Yes it will be available.

The mojoRTK can operate in two modes on a Deere tractor:

1) GNSS Positioning receiver for GS1/2 - In this mode the mojoRTK simply provides a position to the Deere CANbus and the operator uses the Autotrac functions (parallel, curves, pivots etc included) available on the GS1/2 screen as usual. The mojoRTK console is not used to set waypoints or to control, the GS1/2 screen is used. The mojoRTK is a "passive" component used to simply provide a terrain compensated position on the CAnbus for use by the Deere systems. Essentially, it is a Starfire replacement for those who want to keep their GS2 screen, but want a different positioning system that goes beyond what is offered by Deere.

2) Parallel Auto-steer mode - By itself, the mojoRTK console is a simple parallel auto-steer system. In this case we plug it into the Deere CANbus again, but now the mojoRTK does the positioning AND the navigation inputs such as waypoints. This is only available on the newer 30 series tractors, and some 20 series with a modern CANbus.

The Rinex screen is intended to be used in situation 2 above where the grower does not have a GS1 or GS2, and wants to extend the functionality of the mojoRTK to do curves, pivots, autospray etc, on a big screen.

Hope this helps.
