We have newer r's and have never used that it implement management system. Is it hard to setup and does it work very well?
The implement management system on the r's is much better than the original ones. With the original style like we have in an 8310 and an 8120 it can "learn" two sequences of events. With the improved version in our 8310R, many pairs of sequences can be saved for future use with a name. For example I have one named Corn Planting. I bring it up each morning and use it with the planter.
I could include the hydraulic function but I prefer to do that myself. I just have my sequence set up to work with the transmission and diff lock etc.
Several sequence [aors can be stored in memory. They can can "learn" from your actions or be set manually. Once they are programmed in they can be fine tuned to change when certain functions occur. This was not possible with the original style. About all I use the IMS system for on the older tractors is for engaging the diff lock. Although it can be programmed to control hydraulic functions, it is difficult to get it timed to start/stop exactly when and where you want it. If it is off a bit you cannot go in and change the distance slightly like you can on the newer versions. |
