Jeppesen Introduces IR-310 GPS

'Jepps' Adds Unit to Its GPS Business

Jeppesen has tested and selected a new GPS receiver and added it to the more than 70 GPS units that currently work with its moving map navigational software applications, such as FliteMap and JeppView FliteDeck.

The high performance receiver, based on SiRF Star II architecture, tracks up to 12 satellites at a time, re-acquiring satellite signals in fewer than 100 milliseconds and updating position once per second. Its compact size makes it optimal for use in applications such as aviation, marine and ground-based vehicle navigation, plus mapping and surveying. Through differential capability and the use of real-time RTCM corrections, the unit offers positional accuracy to within one to five meters and is both WAAS and EGNOS capable.

The IR-310 is ideal for airborne use. Its USB connection supplies constant reliable power to the receiver via a PC, tablet PC, or other handheld computing device. The rechargeable battery is automatically recharged during normal operation, maintaining system time and thereby reducing the time required for system startup. Trickle-power allows the unit to operate in sleep mode to maximize battery life. Equipped with USB, RS-232 and TTL communications ports, it is compatible with hardware ranging from tablet PCs to laptops to PDAs and beyond.

"The IR-310 represents a quantum leap forward. Its performance, compact design and ability to acquire position quickly make it far superior to the GPS receivers we previously have carried," says Matt Ruwe, product manger, navigational software.

The IR-310 receiver is available directly from Jeppesen and sells for $249.95.
