Page 4: Overview
1 Overview 1.1 General WayWORD This manual describes the features and options of the RV-DT-8R Mobile Data Terminal (MDT). It also includes a section describing how the MDT’s features are utilized within Raveon’s RavTrack PC GPS tracking and messaging application. -
Page 5: Wayword Mobile Data Terminal
WayWORD Mobile Data Terminal WayWORD is optimized for GPS tracking and two-way data communications with vehicle operators. With 8 pre-defined status buttons, operators can quickly relay their status to a control center. Users may add custom captions on the label area on the bracket below the status buttons. -

This button is implemented for future use in the event that additional features are added, or existing features changed. Currently, this button does nothing. 3.9 Operator ID WayWORD WayWORD To identify the operator of the or the vehicle it is in, the has a Radio Frequency ID (RFID) tag reader that can read common RFID tags and key FOBs. -
Page 8: Messaging Only Systems Without Gps Tracking
Each Raveon radio has a unique ID in it, so text messages can be sent to specific IDs or to the preset group-ID for multi-cast messaging. The WayWORD and the RavTrack PC application handle all of the technical aspects of text messaging. Text protocol information is included here for users who want to write their own text messaging application. -

Page 10: Parameters
5.1.3 Parameters To send information over the serial communications link to/from the WayWORD, Raveon utilizes the Group Separator character to enable binary data and various parameters to be communicated. Parameters start with the Group Separator (ASCII 29 or Hex 0x1D), followed by one ASCII character designating the parameter type, and then the parameter. -
Page 11: End Of Message
5.1.4 End of Message The <RS> character is interpreted as the end of the message. If a message is coming WayWORD into the MDT, and it pauses for more than 20mS, then the will assume the message has ended. 5.2 Status Button Messaging If using a modem with WMX mode enabled, WMX will use a control byte (0x44) to transmit status to the radio. -
Page 12: Inputs And Outputs
6 Inputs and Outputs 6.1 DC Power The MDT operates off a 10-28V DC input. A 3-pin DC input connector must be connected to DC power for the MDT to operate. Figure 1 - Front view of the connector on the MDT. 6.2 Pin Out Function Wire Color... -
Page 13: Digital Inputs And Outputs
6.3 Digital Inputs and Outputs A 12-Pin Harwin M80-5101242 Datamate connector is located on the top to connect various I/O options to the WayWORD. The mate to the connector is a Harwin J-Tek fema DIL cable connector part number M80- 4601242. -
Page 14: Connector Wiring
For those interested in how the I/O connector is wired inside the to the microcontroller of the WayWORD, below is a schematic diagram of the connections. 6.5 RS232 Serial Interface An RS232 serial port on the MDT connects to a radio modem. Typically, that radio WayWORD modem will communicate with a base station. -
Page 15: Command Mode
WayWORD on this pin. 6.6 Command Mode The WayWord may be put into a “Command Mode”, by entering a sequence of three plus characters (+++). To keep the WayWord from unintentionally entering the Command Mode because of the +++ pattern occurring in a stream of data entering the modem, there must be a pause in the data stream before the +++ as well as a pause after the +++ is sent. -
