Components and Operation
2.1
Components in the Ground
The accuracy of the system is effected by
-
large metallic objects on the ground
-
metallic reinforcements within a close area of the guide wire.
Inductive loops have a large influence on the system's accuracy, (such as those
caused by steel mating). Individual metal bars have lesser effect upon the system.
Environmental conditions have no effect upon the system e.g.
-
snow, ice, water
-
oil, tar, sand, soil, dirt and such
There are however restrictions to the permissible length of the guide wire and their sur-
roundings, which will be described in more detail later.
