Exporting Raw Master Files from Case IH FieldOps

This guide explains how to download the original Case IH machine data required for processing harvest data in INVISION.

Export Steps

  1. Sign in to Case IH FieldOps.

  2. Select the correct company or grower.

  3. Open Setup from the left navigation.

  4. Select Files.

  5. Open Master Files.

  6. Locate the CN1 Data File associated with the combine.

  7. Use the Actions menu to download the file.

  8. Keep the downloaded ZIP unchanged.

  9. Upload the ZIP directly to INVISION.

Identifying Harvest Files

Look for files associated with combine equipment, such as:

  • Case IH AXIAL-FLOW 8240

  • Case IH AXIAL-FLOW 7230

  • Other Case IH combine models

Harvest master files are typically larger CN1 ZIP files. Do not select files associated with tractors, planters, or sprayers when looking for harvest data.

If multiple combines were used, download each applicable master file and upload the ZIPs to INVISION separately.

Important

Do not extract, rename, reorganize, or repackage the downloaded ZIP. INVISION needs the original CN1 folder structure and supporting files.

The date in the filename or the Added date may not match the field activity date. Use the equipment type and available activity information to identify the correct files.

Master File vs. Map Export

Master File Processed Map Export
Original machine data Generated visualization
Downloaded from Setup → Files → Master Files Exported from the field map
Contains detailed harvest records Contains summarized map layers
Includes yield, moisture, coordinates, timestamps, and equipment information May contain only colored ranges and large polygons
Required for INVISION processing Usually insufficient for harvest processing

What Not to Export

Do not export data from the three-dot menu beside layers such as:

  • Yield Dry

  • Moisture

  • Speed

  • Fuel

  • Elevation

Those options export processed shapefile map layers, not the original combine data.

Before Uploading to INVISION

Confirm that:

  • The file type is CN1 Data File.

  • The source equipment is a combine.

  • The file remains in its original ZIP format.

  • Multiple combine files are uploaded separately.

  • The file was downloaded from Master Files, not from the field map.

Troubleshooting

The harvest date is not shown in the filename

Do not rely only on the filename. Check the equipment and download the applicable combine master files.

There are multiple combine files

Download all files that may contain the harvest activity. Different combines may contain separate portions of the field.

Only shapefiles are available

The data was likely exported from the processed map. Return to Setup → Files → Master Files and download the original CN1 ZIP.

The Master Files page is unavailable
