Abstract: An apparatus is provided for use with an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) scale associated with a grain cart. The apparatus includes a real-time telemetry weight device operatively connected with the OEM scale. The apparatus is configured to allow for a parallel mode of operation which provides for simultaneous operation of the real-time telemetry weight device and the OEM scale without interference while using a same set of load cells.

Abstract: An agricultural operations validation system works with a task controller of an agricultural machine that communicates operating instructions over a bus to operating elements of the machine to execute agricultural operations. A controller of the system includes a system processor executing programming instructions to (i) receive an operating file defining the operating instructions from an external device, (ii) communicate with the task controller to transfer the operating instructions, (iii) acquire performance information related to execution of the operating instructions, and (iv) compare the performance information to the operating instructions.

Abstract: A telematics device associated with an agricultural vehicle for communicating and collecting agricultural data is provided. The telematics device includes a telematic device housing, a processor disposed within the telematic device housing, the processor coupled to a wireless transceiver for providing wireless connectivity for communicating the agricultural data and an interface coupled to the processor for receiving the agricultural data from at least one of the agricultural vehicle and an implement towed by the agricultural vehicle. The processor is configured to determine a measure of the wireless connectivity associated with the wireless transceiver and adjust a data transfer rate up or down based on the measure of the wireless connectivity.
