JAVELIN is a software package that quickly and easily creates applications for portable data terminals. Specifically designed for non-programmers, JAVELIN has the complete functionality to provide input-screen definitions of data tables for collecting, validating, reporting and exporting information into batch or real-time applications.
 

JAVELIN offers features that provide a powerful, versatile and extremely reliable data gathering solution:

  • Explorer styled GUI, which allows ease of use when designing, and maintaining data
    capture applications.
  • Automatic detection of connected portable terminals.
  • Background communications for unattended uploads/downloads to connected portable terminals
  • There is no limit to the number of programs that may be created by the JAVELIN application and stored on the PC resident hard disk.
  • Supports mapping of collected data to other software applications through export
    files and custom validation lookup rules.
  • Supports Microsoft Windows operating systems, including 2003, XP and Vista.
 

Supports Microsoft Access, SQL Server and other open database files, where JAVELIN programs and collected data are stored in a fully accessible Access database maintained by the JAVELIN application. It is not necessary to have the Microsoft Access or Office applications installed to run JAVELIN.

JAVELIN can also deliver real-time or remote communications with either wireless networked (WLAN) or cellular (WAN) to your PC running your JAVELIN programs. Please refer to JAVELIN CM (Communication Manager) links for additional information.

 
JAVELIN PC Applications
From the PC the operator can create unlimited number of Javelin Programs that represent a complete data collection application.

Each application has a configuration where the fields of data are defined. Validation rules are created and the validation data to use is imported. Special fields include: signature capture, digitally captured images, bar-coded labels, and more.

The captured data from the handheld terminals are stored in the database and can be viewed from Javelin and exported to user-defined formatted text files or printed with user-defined reports.

JAVELIN Portable Applications
From the hand held portable the operator can load any active programs from the Javelin PC application. Included is a Mobile Client simulator (shown in the examples) that allows testing and demonstration of all your created programs.

JAVELIN portable application features include large control buttons that allow operators to use their fingers as well as the stylus to navigate.

  • The operator controls the programs that are downloaded into the portable and when captured data is uploaded to the PC.
  • Multiple programs can be loaded and will be listed for the operator to select from.
  • The portable can be connected using Microsoft ActiveSync either by direct serial cable, by a wireless Ethernet network, or any optionally supported methods such as cellular modem.

JAVELIN controls all data collection steps including the length, position, data type, and validation based
on the configuration, requiring no-programming efforts on your part.
  • Program Flow control based upon sequence of prompts and branch rules.
  • Built in data validation based on data type, min and max length, starting characters, and much more.
  • Easy to read screen layouts that show previous prompt and the data entered.
  • Large control buttons to tap as a virtual enter key and previous prompt button to go back to a previous field in the program sequence.
 
JAVELIN CM Solution
JAVELIN CM (Communication Manager) is an optional module that can be used with JAVELIN to deliver real-time or remote communications with multiple wireless networked (WLAN) or cellular (WAN) mobile portables to your PC running your JAVELIN programs.

From the PC the JAVELIN CM Server is used to provide real-time and remote communications to any Javelin programs running and connected on the multiple portable terminals at the same time!

Real-time means not having to download any validation records into the portable for lookups. And validation tables are always up to date, because the data exists only in the database on the PC, not in the portable. This is a great feature for large validation files, since there is no need to be limited by the portables memory or time spent downloading data to the portable.

The Javelin portable client can switch from batch to real-time or part-time modes from the configuration selection, allowing programs loaded to run in the any method. Batch mode requires the connection to a PC to download validation and program information and upload collected data. WLAN or WAN (real-time) mode means reading validation data directly from the Javelin PC database and writing collected data back to the PC.

The jump from JAVELIN to real-time requires only the JAVELIN CM module to be purchased and portable terminals and network PC(s) capable of supporting an 802.11 wireless Ethernet network.
