by asdqms on September 3, 2009

A lot has happened over the past year at ASDQMS and we wanted to make sure you’re up to date.

 GageMux USB 4 & 8 Port Gage Interfaces are available

On July 1, 2009 the GageMux USB with RS232, USB and Keyboard Outputs was released for immediate delivery. The GageMux four-port and eight-port designs make connecting multiple gages <!–[endif]–>to a single computer port fast and simple. Now you can support your old PC’s with RS232 ports and No USB ports, and the new computers that are only available with USB ports. We have included in each interface the option for RS232, USB and USB Keyboard outputs. You choose the best option for your data collection station.

The NO Software Wedge Logo is Here!

In the next week look for our new “NO Software Wedge” logo popping up everywhere. This campaign is an effort to educate customers how to enter data into any windows application (MS Excel, Word, Internet Explorer or any web application) without any complicated software packages. Our new GageMux and SmartCable USB Keyboard interfaces make your gage data look like it was entered using a keyboard (we engineered the interfaces to look like a Dell keyboard).

ASDQMS goes GREEN

All the ASDQMS products are designed to be economical and environmentally friendly (GREEN Based). The New GageMux and SmartCable USB models include power saving modes as well as designs using GREEN manufacturing processes and components. We’re trying to do our part in saving this planet for our children!

Wireless Mitutoyo-UWAVE SmartCable Adapters

Most customers are asking us for inexpensive wireless gage interfaces. You can’t blame them, who wouldn’t want to stop replacing gage cables forever (so long as the wireless transmitters don’t disappear from the plant). We have researched the technology and have come to the exhaustive conclusion that Mitutoyo’s NEW UWAVE wireless system has all the others beat. So we decided to work with Mitutoyo’s solution by providing SmartCable UWAVE interfaces for the NON-Mitutoyo gages: RS232, Ono-Sokki, Chicago Dial Indicator, Mahr Federal, Fowler OPTO gages, weigh scales and more… Our nifty SmartCable UWAVE interfaces works on its own NiCad battery for years.

Genesis Data Collectors gets new Ethernet Options

Allot of our customers using the Genesis collectors can attest to their ruggedness and you can’t beat the longevity of these units. We are still manufacturing new units, repairs, eprom updates and we even add a few new gages to the gage interface eprom every month. Give us a call if you have new gages that you need interfaced with the Genesis collectors. In addition, we have released the NEW Gennet Network , for more information go to Genesis Networking

100-40pASD’s GageMux USB has revolutionized the Quality Control field by simplifying and streamlining data collection! Specifically developed to keep on the cutting edge of technology, the new patent pending GageMux USB multiple input gage interface, now has three, user selectable outputs of backward compatibility. They include a RS232, a USB and a Keyboard option.

One interface box does it all! The RS232 output is compatible with older PC systems, while the USB works for newer ones. The keyboard output is ideal for readings in all Windows programs when a software wedge is not practical to use. The ASD GageMux USB is the first gage interface multiplexer on the market to have USB keyboard output, which significantly simplifies data collection into any Windows program or web browser and without the need for a software wedge.

This innovation eliminates compatibility issues; allows for plug and play operation; daisy chain’s 100’s of gages; and greatly accelerates high speed data collection

Available in rotary, toggle and pushbutton models, the GageMux USB provides configure options using rotary switches or commands stored in memory. It has a red LED for each port displaying errors, a RS232 pass thru port and connects 100’s of gages to one RS232, USB serial or USB keyboard port. It outputs high speed data to a PC at an up to 38700 baud rate, allows for user upgradeable firmware, is CE rated and comes in 4 and 8 port models.
