SmartCable Keyboard for A&D EK EW EJ Series Compact Balance
Send data directly to Excel---No Software Wedge Required
This Advanced Systems & Designs - ASDQMS SmartCable USB Keyboard single gage interface connects the A&D EK, EW or EJ Series Compact Balance to a computer. Connects the A & D Balance to the SmartCable Keyboard gage interface using a 9-pin female cable connector---no additional cables required. The A & D EK, EW or EJ Series Balance must have the optional EJ-03 RS-232 serial interface installed. The output of the SmartCable Keyboard is a standard USB 2.0 keyboard signal.
Connecting the SmartCable Keyboard gage interface with its built-in keyboard wedge to a computer will allow the A & D Compact Balance to be identified as a keyboard device that can send data to any Microsoft Windows application (like Excel) or Internet Explorer based SPC program - no messy software wedge required.
This SmartCable Keyboard gage interface will make the A & D Compact Balance readings appear as if they were typed in using a standard keyboard. Eliminate data collection errors! If you want to collect SPC data into a Microsoft Excel or other spreadsheet applications, simply select the cell where you want the data to appear.
Readings can be triggered by the following:
-
Pressing the PRINT key on the A&D Compact Balance
-
Pressing the button on the SmartCable Keyboard gage interface

Depressing a connected footswitch (not included)
