Memory Cards

The following characteristics are required of memory cards you intend to
use with the monitor:

Type 1 or Type 2 PCMCIA (68-pin) SRAM memory cards

Card sizes of .5 kilobytes and 1, 2, and 4 megabytes

Memory cards with 200 nanosecond (ns) speed ratings are desired.


NOTE: 1 Meg memory cards can be ordered from your Ag Leader
Technology
dealer.

GPS Receiver

Almost all GPS receivers made for agriculture applications are compatible
with the PF3000 and thus meet the requirements listed below. Ag Leader
Technology
sells a Coast Guard compatible receiver, the GPS 2000 and also
a combined Coast Guard and Satellite differential compatible receiver, the
GPS2100. The GPS receiver must be configured to send GPS data
according to the following parameters:

NMEA standard data output protocol

4800-X-8-1 communications protocol

GGA data string—the only data string needed

Send all messages once per second.


NOTE: If you use the Ag Leader GPS 2000/2100, Add-On GPS 3000/3100,
Trimble AgGPS 120, 122, 132 or other high accuracy receiver that outputs
the VTG data string, you can obtain ground speed readings from the GPS
signal.
