Split Map

We are simplifying the process of displaying two primary map layers side by side on the G5 display. Customers no longer need to struggle with aligning two different map modules perfectly. By placing two maps next to each other, we provide significant value through enhanced visibility, improved comparison capabilities, and better decision-making support for farmers.

Pan and Zoom

With the pan and zoom feature, customers can navigate using their fingers, just as they do on their consumer devices. This user-friendly approach offers a more intuitive and interactive experience. Users can easily explore the map using natural hand movements such as swiping, pinching, and tapping. This method enhances user engagement and efficiency by facilitating smooth and dynamic interactions with the map. Additionally, it allows users to zoom in and out, pan across the map, and interact with specific points of interest, making the exploration process more enjoyable and accessible.

Zoom In: Pinch	X	X
Zoom In: Double Tap with One Finger	X	X
Swiping: Sideways	X
Swiping: Forward/Backward	X	X

Pass Visualization

Users can easily diagnose row issues by understanding the direction of previous passes. Additionally, when multiple vehicles are operating in the same field, operators can view each pass, facilitating better planning throughout the field.

Remote Display Control (RDC), an extension of Remote Display Access (RDA)

Remote Display Access (RDA) and Remote Display Control (RDC) are powerful tools designed to enhance visibility and control of machine displays from virtually anywhere.

RDA enables remote users to view a machine’s display in real time, providing valuable insights into operations without needing to be physically present.
RDC goes a step further by allowing users to interact directly with the display—adjusting settings, navigating pages, monitoring live updates, and performing real-time troubleshooting.
- NOTE: RDC is not meant for adjusting machine motion.

Whether you're in the office or on the move, you can manage displays seamlessly from your desktop or mobile device using the John Deere Operations Center.

Whether you're in the office or on the move, you can manage displays seamlessly from your desktop or mobile device using the John Deere Operations Center.

With RDC and RDA users can:

Train Operators: Help operators learn how to use the machine—no need to be in the cab.
Troubleshoot Faster: Solve issues without driving to the field.
Support from Anywhere: Technicians, salespeople, operators, and managers can all view and control displays remotely.

Note that RDC is not meant for adjusting machine motion. Currently, only G5 Universal displays on 25.3 software without platform applications installed support RDC sessions. Displays with platform apps, like CommandCenter displays, are not compatible currently. If a display supports RDC, the RDC toggle will appear in the Remote Display Access window after starting a session.

Here are the steps to enable RDC on a capable display:

Ensure remote users have the appropriate Access Level and Permissions.
Start RDA Session.
Request Control Session - If the display is capable of RDA, meaning it’s a G5 Universal, on 25.3 GenOS software and does not have platform apps installed, then RDC can be toggled on.
Approve Control Session remotely and on the display.
If the machine user touches the display the RDC session will revert back to an RDA session.

Flags

View of run page with flag options

Reduce damage to machines by flagging obstacles in the field such as tile inlets, posts, rocks, or other landmarks. Mark areas of the field with point, line, or rectangle area flags for follow up at a later time or for reference while operating equipment. A few examples are tile blow outs, weedy areas, rocks, and wet spots. Users can also flag guidance tracks and boundaries that require updates. Name each flag and assign a color to strengthen overall awareness of flag instances in the field. Each point, line, and area flag will appear on the map showing the respective icon in the selected color. Flags recorded on the display or created in Operations Center can be transferred using Setup Files, Work Plans, or Data Sync Setup.

In cab flag alerts on the display

Machine users can experience visual and audible tones when a flag intersects the current path of travel for a machine or implement. The display will notify the operator in the cab 20 seconds before approaching the flag and again 10 seconds prior. This applies when moving in forward and reverse. Flag Alerts are available on Gen 4 and G5 displays with 25.2 or newer Gen OS software. Setup must be completed in Operations Center.
