JCA Electronics – Vireo Tablet

Tech Specs: The JCA Vireo is an evolution of the ISOBUS Virtual Terminal (VT) to combine the implement compatibility benefits of the ISO 11783 standard with the technology capabilities of tablet devices. The platform consists of any of the JCA Wi-Fi enabled devices (most commonly the JCA Hummingbird) and the JCA Vireo app (available for both Android and iOS devices). The Hummingbird (or other JCA controller) connects to a tractor’s ISOBUS network, and communicates the relevant ISOBUS VT messages over Wi-Fi to a tablet running the app, which then performs the functions of an ISOBUS compatible Virtual Terminal (or Universal Terminal), allowing monitoring and control of ISOBUS compatible implements.

The Vireo system is available as an out-of-the-box VT solution using a dedicated app, or can be integrated into a custom app for OEM solutions.
