X-ONE PLUS - AVAILABLE CONFIGURATIONS
Dual CPU
The X-ONE PLUS features a dual-processor architecture that separates computing and automotive control tasks for maximum reliability and responsiveness.
Its main CPU — a 1 GHz Freescale ARM Cortex-A8 i.MX53 — includes a hardware graphics accelerator with OpenGL support, delivering fast, smooth performance for navigation and real-time applications.
The secondary Automotive Intensive Task Processor (AITP) manages all critical vehicle operations, such as power management, safe shutdown, and wheel-pulse odometer functions.
It also handles Over-the-Air (OTA) firmware updates and remote diagnostics, ensuring the device stays up to date and fully operational.
This intelligent dual-CPU synergy guarantees high responsiveness, low power consumption, and continuous fleet operation under all conditions.
Fleet Management and Work Distribution
The X-ONE PLUS is a compact, all-in-one platform designed for fleet management and dispatching.
It ensures seamless connectivity between the vehicle and the operations center.
Key functions:
HSUPA modem for fast and stable communication with the control center
U-Blox 6 GPS receiver (50 channels) for accurate, real-time positioning
GALILEO compatibility for enhanced global coverage
Independent GPS and modem control, operating separately from Windows CE for energy efficiency
Hardware MUX port allowing AT commands during active connections — to check signal, diagnostics, and modem statistics
Reliable data flow for dispatching, navigation, and vehicle tracking
- Integration with the Digitax Device Track platform for full fleet supervision
X-ONE PLUS provides fleet operators with accurate location data, continuous connectivity, and real-time monitoring, all in one robust and intelligent device.
Customizable User Interface
The 7-inch 16:9 TFT display (800×480) offers a clear and responsive interface for versatile, user-friendly applications.
The integrated TouchScreen controller and six programmable LED keys enable operators to manage functions quickly and safely — avoiding unnecessary touchscreen wear during frequent or demanding operations.
The ambient light sensor automatically adjusts brightness for perfect visibility in any lighting condition.
A smart power button adds flexibility and control:
short press → boot from the system disk
long press → boot from the microSDHC card
long press (safe mode) → perform a secure system shutdown
It can also be disabled or programmed for “Ghost Mode”, simulating a shutdown while keeping essential background operations active.
Stealth Mode
Stealth Mode is a special operating state where the system remains fully active while the display stays off.
It’s designed for security, monitoring, and energy efficiency, keeping the terminal operational without drawing attention.
Main applications:
Driver monitoring:
The control center can remotely wake up the device — even with the screen off — to check the vehicle’s location, listen to audio, or retrieve diagnostic data.Ghost Mode:
When the power button is pressed, the device can enter Stealth Mode instead of shutting down.
This keeps the system running in the background, reducing power use while maintaining full control.Alarm management:
If the system is off and the alarm button is pressed, the unit can start directly in Stealth Mode, invisibly sending alerts, GPS data, screenshots, or audio to the operations center.
In every configuration, Stealth Mode provides discreet operation, intelligent energy use, and enhanced security control for professional fleets.
Customizable Software
The X-ONE PLUS includes a ready-to-use Software Development Kit (SDK) that simplifies the integration of complex interfaces such as CAN Bus and digital I/O into professional applications.
Developers can easily create, test, and deploy custom software tailored to specific fleet or vehicle needs.
During integration, Digitax provides full technical support, ensuring smooth implementation and long-term system reliability.
Dual Start Function
The Dual Start Function allows you to restore or update the entire system at any time — from user applications to the operating system and CPU firmware.
The terminal can boot from two different microSDHC cards:
one used for data storage (maps, images, logs, or multimedia),
and one dedicated to system initialization or recovery.
This architecture ensures maximum reliability in every condition, simplifying updates, diagnostics, and maintenance directly in the field.
Connectivity
The X-ONE PLUS offers a full range of wired and wireless interfaces for seamless communication with external devices and systems.
It includes two high-speed USB 2.0 hosts, one USB OTG port, and up to six serial connections (RS232 and RS485) to manage multiple peripherals simultaneously.
For video integration, the device provides two video inputs for surveillance cameras and a VGA output for external monitors or displays.
Additionally, programmable digital inputs and outputs allow operators to control connected equipment and read signals from external devices with precision and flexibility.
Reliable and Long-lasting
X-One Plus is an extremely durable and robust product. Designed to be extremely reliable in all professional applications.
Certified for Professional Use
X-One Plus is fully certified R10, R118, R21 OIML and RED Certification as well as the European MID certification for use as a Taximeter and MDT in the same device.
