EC520 Controller

General Description

The EC520 Electronic Controller is a rugged platform purpose built for easy integration of machine
control and guidance in the factory or aftermarket. It is compact and simple enough to integrate
entry level machine control and guidance straight out of the factory with the factory display, but
powerful enough to provide a seamless upgrade path to full 3D grade control applications andgraphical displays through factory or aftermarket channels.

Key Features & Benefits• High performance Real-time Linux control platform for Trimble Grade Control Server• Options available for CAN, Ethernet or Wi-Fi display interfaces to match the UI experience withthe desired application level - 1D, 2D or 3D• Integrated Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) body sensor with 6 degrees of freedom• Optional integrated Wi-Fi 802.11b/g/n 2.4 GHz for on machine wireless connectivity to Displays,Laptops, Hot Spots or Mobile devices• Optional 5dbi antenna for 300m (980ft) range connections to Wi-Fi local base or other machines• 3 CAN ports for Machine CAN, HMI devices and grade control sensor connectivity• 2 Ethernet ports for displays and radios• 1 RS232 port for guidance light-bars and 3rd party radios• Grade control subsystem power management• Reliable and rugged for direct chassis mounting
