Zenitel develops automatic vehicle location over Tetra

Oslo, Norway

Zenitel has, at the request of the public security forces in the Netherlands, developed a black box in combination with the Universal Gateway Software. The solution enables the user of an existing VDO Dayton installation, to receive a destination over Tetra from the control room.

After acknowledgement of the driver or his assistant, the VDO Dayton starts navigating to the designated spot. This installation also enables the control room to track the vehicle on a map in the control room.

Technically, this solution works on both packet data as SDS. The solution will also be available without the VDO Dayton and can than be used for tracking and tracing only in combination with a standard serial GPS receiver. The black box also provides 4 input contacts and 4 output contacts and is an extension of the well known I/O expander.

Zenitel expects this product to be sold to several fire brigades in the Netherlands. It is crucial for them to know where to go in times of calamities. Besides that, it will add value to their investment in Tetra technology.
