The Eurotech DuraNAV™ is a low power embedded PXA255
processor based standard system platform designed for demanding
cost sensitive real time vehicle tracking and telematics
applications. It combines a powerful ultra low power CPU with
advanced in-vehicle peripheral and wireless connectivity. Several
standard systems configurations are available with different
wireless/interface options.
Applications can run on Embedded WINCE 5.0 or Linux 2.6 kernel
operating systems. A covering Board Support Package (BSP) is
available to speed up application development. Mass storage
is avilable inside the DuraNAV for the OS, application program
as well as data storage. ready utility programs are available to
interrogate and interface to the Eurotech PCN-1001 passenger
counter through a RS-485 serial port.
The DuraNAV combines 12-channel GPS satellite positioning
with wireless cellular communication over GSM/GPRS as well as
Wi-Fi (802.11) and data transfer using a 10/100Mbit Ethernet
interface. Local I/O expansion or connection to the vehicle
bus is possible using the integrated CAN-bus interface.
Available interfaces are tailored to meet the most common
requirements encountered in AVL, telematics and fleet management
systems.These include 12/24V signal level optoisolated digital I/0;
4 in each direction, Oedometer input for distance measurement,
Audio I/O and USB 1.1 port for general device connectivity.
User or driver identification is possible using a 1-wire
EEPROM based solution.
The DuraNAV meets the requirements of the EN50155 standard;
with extended operating temperature range (-25°C/+70°C) as
well as resistance to humidity as well as shocks and vibrations
commonly encountered in vehicle installations.
To improve the mechanical durability locking circular
watertight connectors are used. The WLAN, GPS and GPRS antennas
use locking R-SMA connector to increase reliability. Circular
locking connectrs are used for signal and power I/O. On the
back side is a service panel that covers connectors such as
the SIM-card slot, USB 1.1 and a reset connector. Access
to these connections can performed without removing the system
from its installation and connections.
