PLANO, Texas--Oct. 4, 2004--Terion, the leading provider of trailer fleet management systems with over 82,000 devices installed, today announced the launch of FleetView 3R -- its trailer management system specifically designed for refrigerated trailers. FleetView 3R combines the latest digital wireless and GPS technologies with Terion's robust web-based application designed specifically for operation on a refrigerated trailer.

The Smarter Refrigerated Trailer Management Solution

-- FleetView 3R has been developed to perform in the harshest environments, exceeding the stringent SAE-J1455 and NEMA 4 independent standards.

-- FleetView 3R installs inside the refrigerated cabinet in most cases, allowing installation when the trailer is loaded.

-- The system supports full over-the-air system upgrades and enhancements, eliminating the time and expense of taking trailers off the road and manually updating the unit.

-- FleetView 3R utilizes the CDMA digital wireless network, intelligently switching from 1XRTT, SMS and circuit switched digital service with AMPS cellular capability. The result is the most powerful ubiquitous digital network capable of economically and efficiently delivering significant amounts of data.

"FleetView 3R was developed with significant input from our current and prospective customers to ensure that it delivers the return on investment and security benefits mandated by refrigerated carriers," said Ken Cranston, President and CEO of Terion. "We're excited about the initial level of interest we're receiving for this solution."
