Introducing the New John Deere StarFire 7000 Receiver

Mar. 10 2022 New Products By Prairie State Tractor

Recently, John Deere introduced the next generation of Precision Ag Technology with their new StarFire™ 7000 Receiver. Here's what you need to know:

Sub-Inch Accuracy with No Added Technology

  • Receiver RTK level accuracy on any StarFire 7000 Receiver with a simple SF-RTK annual license while eliminating the need for additional hardware and activations.
  • SF-RTK uses data from four Global Network Satellite Systems (GNSS) to maintain year-to-year repeatability. This is two systems more than past generation StarFire™ Receivers.

Faster Pull-in-Time and Reduced Signal Loss

  • Less than a 10-minute pull-in-time wait
  • Reduced signal loss when operating near trees or other obstructions. This is due to the StarFire 7000 Receiver pulling in the signals from four satellite constellations.

5-Year Repeatability

  • Five years of year-to-year repeatability at launch with longer repeatability in the future and +/- 1 inch accuracy.
  • 17% greater accuracy to make for highly precise guidance lines and product placements, compared to the SF3 signal that SF-RTK replaces
  • 85% greater repeatability (compared to a StarFire™ 6000 Receiver with SF3) 
  • Provides for the best automation results, especially with AutoTrac™ Turn Automation and AutoPath™

Serviceability

  • Over 20 serviceable parts so you can keep your StarFire 7000 Receiver running should any part need to be serviced.
  • Provides customers with lower cost to replace parts and easy parts replacement

The StarFire 7000 Receiver will be available in two configurations: a factory-integrated model and an interchangeable universal model.
