Bring Your Own Device...

With the Introduction of ProComSol's DevCom Smart Device Communicator using the Android, iOS (APPLE), and Windows platforms, it only seems fitting to address the device the Apps will be used on.  The trend of using employee owned devices within an organization has been and will continue to be on the rise.  Studies suggest the cost of hardware is a substansial savings to the company, increases productivity, prevents IT from having to continuously keep up with new technology available on the market, and is appealing to employees thus increasing moral.  Click below for our white paper on the "Advantages of a Mobile App Based HART Communicator" for more information.

 

App Based HART Communicator

 

 


DevCom + EtherNet = Easy Remote Access with HART IP

 

 

The HART® Protocol was enhanced in 2012 to include the transmission of HART data over the Internet Protocol (IP) using Transmission Communication Protocol (TCP).  HART-IP is simply the HART protocol rendered over Ethernet. The addition of HART-IP capability to HART host applications provides a quick and easy way to configure, monitor and diagnose HART devices on WirelessHART networks.  HART Device communications can be wireless if the plant has a Wi-Fi network in place. HART-IP device access then removes the need to go onto the plant floor to view or change the configuration of a device. This provides significant time and cost savings and improved personnel safety.  For more in depth information, a link to our white paper is below or shoot us an e-mail.sales

"We just installed a good-sized biofuel project with 600-700 instruments and valves, and expanded another biofuel plant with 1,200-1,400 instruments and valves, and we thought there had to be a better way than the outdated, 15-pound, $6,000-$7,000 handheld we'd been using to program, test and commission HART valves, check instruments and do loop checks," says Peter Love, senior systems engineer for automation at Kice. "Eventually, we came across DevComDroid smart device communicator from ProComSol, which costs $1,000-$2,000, and includes a Bluetooth HART modem and app for doing complete HART device configurations with an Android smart phone."  Click below for entire article.

Factoid.... 

 


February 16 is Chinese New Year (aka Spring Festival).  2018 is the year of the Dog. The Dog is also associated with the Earthly Branch (地支—dì zhÄ«) xÅ« (戌), and the hours 7–9 in the evening. In the terms of yin and yang (阴阳—yÄ«n yáng), the Dog is yang.  In China, a popular Dog name is Wàng Cái (旺财). It means “prosperous wealth” and comes from dogs’ barking sounds (旺旺—wàng wàng).  Here's to a year of health and prosperity in the year of the Dog!
