EZ-Guide 250
Entry Level Lightbar Guidance System
with Color Display, WAAS GPS Accuracy, and Data Logging
The
new EZ-Guide 250 lightbar guidance system, announced January 2008, features an intuitive, easy to read color LCD display, data logging functions and submeter accuracy using WAAS. This system is a great value at a retail price of $1,495! Release date is planned for March.
The EZ-Guide 250 has a 4.3-inch color display with 15 guidance LED lights, and “overhead” or “perspective” views of the operation. With the data logging function, users can record the days work and transfer it to a PC via a USB flash drive for creating printed maps and reports. The unit supports multiple guidance patterns, including the FreeForm™ guidance pattern, providing unlimited patterns and shapes for users to find the most desirable pattern for specific fields.
The EZ-Guide 250 is compatible with the EZ-Steer assisted-steering system, giving operators the ability to upgrade their guidance systems. The EZ-Guide 250/EZ-Steer combination guidance system can be moved from vehicle to vehicle giving users increased flexibility for their precision farming purchases.
The new EZ-Guide 250 includes all the guidance patterns, the same WAAS GPS receiver, and most features of the very popular EZ-Guide 500 guidance system - at a very low price. The differences are the smaller screen, the WAAS-only GPS receiver (no optional OmniSTAR or RTK), and no compatibility with the EZ-Boom application control system.
