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.”

When confronted with a situation that results in decreased mobility a natural reaction is to feel that we have lost our freedom, that we no longer can be self-sufficient and that we would normally dependent on someone else.

This does not have to be the case in fact thanks to mobility products someone whose mobility challenged now has levels of freedom that they’ve never had before. Mobility equipment makes it possible for these individuals to have added freedom. One item that may be necessary in order to provide freedom to somebody mobility challenged is mobility ramps.

There are many different kinds of ramps that are available to individuals that are mobility challenged. All of these ramps are designed for the same general purpose, to provide access in and out of homes and vehicles.

Some ramps are portable while others are stationary. Portable ramps are designed to be transported. This typically occurs due to the fact that the ramp can be folded and taken along. These can be handy when visiting friends and family that may have stairs at the entrance to their homes.

Solid ramps are intended for use on short sets of stairs. Typically stairs make it impossible for someone who is dependent on a power chair or mobility chair to enter a facility.

By placing a solid ramp over the top of the stairs they are no longer an obstacle. These ramps typically come in different lengths and can be used in accordance with the size of the staircase.

Another type of mobility ramp that is popular is the panel ramp. These ramps are semi permanent rams that permit the user to add additional panels making them as wide as desired. The panel ramp also comes in different sizes allowing usage by different sized mobility chairs.

Two other types of portable ramps are single rolling and multi-folding ramps. Single rolling ramps fold in half once which makes them easier to move from one location to another. Some single rolling ramps carrying handles provide an easier way to maneuver in ramps. Single folding rams may also be referred to as suitcase ramps.

Multi-folding ramps as the name implies fold in half two times. This allows longer ramps to be transported. Multi folding ramps typically come as long as 10 feet long. Some manufacturer’s multi-folding ramps separate for easier transport.

Another common use of mobility ramps is side loading van ramps. These rams installed properly and to the side door opening of a van. Their designs can be lowered to the ground.

When you desire to move the mobility chair in and out of the van these ramps are set up in such a way that provides access into the van by individuals that do not have mobility limitations.
