Trimble MS990 Smart GPS Antenna
The MS990 is the only commercially available integrated smart GPS antenna that offers the performance enhancements of a new Trimble RTK engine and supports the newest GPS signals.
Each unit contains a GPS receiver, antenna, and isolation system all in a single housing. It is designed specifically for installation on the blade or cab for use with GCS900 3D Grade Control Systems.
The MS990 uses an advanced RTK engine to provide faster system initialization times when satellite lock is lost. It also allows the GCS900 Grade Control System to increase machine productivity and utilization in tough areas of the jobsite, where tree canopies or other obstructions may exist.
Using a combined GPS+GLONASS positioning solution, system downtime is reduced during periods when GPS satellite availability is limited. The MS990 can also utilize signals from additional satellite constellations such as GLONASS. When combined with signals from GPS, this reduces system downtime when satellite availability is obstructed, such as when working against high walls or in deep cuts.
* An advanced RTK engine for faster initialization times when satellite lock is lost and enhanced performance near obstructions
* Advanced foliage detection when working near trees
* Support for the GPS modernized L2C and the planned L5 signals
* Single, rugged cab or blade mountable unit - GPS antenna, receiver and isolation system
* On-machine I/O connection by single data cable connector
* An easy to use removable mounting bracket with quick release adjustment ratchet
These advances improve the contractor's ability to work in tougher environments, at longer ranges, and with faster initialization times. This results in increased productivity and reduced downtime on the construction job site.
