What is IBSS? • Internet Base Station Service • IBSS is a new web service delivered through the Trimble Connected Community (TCC). • The service provides Trimble GPS base station owners with the ability to simply connect their base stations to the Internet Base Station Service (IBSS) using LAN or cellular modem technology and serve GPS corrections over longer distances than normally possible with radio and repeater technology.
TCC makes it simple Trimble Hosted Server Internet Internet Rovers Single Base
How can I use IBSS? • Base Station • Extend GPS coverage to remote or offsite areas of projects (e.g. borrow pits and dump sites or other projects within a 30km range.) • Rovers • can connect to the service using cellular technology and select the closest available RTK service from a list of accessible base stations on the IBSS server. • Rebroadcaster • SNB900 can be connected to the service using LAN or cellular technology and rebroadcast RTK corrections from a base station on the IBSS server to rovers or machines in the vicinity using the standard 900 MHz radio solution
How does IBSS help? • IBSS is extremely simple to use • eliminates the IT knowledge usually required to connect a Base and Rover using a cellular connection. • IBSS provides a higher return on investment • better utilization of existing infrastructure • reduces the demands for the purchase of additional equipment • can service a larger geographical area than UHF radio • Ideal for multiple projects within a small geographic area (30km radius) or for solving radio outage problems in difficult terrain. • IBSS is localized to the users own TCC organization • can be 100% under control • provides a single baseline RTK solution • Managed Base stations can be shared between project partners using the Trimble Connected Community partnership process.
What’s the cost? Optional Components 60 Day Trial Organization (Unlimited Licenses & Features) $0 (10 GB Storage) Visualization User License $40 / Mo (10 GB Storage) Includes All features Collaboration User License $20 / Mo (5 GB Storage) Excludes VO Device License $30 / Mo (5 GB Storage) Device only – No TCC UI Site Camera Base Organization (1 Admin + 1 Visualization) $40 / Mo (10 GB Storage) Server Sync
Price Example • Customer Scenario Example 1: • Customer wants to: • sync data from field to office • have his site supervisor access folders in TCC • Have all field crews using IBSS from a centralized IBS located at the office • He has 2 TSC2’s and 1 Tablet in the field and an SPS852 Base at the office 60 Day Trial Organization (Unlimited Licenses & Features) $0 + + + + • Customer Needs the following license for TCC: • 1 -- TCC Base Organization – 1 Admin and 1 Visualization License • 4 -- Devices Licenses • Total monthly price = $40 + $20+ $20 + $20 + $20 = $120 • (Site Supervisor can use the visualization that comes with the base organization)
New Part Numbers Comments: Prices are monthly recurring costs TCC Server Sync is a one time charge for the application
Internet Base Station (IBS) • Supports Internet Base Station Service (IBSS) • SCS900 support in v2.70 or later • SNM910 user interface is provided by the SPS Modular f/w v4.15 or later • Easy IBSS setup using: • SCS900 connected to SPS Base • Power up SPS Base with pre-configured appfile • SPS Base Web Browser interface
Example Internet Base Station (IBS) • SNM910 – GSM Modem • Kit includes a mounting bracket • IP67 when SIM door fastened • Power options: • SPS852 internal battery • Lemo cable from external battery • Input shared with SPS so only 1 cable required
IBSS Field Base – SCS900 • Settings – Connectivity Settings – SNM910 Configuration • Use the APN database to provide the GPRS access details based on Country, Provider and Plan • Or type in the details directly
IBSS Field Base – SCS900 • Set up Base using ‘Via IBSS’ • If an SNM910 is detected then the Device ID will be auto generated by the Base receiver • Just need Org and password
IBSS Field Base – SCS900 • The Base will output the same CMR corrections over the internal radio and IBSS by default • On a calibrated site the Control point name will be used as the IBSS Base Station name and will also populate the Reference Station Name field in the receiver.
IBSS Field Base – Web browser • SNM910 Modem menu will appear if the device is detected • Open the Status and check: • RSSI (the GPRS signal strength) • Operating Mode (as set in the Receiver configuration page)
IBSS Field Base – Web browser • Use ‘Change GPRS Service’ to select the GPRS access information based on Country, Provider and Plan • Or manually enter the APN, CID, Username and password • Save the settings and press Connect • Monitor the State until the Modem has connected to the Internet
IBSS Field Base – Web browser • Open the I/O page to configure the IBSS/NTRIP Server • Use IBSS Mode and enter Org and password • Enable and press OK Note: the Base Name is set in the Reference Station page
IBSS Field Base – Web browser • Green status indicates the connection has been made to IBSS and the output is as indicated • Yellow status indicates the connection is in progress or has failed
900MHz Rebroadcaster • SNM910 – GSM Modem • Kit includes a mounting bracket • IP67 when SIM door fastened • Power options: • SPS852 internal battery • Lemo cable from external battery • Input shared with SNB900 so only 1 cable required
900MHz Rebroadcaster • SNM910 user interface is provided by the SNB900 f/w v2.50 or later • Supports access to IBSS and VRS • Base or Mountpoint name must be known • Configuration via web UI in ‘Easy IP’ mode • Settings saved for field mobilisation • Cellular connection will auto restart when powered up in the field. • No configuration via SCS900 • Does not provide list of IBSS bases for selection
What to order – SNM910 • 65910-51 Kit – Radio, Cellular, SNM910 for SPS Modular receiver • 65910-90 Kit – Radio, Cellular, SNM910 for SNB900
Value Proposition of Internet based correction services IBSS The base station is under contractor’s control Easy to register via TCC - saving IT challenges Use base station radio transmitter for site operations – no cell costs Swap to Internet connectivity in black spots or longer range VRS, Network RTK No need to purchase base stations Benefits of real time quality checking by provider Greater accuracy at longer range from base stations But closest base station may be distant from job site
