Clipboard Replacement:
Manufacturing activities (such as maintenance
and troubleshooting) still depend on manual data collection
involving a 'Clip-board'. The dictionary defines
clipboard as a writing board with a spring clip at the top
for holding papers or a writing pad.
InstantHMI installed on a PDA with barcoding and/or RFID is
easily adapted as a tool for maintenance and troubleshooting
equipment. InstantHMI Clipboard Palette tools make it
easy to create clipboard forms. |

RFID/Barcoding:
Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is one of the auto ID
systems (like bar codes, smart cards, etc.) used to help
machines identify objects. This technology is used in PDA
based InstantHMI for automatic data capture to identify
objects and transfer this information to a PC without data
entry. Such a system naturally increases efficiency and
reduces data entry. Scanned RFID/Barcode may be used to
initiate machine test sequences or inventory control. |

Bluetooth Cable Replacement:
Bluetooth technology (built in many PDAs) provides RF
communications in the 2.45 GHz spectrum (using Frequency Hopping).
Class 1 devices have a range of about 30' feet, while class2
devices have range of 300' feet. InstantHMI technology uses
socket serial Bluetooth adapters to provide Bluetooth capability to
convert serial port on legacy controllers. Such a wireless
link eliminates the need for a serial cable link to the
controller. |

Ruggedness/Intrinsic Safety:
PDAs
provide low cost, portable and mobile platforms for
InstantHMI runtime. Companies such as Symbol, Intermec
Technologies and TDS provide PDAs that trade off some
compactness for ruggedness while incorporating additional
functionality such as barcode scanning. For application
requiring ruggedness we provide InstantHMI bundled with TDS
Recon rugged PDAs. InstantHMI solution bundle with
Ecom Instrument can meet your intrinsic safety requirements. |
