content: This terminal collected data from the SuperTracker scanner (1993.0228.01) and automatically sent it through the communication radio (1993.0228.05) to the host computer. It also received data from the host computer that it could communicate on a screen to the agent or be used to update the information in the SuperTracker scanner. This is a small variant form of the normal DADS model - the smaller size benefiting agents who move on foot rather than by van in places like New York City. DADS means Digitally Assisted Dispatch Systems.
