SXBlue II GPS Unit
$2,095.00

“Wireless and Capable of Sub Meter Accuracy”

The SXBlue II is a compact GPS and SBAS module that offers sub-meter performance suitable for a variety of applications including Forestry, Mining, Machine Navigation, Precision Agriculture, GIS and Mapping, at a price that you can afford. Bluetooth Enabled, the SXBlue II provides a wireless link with any Bluetooth enabled PDA, computer or device, thus eliminating the need for cumbersome cabling. The SXBlue II delivers sub-meter positioning accuracy and low power consumption.

It uses a new GPS engine architecture that provides faster startup and acquisition times. With a current almanac and ephemeris, the SXBlue II will provide a position within 35 seconds. If it’s been powered within the last couple hours, the SXBlue II will provide a position within approximately 20 seconds. The unit works with the US Federal Aviation Administration’s Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS).

The SXBlue II features Bluetooth, RS-232 serial, and USB ports.  All of which may be independently configured for versatility. For example, the ports might be set to output either NMEA 183 or RTCM-104. The RS-232 might be configured for RTCM-104 input.

A series of LED lights on the front panel provide useful monitoring information such as Power, GPS, DGPS, SBAS Lock and Bluetooth connection. COAST™ Technology allows the SXBlue II to use old correction data for up to 45 minutes or more without seriously affecting the quality of your positioning. Using COAST™, the SXBlue II is less likely to be affected by differential outages due to differential signal blockages, weak signal, or interference. No other product offers this flexibility.
