Instrumentation to PC connection software updated

Adept Scientific is now supplying WinWedge 32 Standard, the 32 bit version of the Standard WinWedge serial data acquisition and instrument control product from TAL Technologies

Adept Scientific announces the release of WinWedge 32 Standard, the 32 bit version of the Standard WinWedge serial data acquisition and instrument control product from TAL Technologies.

WinWedge is an easy to use data collection program designed for interfacing RS232 devices such as bar code scanners, scales, callipers, micrometers, laboratory instruments and other serial output devices, to any Windows application.

Users can input real-time serial data directly into Excel, Access, LIMS, MMIs, statistical software or any other Windows Software.

WinWedge Standard v3.0 adds new capabilities to previous versions including: * User definable "Hot Keys" - to control many serial I/O functions.

* Support for up to 16 serial ports.

* A Pre-Input Character Translation Table.

* Additional Data Parsing and filtering capabilities.

* Timed Automatic Serial Output Function.

* An expanded set of DDE commands.

The new version of WinWedge is a true 32 bit application program that takes advantage of the new Windows user interface in a number of ways.

The new version fully supports long file names and it also inserts its icon in the Windows system tray instead of the Windows taskbar.

Because it is a true 32 bit Windows program, it is also much faster than previous 16 bit versions of WinWedge when run under 32 bit Windows.

Complete context sensitive help (available by pressing function key F1) has also been added to all windows and dialogue boxes thus making WinWedge easier to set up and use.

A new "Virtual Instrument" mode even allows you to test the functionality of WinWedge without requiring an actual serial instrument to be attached to your PC.

The user's manual has also been re-written to include many new examples for setting up and using WinWedge with different serial devices and other software products (i.e new versions of Excel).

All new features were designed to support a wider range of RS232 instruments and I/O data formats as well as make WinWedge much easier to set up and use.
