The TIME series devices are based on Intel XScale processors and come with up to 500 MB of internal non-volatile storage, II says. The devices provide PCMCIA and CompactFlash slots for additional system expansion.

The units are water- and dust-resistant, allowing for installation in both office and manufacturing environments, according to the company. They are packaged in rugged NEMA 12 enclosures, sealed to IP54 requirements, and are offered with a range of autoID interfaces such as visible red, infrared, and magnetic stripe slot readers, RFID proximity readers, laser scanners, and biometric fingerprint readers. A DC power connector is provided for use by external autoID devices such as biometric fingerprint readers and 2D laser scanners.

The user interface consists of a 2-row by 40-column supertwist backlit LCD screen, along with a choice of QWERTY or sealed elastomeric keypads. A PS/2 connector allows enables the use of external keyboards and "wedge" readers. Communication ports include 10/100 Ethernet and three serial ports. An 802.11 WiFi card can be installed in either the PCMCIA or CompactFlash slots. Standard networking and utility software includes TCP/IP and SNMP, according to II, and popular terminal emulation interfaces are also available. Optional digital I/O interfaces are available to support eight opto-isolated digital inputs and eight digital outputs.

"Microsoft's embedded Windows CE 4.2 operating system provides a stable and flexible operating system for data collection terminals, programmable automation controllers, and portable enterprise devices," the company said.

The LANpoint TIME terminals are shipping now with single-unit prices starting at $1750, according to the company.
