ISOBUS Kverneland Group Mechatronics BV

The origin of ISOBUS

In the eighties Kverneland GroupMechatronics applied for a patent on ISOBUS,a protocol for data communication betweentractors and agricultural equipment.

The company released the patent in 2001,whereupon ISOBUS grew to become theinternational standard. Any farmer purchasingagricultural machinery equipped withelectronics and an ISOBUS networkingprovision, is now on a “Plug& Play” level withall systems meeting that standard.

What is ISOBUS?

In 2001, farm machinery manufacturersagreed to implement a common standard forcommunication interfaces on tractors,implements and farm management systems.This common communication standard willenable products from different manufacturers,to easily communicate with one another andeliminate the need for separate controls,terminals and displays.

The common communication standard iscalled ISO 11783 and is commonly referred toas 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 toallow single point control of allimplements. All data collection from yourmachine(s) is centralized and can beeasily transferred to your terminal (e.g.IsoMatch Tellus).

Tractors will ultimately have just oneterminal instead of multiple devices tocontrol sprayers, spreaders and otherimplements.

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 CompatibleAll 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).
