The new KRONE Smart Telematics Plus offers even more convenient analysis and usage of machine data.

Krone SmartConnect units automatically transfer machine data in real time to the Smart Telematics application in mykrone.green central support. This data can also be transmitted to a variety of farm management systems via the agrirouter 2.0. With the new Plus version of Krone Smart Telematics numerous enhancements make for even more convenient and efficient use of the available machine data.

Versatile data export

In the Plus version, machine and yield data can be exported as pdf files, or as Excel and ISOXML files. This enables fast and easy evaluation of larger amounts of data, for example covering several days or an entire harvest season.

BiG X forage harvesters with Krone NIR Control measure the nutritional quality of the forage as it passes through the shoot, giving live feedback to the operator in the cab and recording data for yield and content maps. Available displayed in dual format and exported as Shape files, this data can be further processed in farm management systems to provide a precise analysis of crop quality. It also offers valuable information for selective management measures so that operating resources can be used more efficiently, and yields can be optimised through section-specific sowing, fertilising and crop protection.

All machines at a glance with geofencing

With the Geofence function the user can mark an area on a map where machine movements will be recorded. This will show which machines are located in the geofence that has been set up, for example the operating site. The times when machines enter or leave this area are also recorded. Based on the arrival and departure times, the function automatically calculates how long the machines were in the area – valuable information that is especially useful when invoicing for machine rental. The user can also set up e-mail notifications and be informed as soon as a machine enters or leaves the geofence.

SmartBale app: Efficient bale management

The Smart Telematics Plus licence includes access to the SmartBale app. A bale map shows all round and square bales of the Krone balers, and also provides other information depending on how the baler is equipped, including details on moisture, weight and dimensions. Thanks to an adjustable threshold value, moist bales are also marked in colour on the map so they can be reliably recognised and stored separately. Square bales that have the Krone BaleTag can be exactly identified by QR code using the SmartBale app and bale location can be viewed and shared via the app.

Central data management with CCI.Maps

Smart Telematics Plus gives the user access to the new manufacturer-independent master data management with CCI.Maps. Master data such as customer information, field contours and field names can also be managed centrally in a single database. The advantage: Automatic synchronisation between CCI.Maps, CCI terminals and connected systems ensures uniform data. Field contours with the corresponding information can also be viewed in Smart Telematics Plus.

The new KRONE Smart Telematics Plus offers a host of innovative functions to make daily work considerably easier on the field and in the office. The proven functions of Smart Telematics are still available at no cost, while the Plus version with additional advantages can be purchased in the E-Solutions Shop through mykrone.green central support. A 4-week test licence is also available to try out the new functions.
