For ppm10xx zero

Unlimited work – unlimited inclination for inclined measurement.

What was previously impossible for conventional GNSS systems: Raised wall edges, electrical boxes, roof overhangs, tree branches, etc. are no longer obstacles to taking exact measurements in the centimeter range – even overhead.

As of firmware version 3, the 60° restriction on the inclination of the plumb bob when measuring with an inclined plumb bob has been completely removed.

This makes it possible – with sufficient satellite reception and a position accurate to the centimeter (fixed position) – to measure to the centimeter even with a horizontal and even more inclined pole.
This is achieved via the helix antenna of the ppm10xx zero, which receives GNSS signals over a significantly larger aperture angle than conventional GNSS antennas (patch antennas with base plate).

For ppm10xx zero and ppm10xx BT

1. Intelligent memory management – for simple firmware updates.
   The memory management of the ppm10xx has been completely revised. This allows you to easily update the firmware yourself. You can update the new firmware yourself using a small download tool (flasher) for uploading the firmware to the ppm10xx. No service visit to your ppm10xx is required. Loading the new firmware only takes a few minutes. You do not lose any valuable time and benefit immediately from the new functions of your ppm10xx RTK system.
   
   
2. More efficient battery management – for faster charging.
   The software part that controls the charging of the internal battery of the ppm10xx system has been enhanced with many functions. This enables shorter charging times and better transparency of the charge status display of your ppm10xx system during charging
   and during operation. Improved charging control through LED display, approx. 30% faster charging, prevention of deep discharge, improved battery status display.
   
   
3. Availability and loading of the new firmware 3.05 for the ppm10xx zero and ppm10xx BT.
   You can download the firmware to your ppm10xx zero or ppm10xx BT yourself. For this purpose, we provide the firmware exclusively in a package with a loading tool, the “Flasher”.
   And in just a few minutes you can be using your ppm10xx RTK system with the new possibilities.

Teaser:
Our developers have been busy and have added even more new functionality to the firmware. We will only make some of these functions visible with the next versions of the ppm-Commander.

Stay tuned – we are constantly striving to make your measuring device even better and more efficient for you!
