How difficult is it to get started with GradeMetrix Machine Control?
Most operators that have not tried machine control of any type agree that using something new can be quite daunting. Whether you a new operator or an experienced one, GradeMetrix uses a very simple user interface that is intuitive and easy to understand.
What kind of range can I get with these units?
All the receivers we carry come with at least a built in 1- or 2-watt radio. Our E800 has an internal 5-watt radio for a range of 10-12 kms. The typical range for our units is 5 – 6km in ideal conditions. If you need to go farther than this, AMS offers many options to extend your range, whether you need a base booster radio like the TRU35, or a network option like NTrip Caster, we have what you need to get the job done.
How accurate is the receiver without receiving base corrections?
An e-Survey GNSS receiver can achieve 20-25 cm in X & Y in DGPS mode with just one WASS satellite. It can also achieve 4-8 cm in X & Y in L-Band mode via Atlas global correction service H-10 service without being in RTK mode.
Does your product have all the constellations activated?
Hemisphere GNSS receivers come fully loaded with the ability to track and make measurements from all 5 satellites constellation.
Why does Hemisphere GPS cost less than Trimble and Topcon?
Hemisphere has been making GNSS components for the past 30 years, initially being introduced to the OEM, Marine and Agricultural GNSS markets. In the last 8 years have they focused on the Land Surveying and Construction markets. To gain rapid market share in these markets, Hemisphere GNSS has introduced very aggressive pricing and advanced RTK GNSS technology within these industries.
