Electrostatic Monitoring | |
|
For most of us, electrostatic is an occasional nuisance; a bother when the clothes come out of the dryer, or a surprise when we touch the doorknob. In the electronics manufacturing industry, though, it's a major hazard that is deadly to the semiconductor devices or disk drives being assembled. Novx Corporation manufactures a line of instruments designed to measure environmental factors such as electrostatic potential, humidity, particulate density, and more. They needed a software product to communicate with up to 1024 of these devices at one time, record, display, and alarm-check the data, and be scalable so new device models could be introduced without a great deal of hassle. Culverson produced such a product, that accepts, decodes, and stores data from 1024 devices, using 32 serial ports, all operating simultaneously. |

| This setup screen allows the user to set overall information such as plot colors, logging parameters, and alarm times. |
|
| This setup screen allows the user to configure "areas" using an image, and attach text and basic shapes to that image to gives a visual display of the assembly-line floor. |
|
| This setup screen allows the user to configure individual channels, setting alarm limits, and device types. |
|
| This setup screen allows the user to place the stations in their approximate geographical location within the area. This gives a visual display of the assembly-line floor with the measuring stations overlaid. |
|
| This setup screen allows the user to configure custom equations to apply to individual stations for special purposes |
|
| When scanning, this window shows a live status indication for all 1024 stations. |
|
| When scanning, this window shows a live recent history of a selected station (some stations monitor more than one parameter; hence more than one graph). |
|
| When scanning, this window shows a live history of special events. |
|
| When scanning, this window shows the status of a whole area (group of stations). |
|
| This window shows a live or a historical graph of recorded data. Data can be selectively exported to a spreadsheet file, or |
