EnvisionFX - Advantages?
• Uses CsCAN protocol to transfer files, giving flexibility to support various physical media including Ethernet, serial, wireless, modem and CAN.
• Works with CsCAN pass-through. Connect to a single unit on your CsCAN CAN network and transfer files to any device on the network seamlessly.
EnvisionFX - Advantages?
• In the past data logging was done on the PC. PCs can lockup or crash, communications can be lost and this means valuable data is lost.
• When you log data on an OCS up to 2 Gigabytes of data can be stored locally on the OCS. EnvisionFX can gather this data periodically, archiving it to the PC for storage, analysis or reports.
Operation• Connect to one of the devices on the networking using
one of the many methods CsCAN supports.• Files can be transferred to and from the removable
memory on any device on the network.
