Subject: GS2 2600 Machine Icon Backwards

I updated my iTC globe and 2600 display a few weeks back and then installed them on my Polaris Ranger to map some line and everything was peachy.  Put the same hardware in my 8100 for planting and the machine icon was backwards and seemed to be confused on which direction it was heading.  When I hit resume on an AB line it tried to turn a 180 on me.  I checked the globe direction and machine direction and they are correct.  Any idea what's going on?

my sprayer occasionally does that. Sorry i can't be more specific, but i think in the guidance key, there is a picture of a tractor. it has an arrow pointing either frontwards or backwards,touch that picture and it will reverse the direction arrow...if it's not in that window just look around till you see it.

When you power up an ITC it tries to determine which direction it is mounted on the machine. As soon as it can see enough satellites for it to detect motion it will determine which direction it is moving and decide that is forward. Therefore if your first movement on startup is in reverse, it will assume it is mounted in reverse. This is a major PITA if you always park in a shed and back out for example. To me it would make more sense to put this in the machine setup where you enter the height and axle measurements. As BBfarm says there is button that is usually on the guidance page or the auto steer setup that you can change this.

That is a big problem that was suppose to be fixed I just had mine updated as well and the first corner I backed into and took off it showed me pushing the implement. I went in and tried to manualy change direction and it wouldn't let me had to drive around tell it changed.

Ours does that on occasion. Our local support told us to drive a couple figure eights and that should correct it. Never worked for us but you never know. It generally corrected it after I powered it down and unhooked the reciever and hooked it back up.
