As the first company to offer electronic control on tractors, Massey Ferguson continues to commit substantial resources to research and development and now offers a whole range of highly innovative technical features, systems and aids aimed solely at making your business more efficient. Collecting, monitoring and interpreting information is a key element of any successful enterprise today and farming is no exception. It enables closer control of costs, better use of time and more accurate measurement of performance. But don't assume that you need to be an expert in electronics to benefit from Massey Ferguson Technology ­ it may be extremely clever and highly advanced, but it's very simple to set up and operate. [. . . ] Cylinder load monitor allows operators to keep the combine working at optimum capacity while ensuring it is not overloaded. At the same time, the screen also shows grain losses from the straw walkers and the sieves to help ensure the setting is correct. Constant Flow To maintain optimum harvesting efficiency with minimum operator input, Massey Ferguson offers the intelligent but practical Constant Flow system. The key to higher outputs is to ensure the combine is fully loaded at all times. Datavision III on the new MF rotary combine Massey Ferguson's new high capacity combine harvester, the MF Fortia rotary machine, is equipped with the Datavision III monitor and control system operated through the advanced colour C2000 Virtual Terminal. Based on the tried and tested software of Datavision II, the new Datavision III system offers enhanced functionality. The fully ISOBUS compliant C2000 Virtual Terminal uses a touch screen, a series of buttons and a rotary dial to scroll through menus and select functions. From this single Harvest screen you are able to view up to eight different functions simultaneously, monitoring efficiency and ensuring maximum output is maintained, without losses. Electronic guardian A vast array of engine and harvesting elements are supervised by Datavision II ensuring, for example, operating temperatures and shaft speeds are within 16 01 In-cab control and monitoring. The extensive menus provide a range of functions: · · · · · · · Working information Table settings Combine settings Harvesting data Engine monitoring Service Task Controller 02 Datavision II work screen. 01 03 Multifunctional Lever on the MF Centora. The Task Controller manages a wide range of information on farm and field names, machine operation, crop yield and moisture that can be recorded and transferred simply using an SD Card. Keep on track with Auto-Guide The Console II terminal also provides full control of the Auto-Guide system, where specified. Along with ensuring the MF Fortia combine table's working width is fully utilised, Auto-Guide releases the operator from steering duties.

Massey Ferguson's tractors and machinery utilise the GTA software, a powerful, but easy-to-use modular program package that provides you with the key information you require to keep tight control on costs and provide detail for traceability records. GTA software, developed specifically by AGCO Advanced Technology Solutions and Farm Works Software, is a costeffective package that will analyse and measure performance. Straightforward and easy-to-use, the programs build into a comprehensive system starting with simple records of all operations and applications. GTA100 Communicator GTA100 Communicator, standard with Console I and Datatronic III, is the heart of the package, allowing users to quickly download and access key details on machine performance. From the `basic task screen', which forms the core of the display window, users can access all the information. The screen shows three working windows that allow you to quickly find, view and update details on the farm, field and jobs. Comprehensive details of every planned or completed task are held here, providing superb management control of work in progress and setting priorities. A search facility helps sort the jobs according to, for example, crops, and field or time periods. 18 01 Simple screen layout of the GTA100 Communicator.
