Has anyone tested compatibility with ARAG IBX100?

[Bozy26]

Hi everyone,

I'm building a project where AgOpenGPS and AgIsoVirtualTerminal both run on the same Windows tablet. AgOpenGPS/AgIO broadcasts speed and section data over UDP (localhost), which is picked up by a small bridge application (based on the seeder_example) and relayed to the VT over CAN via the AgIsoStack++ TC client. For real hardware, the tablet connects to the implement's ISOBUS network through a USB-CAN adapter (PCAN-USB).

Before connecting real hardware, I'd like to check compatibility with an ARAG IBX100 sprayer control unit (ISOBUS version). Has anyone here tried connecting an IBX100 (or any other ARAG ISOBUS ECU) to AgIsoVirtualTerminal? Specifically I'm wondering about:

Whether the IBX100's object pool renders correctly (no missing objects, correct layout)
Whether Task Controller communication (section control, rate control) works as expected
Any known quirks or workarounds needed, similar to the ProductIdentification PGN issue that was found with Kverneland implements (#54)

Any experience, logs, or even partial testing reports would be really helpful before I invest in the hardware. Happy to share back my own results once I get a unit to test with.

Thanks in advance!

Hi @Bozy26

Has anyone here tried connecting an IBX100 (or any other ARAG ISOBUS ECU) to AgIsoVirtualTerminal? Specifically I'm wondering about:

Yes I did tested it last year's Agritechnica but it did not loaded at all. Unfortunately I do not have any logs from it. I am unsure what functionality was it loaded with as it was part of a demo installation.

Any known quirks or workarounds needed, similar to the ProductIdentification PGN issue that was found with Kverneland implements (#54)

That was not a necessary change, but a nice to have feature 😄

If you get your paws on an unit I will try to help you get it rolling.

Thanks a lot for the quick reply, @martonmiklos!

Good to know it didn't load at Agritechnica - that's useful context even without the logs. I actually have an IBX100 unit already, but I haven't got a physical CAN connection (USB-CAN adapter) set up yet to test it against AgIsoVirtualTerminal. Once that's sorted, I'll make sure to generate a full diagnostic package (object pool + logs) right from the start so we actually have something to work with this time, unlike the demo booth situation.

I'll report back here once I have results, good or bad. Really appreciate the offer to help - I'll take you up on it!
