StarFire iTC Receiver

StarFire iTC Accuracy

StarFire iTC is a twelve channel, dual-frequency differential GPS receiver with integrated Terrain Compensation (iTC). The integration eliminates the need for a stand-alone Terrain Compensation Module (TCM) for improved guidance performance.

Starfire iTC provides three different levels of accuracy. It can be upgraded to higher levels of accuracy as farming needs change without buying a new receiver.

Receiver is located on cab of machine. It receives global positioning and differential correction signal through a single receiver and integrates signal for use with system.

Terrain Compensation Module (TCM) is integrated into receiver and is a navigational aid used with receiver to enhance vehicle position and course parameters that GPS provides. TCM corrects for vehicle dynamics such as roll on side-slopes, rough terrain or varying soil conditions.

Signal Level Accuracy
SF1 +/- 25 cm (10 in.)
SF2 +/- 10 cm (4 in.)
RTK +/- 2.5 cm (1 in.)
