WDT2000 Ruggedised Mobile Data Terminal

This highly versatile, ruggedised Mobile Data Terminal (MDT) is designed for use in the most demanding of environments at the same time as promising ease of use by a vehicle-based operator.

With powerful on board processing capabilities the WDT2000 may be configured for many different forms of mobile data dispatch and field job management requirements (see WDN).  It is fully programmable and the standard user interface is highly flexible and dynamically configurable and it may be customised for individual applications.

 

The WDT2000 is provided with a highly configurable job management interface which supports job dispatch, job return data, free form text messaging, GPS location acquisition and status reporting. Job formats, status stacks and return data fields may be configured ‘over-the-air’.

Multiple screen layouts, job formats, status stacks and return data formats may be programmed into each unit which are triggered by the type of data despatched from the base. (See operating system description.)

Eight soft menu keys are provided and the menus change with each screen.  Special interfaces can be provided on request such as large text,  different language sets (including graphical character sets),  Taxi meter etc.  The standard unit has 2 serial ports and an internal modem.

The WDT2000 Mobile Data Terminal is capable of being interfaced with a variety of data capable wireless networks including conventional and trunked mobile radio and digital cellular systems such as CDMA and GPRS.

The GPS management capability on-board includes the ability to separately set location acquisition and data transmission criteria by time or distance. It is also has an internal geo-fecing capability.

The WiPath wireless data network (WDN) structure which includes the WDT2000 is designed to minimise the number of transmissions and the amount of data transferred to keep data and wireless network costs to a minimum.

An optional IO Expander, which may be provided integrated with the WDT2000 or in a separate box, provides for connection multiple peripheral devices including GPS receiver,  printer,  barcode reader.  The I/O Expander provides a total of up to 5 serial ports,  1 parallel port and 2 grounded outputs.
