About
LSIZE Wireless
When collecting
measurements, all you have to carry is the Mitutoyo gage with the attached LSIZE
Mobile Module. You will place the LSIZE Handheld in a convenient location
in your measurement collection area. The Handheld receives the wireless
measurements from the LSIZE Mobile Module and sends a measurement received
acknowledgement back to the Mobile Module.
With the large color screen on the Handheld, you will be able to see what you
are doing while taking measurements and also view stats, histograms, etc. right
there. When you are ready to download into the LSIZE software on your PC, you take
the Handheld and place it into the docking station (that is included) by your
computer and download directly into the LSIZE software.
The wireless technology that is used by LSIZE Wireless was developed by MicroRidge and has been shipping to general manufacturing facilities since October 2006.
The LSIZE Mobile Module provides the wireless link between your gage and the Handheld. It fits conveniently on the back of your gage and provides user feedback via highly visible LEDs.
The LSIZE Handheld is a ruggedized unit designed for industrial environments that wirelessly receives measurements from the Mobile Module. The Handheld features a large color touch screen and contains the software and firmware designed and developed by MicroRidge.
The Docking Station provides the communications link between the Handheld and LSIZE software on your PC. It is typically located next to your PC.
LSIZE Wireless must be used in conjunction with the LSIZE software on your PC. The LSIZE software on your PC is used to configure the measurement bins for LSIZE Wireless and to receive the measurements collected by LSIZE Wireless.
The bin specifications and measurements are transferred to and from LSIZE Wireless when the Handheld is placed into the Docking Station that is included with LSIZE Wireless.
If you are familiar with the previous MicroPak data collector, the displays available via the LSIZE Mobile software on the Handheld are a significant improvement from the technology available in the MicroPak. LSIZE Mobile software provides visual and useful interaction and feedback with the user during the measurement collection process.
