Trimble introduces its GFX-750 display system for agriculture applications. The display system comes with the simple-to-install, roof-mounted NAV-900 guidance controller featuring Trimble’s most advanced multi-constellation GNSS receiver. The satellite coverage provides growers with more robust signal availability, which means more active working time—especially in hilly terrain.

The high-resolution 10.1-inch display is an ideal system for a grower with a mixed fleet, and it can work with tractors from most manufacturers. The display is ISOBUS-compatible, a universal communication protocol that Müller-Elektronik, a Trimble company, was a key contributor in developing. ISOBUS allows one display or terminal to control several implements and machines, regardless of manufacturer. It standardizes the control settings, reduces downtime and minimizes installation and interface challenges, simplifying data exchange and machine control.

This high-performance, auto-guidance display system continues Trimble's expansion of Android-based display devices and runs on its high-performance Precision-IQ software. Features include:

  • Flexible connectivity between devices through integrated wireless options including Bluetooth, wi-fi and BroadR-Reach high-speed communications
  • Seamless communication from tractor to farm equipment through Field-IQ Basic or ISOBUS control  
  • Ability to connect to industry-leading signal corrections including CenterPoint RTK, CenterPoint VRS, Trimble RTX technology and SBAS through the NAV-900 controller
  • Compatibility with Trimble Autopilot automated guidance systems for both hydraulic and electric installations
  • Interoperability with Trimble Ag Software to support the farm management needs across the farming ecosystem

“The GFX-750 display system is the perfect solution for a farmer who is ready to get started with precision farming—or who is interested in upgrading to a new system—due to the easy-to-use interface and roof-mounted guidance controller with embedded GNSS receiver,” says Abe Hughes, general manager of Trimble’s agriculture division. “This integrated system—plus the implement control solutions offered by Müller-Elektronik—continues to deliver on our vision to provide a unified platform that seamlessly connects the hardware and software needs of farmers worldwide. This comprehensive display system can enable farmers to more easily adopt precision agriculture solutions across their farm, regardless of vehicle make, model or year.”

The GFX-750 display system comes with a triple-frequency multi-constellation GNSS receiver from Trimble that uses GPS, GLONASS, Galileo and BeiDou satellites together, enabling higher reliability and shorter convergence time. Accessibility and benefits from the full satellite system will vary depending on locally available satellite coverage.
