Row Follow™ takes control of the steering to keep the MK-V centered in the middle of the row, enabling you to focus on controlling the implement and your operation.
Please Note: If the row has young vines with minimal or no foliage, Row Follow™ will not recognize the row. We are expanding the range of working conditions and will make them available in future software updates.
For your best experience with Row Follow™, use it only in the conditions specified below.
Using Row Follow is easy:
-
As you enter a row: adjust the implement (Lower 3PT, Turn ON PTO, etc.)
-
Press the Row Follow™ button at the bottom left of the Smart Screen to activate Row Follow™.
-
You can control the MK-V's speed and implement while the tractor stays centered in the row.
-
When you get to the end of the row, toggle the steering wheel to take back control and end Row Follow™ or the MK-V will stop on its own to ensure safety. Avoiding the need for the MK-V to come to a full stop will keep your operation moving efficiently.
-
Adjust implement (Raise 3PT, Turn OFF PTO, etc.)
-
Steer the MK-V to the next row.
-
Repeat steps 1 to 6 for every row until you finish your operation.
Collision Avoidance in Row Follow™:
-
Collision Avoidance is always ON by default, and the tractor will automatically stop if it detects any obstacles.
-
You can choose to turn Collision Avoidance OFF if there are too many stoppages based on your in-row conditions. Always use caution when operating the MK-V when Collision Avoidance is OFF.
MK-V health issues:
In the event of a tractor health issue, please follow these steps:
-
Wait for 2 minutes or continue operating manually to see if the issue is resolved.
-
The MK-V will auto-resume once an issue gets self-resolved.
-
If the Row Follow™ button still does not appear, please reboot the tractor.
-
If the health issue persists, please contact Monarch by filing a service ticket on the MK-V smart screen.
