Collect for Windows allows you to collect data from virtually any RS-232 instrument, and put that directly into programs such as Excel, Lotus 1-2-3, Quattro Pro and many more. Multiple applications may be open and receiving data simultaneously from different instruments. As data is received in your application, calculations can be performed instantly and the results displayed. Collect for Windows can be combined with other Windows programs to provide real-time charting and plotting capabilities. It will also collect data simultaneously from COM ports 1 to 4 available on standard PCs.
Collect for Windows is designed for users who simply want to turn on their computer and begin collecting data, and is ideal in laboratory and production environments where easy to use intuitive systems are required. Instrument data is captured, modified for your application and then sent to the keyboard buffer without affecting normal keyboard operation. Your foreground program accepts data as if it were manually entered from the keyboard. Other destinations for data include Collect for Window╒s integrated QUICKSHEET spreadsheet, user specified disk files and the computer's monitor.
Collect uses a very simple technique for parsing or selecting only the required information from instrument data and ignoring the rest. Complex multi-component strings generated by your instrument are easily processed by Collect. User prompts can be incorporated into your application. Information such as operator name, product description, time, date and batch number can be added to your data. As new data is received from the instrument, the cursor can be automatically located anywhere in your application program. Collect for Windows keystroke macros can activate menus and run macros in your foreground program.
