Spider-III CX-530/535




Description

Spider-III GSM/GPRS/GPS is perfectly suited for various tasks in mobile applications as telematics or remote maintenance even in rough industrial environments. The device is based on a fully equipped Linux system, fully supported by Axotec Technologies. Thus it's possible to realize demanding applications with amazingly low development efforts. The MMC/SD card interface supports additional to the onboard memory, exchangable non-volatile memory even for large data amounts. A wireless internet connection is realized by the integrated GSM/GPRS module. Quad band technology ensures worldwide operation in all networks. The integrated, highend GPS receiver, based on the SiRFstarIII chipset, ensures the precise positioning. Features like 20 parallel satelite channels and extreme high signal sensitivity make a high precision positioning accessment even under difficult conditions possible. Free available standard serial interfaces can be used for the flexible attaching of board computers, readers or other similar devices. The widely spread CAN- and Tachograph interfaces of modern vehicles are also integrated. Phone calls can be done comfortably via the integrated connection for a speakerphone on Spider-III. Status signals are processed by means of the digital inputs. Relais, actuators, signaler etc. can be driven directly by the digital outputs.

Short summary
