Forsberg Services Ltd. (FSL) announced the release of its new OEM628 converter board solution to allow its customers to use NovAtel’s new flagship receivers while retaining their proprietary OEM2 or OEM3 hard and software setup. In the past receiver upgrades often left clients with a substantial downtime of their navigational equipment while posing risks to operational performance, equipment as well as personal safety. FSL’s converter board helps to overcome this problem by slotting seamlessly into the client’s system setup which allows users to harness the enhanced receiver functionality of NovAtel’s OEM628 cards right away. The new hardware kit offers serial port communication (RS232), one PPS and connects with the existing VME adapter while offering the users L1 and L2 capabilities. The converter board not only matches the physical specifications of NovAtel’s previous OEM2 and OEM3 receivers but is able to match the OEM3 output format expected by a proprietary system. This enables users to harness substantial cost savings by retaining their proven hard and software setup while enjoying the improved GNSS capabilities of NovAtel’s OEM628 receivers. As FSL’s converter board constitutes an off the shelf product orders can be accepted from now on.
