 | | New configurator for easy and quick creation or editing of
parametric files has been added in the new version of OPC UA
driver for Control Web. (more...) |
 | | Our online shop has been extended with the option of online
payment by credit card and automatic generation of license numbers as
soon as the payment is completed. (more...) |
 | | During the last few updates of Control Web, the number of bugs
that need to be corrected in this way has been significantly decreasing.
This is certainly a very good trend. Also, significant bug fixes that
threatened system stability have virtually disappeared. As the number of
errors decreases, there are a number of improvements and modifications
that facilitate and simplify the work of application program
authors. (more...) |
 | | There are not many production plants that are completely
constructed from pure water and fully interconnected and equipped with
the appropriate control and communication technology in the spirit of
Industry 4.0 slogans. Usually in every company there is some legacy of
the past - whether in buildings and their equipment or in production
machines and technologies. The versatility and wide range of
functionality of the Control Web software system enables virtually any
production site to be digitized and integrated in an extremely efficient
and elegant way. Let's show it on specific example. (more...) |
 | | If you need to connect multiple cameras via USB to one
computer, we usually must to add additional communication adapters to
the computer. That shouldn't be a problem - you might be wondering what
could go wrong with such simple things. (more...) |
 | | Surprisingly, many custom applications consulted with us
generate various warning and error messages as they run. Please note
them. Fixing problems is usually very easy and improvements are
worthwhile. (more...) |
 | | Advantech is a manufacturer of plug-in IO cards, providing a
full range of data acquisition (DAQ, data acquisition) and control
products that are widely used for industrial and laboratory
applications, monitoring, automation, testing, measurement, and so on.
supported by DAQNavi, which includes powerful and reliable device
drivers as well as program support. This support is also used by our
AdvDAQ driver for Control Web 8. (more...) |

 | | Increasing demands are placed on suppliers of custom solutions
for industrial production. Automation systems can no longer be isolated
devices, but must be linked to the entire intelligent manufacturing
information system. Thus, application authors need to be familiar with
many software technologies and application interfaces. The Control Web
program environment can be a good help to meet all current and future
requirements. (more...) |
 | | The licensing system has been greatly simplified in the new
version. A large number of users are accustomed to the older system and
do not know about the Control Web 8 licenses. Here is a
simple description of how not to get lost in the Control Web 8 licensing system. (more...) |
 | | Camera image processing and visual inspection is an
increasingly common part of today's industrial automation systems.
Therefore, the requirement for cooperation of vision systems with
control and automation systems is also of great importance. The
VisionLab machine vision system can be directly installed into the
Control Web software environment. Integrating visual inspection tasks
into industrial automation systems is therefore as efficient as
possible. (more...) |
 | | Use the new version of Control Web 8. You will have
plenty of new options. You can download and develop your applications
for free. You can install all the drivers for free, as well as the
VisionLab machine vision system. (more...) |
 | | “64bits” is a new
marketing buzz-word in the world of mobile phones and tablets, but it is
rather common in the world of Personal Computers. Despite the
64bit systems are available for many
years, especially recently number of newly installed 32bit systems sharply declines and 64bit systems dominate. Surprisingly, general
understanding what does it mean is very low and particularly baffling is
the fact, that 64bit operating system is
(fortunately) perfectly capable to run 32bit applications. The answer to the question which
driver version (32bit or 64bit) to install requires understanding of a few
concepts. (more...) |
 | | DataCam digital cameras use USB 2.0 interface for
communication with the host computer, offering high transfer speed up to
480 Mbps and plug-and-play connection. Moreover, USB interface includes
power supply for cameras, which do not need separate power supply, but
on the other hand, the maximum distance between cameras and computer is
limited. DataCam ETH Adapter removes this only disadvantage of
the DataCam cameras USB interface, and allows the
DataCam digital cameras to communicate with the computer over
long distances using the fast 1Gbps Ethernet interface. In addition, up
to 4 DataCam cameras can be connected to the single DataCam
ETH Adapter without the necessity of using additional active
network elements. (more...) |
 | | Machine vision systems currently get rid of the former
reputation of complicated, unreliable and expensive technology. The
development in image sensors area and especially the current CPU
performance approached the possibilities of machine vision to
user's demands. So the number of applications is growing rapidly. Growth
in the number of usage is largely caused by the growing demands on
so-called production quality, which is possible to achieve only by
inspection of every produced item. It is necessary to eliminate the
human factor for that kind of inspection, because
„nobody's perfect“. The machine vision is often not only the best,
but also the only possible way to implement the required
inspections. (more...) |
 | | The choice of the right way of scene lighting decides about
successfulness of solution of machine vision tasks and visual
inspection. DataLight DF15 lighting units can help us solve surprisingly
many problems with illuminating transparent, shiny and embossed plain
objects. These illuminators can e.g. highlight unclear prints of
integrated circuits and even a dust on a mirror. Let's see what the
principle of lighting in dark field is and how can these illuminators be
useful for us. (more...) |
 | | Ethernet is here with us for quite a long time. In this
year, it will be already twenty years since the inception of 10Base-T
standard with transmission speed of 10 Mbit/s, which brought
communication through UTP - Unshielded Twisted Pair and star bus
topology. Since 1990, the Ethernet way is open to all industrial
applications. Although the Ethernet is for a long time the most
successful and most spread type in computer network connection,
in systems of industrial automation was being asserted long and
complicated. (more...) |
 | | Choosing the right lighting can be in some cases more
important than the choice of the right camera. Useful complement to the
DataCam cameras can be the DataLight lighting units, which are possible
to control directly by these cameras. (more...) |
