SETUP GUIDE

Which setup fits my farm?

Three ways to put Cloudbase Cellular RTK to work. All three can provide sub-inch RTK on the receiver you already own.

There are a lot of ways to make CloudBase fit your operation — including splitting a base with local farmers. One base covers a 30-mile radius, so it doesn't have to be one farm's purchase: five farms going in together pay $2,000 each — about the price of a modem — and every machine inside that circle runs sub-inch RTK off a network you own together. Call or text 765-490-1824 and we can help.

One base station. Your whole operation.

A single CloudBase base station serves a 30-mile radius — here, eight CloudBase modems working the same coverage circle, all holding RTK fix from one station.

CloudBase Farmer FAQ

Will CloudBase work with my receiver?

Yes — CloudBase modems work on all GPS receiver brands: John Deere StarFire™, Trimble, Ag Leader, Case IH, Topcon and more. If your receiver accepts industry-standard RTCM3 corrections, it works.

How much does a data plan cost?

CloudBase uses very little data — most farmers add it to their existing carrier plan as a low-cost connected device. Contact us and we'll help you pick the right plan for your area.

How do I install it on my receiver?

The modem bolts on next to your receiver and connects with the included harness. Most installs take under an hour, and we walk you through it after purchase.

Is the modem weather-proof?

Yes — the CloudBase modem is built in an IP68-rated weather-proof enclosure, designed to live on the machine year-round.

Will my lines and boundaries match my previous RTK source?

Switching correction sources can shift your AB lines and boundaries slightly. We'll walk you through shifting your lines after install so you're back on your existing passes.

What's included with the base station?

The base station, antenna, and everything needed to broadcast corrections from a central spot on your farm. You supply power, a cellular data plan, and a CloudBase modem on each machine.
