Salt Lake City, UT (PRWEB) July 31, 2007

QSI Corporation’s rugged mobile data terminal (MDT), the VTERM-G55, is now integrated with Pi Star’s PiMobileCADS and PiMobileRAMP product lines, which are used to service the para-transit and home health care industry. The VTERM-G55 in-vehicle terminal allows Pi Star to schedule client pick ups; monitor vehicle mileage, transit times, location and speed; and send and receive messages to and from the driver. Pi Star is able to communicate with the VTERM-G55 in-vehicle terminal via an external GPRS and CDMA modem.

The VTERM-G55 mobile data terminal used by Pi Star uses a graphic display and a keypad to interface with the user. The terminal can be equipped with two EIA-232, -422 or -485 serial ports and/or an Ethernet 10Base-T interface. The VTERM-G55 has a 320×240 pixel, color LCD display measuring 96 mm (3.8″) diagonal. (optional grayscale display available) and is viewable in most lighting conditions. Other features include 24-key or 40-key membrane / steel snap dome keypad with LEDs; 2 Mbytes flash / 16 Mbytes SDRAM; programmable speaker and real-time clock. The VTERM-G55 in-vehicle terminal is ruggedized to withstand the shock, vibration, temperature and humidity environmental extremes common in many vehicle-related applications today.

“QSI’s VTERM-G55 is very rugged and resists the day-to-day use in this demanding environment. Drivers can even spill soda or coffee on terminals, then clean them up and they still work just fine,” says Mr. Tracy Glende, President of Pi Star. “We especially like that the VTERM-G55 is very easy to program, simple to use, and integrates easily with a variety of wireless communication devices.”

The VTERM-G55 mobile data terminal uses an object-based graphic terminal programming language called Qlarity® (pronounced Clarity). Designing a simple control panel interface or a complete stand-alone application has never been easier. The ability to use pre-defined objects, edit existing objects or author your own objects provides flexibility to the novice and expert alike. Qlarity Foundry®, a PC-based design tool, provides a Windows® environment for screen creation, application simulation, debugging and downloading to the VTERM-G55.

“We are delighted that Pi Star has chosen to use our VTERM-G55 terminal as an integral part of their PiMobileCADS and PiMobileRAMP products. Their success with this terminal once again proves that QSI provides world-class mobile data terminals that are rugged, powerful, economical and highly configurable to a wide range of users,” says Tyler Phillips, Vehicle Products Manager at QSI Corporation. “We look forward to helping Pi Star to continue to grow their business.”

Washington, D.C. (PRWEB) January 5, 2009

The people at Scootaround want to make sure that all attendees who need a wheelchair or mobility scooter can rent one when attending Barack Obama’s upcoming Presidential Inauguration. With mainstream new sources estimating well over 1,000,000 attendees, Scootaround is mobilizing additional resources and equipment for its East Coast scooter fleets.

“We support large events across the nation each month, many with attendances of more than 100,000 people. However the D.C Inauguration will be an event that requires an enhanced level of advance logistical planning.” said Kerry Renaud, President of Scootaround Inc. “As North America’s only national provider of mobility rental equipment, people are looking to us for support. Our goal is to provide for the need of each and every attendee that requires mobility assistance to the best of our abilities for this very special event.”

Russ Holt, President of DisabilityGuide.org, D.C.’s key source for online disability information, says that Scootaround has been a strong supporter of the disabled community for over a decade. “I appreciate the work that Scootaround is doing locally and echo the appeal for visitors to plan ahead for their mobility requirements.” Holt was speaking of Scootaround’s ongoing effort to encourage D.C. visitors to book their rental equipment in advance through their website (www.scootaround.com) or through their 7-day toll-free hotline (1-888-441-7575).

Scootaround recently created the nation’s largest fleet of traveling mobility scooters and wheelchairs by having the Mobility Rental Service group join the Scootaround network. Speaking on the recent company merger, Kerry Renaud said “Our partnership has provided us with more resources in terms of staff expertise and additional mobility equipment. As Inauguration week draws closer, Scootaround is prepared to mobilize equipment for the event as required.”
