Hi you can't do var rate with a 1800
You will need a 2600 or 2630 display
And if you need to do autotrac you will also need the screen to have a autotrac activation on
Pm if you need a 2600'/ 2630 screen as I have some for sale
Can also add autotrac if needed

The price is whit auto trac activated 1800 screen but i was thinking, by whit out screen but whit activation code. What will a 1800, 2600 or 2630 cost. And what is the difference between them. Is it possible to connect them to a Amazone zam whit amatron+ box.

I have a 2600 and 2630 screens for VR fertiliser, seed & spray. Both connect to my Vaderstad, Topcon & Amados + screens. You just have to splice a connecting cable into the wiring loom that connects the Greenstar screen to the tractor.

CPP is the best person to advise you in here.
 
I'm also looking for a second hand 1800, 2600 or 2630 screen, an activation code and roof receiver for my auto track and isobus ready jd6930.
Can anybody do a cheap activation code.? Doubt it.

Thanks in advance

Oh wow,didn't realise they be that price,what would either be without activation,just general gps.
Just display on their own.
Or have you one yourself?

CPP is a JD dealer. Activations are normally built into the receivers not the screens. Just the screen by itself? What's use is that? There are far cheaper hardware kits for guidance or variable rates than those screens.

What tractor? What screen does it have in it? The touch screens in the more modern R series often has Autotrac built in so you don't need an extra screen.

If you want to run autotrac you have to have autotrac activation on the screen
The accuracy level activation is on Starfire

If you want a 1800 it's £800-£900 ish
And 2600-£1500 ish
No activations secondhand units

Hi chaps, I have a JD7800 (only done 3000 hrs) but have a greenstar 3 2630 screen using SF3000 dome with autotrac steering wheel. I have just purchased an Amazone ZA-M ultra spreader with Amatron + box. My tractor does not have a speed sensor fitted. Can I simply get a cable from the 2630 screen into the amatron + box which will provide a speed sensor and maybe variable rate ? Thanks in advance

I have the same spreader & box. I have a splitter cable to choose between the tractor sensor or GPS but you won’t need this. Yes, you’ll need to tap into the Greenstar wiring loom that connects to the back of the 2630. Ask your JD dealer which pins it is though it will be in the 2630 manual too. It doesn’t matter whether you use Field Doc Connect 1 or 2 as long as you select the right one if doing variable rate.

I’ll have a look in the morning and get back to you with some pictures. I do recommend that you speak to your Amazone and JD dealers too.
