Release Notice This is the May 2006 release (Revision A) of the AgGPS Autopilot Automated Steering System Troubleshooting Guide. It applies to version 3.00 of the AgGPS Autopilot automated steering system. The following limited warranties give you specific legal rights. You may have others, which vary from state/jurisdiction to state/jurisdiction. Product Limited Warranty Trimble warrants that this Trimble product and its internal components (the Product) shall be free from defects in materials and workmanship and will substantially conform to Trimbles applicable published specifications for the Product for a period of one (1) year, starting from the earlier of (i) the date of installation, or (ii) six (6) months from the date of product shipment from Trimble. This warranty applies only to the Product if installed by Trimble or a distributor authorized by Trimble to perform Product installation services. Software Components and Enhancements All Product software components (sometimes hereinafter also referred to as Software) are licensed and not sold. Any Software accompanied by a separate End User License Agreement (EULA) shall be governed by the terms, conditions, restrictions and limited warranty terms of such EULA notwithstanding the preceding paragraph. During the limited warranty period you will be entitled to receive, at no additional charge, such Fix Updates and Minor Updates to the Product software as Trimble may develop for general release, subject to the procedures for delivery to purchasers of Trimble products generally. If you have purchased the Product from an authorized Trimble distributor rather than from Trimble directly, Trimble may, at its option, forward the software Fix Update or Minor Update to the Trimble distributor for final distribution to you. Major Upgrades, new products, or substantially new software releases, as identified by Trimble are expressly excused from this enhancement process and limited warranty. Receipt of software updates shall not serve to extend the limited warranty period. For purposes of this warranty the following definitions shall apply: (1) Fix Update means an error correction or other update created to fix a previous software version that does not substantially conform to its published specifications; (2) Minor Update occurs when enhancements are made to current features in a software program; and (3) Major Upgrade occurs when significant new features are added to software, or when a new product containing new features replaces the further development of a current product line. Trimble reserves the right to determine, in its sole discretion, what constitutes a significant new feature and Major Upgrade. Warranty Remedies Trimbles sole liability and your exclusive remedy under the warranties set forth above shall be, at Trimbles option, to repair or replace any Product that fails to conform to such warranty (Nonconforming Product), and/or issue a cash refund up to the purchase price paid by you for any such Nonconforming Product, excluding costs of installation, upon your return of the Nonconforming Product to Trimble in accordance with Trimbles standard return material authorization process. Such remedy may include reimbursement of the cost of repairs for damage to third-party equipment onto which the Product is installed, if such damage is found to be directly caused by the Product as reasonably determined by Trimble following a root cause analysis. Warranty Exclusions and Disclaimer These warranties shall be applied only in the event and to the extent that (i) the Products and Software are properly and correctly installed, configured, interfaced, maintained, stored, and operated in accordance with Trimble's relevant operator's manual and specifications, and; (ii) the Products and Software are not modified or misused. The preceding warranties shall not apply to, and Trimble shall not be responsible for defects or performance problems resulting from (i) the combination or utilization of the Product or Software with hardware or software products, information, data, systems, interfaces or devices not made, supplied or specified by Trimble; (ii) the operation of the Product or Software under any specification other than, or in addition to, Trimble's standard specifications for its products; (iii) the unauthorized,

installation, modification, or use of the Product or Software; (iv) damage caused by accident, lightning or other electrical discharge, fresh or salt water immersion or spray; or (v) normal wear and tear on consumable parts (e.g., batteries). Trimble does not warrant or guarantee the results obtained through the use of the Product.

Cable service kit for the AgGPS NavController II navigation controller


The Deutsch DTM Service kit is now available through Ladd Industries. This kit will support the repair or modification of cable connectors on the Trimble AgGPS NavController II navigation controller.

11.1

Part number availability


The kits come with pins and sockets for stamped and solid contacts. Because most cables are 1620 gauge wire, use the DTT-20-00 crimping tool and corresponding stamped contacts. However, if you currently use the HDT-48-00 crimping tool you can use the solid contacts with your crimper for 18 gauge wire, but the 16 gauge wire will not fit in the solid contact unless you trim the wire first.
