The main unit houses the GPS receiver, RF transceiver, processor, interface logic and additional
sensors. The housing is made of aluminum with plastic end-bezels. All connectors are on the
backside of the unit.

QN555.
All units, with the exception of the QN555, are enclosed in a black anodized aluminum casing in

The QC230 and QC235 models represent the basic line of SAFEmine CAS units. The QC230 is
meant to be installed with an external display while the QC235 unit offers a built-in display but can
also be upgraded with an external display. Installation of these units can be realized with a minimal
amount of effort.
