Case IH A-PF-174 - Display – AFS Pro 1200 Display: Prescription size exceeds limit

The variable-rate prescription (Rx) file being imported into the display exceeds the maximum file size allowed by the system's memory or processing limits. Because the file is too large, the display cannot load or process the application map.

1. 1

   Check the size of the prescription shapefile (.shp, .shx, .dbf) on your USB drive or within the AFS Connect portal

2. 2

   Verify file complexity, as extremely complex maps with thousands of micro-zones or highly detailed polygons often cause file sizes to balloon beyond processing capabilities

3. 3

   Check the storage drive to ensure the USB drive is functioning properly and hasn't triggered secondary data management faults (such as A-PF-170 'Destination Drive Full' or A-PF-172 'Source Drive Removed')

1. 1

   Remove the Media

   Remove the USB drive from the AFS Pro 1200 display, or log into your AFS Connect portal on your computer.

2. 2

   Open the Prescription

   Open the original prescription file in your desktop farm management software (e.g., AFS Mapping & Records, SMS, etc.).

3. 3

   Decrease the File Size

   Decrease prescription file size by reducing the number of management zones, smoothing or simplifying the polygon edges to reduce data points, or splitting a massive multi-field prescription into individual, field-specific prescription files.

4. 4

   Export the File

   Export the newly optimized prescription shapefile back to the USB drive or push it wirelessly via the AFS Connect portal.

5. 5

   Re-Import

   Insert the USB drive back into the AFS Pro 1200 display and attempt the data import process again.
