APOLLO
The Future of
Seeding Technology
• Topcon industry leadership in air seeder
technology for more than 20 years
• Easy-to-use user interface through
Topcon Horizon software
• ISO UT interface compatibility with existing
tractor terminals
• Expansion modules for increased control
If you want to know where seeding technology is headed, take a look at the new Topcon Apollo application controllers.
Apollo is an entirely new concept in machine control ECU’s that brings industry-leading features in an integrated solution
to small grain seeding systems. Apollo ECU’s are easy-to-install, easy-to-use, stackable, weatherproof, ISO compatible,
and most importantly, offer virtually unlimited capabilities.
Apollo application control ECU’s are configurable to support a wide range of air seeders – virtually every brand currently
on the market. From simple single product seeding to multi-product seed, chemical and fertilizer applications – Apollo
ECU’s running with Topcon GNSS autosteering bring it all together in a synergistic system offering unmatched efficiency
and productivity.
Topcon X30 console and Horizon software
The Topcon X30 console, exclusive with Horizon software, give Apollo an advanced, one touch interface in an easy-touse, high visibility format for unmatched control in today’s market. Combining rate control, path planning, high accuracy
GNSS steering and full agronomic data control that will set new standards in the seeder market.
Apollo offers up to eight product control channels and can run Variable Rate Control on all eight simultaneously including
liquid, dry and NH3. It offers Section Control for dry, liquid or NH3 on each boom independently, and optional blockage
monitoring of 100+ lines.
ISO UT interface for ISO compliant consoles
Full function ISO client feature means Apollo runs on a standard ISOBUS network, allowing blockage features and up to
4 tanks or bins for product control to be displayed on ISO compliant terminals. Additionally, the Apollo Task Controller
function supports advanced features, such as variable rate.
The Apollo system is modularized and solid state – no moving parts or solder connections make it very robust and
reliable. Simple LEDs make for easy troubleshooting should any problems arise.
