Productivity SmartApps™
Customize your SmartDispenser® with the Import – Export Step Count SmartApp™
This SmartApp™ was requested by an aerospace/defense manufacturer working on multiple research and development projects. Once installed, the Administrator can activate the SmartApp™ to allow a single operator to use four LDS Dispense Guns; each with a different assembly fluid. The SmartApp™ provides the flexibility to change among the four guns without completely emptying the fluid reservoir (syringe).
With the SmartApp,™ the set up in this case is as follows:
- Each LDS Dispense Gun is labeled Gun 1, Gun 2, Gun 3 and Gun 4.
- Each LDS Dispense Gun has a corresponding USB memory flash drive labeled Gun 1, Gun 2, Gun 3 and Gun 4.
- An Import step count button is added to SmartDispenser®’s program menu.
- An Export step count button is added to SmartDispenser®’s program menu.
When the operator wants to change the LDS dispense guns:
- The operator inserts the corresponding USB Stick for the gun being used, pushes export step count and the step count is recorded on the USB flash memory drive. The gun is disconnected and data is stored with the USB stick.
- The operator connects a new gun, inserts the corresponding USB memory flash drive, pushes import step count and the step count is automatically loaded from the flash drive into the SmartDispenser.®
