General description
The RSM Optimax system is designed to help to select the best combine settings for given conditions.
The system uses dialogue windows to communicate with the operator in order to identify the problem and provides suggestions on how to fix it by changing machine settings. The decision to make changes is made by the operator - the system only suggests. After the operator acknowledges the changes, the system will apply them.
RSM Optimax
How does it work?
The human-machine interface is structured as dialogue communication: the system generates requests on the screen of the operator’s panel of the on-board display, the operator answers questions by selecting one of the options suggested and tapping respective icons on the screen.
- the operator taps the respective icon on the on-board monitor to call up the combine setup optimisation system. In the main field, the system should show the menu for selecting the purpose of optimisation or the problem to be solved during the combine setup process
- the operator selects the desired goal of optimisation (problem) on the system menu within the selected goal of optimization (problem). The system offers a number of detailing questions to estimate the harvesting conditions and to get more details about the problem
- the system analyses the operator’s answers and the readings of its own sensors and the standard sensors of the on-board control system to offer the operator new settings for the combine’s harvesting units
- the operator accepts or rejects the settings offered by the system. If the operator accepts the settings, the system should change the operating parameters of the combine’s harvesting units in line with the settings offered and proceed to test new settings for 20 seconds. After that, the system should ask the operator to assess combine’s performance. If performance decreased or did not change with new settings, the system will suggest rolling back to the previous settings and optimising the combine performance by changing some other parameters. If the settings improved combine’s performance, the operator will be asked to choose whether to continue the optimisation or to stop and keep the result achieved
- after setup, the system goes back to the combine settings optimisation purpose selection menu
