Details for DDEntity "466 - Actual relative connector angle"

466 - Actual relative connector angle Request changes

Definition	The DDI Actual relative connector angle shall be placed in the device element of type connector in the DDOP of the TC-SC Client. The value describes the actual angle of the longitudinal axis of the implement relative to the longitudinal axis of the tractor. This angle should be used by the TC-SC server to calculate the real position of implement. The TC-SC server may smooth the rendering in any proprietary screen. The reference system is the coordinate system of the tractor. This results in the angles from table 1 of the attachment. In case of for example a malfunction sensor the error value is set to 0xFExxxxxx.
Comment	When working with Section Control it is necessary that the TC-Server calculates the exact position of the implement and its boom and sections to mark the covered area on its section control screen properly. To calculate the positions the TC-SC server uses the x and y offsets of the DRP and CRP. This works well for mounted and for non-steered trailed implements but comes up against limits when implements do have a steering axle or even a steering drawbar because the TC-SC server can’t know the current steering angle and moving the DRP doesn’t fit in all means. But this could be solved when the TC-SC server would knew the exact angle of the implement related to the tractor. This information could be provided by the implement because when they have a steering mechanism they even have a sensor to measure the angle between tractor and implement.
