Check receiver unlocked to Centerpoint?

[JonL]

I acquired a Case AG372 receiver with a second hand tractor. I assumed it was just EGNOS but I see it has Omnistar and RTK options on the screen. Does this mean it is unlocked to Centerpoint/RTK or are the options always there? Can't get an answer from local Case dealer (I didn't buy it from them). If it is unlocked I'll get the software upgraded and a CP subscription, but obviously need to confirm it will work first.

I believe if you have the rtk option it is already unlocked. We had a 2nd hand kit that came with a combine and that was the same, the dealer assured us its unlocked and we was very lucky as the rtk unlock code is expensive

Thanks. I think you’re right and now had it confirmed it’s unlocked

Tidy job. Big saving if you do decide to go t rtk.
We're using rtx rangepoint but id like to try centrepoint this autumn if i can, unlock is already activated so just the subscription to pay

If yours is unlocked to RTK you can get Centerpoint fast for £650pa from Vantage Ag.

If your unlocked to RTK why not go RTK? You will need a modem but if you sign up for two years with RTK Farming we will supply it for free.

How much would that work out for 2 years subscription?
