Topcon control (ISOBUS)
It's ISOBUS!
Smart. Accurate. Control.
This SAM is based on industry proven technology and decades of international experience.
The Topcon offers fast, accurate response in a user-friendly system. It gives precision for spreading all types of fertiliser, manure and animal waste. This technology means the correct application rate is applied, regardless of changes in forward speed or changes in your product density. You simply key in a couple of inputs and you are away!
This technology is simple, intuitive and very very smart. The system is ISOBUS so it can function with any compliant tractor console. Using your tractors existing screen and smarts.
Or go for a separate, generous, 8 1/2" colour touch screen display.
Integrated load cells use the weight of product to constantly check your spread rate accuracy.
Your options for set-up:
A) Topcon control - for ISOBUS tractor (including load cells and electric back door)
This measures the weight of product in the spreader, the floor speed is then automatically adjusted to achieve correct application rates. This advanced control means extra precision. You are getting automatic rate calibration. Advanced mapping proof of placement is dependant on the brand of display in your tractor. This set-up operates with both dynamic and static rate control. Spreader functions like spinner speed and border control are all monitored and operated through the touch screen.
B) Topcon control - for non-ISOBUS tractor (with load cells, display, aerial and electric back door)
We include a separate generous, 8.5” colour touch screen display and a GPS aerial for proof of placement, light bar and field mapping of your jobs. Record all details for improved traceability and record keeping. This set-up operates with both dynamic and static rate control. This is ISOBUS ready.
90 l/min of oil flow from your tractor is preferred.
This brochure has a simple tick chart explaining what is included with each set-up.

-
Large 8 1/2" screen
A generous 8 1/2” colour touch screen display, with anti-glare, can be provided for the cab of your tractor.
-
Spinner speed monitoring
Gives you great visibility over what is happening with your spinners. Your screen shows whether spinners are stationary or operating, and at what speeds.
-
Mapping
The mapping clearly shows where you have been in the field. Light bar guidance keeps you on track using AB lines. These allow you to optimise your coverage.
-
Electric back door
An electric back door replaces the manual winding of the back door jack. The height is simple controlled from your screen. Also handy for closing your back door when you are driving down the race so you are not losing any product out the back.
-
Border control
Reduces spinner speed on the left hand disk which decreases spread width. This is helpful for spreading beside borders and waterways.
-
Proof of placement
For better reporting and compliance, your proof of placement data is available to download. This gives accurate coverage and peace of mind.
Optional extras
- GPS aerial for proof of placement
- X25 Touch screen
GPS aerial for proof of placement
Adding a GPS aerial ensures you have proof of placement. It also provides light bar and field mapping of your jobs. This means you can record all relevant details for improved traceability and your record keeping.
You may be able to use your existing GPS aerial if you have one.
X25 Touch screen
If your tractor is ISOBUS you may choose to run the computer control system through your existing cab screen.
Alternatively you can purchase the 8 1/2" anti-glare colour touch screen. This generous size makes controls easy to see and operate on-the-go.
