New Bale Band-It Monitor app for iPad®! iBand-It brings a new level to the Bale Band-It’s operation featuring an in-depth monitoring structure that informs the operator on bale and bundle counts, bales per hour, baler stroke gauge, Band-It operation status, busted bale alert, tie cycle, and bundle unloading. Features also include controls to manipulate the Band-It to tailor to your needs as well as a GPS mapping system that allows operators to see how well each field produces. iBand-It also provides performance information in key areas to prevent downtime, alerts of any maintenance needs, has a built in Band-It learning center and manual, in-depth step by step troubleshooting system! The iBand-it app connects to the Bale Band-It via Bluetooth. Important Note: This app will only work with the Bale Band-It equipment that has the new Bluetooth LE module. In order to utilize the stroke counter features, the GFC Baler Stroke Counter module is also needed.
