Using Deutz / Topcon master switch control from an external switch

Sorry hit the post button by mistake. The manual says the virtual master switch can be controlled by an external input, I have tried asking the local dealer with no success.

Has anyone had any experience with this?

Do you have a picture of the back of the screen? If it is the same as a topcon X30 or X35 I have the external master switch Pinout numbers written down somewhere if that helps.

Thanks, that would be really helpful. Please find attached pic of the back of the console. I also found a schematic on the myTopcon app.

Pin 25 on the left hand plug is what I have for remote mapping on my x35 and was the same on the x30 it has 12v supplied to it when mapping, hope this helps 👍🏻

Put a meter on it and no luck, just need to find the pinouts for the Deutz version. I am pleased to know that the Topcon is capable of doing what we need, just need to figure out how.
