Autosteer parameters

Autosteer parameters

Default autosteer parameters should perform adequately for most normal field operations. However, in some situations, it may be necessary to adjust the steering performance to consider field conditions, implement selection, traveling speed, etc.

The Autosteer Adjust dialogue allows you to adjust the vehicle steering performance to match these changing conditions. You can change the response of the selected item by using the slider bar.

Motor Aggressiveness - Adjusts how aggressively the MDU motor turns the steering wheel (this option is available for vehicle profiles that use a Mechanical Drive Unit).

Steering Freeplay - Compensates for free play in the vehicle’s steering. Accounting for free play is most important at high speed. Too much freeplay compensation leads to excessive steering wheel movement, especially at low speed.

Steering Response -  Adjusts for oscillations of the vehicle when it is on the desired path.

Heading Aggressiveness - Adjusts how aggressively the vehicle reacts to changes in the vehicles heading.

Cross Track Error - Adjusts how aggressively the vehicle reacts to changes in cross-track error.

Line Acquisition - Adjusts how aggressively the vehicle steers onto the desired steering path (A/B line). The goal is to adjust the ECU-S1 autosteer to take the shortest route without excessively sharp or sudden movements of the vehicle.

Reverse Response - Adjusts steering aggressiveness when the vehicle is traveling in reverse.
