[QUOTE="Dave645, post: 7248400, member: 55822"] Thankfully they now are going to test this, and will be releasing a base station that is compatible with at least some Trimble gear, I hope they go one further and tell us what items are compatible in the Trimble range and what we need to do to get the FieldBee base station working on them. (Unlocks we need, or don’t need) So hopefully no more subscriptions. The other question I would like to know is, can any of the FieldBee. Items mix and match with other manufacturers items. So if, I have an older tractor where FieldBee steering motor stuff will not fit on the steering wheel but Trimble or others do, can a FieldBee roof receiver talk to other steering systems. With their software so we can just use tablets with their software. Their roof receiver but a compatible steering motor that maybe from another maker. the ability to open their system up to multiple steering motors will enlarge their market with existing users of other systems that don’t want to start from scratch when they have stuff already but FieldBee don’t support their tractors steering wheel. So the farmer has an old receiver non RTK and so look to update to a FieldBee one, but FieldBee don’t support their tractor but the farmer has say an old Trimble side mounted motor that runs on the steering wheel edge can the FieldBee receiver with a tablet running FieldBee software talk to the older Trimble steering motor? then fieldbee can do a configuration app that lets farmers select existing tech from other makers they own, and the app designs the minimum kit that FieldBee can supply that gives the outcome the farmer selects ie the different levels of GPS accuracy they require. All the way up to a kit including a base station, And full RTK. This would require them to do testing on other makers steering kits receivers etc but once done at least with the more popular kit out there, it would make it simple for new users to adapt to FieldBee kit without ripping out all their existing kit.
