Ziath has launched a new version of its DP5 Network application, enabling tube barcode readers and scanners to be remote-controlled from a smart phone or tablet via a Wi-Fi connection.
Powered by the latest software tools, the app enables users to decode barcoded tube racks quickly and accurately. In combination with a new user interface optimised for mobile devices, DP5 Mobile allows a tube scanner to be operated anywhere on the LAN from a tablet or smart phone, even when visiting compound stores or freezers.
Files can be downloaded, opened, and shared by email or application, whilst a new scan result page brings together everything on one screen. Special functionality for mobile devices includes larger scan images, image zooming, selected tube highlighting, and the ability to see the auto exported results plus scan time questions and answers.
DP5 Mobile is fast and secure, allowing users to export tube positions and barcodes in a range of formats including JSON, XLS, CSV, Text, PDF, PNG and Python. The data can then be forwarded to a colleague or desktop PC.
While any camera-based reader or scanner can be upgraded to run DP5 Standard software, only Ziath DataPaq Express and DataPaq Mirage 2D-barcode rack readers can be currently supplied with LAN adaptors and RJ45 connectors to run the new DP5 Mobile software.
