• print to PDF • print to Android screen • print to Email

Eliminate legacy printers or keep the printer and capture
print data in the background.

Legacy equipment may include measurement and analyzer instruments, alarm systems, DOS PC's, industrial machines, Linux systems, weigh scales, onity or vingcard lock card encoders and any device that uses a parallel LPT port or RS232 serial port.

Use to record serial data from instruments, machines,
sensors, alarm systems, and print cables.

- Logs to USB/SD Reader Drive or choice USB Flash Drives e.g. 64GB
- Dual Serial Port Pass-Thru
- Power Outage File Save For Reliability
- Auto Timeout File Save For Reliability
- Record RS232, RS485, or MCU 3.3V-5V TTL Serial Data
- Logs ASCII and Binary (all possible 8 bit codes).

Power Outage Save feature is a necessity if you are capturing hard to replace important data:
- When a power outage is detected, the logger safely closes
the Thumbdrive log file so that the file structure is complete and the file does not become inaccessible.

Please inquire. More Info
