Automation of Multiple Machines is NORMAL work for a GPS System

The hardest part of getting started with a GPS Machine Control system, is getting STARTED!

Contractors find that to automate machines for GPS on a per machine basis, gets cheaper the more machines they have. Simply put the extra costs associated with a GPS base station are diluted on a per machine basis.
Cost per machine = (Base n rover/machines) + Machine GPS cost

GPS Equipment itself is able to handle multiple machines in most (Cellphone to base station excluded) configurations without extra cost involved. Since the radio signals produced by the base station are not meant for any machine in particular, similar to FM radio, they are broadcast to all machines in range. Simply install a control box, receiver, mast, and display in any machine within range of a base station and you are in business. The base station can transmit to literally hundreds of machines on the same jobsite simultaneously.
