Claas Cebis Goes Moblie
2009-05-19

At this year’s Cereals Event, CLAAS UK will be launching a new portable multifunctional machinery control terminal – CEBIS Mobile.

Although based on the well proven CEBIS control system used throughout CLAAS combines and tractors, and so can be used to operate a wide range of CLAAS machines, CEBIS Mobile is primarily designed to be a stand alone ISOBUS controller for use especially in precision farming systems, and can be used with any machine or tractor.

Using the latest CEBIS 3 hardware, CEBIS Mobile has a 6.4 inch colour screen and a standard ISOBUS backlit keyboard. The ISOBUS and task management software provides for both ISOBUS and implement management, and the unit incorporates two SD card drives.

Unlike some other systems, as part of the software package that comes with the unit, CEBIS Mobile comes complete with the CLAAS AGROMAP software, so that the user can create their own variable application maps and therefore not necessarily be tied to outside suppliers.

For variable application management, CEBIS Mobile can be used in combination with most variable rate fertiliser spreaders, sprayers and drills currently on the market. CEBIS Mobile uses the ISO-XML format, which means that although mainly designed for use with CLAAS Agro-Net and Agro-Map software, CEBIS Mobile does offer some compatibility with other popular software mapping packages, making it one of the first controllers to offer an element of multi-platform compatibility.

Having loaded the application maps, in addition to managing the implement via either a Serial or ISOBUS interface, CEBIS MOBILE also has the capability to record and store an application map, showing what has been applied and where, that can then be transferred to the main computer and stored as proof of application for crop compliance or other schemes.
