Legacy 6000 system enlarges cab space and multi-product control
The Legacy 6000 brings together Mid-Tech's CAN-based, distributed control system, Mid-Tech's Fieldware mapping software, and Mid-Tech's Swath XL light bar guidance function into a single, Windows CE-based computer. The Legacy 6000 replaces up to three or four separate consoles freeing valuable real estate in the vehicle cab, decreasing operator workload, and lowering the total electronics system cost. The Legacy 6000 features a back-lighted, transflective, color display giving excellent visibility in all light conditions. The operator inputs information into the Legacy 6000 using sealed soft keys and a multi-layered, self-guiding menu. The system will control up to four products simultaneously, using Mid-Tech CAN control modules. A prescription map can be used to control the rate of any product. The Legacy 6000 maintains a complete record of its operations. This record can be transferred by PCMCIA card for later reporting or analysis on an office computer.
