Send data directly to Excel---No Software Wedge Required
This Advanced Systems & Designs SmartCable™ USB Keyboard single gage interface connects the Edmunds Gages Trend-Setter II Column Amplifier to a computer. Connects the Edmunds Trend-Setter II Column Amplifier to the SmartCable™ Keyboard using a 9-pin male cable connector---no additional cables required. The output of the SmartCable™ Keyboard gage interface 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 SmartCable™ gage interface to be identified as a keyboard device that can send data to any Microsoft Windows application - no software wedge required. The SmartCable™ Keyboard gage interface will make the Edmunds Trend-Setter II Column Amplifier readings appear as if they were typed in using a standard keyboard - eliminates data collection errors. If you want to collect data into a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet or Explorer based SPC program, simply select the cell where you want the data to appear.
Readings can be triggered by the following:
-
Pressing a send button on the Edmunds Trend-Setter II Column Amplifier, if it has one
-
Pressing the button on the SmartCable™ Keyboard gage interface
-
Depressing a connected footswitch (not included)
