New Labtronics’ Collect Licensing and Pricing Delivers Maximum Value

Labtronics is pleased to announce the re-introduction of our ‘per installation’ license for Collect – the leading software solution for RS232 instrument data collection. Under the new licensing plan a single copy of Collect licensed for installation on a single PC, can concurrently collect data from multiple RS232 instruments (maximum 99), for only $495.

“Collect has always provided an extremely fast return on investment by eliminating manual data entry and transcription errors, says Mike DeWitte, Vice President of Labtronics’ Device Integration Group. The ‘per installation’ license structure delivers maximum value to Collect users by allowing them to connect multiple instruments to a single copy of Collect, on a single PC.”

Along with the revision to the Collect licensing, Labtronics also announces that the U.S. / Canadian list prices for Collect will be harmonized at $495, reflecting the current status of the Canadian dollar.

Collect is the leading solution for serial data collection from RS232 instruments:

**  Connect with any instruments RS232 ports such as balances, scales, pH meters, moisture analyzers, spectrophotometers, force gages, density meters and many more.

**  Report parsed (extracted) results directly to Excel®, Files or any open Window.

     –  Excel and File interfaces operate through a direct interface with their destination, independent of the cursor location allowing users to work in other applications during data collection.

**  Add Time, Date, Counter or any other required metadata to instrument results.

**  Supports Timed Interval Data collection up to 10 data packets per second.

**  Auto-start for Methods and Instrument interfaces.

**  Includes an Instrument Library supporting over 500 instrument interfaces including their command sets.

**  Supports multiple, simultaneous instrument interfaces.

**  Very easy to setup and use – simply launch the interface and the defined destination can automatically open with Collect’s instrument control toolbar added over top.

     – Use standard Excel® Sheet and Cell references to map instrument data and metadata to the workbook.

     – Define any delimiter to place in between instrument data and metadata when sending to a file.

     – Auto-focus to the defined destination window and control cursor movements after each piece of data is transferred when using the ‘Wedge’ interface to send results to the cursor -location.

      – Embedded VBA macro editors – virtually any feature that’s not already included out-of-the-box can be added to the interface.
