Abstract
A method for generating a new ground speed power take-off (G-PTO) map that includes a relationship between a current work vehicle speed and a target speed of a power take-off (PTO). The method includes setting a work vehicle speed for a point to be included in the new G-PTO map, setting a PTO speed for the point to be included in the new G-PTO map, plotting the point on the new G-PTO map, and plotting a line on the new G-PTO map based on the point.

A method for generating a new ground speed power take-off (G-PTO) map that includes a relationship between a current work vehicle speed and a target speed of a power take-off (PTO), the method comprising:
- setting a work vehicle speed for a point to be included in the new G-PTO map;
- setting a PTO speed for the point to be included in the new G-PTO map;
- plotting the point on the new G-PTO map;
- and
- plotting a line on the new G-PTO map based on the point;
- wherein
- the new G-PTO map is used to determine the target speed of the power take-off (PTO) of a work vehicle based on the current work vehicle speed of the work vehicle.
A method comprising:
- generating a new G-PTO map that includes a relationship between a current work vehicle speed and a target speed of a power take-off (PTO);
- wherein
- the generating the new G-PTO map includes setting a line directly onto the new G-PTO map using a touch screen;
- and
- the new G-PTO map is used to determine the target speed of the power take-off (PTO) of a work vehicle based on the current work vehicle speed of the work vehicle.
A method comprising:
- generating a new G-PTO map that includes a relationship between a current work vehicle speed and a target speed of a power take-off (PTO);
- wherein
- the new G-PTO map is generated based on one or more operator inputs to a user interface that set the relationship between the current work vehicle speed and the target speed of the power take-off (PTO);
- the relationship includes a line with a slope value set based on the one or more operator inputs;
- and
- the slope value is set along a continuous range of slope values;
- and
- the new G-PTO map is used to determine the target speed of the power take-off PTO) of a work vehicle based on the current work vehicle speed of the work vehicle.
