Opengrade

Can someone please explain the difference between opengrade,opengrade x,opengrade 3D

Opengrade was created by brian himself, and runs over usb only. OpenGradeX is the most advanced, and developed by @BlackAce. It runs over udp/wifi. Both are only 2d, only show height and length. So they are suitable for digging a ditch, where you’re digging a single line, not a plane like a field.

OpenGrade3D is developed by @Pat, and is 3 dimensional. So it will work for full field leveling. I believe that some GIS software is required for designing the intended field grades.

Searching “OpenGrade” on here shows lots of info.

Well, if I were you, I’d pursue OGX.

OGX or Opengrade would work nicely for this.

With Opengrade you must plug the GPS receiver through USB and machine control though a second USB if used.

I’m less familiar with OGX but I know it works over Wi-Fi. Probably a nicer setup on the long term but more work to assemble.

OG is a fast setup, especially if you already have an F9P in standard format.
