Fast and Accurate Readings

Using automatic meter reading has two benefits for utility companies; it improves accuracy compared to manual data entry, and increases worker productivity by increasing the speed of reading, allowing workers to do more readings per day. Getac works with our application partners to deliver an automatic meter reading system/AMR capable of revolutionizing the way you serve your customers.

Highly Readable Safety Checklists

To comply with legal standards and ensure occupational safety is high, professionals often need to go through safety checklists and check manuals. Our LumiBond®2.0 technology delivers improved touch control and provides a display that is highly readable in areas with very different luminosity levels, providing optimal access to these critical materials.

One-Handed Operation with Digitizer Pen for Digital Record-Keeping

The best automatic meter reader options are the ones that streamline and simplify data collection and record-keeping. By adopting a digital solution that can send data wirelessly, utilities achieve increased efficiency and faster response times because information is available to management in real-time. Our digitizer pen (optional) and stylus also help replace pen and paper for record-keeping, while the devices’ cameras render many verbal descriptions unnecessary, thus making data easier to capture and transfer.
