Product Overview
 

The VIA-S100 Windows-based archiving and transmittal software with measuring capabilities is designed for the professional who needs a simple way to store images, transmit them over the Internet or local area network (LAN), measure details, or record a series of measurements for use in other applications to make reports, charts, spreadsheets and presentations.

The VIA-S100 can also print the image with or without the VIA measurement overlay. The VIA-S100 is designed to grab an image using a frame grabber, or a TWAIN compatible device, such as a digital camera or scanner. The software can also operate without a camera or a scanner when images are created and displayed on screen with another application.

Measuring features include X, Y, XY, diagonals (point to point), angles, circumferences, particle counting, hardness measurements, and a timer. The VIA-S100 software also allows users to query its database of stored images by descriptive fields or use a thumbnail search. Transmit the image along with overlay, text, and voice information to another computer for review, inspection, examination or comparison. Clip all or part of an image and insert it into a document or presentation. E-mail, network, or link by modem to share information.

The VIA-S100 is compatible with Intel/486 or higher PCs having 32 MB RAM, SVGA monitor, and a Windows 95/98 operating system, or Windows NT 4.0 or higher. Additional computer software requirements include MS Office Pro with Access database software, and Microsoft Outlook or Exchange E-mail software.

Features

Archive and retrieve images with information such as text and voice messages. Review thumbnail images before retrieving, or search the database for a key word or album name.

Transmit images, text, and voice to share information with another workstation for further review. Images can be transmitted with the marker overlay.

Unlimited calibrations may be stored for future use.

Measures the horizontal (X) dimension, vertical (Y) dimension, horizontal-vertical (XY) dimension and diagonals (point-to-point).

Calculates the angle when operators place two or more points to define each leg of an angle, even when the vertex is not in view.

Measures the radius and circumference of a circle when operators place three or more points along the perimeter of a circular image.

Measures hardness test indentations and automatically determines Knoop, Vickers, or Brinell hardness values. Approximate conversions to Rockwell B or C can also be displayed.

Statistics mode with mean, standard deviation, low reading, high reading, and range for X, Y, XY, point-to-point, angle, radius, circumference, area measurements. Transfer the data to a spreadsheet.

Security menu allows protection of calibrations. With this protection enabled, only the password holder can alter calibrations.

Allows comparison of half of the live image with half of the stored image on screen for quick visual inspection.

Optional knob controller with card allows quick and precise positioning of measurement lines that is the hallmark of other Boeckeler VIA measuring products.

Optional digitizing tablet allows quick and precise positioning of markers.

Calculates the area of a cell or shape when operators define the cell or shape.

Offers a counting mode. Operators tag each cell or particle to be counted. Up to 10 different categories can be marked.

Measurement lines may be displayed in different colors or shades for optimal contrast with the video image.

Networking capability allows multiple users to share the database. Images may be retrieved or posted anywhere in the network, without exiting the systems. FTP access and E-mail are available from within the system.

Print to any Postscript or inkjet printer that uses a Windows 95/98 driver.

Video input and output available with any TWAIN compatible device and one of two Coreco Ultra II frame grabbers, or one of three FlashPoint Intrigue frame grabbers; NTSC composite, S-Video (Y/C) and RGB.

Clipboard allows users to clip all or part of an image and insert it into a word processing document, presentation application, or spreadsheet.

Backup feature allows user to save and restore settings and calibrations.

Compatible with Intel/486 or higher PCs having 32 MB RAM, SVGA monitor, and Windows 95/98 or NT 4.0 or higher operating system. Additional computer software requirements include MS Office Pro with Access database software, and Microsoft Outlook or Exchange E-mail software.
