Mobile data solutions for the fire service and other service sectors
Our mission is to develop a long term partnership with the Emergency Services by providing reliable product and responsive after sales services. This is supported by a dedicated team of qualified technicians together with specialist equipment used within our design and research department. Our solutions provide best value in terms of specification, service levels, past experience with mobile data solutions and price. Product support and service levels are to the highest level as we are both the designer and manufacturer of the product in the UK, thus ensuring we have control over product life and support; you speak directly to the manufacturer and not distribution.
Versatile
Our in-vehicle computer Mobile Data Terminal has been specifically designed for the Fire Service by Tempus and incorporates many unique features for ease of use. Two display options are available; on for the Fire appliance and the other has been ergonomically designed for Officers cars. Both display options are driven by the latest Intel® Centrino™ mobile technology designed specifically for mobile computing with integrated wireless LAN capability and breakthrough mobile performance. Tempus have taken this latest technology to drive the new Tempus VMDS2005
Mobile Chip Set
The combination of the Ultra Low Voltage processor together with our own circuitry for display backlight shut-down, provide an overall system which can supply high performance when required, but yet consumes minimum power when not in use.
Display
12.1 or 6.5 inch touch TFT display (responsive to hand or gloved hand) that can be mounted up to 5 metres from the PC remote unit. The display used is readable in a wide range of ambient light levels.

Printing on the Move
The Tempus In-vehicle Thermal Printer is designed to withstand harsh and extreme environments and provide protection against vibration. A robust steel enclosure incorporating a roll-feed paper system, houses the high-resolution print engine. The printer is a Windows based raster line printer, and therefore has no memory limitations. Unlike a standard printer, which requires your computer to transfer an entire page of data into the printers’ memory buffer before printing begins, the print process begins almost instantaneously.
