BVM Mobile, part of the BVM Group, has developed the VRS-100, a low power 1U 19-inch rack mounted server/workstation platform, designed primarily for use in emergency services’ vehicles as a mobile control room server or as a platform for a mobile first-responder incident centre. Other potential uses include commercial vehicle control, monitoring and entertainment centres, in mapping, utility vehicles and other applications where a rugged and reliable mobile computing capability is required for communications, data management, command and control and similar activities. The vehicle-optimised 250W PSU operates from 9-30VDC. The VRS-100 draws less than 1.5mA on standby, allowing it to be continuously powered-on. Controlled by the ignition switch or a main system switch the PSU provides intelligent shutdown, crank protection and battery deep discharge prevention, protecting the system from transients and voltage brownouts and the battery from premature damage.
