The
PCL-25 and PCL-1100 are the PC-compatible member of the Two Technologies' hand held
family featuring PCMCIA capabilities. They are rugged implementations of the authentic 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-25 and PCL-1100 feature 2MB of system RAM and a 384KB System Flash-based bootable Solid State Disk (SSD). Flash on the PCL-25 and PCL-1100 is expandable to 16MB (in 2MB increments). Your choice of a RS-232, RS-422, RS-485 or CMOS/TTL serial interface, with an optional second RS-232 port. The PCL-1100 employs the latest in nickel 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.
