Matrikon OPC Tunneller
01 August, 2011 | Matrikon Asia-Pacific
OPC Tunneller from MatrikonOPC now supports encryption and data compression to provide an easy, reliable and secure way to communicate between networked computers. It does away with the difficulties typically associated with DCOM configuration. Different protocols, security settings or locations are no longer a factor when sharing data between computers. This is achieved by installing OPC Tunneller on the OPC client and OPC server nodes and then telling the Tunneller client where the Tunneller server exists.

Yamatake ATT60 and ATT70 advanced temperature transmitters
29 July, 2011 | AMS Instrumentation & Calibration Pty Ltd
The Yamatake advanced temperature transmitters, models ATT60 and ATT70, are field instruments that convert inputs from thermocouples, mVs and resistance thermo-bulbs into analog (4-20 mA) and digital signals and transmit them to receivers. Various parameters can be remotely set, and self-diagnosis can be performed through the Smart Field Communicator (SFC). They can also execute two-way communications between the SFC, or HART 375 communicator, and, via DE protocol, with the TDCS3000 or 3000X and a database, thus facilitating self-diagnosis, range resetting and automatic zero adjustment. Settings, adjustments and self-diagnosis can be done easily by SFC or HART communicator.
