❚Multi-purpose Programmable I/O’s

Each KGP-2A has sixteen programmable I/O’s for either an analog “input” or output” [available at external connectors ACC2 (DB-9) & ACC-3 (DB-15)]. The inputs are useful for vehicular sensors, switches, contacts, etc. and generate a report to the KGP-2B base unit each time the status changes*. The outputs can be used to trigger external relays and controls*. A KGP-2B base unit can be commanded by a control/base station computer running a KGP-2A/2B AVL dispatcher application to activate/deactivate KGP-2A fleet unit outputs and/or poll current input/output status.

*Requires additional circuitry and added parts; also requires a KGP-2A/B compatible AVL/dispatch software capable of utilizing these I/O’s.

❚Flash Memory

Flash memory permits uploading KGP-2A/2B unit firmware upgrades with a computer.

❚ Control

The KGP-2A/2B air protocol commands permit a KGP-2B base unit to request any KGP-2A fleet unit to send any currently stored data or mobile station settings. AVL mapping / dispatch CAD software developers are provided with these commands and all protocol information to utilize in their products.
