The next generation of Ag Leader displays is here. The new InCommand Go 16 and Go 10 are larger than their predecessors and come packed with new features. 

“The InCommand Go Series is a pretty drastic change from our previous display generations,” says Logan Handsaker, product management representative. “The obvious difference is that they’ve gotten larger.”

But beyond the larger dimensions, the series has improved functionality, better visibility and easier internet connectivity from the previous display models released about a decade ago, Handsaker says.

In the last 10 years, Handsaker says technological expectations have changed. Farmers have fully embraced and adopted technology across the farm. The latest displays are designed to integrate with the advancements in planting, spraying and harvesting systems that are driving today’s agricultural machines. 

“Because farmers are performing and managing several functions at once, they need to be able to see all that information at the same time. The larger viewing area on the InCommand Go 16 lets you see more without the hassle of pressing buttons to switch between screens or compromising the visibility of the map,” says Luke Bunkers, a product specialist with the brand. “The ability to view and map real-time data and layer historical reference maps allows you to make better decisions while operating.”

High-resolution touchscreen

The InCommand Go offers a high-resolution touchscreen and an intuitive interface that lets the operator access real-time information without compromising mapping visibility. They’re compatible with a mixed fleet and are intentionally “future-proof.”

“The InCommand Go seamlessly supports today’s technology regardless of equipment brand and lays a foundation for future innovations,” Handsaker says.

With faster processing times over the previous version, the InCommand Go displays make it easier for farmers to manage complex operations in the field and improve decision-making.

The InCommand Go 16 comes standard with modular cellular hardware that attaches to the display. It’s optional for the InCommand Go 10. Connecting the display to the internet supports features that utilize AgFiniti, Ag Leader’s cloud-based platform, such as Remote Support, DisplayCast and CartAce. These features provide farmers access to their maps and data anytime, anywhere, and share information between Ag Leader displays like field names, boundaries, coverage maps and guidance lines.   

More information can be seen

“The big thing was going larger, so we can present more information to the grower as they’re operating,” Handsaker says. “You can manage and monitor implement functions, guidance and steering without having to navigate away from the map screen.”

The 10-inch version is a cost-effective display that can stand on its own or serve as a companion to the primary farm display. It comes standard with AutoSwath and offers features such as advanced seed monitoring and variety tracking. An entry-level guidance package is also available for farmers who may want more display functionality in the future.

“We know farmers expect their display to do more in the cab including giving them access to more data. It’s crucial our display continues to evolve with our customers’ needs, while keeping the familiarity of the features they’ve grown to love,” says Mike Myers, vice president of finance and engineering at Ag Leader. “With the new InCommand Go displays, Ag Leader can greatly enhance the user experience while keeping the core things that make InCommand the best display on the market.”
