Title: Can TCP/IP datalogger read a value from a database and add via odbc
Post by: Toot on May 25, 2010, 09:33:03 PM
I have three weight scales and i simply log the values into mdb via ODBC. I need to compare (on the fly if all possible) if the weight are within tolerance. The tolerances are located in a different table in same database.

Can the TCP/IP software read these tolerance values and copy them to the new record with the new value from the scale when it comes in? I would like to trigger an output on the serial converter to indicate trouble with the weight. Basically, I haven't figured out how to compare the incoming value with set value, since the database is being filled in the back ground by ODBC, which works great by the way.

Love your product sofar. Great lay-out. Thanks,

I'm sorry, but this is a complex task for our software. You can compare weights with predefined values (with help of the Script Execute  plugin), but can't do it with values from a database table.
