FM-MULTI WIDTH: Field Mate Multi Width Monitor Option
Dynamically changes the working width number inside the Fieldmate Area Meter as the implements real world working width changes. This is an essential option for accurate surface area measurement of dual/triple mowers or spray booms. (see diagram below)

FM-TRAMLINE: Field Mate Tramlining Control
This option transforms the standard area meter into a tramline controller. Specialised software is loaded into the meter and dedicated hardware is supplied to support control of solenoid and motor actuators. Generates line and round tramlining patterns.

FM-RAM-MOUNT: Field Mate Flexible Metal Mount
The strong metal ram-mount assembly allows the meter to be located at any angle in the tractor.

FM-GPS MAP: Field Mate Output to GPS Systems
The Field Mate meter will give instruction to a GPS mapping system to start and stop mapping in accord with a drilling or mowing operation. When the meter is in ‘hold’ mode the GPS control wire switches off, and in ‘run’ mode it switches on. This lets the rugged Field Mate run/hold sensors do all the implement monitoring work, freeing up the GPS system to map and guide without the hassle of dealing with multiple implement working sensors - a valuable tool for simple and tidy GPS mapping systems.
