Mining: Products: Terralite XPS Transmit Station

Ground-based Signal Generator For 24/7 Real-Time Positioning Coverage

The Terralite XPS Transmit Station is an integral part of Novariant Terralite XPS positioning infrastructure. By broadcasting a proprietary new signal, called “XPS,” to one or more mobile GPS+XPS receivers, users can benefit from continuous real-time positioning information, when and where GPS can’t. Mounted on mobile stands and powered by a solar panel array, Terralite transmit stations are self-sufficient and easy to deploy around the work site. The self-surveying Terralite system can be quickly and easily repositioned to ensure maximum position coverage.

Standard Features:

• Single channel XPS code/carrier broadcast
• Automatic self-surveying
• Rugged, sealed enclosure
• Solar power array for continuous operation
• Semi-permanent steel-frame stand
• Integrated radio modem and antenna
• Programmable via RS-232 serial port

Industrial-Strength Positioning

Field rugged and designed to withstand the harshest of environments, the Terralite XPS transmitters are easily installed and positioned around the rim of the pit. After setup, the transmitters automatically begin to provide independent, yet interoperable, XPS signals to any number of Novariant GPS+XPS receivers.

Compatible with Precision GPS Mining Applications

Developed for machine guidance, control, and surveying applications that require fast, low-latency positioning, Terralite trasmitters and GPS+XPS receivers are compatible with any GPS-enabled applications that accept standard positioning inputs, such as Modular’s ProVision™ drill, dozer, and shovel systems.
