MOBILE DATA TERMINAL
The Mobile Data Terminal software connects to the Versaterm message controller over a wide range of available wireless facilities using 'middleware'. Multiple wireless networks can in fact be supported, as well as direct LAN connection which is useful for training environments. Compression and Microsoft encryption is used for all traffic over the wireless network to assure security and reduce wireless traffic load. The MDT component supports four classes of operational service:
-
Dispatch related transactions such as dispatch receipt, status updating, busy updating, on view and traffic stop updating, access to other units status, to other complaints, to location information (hazards/alerts, history, contacts, etc.) and unit history. This includes the optional map display and AVL, if so equipped.
Information checks or requests on names, addresses, vehicles, property, etc. against local RMS and County, State and national data bases. Virtually every part of a report is available to mobiles from the RMS.
Advanced RMS integration for officer schedules, report prefilling, transferring mobile reports to the RMS, getting report approval from field supervisors and access to mug-shots of subjects and images.
Messaging transactions using short conversational messages to dispatchers, other units, supervisors or even key locations in the department (e.g. cell block, front desk, Crime Lab, etc.). Corporate email integration is also offered.
Rooted in traditional MDT functionality, the Versadex MDT provides unparalleled functionality for modern day police officers.
