Care and Maintenance
• Harsh chemicals may damage the touch screen. Clean the touch screen and console exterior as needed with a soft cloth dampened with glass cleaner. Apply the cleaner to the cloth and then wipe the screen gently.
• Removing power from the console without shutting down the Cruizer II may result in damage to the unit which will require the console to be returned for service
• To avoid scratching the touch screen, do not use any type of sharp instrument. Only a fingertip or an approved stylus should be used.
• Do not expose the Cruizer II console to precipitation, condensation, or other liquids for extended periods. The weather resistant Cruizer II may be operated in equipment without an enclosed driver cabin, however, the console should be stored in a dry environment when not in use.
• The suction cup is not meant as a permanent mounting solution. It is recommended that the suction mount only be used when the console is in operation. Clean the mounting surface with alcohol or a similar cleaner prior to attaching the suction mount. Clean the mounting surface and suction cup periodically.
Warning: Raven Industries is not liable for damage to the Cruizer II console, or any other in cabin items, due to failure of the suction mount.
• Damage to the console may occur if the USB ports are used to charge mobile devices such as cellular phones, tablets, or mp3 devices. The USB ports should only be used for performing file transfer and maintenance.
• Route cables to prevent tripping hazards and to keep wires from pinching or breaking.
• When temperatures are expected to be 10° F (-12° C) or lower, remove the console from the vehicle and store it in a climate controlled environment.
• Even when powered down, the Cruizer II console will draw a small amount of power from the vehicle battery. If the machine will not be in operation for an extended period of time (e.g. more than a couple weeks), disconnect the power cable from the back of the console.

Installation
1. Mount the antenna on the centerline of the tallest point of the vehicle
(usually on the top of the vehicle cabin) using the magnetic mount. Make sure that the antenna has a clear, 360° view of the sky. If the mounting location is not metallic, use a mounting plate (supplied with helix style antenna) to mount the antenna.
2. Route the antenna cable to the back of the Cruizer II console and connect it to the antenna port.
3. Using the RAM mount arm, mount the Cruizer II inside the cab to a clean surface.
4. Connect the power cable leads directly to the machine battery:
• Connect the red lead wire to a clean 12V DC power source.
• Connect the white wire to ground.
5. Connect the power cable to the power port on the Cruizer II.
Warning: Do not modify the power cable in any way. The power cable offers fuse protection. Modification of any of the supplied parts could result in injury or death.
For additional cabling and connection assistance, see the
section on page 34. Additional system diagrams
are available on the Raven web site.
Note: Throughout this manual, text may appear either in
blue
or bolded. The
blue
text are references to section headings or the Raven web site.
Refer to these sources for more information. The bolded text are names of Cruizer II icons.
Arrows ( ) within the following sections indicate a series of icons that must be selected to complete the procedure.
Boom Sense Interface Installation
A boom sense adapter (P/N 115-0171-871 or 115-0171-976) will be required to toggle coverage history, or “painting,” on or off based upon a machine or implement switch during a field operation. Once installed, Review the Switch
settings in the System section on page 18 and select the Hardware option to
enable the Cruizer II to reference the switch status for coverage history. To install the steering interface with sense adapter:
1. Connect the 8-pin Turck connection to port B on the back of the Cruizer II.
2. Route the switch signal to the grey spade terminal on the interface cable.
If tapping into an existing switch, only the signal connection is required.
When 12 volts is detected on this line, Cruizer will toggle the coverage history on the map to “paint” active coverage.
3. If installing a separate switch specifically for the Cruizer coverage history, route connect the orange lead to the switch.
Cruizer will supply voltage to the switch. When the switch is closed, signal will return to the Cruizer to toggle coverage history on the map to “paint” active coverage.

AccuBoom™
Note: The following sections provide information on configuring the
AccuBoom system and available implement sections with the Cruizer II console. Contact a local Raven dealer for additional products or optional features available for use with the Cruizer II console.
The Raven AccuBoom feature automatically controls boom or implement sections based upon the coverage map created by the Cruizer II console during guidance operations or based upon prerecorded no-spray zone features completed during the active job.
The AccuBoom feature also assigns spray and no-spray zones to field boundaries completed with the AccuBoom feature enabled. The area within the completed boundary is automatically assigned as a spray zone and a minimum of three boom or implement widths outside of the boundary is assigned to a no-spray zone.
Note: When used with the SCS 4400 or SCS 4600, the Cruizer II must have software version 2.3 or later. If the Cruizer II console is connected to a
Raven rate control console (e.g. SCS 440/450, SCS 660/661 or SCS
4400/4600) the Cruizer II will forward section on/off commands from the AccuBoom node to the rate controller to provide automatic section control for product applications.
Sections Setup
The Section configuration uses the programmed antenna Offset values to determine the relative location of each section with respect to the GPS antenna.
Note: Offsets for sections must be measured to the center of each section width. Review the
section on page 5 and apply the same
measurement practices used with the guidance width to measuring section offset values.
If the GPS antenna is moved, or if the offset values are modified, verify that the section settings are correct before starting or resuming a field operation.
To set up sections for automatic section control:
1. From the

Look Ahead
AccuBoom monitors the GPS position and coverage map while considering the look ahead times to begin controlling sections on or off before the section crosses spray or no-spray boundaries. Look ahead times may help to compensate for delays in the sprayer system including the time it takes for boom or control valves to open or close.
Note: The specific look ahead time is a function of the valve timing and the speed at which the operator is driving the machine.
Coverage Percent
AccuBoom automatic section control allows the operator to define the amount of coverage tolerated during an application.
For applications which require complete coverage, the coverage percent setting should be set to a higher value (80% to 100%). When applying products that do not tolerate overlaps, the percent coverage should be set to a lower value. The default value for the coverage percent is 80%. AccuBoom allows a percent coverage value anywhere from 5 to 100 percent.
Override Time
The AccuBoom override feature allows the operator to override the automatic section control feature and force all AccuBoom controlled sections on for a user defined time interval. This feature is useful to re-apply product to a heavily infested field area or when accelerating from a complete stop. The time for the override may be modified to match specific application needs.
