Safety Notices

CAUTION: Hydraulic equipment should be on safety stops, hydraulic pressure relieved with machines systems turned off and all machine motion stopped before starting work. CAUTION: Be sure to wear proper eye protection when using any power tools, such as when drilling any mounting holes. IMPORTANT: Check behind vehicle and implement panels for any holes, wiring or controls that could be damaged when drilling any holes. IMPORTANT: Disconnect the Display, DirectCommand components and any speed sensors from electrical system when welding on equipment or jump starting unit to prevent component damage due to power surges or excessive current. IMPORTANT: If using a non Ag Leader GPS receiver, make sure to install a Null Modem Cable, included in the Display Kit, to prevent damage to the Display or GPS receiver. IMPORTANT: Use Dielectric grease to coat the seals and terminals of each connector that will be exposed to weather or chemicals as you plug them in. NOTE: Be sure to follow the alignment keys on the plugs and the receptacles carefully. Do not use excessive force when mating connectors.



Installing the Display

Parts required for procedure: (1) Ag Leader® Integra Display PN: 4002000

or (1) EDGE Display PN: 4001500

or (1) InSight Display PN: 4001000 From Switch Box Kit (Optional) (1) Switch Box Hardware Kit PN: 2001352-1 (1) Switch Box Bracket PN: 4001657

Step-by-Step instructions for

installing the Display

1. Place the display face down on a flat surface. If a 10-boom Switch Box will be used, place the metal switch box bracket over the four mounting holes on the back of the display, and then place the monitor mounting bracket on top of the switchbox bracket. If the Switch box will not be used, place the monitor-mounting bracket directly on the display.

NOTE: The Switchbox may also be mounted independently of the Display with the Angle Brackets included in the Switch Box hardware kit.

2. Insert one Phillips Pan Head Screw with lock washer in each of the

four holes and tighten firmly.

Module. 5. Connect the green 12-pin Deutsch plug into the receptacle marked

SWITCH A on the Auxiliary Input Module. 6. Connect the brown 12-pin Deutsch plug into the receptacle marked

SWITCH B on the Auxiliary Input Module. NOTE: Steps 7-9 are for installing a Remote Master Toggle Switch. 7. Mount the Remote Master Toggle Switch, PN: 4000730 in a

convenient location for the operator. 8. Route the opposite end of the cable towards the Auxiliary Input Module

and connect the green 12-pin Deutsch plug into the receptacle marked SWITCH A on the Auxiliary Input Module.

9. Use the gray 12-pin Deutsch Dust plug included in the Auxiliary Input

Module Kit to seal the receptacle marked SWITCH B on the Auxiliary Input Module.



Installing the Spinner Spreader Control Module

Parts required for procedure: From 3 Channel Spinner Spreader Control Module Kit (1) Spinner Spreader Control Module PN: 4000396 (1) Hardware Kit – Large Module PN: 2001354-1 Optional Items Purchased Separately (1) Mounting Kit – Large Module Plate PN: 2001358
