1. EGPS. Trainer:

The unit mainly consists of two elements: the unit-interface, which includes the GPS receiver element with a series of status indicators and the antenna in charge of the satellites signals reception.
Metallic box with handles.
The communication between the unit and the PC is through a USB communication connector.
The EGPS unit is the GPS trainer designed by EDIBON to study the basic concepts about global positioning.
This unit allows to acquire solid formation about the operation mode of a GPS receiver without any previous knowledge.
The EGPS unit allows the student to learn, in a simple and practical way, the basic terms and concepts used in global positioning systems such as trilateration, GPS starting modes, geographic Azimuth, etc.

The EGPS has a set of LEDs to indicate the unit status:
- Switch and indicator of the unit status.
- Tracking and positioning status indicators.

Active antenna with amplifier incorporated and magnetic base to be fixed to metallic elements.
