ISOBUS Kverneland Group Mechatronics BV
2
The origin of ISOBUS

• In the eighties Kverneland Group
• Mechatronics applied for a patent on ISOBUS,
• a protocol for data communication between
• tractors and agricultural equipment.
• The company released the patent in 2001,
• whereupon ISOBUS grew to become the
• international standard. Any farmer purchasing
• agricultural machinery equipped with
• electronics and an ISOBUS networking
• provision, is now on a Plug Play level with
• all systems meeting that standard.

3
What is ISOBUS?

• In 2001, farm machinery manufacturers
• agreed to implement a common standard for
• communication interfaces on tractors,
• implements and farm management systems.
• This common communication standard will
• enable products from different manufacturers,
• to easily communicate with one another and
• eliminate the need for separate controls,
• terminals and displays.
• The common communication standard is
• called ISO 11783 and is commonly referred to
• as ISOBUS.

Basic components in ISOBUS system

• Tractor Electronic Control Unit (ECU)
• Virtual Terminal (e.g. IsoMatch Tellus)
• Implement Electronic Control Unit

Why ISOBUS?

• The goal of a common standard is to
• allow single point control of all
• implements. All data collection from your
• machine(s) is centralized and can be
• easily transferred to your terminal (e.g.
• IsoMatch Tellus).
• Tractors will ultimately have just one
• terminal instead of multiple devices to
• control sprayers, spreaders and other
• implements.

7
How you will benefit from ISOBUS

• One and only one control console means
• Lower costs No need to purchase a separate
  control device for various implements.
• Easier operation Learn how to use just one
  terminal.
• Easier installation Standardized plugs, cables
  and software make the concept of plug-and-play
  a reality.

Kverneland Group ISOBUS Compatible

• All ISOBUS implements manufactured
• by Kverneland Group ensure fleet-wide
• ISOBUS compatibility, also on
• competitor Tractor Terminals, such as
• CNH, Challenger, Müller-Elektronik/
• Dammann, Fendt, John Deere and
• Massey Ferguson.
• At the same time - the universal
• IsoMatch Tellus terminal ensures
• compatibility with other ISOBUS
• implement manufacturers.

Kverneland Group The ISOBUS Company

• With the development and availability of 29
  ISOBUS machines, the
• Kverneland Group profiles itself as the ISOBUS
  company for Agricultural
• Equipment.
• All initiatives in development in ISOBUS
  Technology are undertaken
• - to increase the customer benefits in relation
  to the application of ISOBUS
• technology within ISOBUS machines.
• - to improve the compatibility of ISOBUS products
  worldwide (plug play).
