The world's first GPS lightbar with color display, mapping and steering capable of one-inch accuracy
The EZ-Guide 500 represents the latest innovation in lightbar guidance systems with a large color screen – over 300% larger than the EZ-Guide Plus or any other lightbar on the market.
The EZ-Guide 500 features multiple accuracy options, and data logging function to record data and transfer via USB flash drive for generating printed maps and reports.
Most of today's lightbars can't be upgraded to higher accuracy without adding an external GPS receiver that may cost you several thousand dollars. But a typical EZ-Guide 500 high-performance package will cost you about 20-30% less than comparable solutions available today.
Color display on the EZ-Guide 500 system provides graphic quality currently available only in displays twice the size and price. It offers advanced but easy-to-use guidance patterns, as well as real-time "where-applied" mapping. The EZ-Guide 500 system also has a built-in lightbar with 31 guidance LEDs that are highly visible even in bright daylight.
Precision dual-frequency L1/L2 GPS receiver allows users a variety of accuracy upgrades based on crop and operation needs without purchasing an external receiver:

INSIGHT DirectCommand System
DirectCommand gives you direct control over individual boom sections and application rate by connecting directly to supported brands of flow meters and valves. The DirectCommand system gives you control over both liquid and granular application – including anhydrous applicators, spreaders, air carts and sprayers, while simultaneously logging data and providing application mapping capabilities – from one integrated display – the INSIGHT display.
DirectCommand Supports Anhydrous Heat Exchangers:
Raven two-valve system.
Raven one-valve system.
Dickey-john system.
AutoSwath™ – The Benefits:
Lower input waste and cost.
Reduces crop damage from over application.
Reduces skips due to forgetting to turn boom section back on.
Less operator fatigue.
Operator can monitor other functions.
Improves overall accuracy.
Improves environmental stewardship.
Rate Control. The DirectCommand system matches the real-time prescribed application rate to the target application rate by reading the flow meter and instantly adjusting the control valve. Simultaneously, it reads ground speed from a radar gun or 1 to 10 Hz GPS receiver and adjusts the valve accordingly. The system can also read and display optional pressure sensors, eliminating the need to monitor pressure gauges located outside the cab.
Manual Boom Section Control. The DirectCommand system connects and controls up to ten boom valves independently. A simple switch box allows an operator to switch on or off individual boom sections. This is especially useful around point rows, waterways and field borders. The system supports both motorized and solenoid type boom valves. An auxiliary input module is also available for connecting built-in boom and master switches in self-propelled sprayers or other vehicles.
AutoSwath Boom Control. An alternative to manual boom control, DirectCommand’s exclusive AutoSwath™ boom control automatically turns on/off individual boom sections based on your field map. AutoSwath eliminates the need for manually switching boom sections on/off – and the possibility of forgetting about a boom section that is turned off. AutoSwath’s precision boom control won’t turn off until all areas under the boom are applied. An on screen coverage map showing application skips and overlaps verifies that the system is providing complete coverage without wasting inputs.
AutoSwath and Inside/Outside Boundaries. The AutoSwath feature allows you to map multiple outside and inside boundaries in each field. That means you can mark field borders, headlands, waterways, creeks, ponds, terraces and other areas within the field, allowing the INSIGHT display to automatically turn off/on boom sections as you pass over these areas. The system will also calculate the area for each of these boundaries and automatically subtract them from total field acres.
INSIGHT Yield Monitor System
INSIGHT's 10.4 inch color touch screen display redefines the term "easy to use". With all functions at the touch of the screen, you can navigate through the display with ease. The color screen allows you to monitor yield and moisture at harvest and see your maps being generated in real-time. Now trends will be visible right in the field while you still have the opportunity to make observations through the windshield.
Hybrid/Variety Mapping. INSIGHTs hybrid/variety mapping capability allows you to map where you planted your hybrids/varieties and recall them at harvest time. As you are harvesting, a color yield map will draw overtop your planting map allowing you to precisely see which hybrid/variety you are harvesting and instantly make comparisons while in the field.
Swath Adjustment. INSIGHT's run screen provides instant access to swath adjustment for times when you are not cutting a full swath. Simply decrease the swath width as you go through the field and at the end of the pass, the swath will automatically go back to the head's full amount for the next pass. No more having to remember to reset the swath before the next pass.
Field Boundary Mapping. INSIGHT's boundary function allows you to define both external and internal field boundaries. Define your field boundaries as well as creeks, ponds, waterways, terraces, etc that may be in your field. When completed, the Insight will give you accurate acre totals of farmable ground as well as be useful for functions such as autoswath.
On-Screen Summary. INSIGHT's Dedicated Access buttons on the right hand side of the screen includes a Summary Button that allows instant access to your field summaries. Information such as crop type, acres, yield, moisture and total bushels can be pulled up at anytime for your review.
Simplified Setup. Setting up your INSIGHT Yield Monitor System is as easy as picking your combine from a list. INSIGHT's setup wizard correctly sets all appropriate settings for your particular combine, ensuring accurate data collection.
Field Notes. INSIGHT's Field Notes function allows you to mark such things as weed patches, rocks, tile inlets, wet spots, field maintenance items or anything else you care to note as you go through the field. Customizable symbols are displayed on the on-screen map every time you return to that field. Marking items that are visible at planting or tillage, can make navigating through the field much easier when the crop canopy is full, potentially reducing the need for costly repairs.
The Rinex AS7500 is the most advanced automated shuttoff controller in the world. Compatible with almost all Spray Rate Controllers and Tru Count Clutches. The AS7500 is the perfect answer to high chemical and seed costs saving up to 10% on application costs.
The AS 7500 has many features that make it the leading Automated shutoff controller. Such as Vehicle Modeling, Timing Delays, and Overlap Control. The simplicity of the unit will also appeal to many users that don't have the time or will to learn one of the more complicated systems on the market today. Best of all is the price of the unit, at a retail price of $1950.00
Many users are finding the AS7500 will pay for itself in the first year.
Lets take a closer look at the some of the features that make the AS7500 a stand out unit among the others.
Vehicle Modeling allows the AS7500 to calculate where the booms are when turning. This is especially useful when running a pull type sprayer. The other controllers are only really made for self propelled sprayers, because they lack the ability to calculate hinge points and know where the booms will be. This is the most important feature, users with pull type sprayers should look at when deciding what controller they want to purchase.
Overspray controll allows the user to set on a percentage base how much each section should overlap before it shuts off. Some chemicals will burn if over sprayed and other chemicals the user might want to be assured of adequate coverage.
Timing delays are another setting that is different for every sprayer. Timing delays are used to account for plumbing and electromechanical lag times. The boom valve may take .3 seconds to turn off after the controller tells it to, therefore you would want to put a lead time of .3 seconds into the controller. This way regardless of speed we can be sure presprayed areas have a minimum of overspray.
One of the most important features of the AS7500 is the ability to control Tru-Count Clutch systems for planters. Other systems start around $7,000.00 and can skyrocket over $10,000.00, this unit retails for $1950.00 and all you need after that is a Tru-Count clutch cable that retails for $250.00. This is the best choice for the money when it comes to planter clutch control. Compatible with all Tru-Count Air clutch kits no matter what planter you have.
We carry the full line of Tru Count clutch systems for every make of planters. For more information click on the on Tru Count Logo link and it will open up Tru Count's website in another window.
