An apparatus for driver-specific setting of vehicle devices (EG) has setting parameters stored as a setting-parameter data set (PS1-PSx) in a local processor (LP). Action signals (AS) are transmitted, via a control and/or regulating apparatus (R), to the devices (EG), from which sensor signals (SS) may be fed back into the control and/or regulating apparatus (R). The local processor (LP) reports the respective identifier (ID, ID1-IDx) and a vehicle identification (FK1-FKx) of the respectively used vehicle via a data radio link (FG, FZ) to a central processor (ZP), which enters them into a key-use register (BR) and stores the respectively associated setting-parameter set (PS1-PSx) and possibly other useful data as operating information (BM). This keeps them ready for an evaluation.

Apparatus and method for driver-specific setting on vehicle devices

An on-board computer system for machines has comprising a computer unit, a plurality of operation units for the machines such that the machines are adjustable, controllable and regulatable through the computer unit by adjusting values stored or inputted in the computer unit, inputting means for completing and changing data stored in said computer unit, an exchangeable operator plate having indicating and inputting means, and a mobile case accommodating the computer unit and formed so that the mobile sleeve is releasably connectable with the working machine and mountable on different working machines.

The automatic steering device for an electrically controllable hydraulic steering system automatically controls steered wheels (HR) of a steered vehicle, especially an agricultural machine, according to at least one electronic steering control signal (SHL,SHR). The automatic steering device includes one or more locating devices (OV) producing one or more locating signals (OS), a regulating device (ST) which periodically digitizes the locating signal or signals (OS), and produces the at least one electronic steering control signal by a logic combination of the digitized locating signal or signals and a predetermined locating criterion, particularly a lateral displacement of the vehicle from an edge of an agricultural material, to minimize a deviation of the locating signal or signals determined according to the predetermined criterion so that the at least one electronic steering control signal (SHL,SHR) increases in an approximately proportional manner in the vicinity of a null deviation from the predetermined locating criterion but increases progressively beyond the vicinity of the null deviation. A fuzzification of the control criteria and a defuzzification of at least one intermediate parameter to form the at least one electronic steering control signal (SHL,SHR) are disclosed.

The locating device for an agricultural machine controlled by an automatic steering system includes a first locating device component (OV1) directed at a first portion of a field on which agricultural material is not present, but adjacent an edge (GK) of the agricultural material and producing a first locating signal (OS1), a second locating device component (OV2) directed at a second portion of the field containing the material and adjacent, but not including, the edge of it and producing a second locating signal (OS2), a third locating device component (OV3) directed at a third portion of the field including the edge of the material and producing a third locating signal (OS3), a device for transmitting the first, second and third locating signals (OS1, OS2, OS3) to a regulating device (ST) for generating at least one hydraulic steering signal (SHL,SHR) from a standardized locating signal (NOS) to control the steerable wheels (HR) according to a predetermined locating criterion and a device for generating the standardized locating signal (NOS) by determining a preset range parameter from the first and second locating signals (OS1,OS2), determining a null point value as an average value of the first and second locating signals (OS1,OS2) and deriving the standardized locating signal (NOS) from the third locating signal (OS3) and the null point value.
