Is there a way to save the hydraulic remote configuration easily for each operator? Been using ours today and it saves flow rate/timer settings but each restart changes which remotes are assigned to each button

I have a successful one saved for the tanker, where it cuts off the PTO, and a couple of seconds after shuts the valve, then the next press opens the valve and starts the PTO. It works brilliantly.

Just couldn’t for the life of me get it working right on the mowers though.
I need to try with again with my drill.

Problem with it is it's slow to lift linkage when two hydraulic fans are running. Do you think it could be set to switch off constant pump when linkage raising?

Im the only operator so can’t answer that but it should be, I just assign different implements and when I select one, the settings all load for that implement including remote configurations.

It’s also telling me the front linkage is locked it won’t work on joystick how do I unlock it.

Was the reconf not a optional extra? It was only available on Tier4b upwards.

I actually don’t know, both my 2016 and 2021 tractors have had it, but I didn’t spec either one up, they were in the yard available. It seems odd to make a crosspad on the joystick and not have programmable which spools you want on each one?

That's an Intelliview 4 you have if it's the same as Colins 👍 (it will be since it's a '16 tractor)

Bear with me, if what Colin says works for you, you can also set it so that the front and rear mower will drop into and lift out of work by pressing the same HTS button (tractor symbol)

I.e.
One press - drop front mower
Second press - drop rear mower
End of row, press again - lift front
Press again - lift rear
And repeat the process (by far the easiest way imo).

If you wanted to be a little more fancy, you could set it so that pressing the HTS button once will drop the front mower, drop the rear mower a couple of seconds later, and even adjust revs automatically at the end of the row.


It all sounds very complicated but it's pretty easy, if I had 10 minutes sitting in the cab I could show it to anyone 😅
Can't you program it with headland management? Something I need to learn to use with mine, not so much with the mower more the combi etc.

Under the armrest, the drop speed dial if turned fully CCW locks the linkages. Same for the rear.
The switch is actually glued in the lock position for some reason!! It was working fine on joystick until yesterday when a new driver went playing with buttons!! Now it will only work when switched to spools
