Product Description
SmartCable Keyboard with Back Type Connector
Send data directly to Excel---No Software Wedge Required
Simplify your data acquisition system. This Advanced Systems & Designs SmartCable USB Keyboard gage interface with Excel output connects a standard Mitutoyo gage (Series 570/543/575/572) to a computer using a back type connector. Connects directly to the gage, no additional cables required using the standard, back-type gage connection. The output of the SmartCable Keyboard single input 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 USB to be identified as a keyboard device that can send data to any Microsoft Windows application - no complicated software wedge required. The SmartCable Keyboard gage interface will make the gage 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, simply select the cell where you want the data to appear.
Readings can be triggered by any of the following:
-
Pressing the push button on the SmartCable Keyboard
-
Depressing a connected footswitch (not included)
-
Pressing the send button on the gage (if it has one)
Simple to use!
This SmartCable Keyboard single input gage interface is easily configured to output data in different modes, such as CR, TAB, up, down, left, right continuous reading, continuous reading with automatic 10, 15, or 30 second delay between readings, and others. The output mode is selected by adjusting the rotary switch on the SmartCable Keyboard. To access the rotary switch, simply remove the top cover by loosening two Phillips screws. A detailed operation manual is included with each SmartCable Keyboard.
