The RMT 1002 is a compact, lightweight fixed-mount computer for use in vehicles or stationary applications. It measures 11.0 x 8.1 x 2.1 inches and weighs less than seven pounds. It is a sealed system whose exterior housing consists of two solid precision-milled powder-coated aluminum halves with integrated heat sinks. The 1002 comes with a 10.4-inch TFT display that provides a wide viewing angle and has a strong 400-nits backlight. The resistive touchscreen allows for simple operation via custom software applications. Manual dimmer control allows 0-100% brightness settings.
Since a fixed-mount computer may be subject to significant vibration, the interior is designed so that all boards are securely mounted with multiple screws, and that thre are no loose parts or wires that might get in contact with anything. Wide-range voltage input (9-36 VDC) allows operation in various types of vehicles.
The RMT 1002 is a very rugged device that's been track vehicle tested. Standard sealing is IP65, with IP67 sealing optionally available. The device can be operated in a very wide temperature range of -4 to 122 degrees Fahrenheit.
Depending on the application, the RMT can be ordered with 1.0 or 1.4GHz Pentium M processors or a 1.66GHz Intel Core Duo. Memory and disk conigurations will also depend on the choice of operating system. The 1002 can run Windows XP, the XP Tablet PC Edition, XP Embedded, Windows Vista, or Linux.
A bank of connectors is mounted along the bottom of the computer: two USB ports, two RS-232C serial connectors, IEEE1394 "Firewire", Ethernet, and two additional DB9 ports for keyboard and multimedia. Optionally available are video-out, a CAN bus jack and two extra serial ports.
Wireless communication can include Bluetooth 2.0 with Enhanced Data Rate as well as WLAN, WiFi, GSM/GPRS/UMTS via the PC Card interface (there are two PC Card Type II connectors).
