Replicating physical GPS data to multiple virtual COM ports to increase operational efficiency.
BECAUSE YOU NEED TO ENSURE YOUR INDUSTRY-SPECIFIC APPLICATIONS RUN SEAMLESSLY
VGPS (Virtual Global Positioning System) or Virtual-GPS is an innovative solution that replicates the GPS data to multiple virtual COM ports, allowing the functionality of different software applications running simultaneously on a Getac device. Seamlessly integrated VGPS extends the compatibility of legacy applications.
One GPS, Multiple Applications
VGPS splits one GPS COM port into multiple for a maximum of 5 software applications at the same time.
Extend the Capability of Legacy Applications
Transition legacy software to new Getac hardware, such as AVL, CAD, or GIS which require COM port interface.
Seamless Integration
Fully integrated with all Getac devices equipped with GPS. Automatically detect the Baud Rate and COM port settings during the installation.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Getac’s VGPS (Virtual Global Positioning System) can take the GPS data from the physical GPS module and replicate it to multiple COM ports. In addition, VGPS also provides Windows location GPS data and DTR/RTS signals for extensive legacy application support.
VGPS for Public Safety
Virtual-GPS enables first responders to access multiple GPS applications simultaneously, on a single device. This instantly puts crucial information and intelligence at their fingertips, reducing the cognitive burden on them and promoting effective decision making in high pressure environments.
