750A variable seed rate

[parker]

Is any body doing variable seed rate with their 750A, other than with a john deer tractor?
I am currently running mine behind a case tractor, but the drill is not isobus compatible with the tractor for variable seed rate, just wondered if anybody else has had this problem and got round it?

We’re running our 750a on a Massey.
Isobus is plugged into a Topcon X30 and we are plugging a memory stick in that with variable rate seed prescription maps. Is your drill isobus? What screen do you use to operate the drill?

Yes it is isobus,plugs into the case tractor fine for normal operation, just cannot cope with variable seed rate, how much is a Topcon box?

Ask Robt (sorry don’t know how to tag) of LHagro. You might find a deal because they have updated to X35 now.

does the topcon plug into your tractor gps or use its own signal?

Hi @parker
Nicks outfit is a full Topcon system running x30 and agi-4 for steering and isobus drill control. Also @Feldspar has the same on his JD drill.
We have a few customer using x30/35 screens combined with Trimble kit , just using the x30 to control the drill for VRA and section control .
Pm me your details and I’ll try to help
