are user defined groups of solenoids. Hard- traditional boom valves stopping source flow. You have two types of sections on the sprayer. What nozzle spacing are you on? Would it work on 15" nozzles spacing? Also, how do you shut off say an outside section when folded to 90 ft, do you shut off each nozzle or have an option to shut off a "bank" on nozzles? How does swath control work? Do you need boundaries? What happens when coming into a waterway you outlined but one side of your boom is shutting off entering close to waterway while the other side of boom is spraying does the side off try to turn back on unless you shut that "boom section" off? Components are much simpler but your old aim/sharpshooter modules get to collect dust, or you can sell them to somone building an inject fertilizer system. The pinpoint replaces the pressure, main, slave modules with a one piece flowbus on the back of the machine. He would need sharpshooter to get the solenoids but thats all he would use. You would probably have to get sharpshooter and that. Can't say I've ever worked with a better group of guys. Just wait for the sharpshooting pinpoint to come out. You would be overlapping components in the purchase. I would not suggest buying a sharpshooter system for your Deere and then adding the pinpoint. However the manual is clearly wrote to explain the use of the system as "sharpshooter" control rather than aim. To my knowledge the first systems have all gone on case aim machines. ![]() Will you be able to retrofit this system on a Deere sprayer? After 12k acres this spring things are running very smoothe. Took a day of tuning to get the fmx750 to play nice with it. Like any control system you have to get a feel for it. You have no limitations with the system, turn compensation, individual nozzle sectioning, live system diagnosis, flow mapping across the boom. System is incredible! The cost will not be much more than an aim system. Posted 10:52 (#2458250 - in reply to #2455463) Subject: Re: Capstan Ag PinpointĮverything out is preproduction.
