Humidity & Temperature Monitoring

Hardware and Software Configuration

Machine Terminal:

The Machine Terminal comes with an in-built microprocessor, a user friendly keyboard and display for ease of operations. It is installed at each knitting machine control most of the routine functions and communicate in real time with the central computer which provides large-scale data log.

Multiplexer:

The multiplexer(abbreviated as MUX) collects the data from the Machine Terminals installed at each knitting machines. Multiplexer (MUX) is a device allowing multiple low-speed input signals to be selected, combined and transmitted at a higher speed single line signal to the centralized computer.

Transponder:

The transponder used in wireless communication that collects the data from each Machine Terminals. A transponder is a wireless communications, monitoring, or control device that picks up and automatically responds to an incoming signal. The transponder can transmit and receive signal.

Software:

The computer on which the Online monitoring system software is installed, collects the data from the Machine Terminals through the Multiplexer and generates various reports. The software acquires the data from the looms and arranges in well-structured reports, which can be easily interpreted. The reports can be called through the Menu Driven User Friendly Software. GUI nature of the software eliminates the complicated keystrokes and codes. It has the facility to transfer the data to an ERP system. The software can be installed on various nodes across the plant.
