Features Overview
Monochrome and Color models. Two twinax models are available - The LM488C, a Logic Module with keyboard that supports SVGA color monitors; and the model IS-488 with an integrated monochrome display, choose from Amber, Green or Paper White.
Multiple Sessions and fully featured. Decision Data twinax workstations manage up to four terminal sessions and one printer session concurrently. Support for IBM's Shared Addressing allows 28 additional sessions. These workstations are user friendly, using special symbols, including scroll bars, check boxes and push buttons to increase user productivity. Mouse support enables users to point and click when making sessions from pop-up menus, help screens and other display features. The mouse can also be used to perform copy and paste editing functions. A split screen enables independent sizing and scrolling of each window. Color models allow for session-specific customization of foreground, background and text colors for user convenience.
Superior Ergonomic design. Decision Data display units are easy to use, with high quality evident in their physical design, materials, performance and user productivity.
Workstation efficiency gets a serious boost with Decision Data displays. All models have multiple display sessions and one printer session. The units also support splitscreen and the simultaneous display of a reference screen with the active screen. The user can paste data from the active screen to the reference screen, where it can be saved or cleared for future reference, or pasted to other applications.
Monochrome workstations consist of a high-resolution 14" monitor that incorporates a non-glare screen available in green, amber or paper white. The products feature a small footprint, a tilt/swivel stand and support our standard 122-key keyboard, or a slim-profile 102-key keyboard.
The color display logic modules are light and compact, providing a space advantage over traditional terminal logic units. The LM-488C can be easily attached to a standard SVGA monitor that the user provides, or you can chose one of our 14", 15" and 17" SVGA color monitors for a single vendor, single warranty (3 years) point solution for your terminal requirements.
Enhanced Productivity Tools. Execution of routine, repetitive tasks are quicker and easier with the IS-488 & LM-488 twinax workstations. The powerful type-ahead buffer and 4,000 keystroke record/pause/playback functions enable simplified and error-free data input. Productivity tools include full column tabulation, an enhanced online calculator with import/export capabilities, screen cut-and-paste, presentation space, and the ability to mark unprotected fields.
The "Alice" suite. Off-line activities that are part of the Alice productivity suite include; an activity reminder, an alarm clock, a telephone directory, a note pad and a calculator, all easily accessed with the touch of a single "Alice" key.
Versatile printing capabilities. The integrated parallel port enables low -cost PC printers to be attached directly to the IS-488 and LM-488C workstations, for both host initiated print applications and screen printing
You can select one of several predefined printer configurations, including Epson, HP, LaserJet and IBM printers. Or even use the Printer Definition Utility (PDU) to configure a user-defined printer. The PDU also enables the user to change ASCII translation tables and add or delete printer commands.
With the Print Definition Table (PDT) feature, users can attach virtually any ASCII printer directly to the workstation's parallel port. Both host directed printing and local printing are supported without system intervention. Printer emulation is enhanced with the Computer-Orientated Rotation function (COR), allowing print images to be shrunk automatically without changing paper settings.
Simplified Data Collection. Decision Data terminals are available with an optional integrated Keyboard Interface Module (KIM) for either/or bar-code or magnetic-slot reader support. See the separate KIM keyboard datasheet for more details.
Three-Year Advance Exchange Warranty. Decision Data workstations are backed by our comprehensive three-year Advance Exchange (cross-ship) warranty in the United States and Canada. This warranty includes the logic unit, keyboard and monitor for a 3-year factory supported warranty to the original end-user purchaser.
