Interface technology with system

Interface devices of the product family DC-HI-NET adapt your whole measurement and interface variety to one single interface. Our simple but powerful protocol is supported by all leading software packages for quality assurance and production control on PC´s and workstations. Independent of measurement devices and software suppliers you select your appropriate solution for process control.
DC-HI-NET connects all measurement devices and data sources with interfaces like:
  • RS 232 / 422 and RS 485
  • IEEE Interface
  • Parallel and serial BCD
  • Inductive distance sensors
  • Incremental distance sensors
  • Digital Inputs/Outputs
  • Digitale Ein-/Ausgänge
  • supplier specific interfaces of manual measurement instruments and machines, displays, electrical measurement devices etc.
 DC-HI-NET: Your universal measurement interface
via one single standardized interface to your software for
  • Computer aided quality assurance (CAQ)
  • Process Data Analysis(SPC)
  • Statistics
  • Production Planning and Control (ERP)
  • Machine Data Collection
  • Statistical Process Control (SPC)
on PC´s and Workstations.
DC-HI-NET is an interface device with own "intelligence" which is connected to the computer via the serial interface. With DC-HI-NET you get an interference-proof solution, easy to install and to extend. Further software adaptations and host configurations are not required.

The measurement instruments are connected to the interface device via standard cables, which are typically provided by the measurement equipment manufacturer. You reduce costs and protect yourself against confusions.

Our well documented, easy-to-use driver library (DLL) allows data capture into your Microsoft Windows applications. Event- controlled measurement data capture (with manual or foot switch contacts) and channel arithmetics facilitate multipoint measurement and simple transfer of the results into Microsoft Excel.

The device- independent DC-HI-NET Protocol provides comfortable functions. Simple commands allow you to pre-process the data. This removes processing load from the host system - the real time capabilities improve substantially. Features like the automatic measurement device recognition and free configuration protect you from inconvenient burocratic and configuration tasks.

The DC-HI-NET Operating System carries out the following functions:

  • Measurement device recognition and transmission protocol adaptation
  • Communication with the measurement device and parameter assignment
  • Data format conversion into the unified format
  • Synchronised data capture and transmission
  • Data buffering in the system memory
  • Dynamic data pre-processing like calculation of  maximum, minimum and range values
  • Group operations for multipoint measurement
  • Automatic hardware detection for installed interface modules
  • Self- test and monitoring
