Data and Database Management Software
Software provides supervisory control and DAQ solution.
Press Release Summary:
Designed to complement isoLynx® SLX200 data acquisition hardware system, browser-based ReDAQ(TM) runs as service under Microsoft Windows XP Pro. Program generates data tables and Excel spreadsheets, and includes built-in lossless historian, which runs automatically and continuously captures data at regular intervals. Administrator creates I/O Website using ReDAQ(TM)-Designer, which allows dynamic real-time graphical objects such as pie charts, histograms, and graphs to be generated.
Original Press Release:
Dataforth Introduces ReDAQ(TM) Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition Software
Dataforth Corporation has developed ReDAQ(TM) software to complement the company's isoLynx® SLX200 data acquisition hardware system. Combined with one or more isoLynx® SLX200 systems, ReDAQ(TM) software provides a supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) solution for factory automation, process monitoring and control, and many test and measurement applications.
Establishing a complete SCADA or test system with ReDAQ(TM) is exceptionally simple. The core software runs under Microsoft Windows XP Professional as a service. This ReDAQ(TM) service sets up the central server, which can connect to many isoLynx® SLX200 units via one or more networks. The networks can be RS-485 or dedicated Ethernets, or a combination of the two. Users then access the system via an Intranet or the Internet. No application software is required because the HMI is delivered via Web browsers. Moreover, dynamic real-time graphical displays are generated on the Web pages that were created by the ReDAQ(TM)-Designer.
In all, Dataforth's new ReDAQ(TM) software technology "redefines" data acquisition for years to come!
Being browser-based means that remote control and monitoring are readily achieved. The administrator easily creates an I/O Website using the ReDAQ(TM)-Designer. The ReDAQ(TM)-Designer allows dynamic real-time graphical objects such as pie charts, histograms, graphs, and mimics to be created using a graphical user interface. When viewed in the users' browsers, these graphical displays respond in real-time to external signals. The input data to the graphics comes from the Dataforth SCM5B isolated analog signal conditioning modules that are plugged into the isoLynx® SLX200 units.
A lossless data historian is built into ReDAQ(TM). The historian runs automatically and continuously captures data at regular intervals. This historized data then can be used to generate history tables or graphs.
ReDAQ(TM) also provides for the exchange of current and historical data with other applications via XML. In addition, users can create Excel spreadsheets using current and historical data.
