Oscar ProBase removable battery compartment

Two batteries, extended operation.

Two 7.4 V / 6400 mAh batteries provide up to 14 hours total operation while transmitting at 5 W.[3]

GNSS AND DURABILITY

Your reference in the field.

Multi-constellation tracking, ExtremeRTK™ technology and an industrial housing support reference-station measurements and correction generation.

Multi-constellation tracking

Track signals from different GNSS systems with 576 channels and deliver corrections to your survey workflow.

IP68 housing

Protection against dust and water, a −40 °C to +70 °C operating range and resistance to a 2 m pole drop onto concrete.

Onboard recording

Record GNSS data in 8 GB of storage. Use RINEX and other supported outputs in office workflows.

AERIAL AND GROUND SURVEYS

One reference.
Compatible field systems.

Build base-station infrastructure for survey teams and drone workflows using NTRIP. Confirm connection protocols, correction formats and coordinate-system compatibility during setup.

01

Define the base point

Enter reference coordinates and antenna height in the project coordinate system.

02

Select the broadcast mode

Configure correction transmission over UHF or the internet.

03

  1. Accuracy and initialisation times depend on satellite visibility, satellite geometry, multipath, atmospheric and survey conditions. ppm is the baseline-dependent error component; 1 ppm equals 1 mm per kilometre.
  2. Radio range depends on terrain, antenna height, line of sight and the radio environment. The 15 km value is not a fixed range achievable at every site.
  3. Battery life varies with operating mode, ambient temperature and battery condition. Dimensions and weight may vary with manufacturing processes and measurement methods.
