The PCL-50 and PCL-1200
are the PC-compatible members of the Transtech Systems hand held
family featuring PCMCIA capabilities. They are rugged implementations
of the industry-standard PC, designed to run MS-DOS® and the vast
majority of DOS-based PC applications. Featuring a large-screen
Liquid Crystal Display with standard monochrome CGA text and graphics.
A high-speed serial port allows use of off-the-shelf PC communications
products.
The PCL-50 and
PCL-1200 feature 2MB of system RAM and 384KB bootable System
Flash. Your choice of a RS-232, RS-422, RS-485 or CMOS/TTL serial
interface, with an optional second RS-232 port. The PCL-50
and PCL-1200 offer a PCMCIA Ver.1 PC-Card® slot. The PCL-1200
employs the latest in nickel metal hydride battery technology and
power management techniques for double the charge life of conventional
nickel cadmium cells without "charge memory" problems.
Unlike bulky and awkward
so-called "hand held" PCs, the PC-Lite family is actually
designed for comfortable one-handed use. PC-Lite cases are molded
from General Electric Cycolac® ABS, one of the most durable, chemical-resistant
materials available. Keypad surfaces are securely framed and clamped
into place to ensure excellent splash resistance and prevent curling
or peeling of the keypad overlay. Stock and custom keypad layouts
with 45, 32, 30, 20, and 15 keys are available.
