Mobile Resource Management terminals

Advantech has added two new terminals to its Mobile Resource Management product line. They are the VITA350P, which is an ARM/Xscale, Windows CE embedded, mobile data terminal, and the TREK305R, which is a 5.7-inch TFT vehicle-mount display panel. The combination of VITA-350P and TREK-305R provides a fleet management solution with real-time tracking, as well as an efficient dispatch navigation and vehicle data collection system, designed for fleet owners and drivers alike.

The VITA-350P, connected to an OBDII data streamer, can monitor common vehicle performance data, such as vehicle and engine speed, fuel level, brake switch status, and odometer data. It can collect data from longhaul trucks, private delivery fleets, and many other types of over-the-road vehicles. VITA-350P is equipped with Advantech's MRM utility, an easy-to-use, flexible human-machine interface that provides functions to customize fleet management applications in a Windows XP environment and saves GPS data log files to the onboard flash.

The TREK-305R is equipped with a TFT display panel with a resistive touch-screen, and a VESA-compliant mounting kit for easy installation. VITA-350P provides GIS (Geographical Information System) information. For fleet owners, the location of all vehicles can be pinpointed on detailed maps at the back-end operation center. For drivers, the system can calculate the shortest route, saving time, fuel, and money, while ensuring they reach the proper destination.
