Performance monitoring app
October 1st 2010 Vitronic is reported to be the first
manufacturer of camera-based parcel
identification technology to offer an
'App' for system operators wishing to
check their hub's performance and
efficiency. Compatible with Apple's
touch-screen iPad, it allows users to
run remote diagnostics immediately
from any location in network range.
System operators need to be aware
of current read rates and other
statistics to optimise facilities for
efficient running, but can lose track of
things when they leave their desks.
Vitronic's new App solves this
problem. A quick glance at the iPad is
enough to check a hub's performance
figures completely wirelessly.
With just a couple of finger swipes,
the user-friendly app can display the
status and read-rate of each parcel
identification unit, plus all current
and archived read results.
Many companies already use webbased
software to monitor automated
sorting systems. Up until now, this
has only been possible at fixed
workstations.Vitronic's iPad App
collects the necessary information
and displays it to the user, wherever in
the hub they may be. More articles from Vitronic UK: |
