ISOBUS Ready Project

If you buy an ISO device, this project will be installed by default. It is a plug and play ready project that can be used without any modification.

 

It is of course possible to modify this project, as the project is available as a sample project in the OPUS Projektor.

 

Main Screen

In the center part of the main screen, the ISOBUS pool will be displayed, flanked by the softkey rows on either left, right or both sides, depending on the configuration.

 

By default, the ISOBUS pool is expected on CAN bus 2. If it is connected on CAN bus 1, the according setting has to be made in the Settings screen.

If an ISOBUS ECU with a pool is connected to CAN bus 2, the pool will automatically be loaded.

 

The main screen offers the following menu buttons:

This screen allows making several Unit and Language Settings for the ISOBUS pool. Note that not all settings will have an impact on the pool. This depends on the implementation in the ISOBUS pool (i.e. if the pool does not have a certain language implemented, the language can't be displayed and the default will be used instead).

Also note that most translations were made with help of A.I. tools, so imperfections are to be expected. Please feel free to send corrections for a language that you are fluent in, we are happy to improve the texts in future versions.
