Parts

• Track 100’s of Parts.  Customize each part for your data collection needs.
• Up to 1000 Variables per part, each independently configurable.
• Tag data with identifiers.  They are great for tracking lot numbers or Employee IDs.
• Subgroups organize your measurements into logical blocks.  The screen shows the subgroup you are on, and your current sample within the group.
• VariCycle™ technology lets you preset when to switch variables for hands-free operation while collecting data.
• Collect 60,000 measurements on a standard Palm or Visor.  That’s one point every ½ second on an 8 hour shift.

Identifiers

• Define up to 9 identifiers for each part.
• 6 types of identifiers let you enter data quickly.
• Save 2000 screens’ worth of identifiers per part.
• Auto fill-in pulls forward your last entries to speed data entry.
• Edit entries on the Palm computer.

Variables

• Run chart shows trends, target value, and spec limits.
• SmartAxis^™ scale converts between units on the same chart while keeping the most important data in front of you.
• The on screen Keypad makes quick work of manually editing or entering measurements.
• Set the Alarm to warn you if a point is out of spec.
• Attach Notes to any measurements using the Graffiti® handwriting system, or the on screen keyboard.
• Calculate Statistics like mean, standard deviation, estimated sigma, sample size, min, and max for each variable.
• CpK and PpK values are shown whenever you have subgrouping turned on. Cp and Pp are also provided.
• Assign Units to any measurement, or automatically record the units from the gauge.  You can also work with no units if you prefer.
• A Date and Time stamp is automatically recorded for each measurement.
• Sample Counter shows you how many measurements you have made.
• Record 2000 measurements per variable.
• Use your Gauge button to record a measurement, or for older gauges use one of the gauge buttons on the Palm computer.

File Formats

• Microsoft Access saves data in a relational format.  Programs, like MiniTab and QI Analyst, can quickly query the data for later use.
• Microsoft Excel saves each part in a separate sheet.  Variables and identifiers each get their own column.
• Text files save data in an easy to format style.
• Industry standard formats.  Version available for SQC Pack, Synergy 2000, WinSPC, QS Stat, InfinityQS, and MagicWindows.

Advanced

• RS232 wizard lets you configure the DataGet RS232 cartridge for use with almost any gauge.
• Auto Delete of old data after it has been saved to the PC.  You can also delete old data manually.
• 2 or 3 Point Calibration Wizard holds over 100 user defined calibrations on the Palm computer.  The same calibration can be used with different analog gauges.
• VariScan^SM  barcode system finds and configures variables using a barcode scanner.  You specify the barcode format and our in-house engineers can build you a customized solution.
• Add as many Palm computers as you want to your PC.  DataGet software can keep track of them all.
• DataGet XML  allows you to create part setup information on the PC, and download it to the handheld.
