PÖTTINGER CONNECT is the cost effective access point into the world of networked data. The telemetry unit in combination with the Profiline comfort control system on the TERRASDISC makes it possible to control machine functions while collecting agronomic data and transmitting it to a farm management system that can use the data to increase output and cost effectiveness.
PÖTTINGER CONNECT is a tool designed for site-specific farm management that offers you simple and cost-effective precision farming applications. On the TERRADISC, this makes site-specific regulation of the working depth possible.
Easy installation and a certified data interface allow rapid use of the telemetry unit and flexible connection to various management systems.
The telemetry unit offers the right solution for every farm thanks to its modular design. Using identical hardware, different packages are unlocked by different license agreements:
CONNECT – COMMAND: This module controls the functions of the machine by actively sending commands to the implement, such as automatic lifting at the headland. The package includes activations for Section Control (TC-SC), Variable Rate Control (TC-GEO) and GeoSuite.
CONNECT – MANAGEMENT: This module is used for data recording, transmission and documentation. It is also possible to display parameters such as the working depth on a site-specific basis. The package includes activations for TC-BAS, TC-GEO and a connection to agrirouter.
CONNECT – COMPLETE: This package includes all the functions and activations in the COMMAND and MANAGEMENT modules.

A GPS signal is required for TC-GEO and TC-SC. If fitted, the antenna on the tractor can be used for this purpose. An external GPS antenna, which is mounted directly on the machine, is available as an option.

Both the telemetry unit and the respective farm implement are operated using ISOBUS-capable terminals or alternatively using the tractor terminal.
For this purpose PÖTTINGER offers its intelligent terminals POWER CONTROL, EXPERT 75 and CCI 1200 as options suitable for every application. This provides a better overview in the tractor cabin by using just one terminal.

In combination with the GeoSuite app, PÖTTINGER CONNECT - COMMAND and COMPLETE can display the coverage map. The application can be accessed by any tablet or smartphone using the web browser. The connection to the machine is easily made using the wireless network.
Among other things, the app can be used to create field boundaries and activate automatic mode for Section Control. In this mode, the machine is controlled depending on the GPS position.

PÖTTINGER CONNECT – MANAGEMENT and COMPLETE include a certified data interface to agrirouter.
For worldwide implementation, any farm management information system can be used.

The agrirouter was developed by DKE-Data GmbH & Co. KG, working together closely with leading agricultural machinery manufacturers like PÖTTINGER. The objective was to create a platform for exchanging data between machines and farm management software. agrirouter is the result. agrirouter is a web-based, manufacturer-independent data platform that enables the exchange of data between machines, farm software and digital apps provided by different manufacturers.

Using the agrirouter offers many advantages for farm businesses. These include manufacturer-independent data exchange, greater efficiency in farm management, process optimisation, and easy-to-use digital documentation.
Data security and transparency
agrirouter displays data to support decision making. Farmers and contractors can choose which data is forwarded to each application.

PÖTTINGER provides the capability of transmitting ISOBUS-compliant machine data to the agrirouter.
In addition to seed drills such as VITASEM, AEROSEM and TERRASEM, the machines covered also include rotor loader wagons, round balers, rakes and mowers. Compatible machines are always recognisable by the "ready for agrirouter" sticker.
PÖTTINGER customers can use the agrirouter to send job data from field indexing software or application maps, directly to their CCI 1200 terminal or to PÖTTINGER CONNECT, and save and display data relating to silage bales, for example, on their farm management system.
