Start with the news release
Trio adds interface to motion coordinator range from
Trio Motion Technology, which we summarised at the time by saying "Trio Motion Technology has added a Sercos II digital drive interface to its MC464 Motion Coordinator range. ".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release MeasX enhances data acquisition system from
Adept Scientific: "MeasX has released version 11 of its Dasylab data acquisition system laboratory, which is now available from Adept Scientific. ".
In October 2009, we covered the news from Cloudis
- take a look at Cloudis develops XML interface
which says: "Cloudis has developed an XML interface to enable third-party applications to export data to its CMPIC cable management software. ".
Take a look also at the news release from Cognex UK, Checker sensors have 752 x 480 pixel resolution,
as well as SRW01 relay protects networking-communication MCCs from WEG Electric Motors (UK),
and SCS launches sensorless vector frequency inverters from System Control Solutions.
