Combine operation with operating data register

Abstract

A method for operating a combine which, for optimizing the harvesting output, is continuously externally controlled by an operator via a control processor (ST) containing set-point and/or limit operating data and is internally controlled by means of continuous measuring and evaluation of actual operating data (VI, SBI, SHI), in particular traveling data, wherein the absolute and/or relative location coordinates (X, Y) of the combine are continuously detected and, assigned to them, the respective area-specific yield measuring data (EM) are stored, in particular in the form of a yield data register (EK) to be used as a historical data register (HK), wherein the control processor (ST) of the combine has access to a historical data register (HK) and addresses them, in each case prior to the actual coordinates, with the respective location coordinates (X, Y) of the combine, linked with its respective travel data (VI, SBI, SHI) and historical data (DH) stored there, reads them and from them determines fresh set-point or limit operating data (VS, SBS, SHS) and actually specifies them.
