What is ISOBUS?

• A simple industry marketing term
• An electronic communications network used on
  Agricultural and Forestry equipment
• Items that meet the ISO11783 standard.

4
Interconnectivity between different manufacturers

• ISOBUS provides network interconnectivity
  between Manufacturers
• i.e. Mixing Matching Vehicles Implements
• Demonstrated as follows .

ISOBUS Terminology

• ISOBUS - The marketing term used to describe the
  implementation of at least the Agricultural ISO
  standard of ISO 11783. This is generally applied
  to equipment systems that involve the ISO 11783
  Implement Bus (Open System) network, whether on
  Tractors, Implements, or other self-propelled
  machines.

ISOBUS Terminology

• ISOBUS Compliance (ISOBUS Compliant)
•  "ISOBUS Compliance" or "ISOBUS Compliant"
  are phrases that cannot be used regarding
  equipment, harnesses, vehicles or systems unless
  certain ISOBUS criteria have been proven to have
  been met.

ISOBUS Terminology

• ISOBUS Compliance (ISOBUS Compliant)
•  "ISOBUS Compliance" or "ISOBUS Compliant"
  are phrases that cannot be used regarding
  equipment, harnesses, vehicles or systems unless
  certain ISOBUS criteria have been proven to have
  been met.
•   First, this means that the equipment has
  met the requirements of the "ISOBUS Compliance
  Test Protocol" document. Second, this also means
  having been successfully tested by a confirmed
  ISOBUS Test laboratory for the applicable
  sections of this Compliance document.

ISOBUS Terminology

• ISOBUS Compliance (ISOBUS Compliant)
•  "ISOBUS Compliance" or "ISOBUS Compliant"
  are phrases that cannot be used regarding
  equipment, harnesses, vehicles or systems unless
  certain ISOBUS criteria have been proven to have
  been met.
•   First, this means that the equipment has
  met the requirements of the "ISOBUS Compliance
  Test Protocol" document. Second, this also means
  having been successfully tested by a confirmed
  ISOBUS Test laboratory for the applicable
  sections of this Compliance document.
•   This is a voluntary process, not a required
  one, but to use these exact phrases  "ISOBUS
  Compliance" or "ISOBUS Compliant", then the
  equipment must have been successfully tested as
  stated above.  There are various subsections or
  categories of Compliance, the equipment must meet
  the requirements of the applicable categories.

11
ISOBUS Terminology

• ISOBUS Self-Declared Compliance  -  
• This phrase is similar to ISOBUS Compliance
  but means that an outside lab has not been
  involved.  To clarify further the manufacturer
  is confident that its equipment would meet the
  particular required tests of ISOBUS Compliance
  by a confirmed ISOBUS Compliance lab if so
  tested. By using this phrase, the manufacturer
  is declaring such a position will stand behind
  that claim.

ISOBUS in Brazil

• May 2005 Agrishow Meeting
• At Ribeirão Preto on May 18, 2005
• Organized by researchers from São Paulo
  University and Embrapa
• Supported by the national associations for farm
  equipment and machinery manufacturers, the major
  global Agricultural Equipment companies, and by
  ABNT, the Brazilian Standards Organization
• Aftermath Brazilian interest in ISOBUS has
  increased significantly.
• Articles have been published in several major
  magazines.
• On July 28, 2005, a similar presentation was made
  at the Ag Engineers congress, which had a more
  academic audience.
• Perhaps the most significant result is that ABNT
  (Brazilian Standards Organization) has called a
  meeting on the 15th of August with all the
  participants of the Agrishow meeting to discuss
  the actions to introduce ISOBUS in Brazil. The
  meeting will be held and coordinated by ABIMAQ
  (Implement manufacturers association).
