What values go in the set up boxes?

I got interested in Ag Open GPS over the winter, and decided to go ahead and assemble a system for my old John Deere 4640 tractor. I purchased an Ag Open GPS PCB 4.5 Micro with antenna along with a Baraki hyd. valve from Poland. I purchased a Panasonic Toughpad FZ-G1 Tablet and downloaded the AOG software. The Toughpad is connected to the PCB with a Cat 6 ethernet cable w/RJ45 connectors. I installed and Land Rover ride height sensor for my WAS. All the pieces of the puzzle are installed and plumbed and wired. Now I just need to figure out the set up. When the PCB is powered up the tiny green light at the bottom left of the RJ45 connector lights up and the tiny yellow light at the bottom right of the connector starts flashing rapidly. There are 3 LED lights behind 3 little windows to the left of the RJ45 connector. The left most light does not light up, and the other 2 light up red. There is a page on the AOG software where it needs a COM2, COM3, COM4 etc. entered in the box for the GPS antenna, plus the baud rate. Does anyone know what values to put in there? On the same page it asks for COM2, COM3, COM4 etc for “IMU”, “Steer”, and “Machine”. What are the correct answers for those? Right now this system is unusable and I would like to use it very soon. Thanks! Any other input that you think I might need would be appreciated too.

You are connected using Ethernet cable so you you can ignore baud rate and com port and all that stuff. Set it up according to this:

Since you are using ethernet cable, none of the com ports should be selected nor listed there. Did you follow the ethernet setup guide? Set up an ip adress?

Thank you, I didn’t know there was an ethernet setup guide or any of that. I will go through the steps in the morning and see if I can get things working.

Be sure to watch the help videos in agopengps you tube. It from how to start to much more.

I watched the tutorial videos on YouTube and that was a big help. I got the IP address set up and all the icon boxes turned green as they said it would. The led indicator lights on my PCB don’t light up green like I’m guessing they are supposed to. I have been through the steering wizard many times. When I get to the place where I push the icon button and the front wheels should turn either left or right, nothing happens. Sometimes my steering locks up for no apparent reason, and then it releases and works again for no apparent reason.
On a related subject, I have PCB with a BNO085. Things are oriented so that the X is in front of the Z (towards the front of the cab) and the Y is to the left of the Z. In the settings, I have the IMU set to X axis. Do I have that correct?
Thanks.


You have usb and udp connected at the same time… no com ports should be displayed near green icons

GPS-Led is red if you’re a using single F9P, thats ok.

Thanks for your input, I changed the com ports to blank but it hasn’t helped.
I was using the tractor to plant corn yesterday with AOG on but not functional, and I noticed that the ground under the tractor icon is moving backwards as I’m driving forwards. I’m guessing that could have something to do with it not working. How do I change that? I have watched many videos and haven’t seen that addressed.

Tap the tractor icon at center screen :smiley:

Your described IMU orientation is ok. Do you have a roll reading?

AS-ACT Led is green, when autosteer is activated.

How do you activate Autosteer? (Pressing the wheel Icon, or via an external switch / button) Do you have a A/B Line activated? What colour have the roll circle at right / bottom area?
