AgOpenGPS for Center Pivot Irrigation Circles

Hi All

I am new to all of this and in the process of identifying potential pros and cons of using AgOpenGPS as a viable option in our farming operation in South Africa. Steering will be done on 2 tractors.
1: JD 6910 using a AIO board with a Keya steering wheel.
2: MF 7620 SteerReady using a AIO board via CanBus.

My biggest concern is that all our fields are under Center Pivot Irrigation, mostly maize (corn) and lucerne (alfalfa) and requires n circular AB mode or 360 deg curve contour. I stared playing around with V6.3.3 and found no such feature. How do I go about doing this?

We are currently using a Trimble CFX750 with a circular pivot feature. When creating the field or first tramline, one simply select Pivot pattern, select starting point A, drive along the wheel track for a sufficient distance and select point B. After this, the software defines the circular path for the diffident tramlines.

If there is no such option in AgOpenGPS, will it be available in the future?

Also, any other hardware recommendations are welcome

Regards.

Pierre

You can set a circle track. And then set where the center of it is.

Thanks @Davidwedel,

Is there a video or a post with more details on how to do this

For anyone else coming here.
