I'm not following why this would be desirable with the situation that you describe. Since the Ag Leader apparently has its own GPS and the EZ-Guide 500 is a complete GPS system you could certainly have both operating in their own separate worlds. As you are aware the GPS from the 500 can feed the Ag Leader. I see no reason to try to do it the other way around even if you could.
The reason was that he has two tractors, one EZ Guide 500 with trimble GPS antenna, and one Ag Leader GPS1500 receiver.
I talked to him today and explained the 500 could not get GPS from the Ag Leader unit. He is ok with moving his antenna if the second tractor gets equipped with an antenna cable, and cables for the 500.
Now I just have to familiarize myself with the necessary cabling for a 500. Mounting seems to be easy, if it takes the same RAM mount as an Ag Leader display. Will it need any other cables beyond a power cable and antenna coax? |
