Abstract
A system for controlling harvesting implement position of an agricultural harvester includes a harvesting implement configured to be coupled to the harvester to permit adjustment of a current position of the implement relative to a field surface. Additionally, the system includes a sensor configured to capture data indicative of the current position of the implement relative to the field surface, a display device, and a controller communicatively coupled to the sensor and the display device. As such, the controller is configured to monitor the current position of the implement based on the data captured by the sensor. Furthermore, the controller is further configured to initiate display of a graphical user interface on the display device, with the graphical user interface displaying a first interface element associated with the current position of the implement relative to a second interface element associated with a reference position of the implement.
