Personal Note

Although we will miss seeing many of you at IMTS this month we hope you are doing well and staying healthy and safe. In these difficult times Prolink has been working hard to add features and functionality that will meet the changing needs of our customers and we wanted to share some of them with you.

Did You Know?

QC-CALC Real-Time now has a built in Speed Test tool. This new feature, accessible via the Help menu, tests the standard data collection and retrieval functions of QC-CALC Real-Time and compares the results to other PCs. It allows for single or multiple tests scheduled over a period to discover if network/server traffic causes slowness during certain times of the day. The function will graphically show how a PC's speed fluctuates over time or compare it to all the other PCs running QC-CALC Real-Time in the plant. Additionally, if the PC has internet connectivity you can anonymously compare your PC's speed to the Prolink database of thousands of PCs around the world. Customers are finding this tool useful in identifying faulty network cables, routers, switches, and NET cards. See the graphical result below.
