Features Common to
all Versions of WinWedge
Supports
all COM ports 1-9. Install on up to nine serial ports on a PC for data
collection from many devices simultaneously.
- Data Transfer as Keystrokes directly into any other application program.
- Data Transfer by DDE to any Windows application. Includes an advanced
set of DDE commands that allow other Windows applications to take complete
control of all Wedge functions, including serial output functions. The
DDE command set allows you to create extremely powerful device control
interfaces from within any other program that supports DDE, e.g. Excel,
Access, etc.
- Basic Data Parsing Capabilities allow you to split incoming data into
fields. Input only data you need and ignore the rest.
- A Powerful Serial Data Analyzer feature allows you to preview serial
data and debug all serial communications problems.
- Data Filtering Capabilities let you selectively filter out non-numeric
characters from any field in your input data or ignore specific fields
altogether. The Pro versions have additional filtering options.
- Pre-Transfer Translation Tables. Translate incoming ASCII characters
to other characters to specific PC keystrokes.
- Keystroke Macro Insertion. Add additional keystrokes or keystroke
macros before, after, or within your serial input data.
- Keystroke macros allow you to control where and how serial data appears
in the target application program in Keystroke Mode.
- Automatic Date and Time Stamping. Place date and time stamps directly
in your serial input data.
- Up To 20 Button Controlled Output Strings. Program buttons to either
send data strings out the serial port or lower the PC's DTR line whenever
the button is clicked. Use the Output Buttons to send prompt strings,
or other control data, to your serial devices.
- Automatic Data Acknowledgment feature sends a string back to the serial
device after each data record has been received.
- Timed Automatic Prompting. Have the Wedge automatically transmit prompt
strings or commands at regular timed intervals.
- Fully Selectable Communications Parameters. 110-19,200 baud; 5,6,7
or 8 data bits; 1 or 2 stop bits; EVEN, ODD, MARK, SPACE or NO parity.
- Hardware and Software Flow Control. Selectable input and output buffer
sizes from 128 bytes to 32K. Support for new high speed 16550 UARTs
and all available IRQs.
