Abstract: A yield monitoring system for an agricultural harvester has an in-cab display. The in-cab display has at least one configurable user defined window operable to view at least two parameters simultaneously and comparatively in graphical format and in real time. The at least two parameters include data from at least one yield monitoring sensor or vehicle sensor. The in-cab display may have a menu allowing the choice of paired data sources to be viewed simultaneously and comparatively. Data sources may include quantity of crop yielded, moisture content of crop yielded, rate of flow of crop through the agricultural harvester, protein content of crop yielded, ground speed, speed of operation of the grain elevator, and height of the header above the ground.

Abstract: A yield monitoring system is provided for an agricultural harvester. The yield monitoring system has an in-cab display and at least one configurable user defined window operable to display at least two previously collected parameters simultaneously and comparatively in graphical format. The at least two previously collected parameters include previously collected data from at least one yield monitoring sensor or vehicle sensor. The in-cab display may have a menu allowing the choice of paired data sources to be viewed simultaneously and comparatively. Data sources may include quantity of crop yielded, moisture content of crop yielded, rate of flow of crop through the agricultural harvester, protein content of crop yielded, ground speed, speed of operation of the grain elevator, and height of the header above the ground.

Abstract: A work equipment system includes a control module coupled to a display to present a virtual control on the display upon receipt of an activation code. The activation code is provided in an activation tag on an activation display. An activation tag reader is coupled wired or wirelessly to the control module and is configured for reading the activation tag and sending a signal representative of the activation code to the control module.

Abstract: The present invention relates to non-steroidal ligands for use in nuclear receptor-based inducible gene expression system, and a method to modulate exogenous gene expression in which an ecdysone receptor complex comprising: a DNA binding domain; a ligand binding domain; a transactivation domain; and a ligand is contacted with a DNA construct comprising; the exogenous gene and a response element; wherein the exogenous gene is under the control of the response element and binding of the DNA binding domain to the response element in the presence of the ligand results in activation or suppression of the gene.
