GPS Extended – Automatic Headland Turns

GPS Extended enhances the standard steering assistance with fully automatic GPS guidance. With cruise control enabled, the vehicle automatically turns at the end of a work pass, selects the next target row, and resumes work. The turning trajectory and target row are displayed in advance by the GPS guidance lines.

• Automatic headland turn: Choose in the settings whether the vehicle should turn inside the field or beyond its boundary.
• Manual row selection: Use Left Ctrl + Left Alt + Left Arrow or Left Ctrl + Left Alt + Right Arrow to select the next target row from up to ten rows away. Rows that have already been worked can also be selected.
• Contour guidance: GPS connects headland sections and guides the vehicle around islands. If an island interrupts a work row, the mod automatically finds a route back to the continuation of that same row.
• Implement control: During the manoeuvre, the implement is raised and its working mechanisms are switched off. Once the target row is reached, the previous operating state is restored. Separate settings are available for turning manoeuvres and island bypasses.
• Course without headlands: Set the number of headlands to zero in the course settings to create a route consisting only of work rows.

How to enable: Open the Steering Assistance settings, create a field course, and enable Automatic headland turn. Then activate GPS and cruise control. If no suitable turning trajectory is available, the vehicle will stop.
