Wireless Applications
Wireless applications in which the Boomer-III OEM Modem may be
used include the following:
Meter Reading
The modem can be used to read billing information from intelligent
electrical meters and basic disc meters. Data is transmitted wirelessly
through a radio network to billing computers.
Point of Sale
The modem can perform handshaking and complete verification of all
data transmitted through the wireless network whilst providing
convenient operator mobility such as open air events or conferences.
Vending Machines
Vending machines can also utilise radio data technology. Many
machines already transmit usage and refill requirements to company
head offices via standard telephone lines. Radio modems allow vending
machines to be placed in areas with poor access to telecommunications
infrastructure, providing a cost-effective alternative to installing new
telephone lines. On refilling, only the required refills will be
despatched to the required sites maximising truck carrying capacity and
consequently efficiency.
Alarm Detection
Conventional telephone wire connections are slow to dial out and can
burn before the emergency call can be placed. Laws in many states and
countries require businesses to have an on-line dial out fire alarm
system. The Boomer-III OEM Modem offers a real solution to this
problem.
Parking, Buses and Ticketing
Ticketing machines are being be converted to cashless operation. The
Boomer-III OEM Modem is the best alternative to facilitate the
introduction of this cashless technology.
