Interface series that communicates via serial or network connections with the ability to interface digital gauges and serial devices onto local area networks
MicroRidge will introduce at IMTS 2002 the next generation of GageWay interfaces that communicate via serial or network connections, feature extensive user configurability, and support digital gages and RS232 devices.
The new GageWay series include what the company says are the first and only interfaces that feature the ability to interface digital gauges and serial devices onto local area networks.
The GageWay3 interfaces connect two digital/RS232 inputs.
The GageWay4 interfaces connect two RS232 inputs.
A network output option is available on all of these new interfaces.
The following features are found on the new series: more advanced method of mixing digital and RS232 devices on the same interface; connect any serial device without expensive adapter cables; comprehensive Windows-based setup software for the PC that allows extensive GageWay configuration; direct connect network option; data parsing that allows you to format the output in the manner you need for your application. The next interfaces in the new GageWay series will be released in November 2002.
They will feature the ability to connect four digital/RS232 inputs and will also contain the same setup and output features as the GageWay3 and GageWay4 interfaces.
The MicroRidge family of interface solutions will offer the widest variety of cost effective options for connecting digital/RS232 inputs with direct connect network options.
