The main navigation and buttons of the Virtual Terminal (VT) are summarized here:

Note: All images in this document are provided for demonstration purposes only. Depending on system options and software version, your Virtual Terminal may appear slightly different.

[Button]:

  1. Soft keys

    1. [Home] - Home page

    3. [Liquid] - Liquid page

    4. [Machine] - Machine page

    5. [Boom] - Boom page

    6. [Switch] - Main switch

    7. [+] - Application rate +

    8. [-] - Application rate -

  2. [Rate - Pressure] - Actual application rate and spraying pressure

  3. [Droplet - Flow] - Actual droplet size and flow

  4. [Steering Drawbar]

  5. [Boom height] - Boom height control

  6. [PWM] - PWM indicator

  7. [Tank level] - Tank level indication

  8. [Steering Axle]


PWM Indicator

With LeapBox, a large range of applications and speeds can be achieved with a single nozzle by opening and closing the nozzle. The PWM % indicates the amount of time the nozzle is open. For example, when the PWM % is 30%, the nozzle is opened 30% of the time.

Every nozzle size has a maximum flow, depending on the liquid pressure. When the PWM % is 100%, the nozzle is always open, which means that it is not possible to increase the flow. At this point, the distribution will still be correct, but the application rate will be lower than the target application rate. The display will mark the area below the nozzles it concerns orange. Possible solution at this point:

  • Drive slower

  • Increase pressure (This decreases the droplet size)

  • Decrease application rate

The image below shows a specific scenario of the PWM indicator when making a turn to the right and with some sections off at the right hand side. Depending on the ISOBUS version of the console, it is shown different:

  • Top image - ISOBUS version 3 of lower

  • Bottom image - ISOBUS version 4 or higher


Sections on/off

When sections are closed in the middle of the boom (sections further outside are still open), the PWM indicator in the Virtual Terminal will not show these closed sections as closed; but as open. In the Webvisu the correct PWM can be seen per spray position.


Small VT view

Some Isobus displays allow for smaller Virtual Terminal views. This is not supported by BBLeap. It might occur that some functions do work, but the visualization cannot be considered 100% reliable for all systems.
