The iforeman app allows for an unlimited number of devices to send weight data. The app automatically measures, records and organizes loads from cart to truck. It’s made by Avery Weigh-Tronix for a smart device and the i60 serial processor. It connects to the junction box interface cable and wirelessly transmits data to the app. Details include:
Capability
It is compatible with both iOS and Android devices including iPad gen 3 and later, iPad mini, iPhone 4S and later and Samsung Galaxy and Google Nexus devices running Android 4.3 and later. Bluetooth communication and Lithium Double AA battery-operation eliminates cable clutter in the cab and trouble free hitching to the grain cart. The range is an incredible 50’ (15 meters) line of-site to the main smart device.
Simple to Use
The iForeman app can run on an unlimited number of compatible devices in remote-mode, this ensures anyone within 400’ (122 meters) access to the grain cart to see what the weight of the commodity is. Its dynamic filtering capability stabilizes weight even while traveling over rough terrain. Its polycarbonate enclosure protects electronics from impact, dust, vibration and moisture. After one hour of scale inactivity, the app starts to conserve power.
Data and Reports
A complete record is created for every cart load and automatically includes the time, date, weight and GPS location. The user also has the ability to record farm, grower, commodity, field, truck, load destination, moisture, temperature, equipment operator and test weight. Loads can be easily edited on the smart device to ensure accuracy and reports can be emailed once the device is connected to Wi-Fi and this allows users to review.
For those in Agribusiness, it can show proof of yields for Federal Crop insurance, verify and calibrate combine yield monitors and analyze yield performance. Having the ability to be away from the equipment while its being weighed also helps boost efficiency. There’s no longer a need to sit in the cab looking at a traditional scale. The iForeman app is the way of the future, allowing for the highest efficiency and cost savings on grain cart weighing.
