New mobile data terminal launched - see it at Supply Chain 2020!


Advantech will be showcasing its new dedicated industrial in-vehicle box computer at the Supply Chain 2020 exhibition in Melbourne next week.
 
The TREK-550, placed in transport trucks, buses, vehicle fleets and taxis, can be connected to a variety of monitoring systems: onboard diagnostics (OBD-II), a car-area network (CAN) and tyre pressure monitoring systems (TPMS), to name a few.
 
Built-in wireless communications (WWAN, WLAN, Bluetooth) allow TREK-550 to send data back to a central site, as well as to receive over-the-air (AOTA) updates and communicate with central dispatch.
 
The TREK-550 is ISO7637/SAE J1455 Class A/ SAE J1113 certified and is able to operate in extreme temperatures and transient power conditions, and it can endure shocks and vibrations. The dual audio and video outputs allow independent displays such as the TREK-303 to be attached, providing in-cab or passenger display applications.
 
GPS systems often fail in dense urban centres, tunnels, or mountainous regions where line-of-sight to satellites is compromised. Vehicle fleets can’t afford these types of interruptions. The TREK-550 overcomes these inherent limitations to satellite technology in two ways: assisted GPS (AGPS), where positioning data is sent to the unit using GPRS communications from an AGPS server, and dead reckoning, where the vehicle continues to update is position based on velocity and gyroscopic calculations. So the TREK-550 is able to report its position to driver and/or dispatch regardless of terrain or driving conditions.
 
The TREK-550 has two video-in ports to support a rear-view monitor. It is important for truck drivers to see behind the truck when they are backing up, or on the sides as they turn the vehicle. Reducing blind spots with video monitoring systems increases safety and reduces liability to the vehicle fleet company.
 
SupplyChain 2020 will take place from 20-21 July at Melbourne Park Function Centre. The exhibition has more than 35 exhibitors and is free to attend. For details please register at www.supplychain2020.com.au.
