Enhancer
The GPS Enhancer is the component that allows the SmarTrax system to
accurately hold the line in decimetric mode by removing variations due to
antenna movement from the GPS data stream. By removing antenna
motion, overall system accuracy is greatly improved. GPS course and
position messages from the receiver are automatically compensated for
machine movement, resulting in improved overall system performance.
The GPSE (GPS Enhancer) corrects GGA and VTG messages that are
affected by machine movement and GPS errors. The GPSE has an ‘Auto-
baud’ feature allowing it to lock on to any baud rate coming in. The output
will be set the same as the input.
Note: Using 5 Hz receivers will limit speeds to 10 mph.
