Leica CGR10 & 15 Radio Modems Designed to Make RTK Surveys Flexible
October 13, 2011
Leica Geosystems has announced the CGR10 and CGR15 radio modems for its Leica Viva CS 10 & CS 15 Controllers. Both modems are designed to be an extension to the Leica Viva NetRover and Leica Viva GS12 rover. They can also be used with the Leica Viva GS10, GS15, and the new GS25 receiver.
The Leica CGR10 and 15 are receive-only UHF radios that can be mounted directly onto the Leica Viva CS10 & CS15 field controllers. Rugged, with an IP67 rating, the radio maintains the CS10 and CS15 field controllers’ ergonomics and integrates seamlessly with any existing Leica Viva GNSS system, Leica said.
The Leica CGR10 transforms the Leica Viva NetRover, consisting of a Leica Viva CS10 and the GS08 receiver, into a fully flexible RTK rover that supports both GSM/GPRS and UHF communications, Leica said. Power is provided directly from the Leica Viva CS10 & 15 field controllers, and allows six hours on constant use. Together with the new SmartWorx Viva v4.0, the CGR10 and 15 provide compatibility with Satel, PacCrest GMSK, and TrimTalk protocols.
The Leica CGR10 and 15 will be available with Leica SmartWorx Viva v4.0 in November.
