Axiom External CS2 GOES/Meteosat Transmitter

The Axiom External CS2 GOES/Meteosat Transmitter is the standard GOES Transmitter that is in all new weather stations for the U.S. National Interagency Fire Center (NIFC).

FTS is a worldwide leader in GOES communication. The Axiom External CS2 GOES/Meteosat Transmitter is the standard GOES Transmitter that is in all new weather stations for the U.S. National Interagency Fire Center (NIFC). FTS was the first company to introduce GPS into GOES communication, and the first to offer HDR GOES data. The GOES Transmitter has demonstrated industry-leading reliability with optimal operational characteristics for remote locations. In fact, FTS GOES technology forms the backbone of the National Climate Reference Station System.

  • The Axiom External CS2 GOES/Meteosat Transmitter is certified by NOAA and by EUMETSAT for use on the Meteosat system.
  • Extremely accurate timekeeping reliably transmits hourly data for up to 28 days without a GPS fix.
  • Extremely low power requirements extend operation in situations of low power or interrupted solar panel charging.
  • Automatically calculates GOES Antenna azimuth and inclination, speeding installation and eliminating errors.
  • Supports test transmissions on an alternate test channel with fixed text messages to ensure future data transmission reliability.
  • NESDIS ID testing is performed at the factory before each unit is shipped to further ensure that GOES transmissions will work perfectly.
  • The Axiom External CS2 GOES/Meteosat Transmitter is available as an integrated option in the datalogger, or as a separate unit for use with older FTS dataloggers.

The FTS GOES Transmitter operates on the GOES Satellite network. The GOES Transmitter is extensively field proven and has demonstrated industry-leading reliability with optimal operational characteristics for remote locations.

  • Easy set-up and installation.
  • Automatic reset and start-up (all configuration data stored in non-volatile memory).
  • Provides diagnostic reports on forward and reflected power for on-site troubleshooting.
