Fowler, 54-775-020-0, Software Wedge for Windows 32bit
Includes installation/setup programs, direct online help files; CD; manual with software examples
Features
- Software Wedge is designed to input RS232 (serial) data and then transfer that data in real-time directly into any other Windows application. It works by either simulating keystrokes that get fed to the other application or by passing the data using Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE)
- Add complete serial data acquisition (and control) to any Windows application, including Excel, Access, LIMS and MMIs.
- Easily set up in minutes using a simple menu driven configuration program. No special programming is necessary.
- Collect real-time data on any serial port (RS-232, RS-422 or RS-485) - even multiple serial ports simultaneously - directly into any other Windows programs
- Quickly diagnose and correct serial communications problems with powerful, built-in serial data analysis tools.
Software Wedge Pro is designed to work with practically any serial device no matter how complex the serial output or how sophisticated the control required. Software Wedge Pro supports advanced parsing, filtering and formatting of incoming data including text, binary, hex, and ASCII data. It also supports up to 100 serial ports simultaneously. Software Wedge Pro is ideally suited for more complex devices including industrial and laboratory instruments quality and process control devices, PBX systems, PLCs and more.
Expanded DDE support allows other applications to completely control Software Wedge and all serial I/O functions. This allows you to create extremely powerful data acquisition and device control interfaces from within any Windows application that supports DDE (including Excel, Access, MMIs and LIMS).
Software Wedge Pro provides numerous advanced features including TCP/IP support, the ability to apply math expressions on data as it is being received and the ability to log serial data directly to a disk file in addition to sending the data to another application program.
Additional Software Included with Software Wedge Pro In addition to being the most advanced serial data collection tool available, Software Wedge Pro also comes bundled with the following five additional RS232 and TCP/IP communications software products:
TCP-Wedge: Input TCP/IP data directly into any Windows application program. Works just like Software Wedge except that it inputs data from a TCP/IP network port
TCP-Com: RS232 to TCP/IP converter. Transmit and recieve RS232 serial data over any TCP/IP network.
File-Wedge: Feed data from any disk file directly into any Windows application program. Works just Software Wedge except it reads input data from a disk file.
COM-File: A very simple and easy to use serial data logger program.
TCP-File: A very simple and easy to use TCP/IP data logger program.
