It is also possible to connect to an inventory that already has one active ISOBUS connection, i.e. it allows the simultaneous operation of two ISOBUS systems. The system can also be connected to the tractor's navigation display, on which the data can be displayed.

Compatibility — with which machines and with which crops?

BMC-ISOBUScan be installed on all sizes of seed hoses on autumn planters. The sizes of the sensor adapters are diverse, which makes it a universal tool. The system works equally well on both new and old planters, as it monitors the flow through its own sensors.

Seed counting is carried out in real time, with the system handling even rapeseed without problems.

However, the advantages of this innovation do not end there. In addition to counting the seeds in the row, the system can also monitor the flow of fertilization, by monitoring the flow of granular fertilizers in real time. The only thing that needs to be done is to add the necessary sensors to the already built network of the system.
