BluePiano Bluetooth Input Method for Android The input method BluePiano extends Android with Bluetooth data acquisition . This new input method provides a Bluetooth-enabled soft-keyboard . This soft-keyboard captures Bluetooth data and forwards the received data to input fields of arbitrary apps. The data appears as entered by the user (watch the video on YouTube). BluePiano is typically used for barcode scanning with external Bluetooth barcode-scanners or for generic data acquisition tasks (e.g. to capture raw external GPS or medical device data). English, German, French, Russian and Swedish keyboard layouts are available. BluePiano is easy to use and provides you with connectivity feedback in the notification bar. For backup purposes BluePiano is also able to scan barcodes using camera barcode scanners (using the built-in or an external camera scanner app). BluePiano works with all Bluetooth SPP devices (Bluetooth devices supporting the Serial Port Profile, RFCOMM)....

In the past few months TEC-IT developed an  Android App for data acquisition with Bluetooth and TCP . The good feedback of the Android community motivated us to further enhance this app. The result: an universal data acquisition app including keyboard wedge functionality. The app is named GetBlue . The final version is available as slightly restricted freeware as well as commercial application. Here are the highlights: Android Keyboard Wedge / Virtual Keyboard : Captured device data can be entered into any application. Supported Input Devices :  Bluetooth SPP/RFCOMM, TCP (e.g. RFID controllers), HTTP applications and camera scanners apps like the ZXing Barcode Scanner. Supported Data-Sinks : Bluetooth SPP/RFCOMM, plain TCP, HTPP via Get and Post, Google Docs Spreadsheets, File. Data Acquisition Proxy  / Data Switchboard: Acquired data can be forwarded to any supported data-sink. Universal Data Acquisition App Use GetBlue like an universal data switchboa...

TEC-IT announces the availability of the first product videos for the data acquisition software TWedge . What is TWedge? TWedge extends arbitrary databases and applications with flexible real-time data collection. Modifications of the target systems are not required! Use this software wedge with RS232, serial, Bluetooth, USB and TCP/IP interfaces. Captured data is forwarded immediately to databases, applications and ERP systems like SAP R/3. Choose between direct ODBC database access, file access or keystroke simulation (keyboard wedge). In the first video the usage of the software wedge TWedge is explained. The second video shows how to use the scripting features of TWedge. The scripting features enable you to modify the device data, to communicate with devices in a bi-directional way, to configure hot-key and timer-based functions and to perform basic user-interactions. More information about TEC-IT products you will find on our youtube channel TECITSoftware .

The service release V2.4 of TWedge ( software wedge , keyboard wedge , Bluetooth wedge , TCP wedge ) is now available for download. In version 2.4 an issue with failed TCP/IP and Bluetooth connections was fixed. Check it out! Download Software Wedge .

TEC-IT released the new version of TWedgeCE - a software wedge for mobile devices . What is TWedgeCE? TWedgeCE captures data from external devices and translates them into virtual keystrokes. It acts as middleware between arbitrary data acquisition devices (like scales, gauges, barcode scanners, RFID controllers, etc.) and software applications like Pocket Excel or Mobile Internet Explorer. TWedgeCE operates in the background of the mobile device and can be configured easily via simple configuration files. Highlights: Version 2.0 is able to work with devices via the following interfaces: Serial / RS232 Bluetooth (native Bluetooth, no virtual COM ports required!) TCP/IP (client mode) TCP(IP (server mode) UDP (client mode) TWedgeCE is able to check device connectivity (I-Am-Alive), it recovers lost connections automatically (this is especially of interest for WLAN or Bluetooth connections) and finally introduces an anti-jitter feature. Availability: The mobile software wedge is available...

We are announcing the new version of the data acquisition software / software wedge TWedge. TWedge is smart middleware which connects to arbitrary devices via RS232 (COM port), Bluetooth (native!) and TCP/IP. The received data is either simulated as keystrokes , stored in a file or saved directly into an ODBC database . Improvements 0-byte awareness Previous versions clipped received or transmitted data after an 0x00 in the data stream. HEX data display Incoming data can be displayed as HEX string for better debugging Silent mode Device data display can now be turned off Release Candidate Download Download data acquisition software TWedge (MSI setup file for Windows).  Technorati Tags: Database Wedge , software wedge , keyboard wedge , daq , aidc , barcode wedge , BlueTooth Wedge , Data Collection Software , Data Capture Software , TWedge , TEC-IT

TEC-IT's data acquisition software TWedge allows an easy implementation of RFID controller protocols. TWedge can be adjusted to communicate with RFID controllers in a bi-directional way. Reading and processing tag identifiers is as easy as reading/writing tag data! The following TWedge script can be used to read RFID Tag IDs from EMS Datalogic RFID Controllers (utilizing the ABx Fast Protocol). The following script performs the following functions: 1) Query the RFID controller by pressing the hotkey 2) When data is received test it for a valid response 3) Display data in MessageBox Try it yourself - Download the software wedge for free ! Keep in mind: V2.3 or higher is required! Global Helper Functions HEX Conversion function encodeHex(input) { hexOutput = ""; for (i=0; i hexOutput = hexOutput + ' ' + Dec2Hex(input.charCodeAt(i)); } return hexOutput; } function encodeDec(input) { decOutput = ""; for (i=0; i decO...

The Problem: Maybe you are familiar with this scenario: You are connecting a barcode scanner, an electronic scale or an RFID reader to your computer. When capturing data it turns out that the device is sending identical values multiple times . This happens if the user scans a barcode repeatedly, a scale sends the weight of the item periodically or if a RFID reader reports the value of a RFID tag at regular intervals. The Solution: TWedge provides a very flexible and elegant solution to this problem. The software wedge can be customized to suppress multiple, identical values easily: Just save the last data value received from the device and compare it with the current one. Forward the device data to target application only if these values are not identical. Here is the script: The Software Wedge Script: OnStart() is the perfect place to initialize the last received data value ( sLastData ) with a null value. OnStart is executed when device communication is initialized (e.g. the seria...
