Surface Water Pro™ Plus system for the GreenStar™ 2 (GS2) 2600 and GreenStar 3 (GS3) 2630 Displays take water management to the next level. When added to either a GS2 2600 or GS3 2630 Display, Surface Water Pro Plus will open the door for more advanced ditching functions enabling the creation of more precise ditches.

To attain this functionality, a Surface Water Pro Plus activation is required and a second StarFire™ 3000 or StarFire 6000 Receiver will need to be mounted on the implement which must be running at least SF2/SF3, but RTK is highly recommended. The receiver on the tractor may run SF2/SF3; however, RTK is recommended. To ensure the best vertical accuracy, users should run RTK on the implement receiver at a location within 2 km (1 mile) of the RTK base station.

Surface Water Pro Plus uses many components that many growers already own, including:

• GS2 2600 Display
• GS3 2630 Display
• StarFire 3000 or StarFire 6000
• AutoTrac™ assisted steering system
• iGrade™ leveling system

Four components

Surface Water Pro Plus has four features

1. Survey mode: records elevation for later use
2. Levee mode: records and runs levee tracks
3. Basic ditching mode: run and record ditch tracks
4. Advanced ditching mode: allows users to plan, create, and run ditch tracks

Producers, who own Surface Water Pro, can get all the benefits of Surface Water Pro Plus with a simple upgrade activation. See a John Deere dealer for details.
