1 VRS Systems and DCM-300

2 VRS: S How o itt works? o s Reference stations continuously y transmits GNSS information to the VRS central server Position Power your Ag receiver and cell modem and connect to the VRS Network

3 VRS: How it works? VRS Provider delivers RTK corrections tailored for your geographic location Complete your farming and precision agriculture project VRS

4 VRS Pros and Cons Benefits of VRS: May offer better signal coverage in rough terrain if the local l cellular l network is robust and provides good data coverage. May provide correction solutions to a geographic region currently not serviced by Trimble RTK Network Offers an alternative correction source agricultural applications. Better accuracy that SBAS (i.e: Omnistar XP/HP) correction. Drawbacks of VRS: Signal (Time) latency may vary due to cellular network congestion. Dependant on third parties for maintenance and service of cellular network and VRS Data servers. ers VRS is not FREE. The data is available to the public for free, but end-users will need to pay for a cellular data plan. Cellular Data coverage / service is limited in rural regions.

5 Example: GSM Data Coverage For use with Ag3000 or DCM-300

7 VRS Technology Business Model This is a service available, no direct investment from the dealer Trimble VRS Now business model Each CNH Dealers can be a VRS Now Partner Each dealer will support and service the solution Dealers commission per signal 20 % commission i the 1st year (to include sales cost, subscription and installation services) 5% the second year SIM card not always included, additional GPRS cost Other VRS provider (Leica, Geo ++, ) 7 To check in each country individually Can they provide CMR correction format Price and commission up to the provider, SIM card included? We can be compatible but can t guaranty the accuracy

8 VRS Technology Services You pay for the below access information which you enter into your display for activation, example below: From your GPRS provider - APN: web.vodafone.de - User name: vodafone - Password: vofafone - CPIN: **** From the VRS provider - Network details: IP address: Port: 2190 Mount Point: - User details: Username: Password: TVN_VRS florent test 8
