Plant and Equipment Data Acquisition and Performance Evaluation Software

Introducing the newest PMT product... the PocketDataLog^TM

.

The combined software/hardware package is designed to replace the unruly job of hand logging data.  Currently, many process and utility plants still require that operators complete data sheets several times per shift, logging in operating data from as many as 100+ instruments.  This job is time consuming, often valueless, and at times even dangerous.

.

Important data is regularly retrieved and written, but often ignored afterwards.  In the facilities that bother to re-enter the data into a computer, the job is time and dollar consuming.  Additionally, the computer files will inevitably have "keyboarding" errors, and are usually not screened for irregular or dangerous values.  To obtain the field data, operators usually carry the data sheets on clipboards while navigating ladders, narrow and/or elevated platforms, and other areas where it is highly desirable to have both hands available to hold onto support rails.

The PocketDataLog re-defines the operation into an efficient, effective and safe data acquisition method.  It provides a handheld PocketPC (easily fitting into an operators shirt, jacket or pants pocket) and software that will guide the operator to each instrument, accept numerical data on the touch screen, check the data for "out-of-bounds" values, and then automatically transfer the data to a desktop PC when the operator returns to the control room.

The Starter Pack retails for $1,895 and includes a Compaq iPAQ PocketPC, the PocketDataLog software, and 8 hours of phone support from PMT.  Options include hardware upgrades, additional technical support, multiple licenses, custom software, etc.  The OS for the software is Microsoft's newest Windows CE 3.0.

And don't forget our Control Room Window software... the MS Excel simulation for your process plant!

Additionally, PMT can develop custom software for any process or machinery monitoring using industry standard applications compatible with Microsoft^® Office components.

Research and Development PMT's team approach allows unique solutions to be nurtured and developed into sound, economical and safe practices.
