Tripmaster Corp offers nationwide wireless communications systems for use with its DT240/GPS onboard computer platform. The firm has selected terrestrial-based wireless carriers that fit Tripmaster's data profile. Both short and long messages generated by the onboard computer and customer application are quickly delivered across the network even through the in-and-out coverage conditions inherent in a wireless network.

The company guarantees that no messages will get lost across the network. Tripmaster's new “store and forward” capability holds onto messages until they have been delivered across the network. If network fading should occur during transmission, Tripmaster will hold onto the messages, and when the network signal becomes available again, the messages will be released to the network.

Users are able to access their messages either through the Tripmaster driver data terminal keyboard for the drivers or its new web-based messaging and AVL system for the office.
