Features
Monitor job quality when planting, spraying, and harvesting with John Deere Connect Mobile
Connect Mobile split-screen view
Connect Mobile overview
Monitor job quality in planting, spraying, and harvesting through an Apple® iPad® tablet app in the cab of a John Deere machine with John Deere Connect Mobile. Easily visualize and display multiple quality layers to detect problems that can occur during planting, spraying, or harvest. Connect Mobile also has a common user interface that makes it easy to use between different pieces of John Deere equipment.
Planting attributes
Connect Mobile split-screen view
Connect Mobile split-screen view allows users to compare two quality layers at once in every operation.
While planting, monitor and visualize key performance indicators in high-definition map layers and dashboard tiles such as:
- Actual population
- Target population
- Singulation
- Seed-spacing coefficient of variation (CV)
- Applied downforce
- Gauge wheel margin
- Ride quality
- Ground speed
- Variety
Singulation alerts
Turning on singulation alerts and setting thresholds
Singulation alerts in Connect Mobile
Set thresholds for quality layers and get alerts when they are exceeded.
Planter Quality Manager screen
Use Planter Quality Manager to precisely understand how each row is performing.
Spraying attributes
Connect Mobile actual rate map and pressure map in split-screen view gives the operator deeper understanding of machine performance
- Actual rate
- Rate deviation
- Ground speed
- Pressure
Harvest attributes
Connect Mobile split-screen view
Connect Mobile split-screen view allows users to compare a previous planting layer with current harvest layer, giving the operator instant understanding of variety performance, and helping find how to best harvest the field.
- Ground speed
- Moisture
- Dry yield
- Wet yield
- Relative grain loss - Beta
Show relative grain loss map - beta with trend graph
Changes to loss monitor's calibration factor
When the loss monitor’s calibration factor changes, it is noted as a pin on the map and a vertical line on the trendline.

Improve combine performance through Interactive Combine Adjustment (ICA)
Connect Mobile harvest makes ICA extremely easy. ICA can assist operators in improving the overall daily and seasonal productivity and quality of the combine. This feature is designed to resolve issues operators face during changing crop or harvest conditions and improve combine efficiency.
NOTE: ICA is available only on Final Tier 4 (FT4) model year 2014 through 2017 S Series Combines.

Connect Mobile harvest also has a run time monitor with key indicators. These include rotor speed, fan speed, threshing clearance, chaffer opening, sieve opening, average moisture, average wet yield, and average dry yield during harvest.
They are displayed on the iPad® tablet for easy monitoring. When a combine adjustment is made, the operator can see the machine indicators that are affected as they change in real-time.

Connect Mobile base equipment
Integrates easily with existing John Deere technology
Tractor cab with the GreenStar™ 3 2630 and 4600 CommandCenter™ displays
Connect Mobile is a solution that uses an Apple® iPad® tablet to help the operator better understand and manage the performance of their machines and implements. The iPad is utilized in the cab and works in conjunction with the GreenStar 3 2630 Display and 4600 CommandCenter or 4640 Universal Display. The Connect Mobile app augments the existing information available by displaying high-resolution, quality maps and performance metrics that are not offered by the GreenStar 3 2630 and 4600 CommandCenter or 4640 Universal Display.
To simplify the use of Connect Mobile, the field selection, crop type, products, and other documentation setup data are configured in the GreenStar 3 2630 and 4600 CommandCenter or 4640 Universal Display and automatically sent to the iPad. Accuracy of the documentation data and the maps are also important with Connect Mobile.
The global positioning system (GPS) information of the StarFire™ 3000 or 6000 Receiver is also sent to the iPad, improving the accuracy of maps. This ensures the documentation data being captured is accurate and displayed on the iPad properly.
Connect Mobile also works with a variety of other existing John Deere technology solutions. Please refer to the compatibility section for all the details.
NOTE: The 4200 CommandCenter and 4240 Universal Displays are not compatible with Connect Mobile. The 4640 Universal Display is compatible for spraying and harvesting using the Connect Mobile Server (CMS) and can be used with a wireless data server (WDS) for seeding.

Use Field Review to learn insights about the job
Field Review is a functionality that enables the grower to view previous data collected by the Connect Mobile app. It also allows the operator to download data from the Operations Center to view during the current operation. The grower can access their data directly from an iPad® tablet at any time or in any place.
Field Review enables the grower to select the field and operation they desire to view. The grower can then select any of the previous map layers to view on the iPad.
Field Review provides the grower the ability to perform basic crop scouting activities after the crop has emerged. Growers can utilize this functionality to validate planter performance, check chemical efficacy, or help identify potential agronomic issues that can occur in a field.
If the iPad is cellular capable and has an active data plan, Field Review will display the location of the user in the field as they perform their scouting activities.

Avoid costly downtime with flag proximity notifications
Flag proximity notifications help avoid obstacles in the field that could damage equipment and cause downtime. Establish a perimeter around flags that mark obstacles in the field. When equipment moves within the selected perimeter, the operator is notified with an audible tone on the iPad® tablet, as well as a pop-up notification on the Live Map in Connect Mobile.
Proximity Notification setting
Turn the Proximity Notification on for each flag desired.
Setting desired flag distance
Set the desired flag proximity notification distance for each operation type.

Set the desired distance to activate the notification.
Radius of the distance setting is visible
A perimeter is visible on the screen of the radius of the distance setting.
Notification of vehicle within flag perimeter
When the vehicle enters the perimeter, a sound is played in the iPad and a banner displays a “Flag Nearby” notification.

Operations Center data connection
Even though users currently do not see layers, Connect Mobile still has connections to the Operations Center data. Below are some of the ways that data is moved between Connect Mobile and the Operations Center to ensure producers and operators have the information they need to do the best job possible.
Flags
Create flags to warn operators of obstacles
Add field notes and photos to flags
Create point flags and send them to Operations Center for viewing on the Operations Center mobile or other connected apps or hardware like the Gen 4 displays.
Third-party layers
View third-party map layers in Connect Mobile
Select map layers to view
If third-party layers are available in Field Analyzer, they can also be seen on Connect Mobile.
Boundaries

Zones within an active boundary
Active boundaries are shown in Connect Mobile for a better understanding of work progress and making sure the entire field gets covered.
Downloaded layers from Operations Center
Variety layers visible in Connect Mobile
Previously documented operational layers are viewable in Connect Mobile while performing the current operation.
The following layers can be downloaded from Operations Center for viewing on split-screen mode during the current operation:
