GPS Trainer Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : SCL-CE-12487
Indian Lab Suppliers supplies this GPS Trainer (Product ID: 12487), part of the Communication Equipment range under Laboratory equipment, a 12-channel GPS receiver trainer that lets students connect to live satellites via a GPS antenna to study GPS fundamentals, receiver design and NMEA data protocols.
Note on naming: our catalog also carries another product with the identical name GPS Trainer (Product ID 12383). Both units share the same core specification — 12-channel, L1 C/A, 25 meters CEP position accuracy, 0.1 m/s velocity accuracy, −175 dBW receiver sensitivity, 4800 baud serial communication, NMEA 0183 V2.2/SiRF binary/RTCM SC-104 V2.0 protocols, and −40°C to 85°C operating range — and appear to be the same underlying GPS Trainer unit listed under two Product IDs. This page's source additionally itemizes a 12-item experiments list, a GPS accessories list (serial cable, mains lead, GPS antenna, software CD), an "Other Apparatus Required" note (PC with Windows XP) and a USB-powered PC connection in addition to the RS232 interface, none of which appear in Product ID 12383's source. Please confirm with our team which Product ID to order under, and whether these are in fact the same SKU, before purchasing.
Quick Answer
GPS navigation is an increasingly common technology, and this GPS Trainer gives students a basic understanding of GPS fundamentals, satellites and GPS receiver design aspects by actually connecting to satellites through a GPS antenna. The manufacturer positions it for B.Tech/B.S. and M.S.-level students at engineering and technical institutes (electronics and communication, telecom), technical training centers in communication organizations, and R&D personnel and practicing engineers in research labs and industry.

Frequently Asked Questions
You have another product listed with this exact same name — is this the same unit?
The core specification matches our other GPS Trainer (Product ID 12383) exactly, and this appears to be the same underlying unit; this page's source additionally itemizes the experiments list, accessories and PC requirement. Please confirm the correct Product ID with our team before ordering.
Does this trainer connect to live GPS satellites?
Yes. Students connect to satellites through a GPS antenna to study GPS fundamentals and receiver design directly, rather than through simulation alone.
What accessories are included?
A serial cable (M/F), mains lead, GPS antenna and software CD; a PC running Windows XP is required separately.
Do you supply this equipment for institutional or export orders outside India?
Yes. Indian Lab Suppliers quotes equipment for institutional and tender buyers across export markets — see the Tenders page for documentation requirements.
