ModCom

ModCom is a compact piece of software developed to make data acquisition (DAQ) easier, by perfectly syncing with the modules sold by the Weeder Technologies group. This app is supposed to facilitate the communication between the Stackable Data Modules for Industrial Control and Factory Automation, and the ModCOM user.

One way to quickly get around the app is to follow the brief demo that begins when the application is launched for the first time. The demonstration includes a list of panels that help you create an idea about what the app is capable of. Use the Stop button (red circle) at the end of the toolbar to stop or restart the demo whenever you want.

ModCom is a cluster of instrument gauges, push buttons, slider controls, event counters and timers, on-screen lights, PI-controllers, chart recorders, and more. As for the data management aspect, one should be able to generate logs that can later be exported as CVS or uploaded directly to the internet. Any user can write program scripts that can help with complicated background tasks.

ModCom looks like a compact tool that aims to assist with Data Acquisition and Industrial Automation tasks. It is useless, however, without the devices found on the developer's site.
