HWg-PDMS: Monitoring software

HWg-PDMSHWg PDMS is a Windows application, primarily designed for IT environments, that logs temperature, energy consumption, or access to monitored rooms. Up to 100 input devices can be connected over a network. The application can display a graphical summary and generate MS Excel reports.


  • Registered version is free of charge for one year
  • Data are collected over a LAN (via http and the device IP address / via an e-mail account)
  • Data collection runs in the background as a Windows service
  • Simple export to MS Excel (runs periodically in the background



Typical HWg-PDMS users
  • IT department: Software for monitoring temperature, power supply, and access to the server room

  • Audit: End user that needs data logging (operations / storage audit)

  • Outsourcing: Record of the quality of the provided services. The generated MS Excel summary can be attached to the invoice as a quality assurance measure.

  • Operations logs: Maintaining a history record that can be manually exported to MS Excel if needed.

I/O Controller: HWg-ER88a

HWg-STEI/O Controller enables monitoring of binary inputs as well as control of outputs and the serial line remotely over TCP/IP and Ethernet. RS-232/485 serial port, 8 inputs and outputs are controlled with a TELNET-like (RFC2217) M2M protocol. The protocol is fully documented. Use the Hercules terminal SW for testing.

  • Redirect ER88a serial port to a virtual serial port (e.g. COM27) on any networked PC. The HW VSP application for Windows is supplied free of charge.
  • Accelerate your deployment with many examples for various programming languages in the HWg SDK (Borland C++ Builder, MS Visual C, VB, Delphi, C#, PHP, JAVA).
  • Box-2-Box mode: Two units can be connected against each other in order to interconnect all their inputs and outputs over the Ethernet, including the serial line.
I/O Controller: HWg-ER88a monitoring of the binary inputs, outputs and serial line
  • Easily connect a barcode reader or a serial printer over an IP network (LAN / WAN).
  • Link up to eight buttons with a SW application.
  • Control a gate, a horn, or an alarm signal using the outputs that can be boosted with external relays.


Accessories:
  • DB9 Prolong cable 2m

  • DB9 LapLink cable 2m

  • I/O Controller 20 pin connector

  • Power adapter

CapTemp

CapTemp - software for collecting data

Software for collecting data and displaying sensor readings (temperature, humidity, etc.).
Outputs graphs, floor plans with values, tables of values, or data exports.

CapTemp is a "SCADA" software for monitoring sensors and inputs. The application is intended for end users, offers a user-friendly interface and easy control.

  • Values can be displayed on a map background or as graphs.
  • Alerts can be redirected to SMS.
  • Data can be stored in the internal database.
  • Enables process control (HVAC, automatic door closing, ...)
CapTemp

Values can be displayed in graphs or shown on a map overlay together with corresponding controls. CapTemp will alert you to critical conditions, send text messages, etc. CapTemp is ideal for operations in need of HACCP, or as an ISO compliance monitoring solution.

Basic features

  • CapTemp services dozens of sensors that measure various quantities (temperature, contacts, humidity, voltage, current, pulses, etc.)
  • Outputs are ready for ISO and HACCP protocols
  • In the GUI, the user can control outputs and, for example, click to open a gate
  • Alerts can be notified by:
  • e-mail, pop-up window, SMS to multiple numbers, sound, alert indicator in a map
  • Supported HWg devices:
  • Poseidon, Damocles, HWg-Tg11, I/O Controller
  • Free 21-day evaluation version


CapTemp application areas:
