Introduction
This configuration manual is intended for configuring a
Viper 4 field computer with Raven 600S smart antenna
(Figure 1). This configuration manual applies to
SBGuidance version 4.0.x or later.
As a new alternative to the Viper 4 TWIN with internal
dual antenna receiver we can offer the Viper 4 with the
Raven 600S smart antenna. The Viper 4 field computer
doesn’t have a build-in GPS receiver, but uses the
external 600S smart antenna. This 600S antenna is fully
scalable which means you can order it with SBAS,
Satellite GS or RTK accuracy. The 600S comes standard
with a dual frequency receiver and antenna. And with
that it is able to use the GLIDE technology and
GLONASS in standard. SBAS + GLIDE has a standard
accuracy of +/-20 cm (pass-to-pass) and is perfect for
applications such as section control.
The antenna can be upgraded to Satellite GS accuracy.
This correction requires a payed subscription. With that
the antenna reaches +/- 3 cm accuracy pass-to-pass
(initial warm-up time is at least 20 min). The correction
signal is received through a geostatic satellite.
The Raven 600S can be upgraded to RTK (+/- 2 cm) as
well. The corrections will be received through a
Slingshot modem. An RTK subscription is needed.
