The RMT 1502 is a fixed-mount computer with a large, bright display. It measures 14.1 x 11.3 x 2.4 inches and weighs about twelve pounds. It is a sealed system whose exterior housing consists of two solid precision-milled powder-coated aluminum halves with integrated heat sinks. The 1502 comes with a 15.1-inch 1024 x 768 pixel XGA TFT display that provides a wide viewing angle and has a bright, 400-nits backlight. A 750 nits sunlight-viewable version is optionally available. 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 1502 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 1502 can be ordered with a 1.4GHz Intel Pentium M processor or a 1.66GHz Intel Core Duo. Memory and disk conigurations will also depend on the choice of operating system. The 1205-PS 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.
