The new CIS+ is aimed primarily at customers who want to work more conveniently and efficiently with additional electronic features but do not need all the functionality of the new CEBIS. CIS+ will be available for the first time in the new AXION 900 and ARION 600/500 tractor series.
The new CIS+ system has an extremely clear layout and is very user-friendly, with many new, convenient functions. These include a DRIVESTICK to operate the CMATIC or HEXASHIFT transmission, an ELECTROPILOT four-way control lever with direction change, and the integrated 7-inch CIS colour display for viewing and configuring all the main machine functions. It also differs significantly from the CIS system in that up to six electronic spool valves are available.
CIS+ with continuously variable CMATIC transmission
Thanks to CIS+, the proven, continuously variable CMATIC transmission is now available for the first time without the deluxe CEBIS system. With CIS+, the CMATIC transmission is controlled from the updated DRIVESTICK in the armrest. The DRIVESTICK comes with proportional control, which means that the further it is pushed or pulled when in drive lever mode, the faster the transmission accelerates or brakes the tractor. When accelerator pedal mode is selected, the DRIVESTICK can be used to manually intensify or reduce the engine braking effect. A cruise control button is also provided on the DRIVESTICK. The current forward speed can be saved simply by pressing this button. The convenient and highly efficient HEXASHIFT transmission with the new SMART STOP function and the HEXACTIV powershift unit with cruise control are also available with the CIS+ system (ARION 600/500 only).
ELECTROPILOT four-way control lever with integrated reverser
In addition, CIS+ offers the new, ergonomically shaped ELECTROPILOT four-way control lever which provides a high level of convenience, particularly for front loader work or in combined operations. The hydraulic functions are controlled as usual by means of the four-way control lever, while an integrated reverser in the lever allows forward or reverse travel to be selected at the touch of a button. This means that the driver can, for example, carry out all the operations associated with front loader work using just one lever.
