SMART7
MULTI-FREQUENCY GNSS SMART
ANTENNA FEATURING NOVATEL’S
POWERFUL OEM7
®
TECHNOLOGY
MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE
The 555 channel receiver and VEXXIS® antenna inside the SMART7 allow it to receive
GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, Galileo and QZSS signals. Multiple GNSS signals deliver better
satellite availability under variable terrain and environmental conditions. The SMART7
also receives L-Band signals providing easy access to the world-wide correction
signals provided by TerraStar.
ALIGN
NovAtel® ALIGN® technology is optionally supported when combined with a second
SMART7 or NovAtel receiver to provide relative heading and velocity that can be
used to guide accessory vehicles. Wi-Fi can also be used to provide a wireless ALIGN
solution to simplify communications in implement guiding applications.
TERRAIN COMPENSATION FOR INCREASED ACCURACY
With optional integrated terrain compensation, the SMART7 improves guidance and
autosteer performance on uneven terrain and slopes by providing positions corrected
automatically for vehicle pitch and roll.
MAXIMUM ACCURACY
The SMART7 can provide a range of performance accuracies from dual-frequency
GLIDE® to full centimeter level RTK. TerraStar services provide decimeter or
centimeter level accuracy using globally transmitted satellite corrections.
MAXIMUM CONNECTIVITY
The SMART7 supports RS-232 and CAN-bus communications. Optional 2.4 GHz
Wi-Fi and 10/100 Ethernet connectivity allows connection to a vehicle’s Wi-Fi
network, routers, terminals or other SMART7 antennas.
DURABLE, FIELD-READY DESIGN
This rugged SMART7 antenna is enclosed in a durable, waterproof housing that meets
MIL-STD-810G environmental standards for many years of reliable use in the field.
Magnetic and screw mounting is supported. Wi-Fi and Ethernet connectivity can also
be used to receive RTK or TerraStar corrections over NTRIP.
