MarkerMASTER is a complete control system which turns markers into electronically-controlled precision agriculture tools.

The MarkerMASTER system consists of a manifold that attaches to your tractor or seeder frame as well as a wiring harness and an electronic control box that mounts inside your tractor cab.

MarkerMASTER interfaces with existing tractor hydraulics to provide smooth,safe and accurate control in the field.

All the head-twisting and lever-yanking is replaced by single button presses on a small cab-mounted box. Headland turns become interlock-safe and push-button simple and smooth. Centrack invented their one-touch marker control system in 1995, began marketing it in 1997 and for 2001 has advanced it further with their new heads-up engineering.

MarkerMASTER is currently being used by hundreds of farmers to further reduce gaps and overlaps and simplify field operations.

Put quite simply MarkerMASTER —with a goodset of field markers—is an important first step to precision farming that pays for itself in less than two years.

MarkerMASTER lets you keep your eyes on more important things like your field

Operators no longer need to hold a lever while waiting for markers to fold or extend. MarkerMASTER makes markers cost-efficient electronically-controlled precision agro tools. MarkerMASTER reduces fatigue and stress by eliminating levers and head-twists. Also MarkerMASTER replaces troublesome sequencing valves and selectors. And MarkerMASTER "tops up" cylinders automatically—no drooping markers.

Safety Features

Gentle activation and safety interlock prevent errors. Restrictor orifices are normally included in certain fittings of marker cylinders to limit the speed of motion while markers are extending or retracting.

2001 "Heads-up" Engineering

After consultation with many MarkerMASTER users its electronic controls were re-engineered for 2001 to further refine this efficent system.

New features include:

• Larger display/control panel within the same compact space
• Brighter LED position/motion indicators located and marked for clear function display
• Membrane switches sealed to keep out dust and moisture
• Distinctive touch and audio feedback for each switch confirms operator's intended actions
• Improved self-diagnostics
• Auto-return to "off" when powered down by tractor key switch
• Interchangeable with previous MarkerMASTER control box
• Front-panel settings button easily adjusts detent time and top-up intervals as well as sound and light intensity
• Internet online product support operational advice and precision-agriculture-related information

Ease of installation

Installation is easy. The package contains clear instructions and most fittings.

The small control box screws anywhere in tractor cab. A manifold replaces sequencing valve (bolts to drill or seeder frame)-no extra outlet needed. Universal design integrates manifold with almost any system - directly to tractor remote parallel to hydraulic fan motor or to tractor "power-beyond" port.

Everything is included - electronic remote control, hydraulic manifold, hardware and fittings, weather-sealed wiring harness, and clearly-illustrated installation and operation handbook. Comes with one--year full system warranty.
