But ASPNet can dramatically simplify staff responsibilities while gathering accurate, up to the minute, information and storing it directly to your computer network. Imagine an ASPNet Terminal installed at each production workstation in a factory, and a barcode added to each job card. Staff involvement may be as simple as scanning the card when the job reaches their station. From this, management can tell where a job is, and by counting the time until the next job card is scanned at that station, how much time went into the process undertaken. The example may be simple but the implications are profound.
Collected data is accurate and immediate, a solid basis for action.
More complex applications are easily implemented because the Terminals include a two line LCD display, and a sealed keypad. They connect back to a host PC via a low cost RS422 network, and their bright red cases don't get lost in factory clutter. So ASPNet gives you more control with less paper, and in less time. Barcode based tracking in real time with fast implementation and low cost Access Controller ASP's ASPNet Access Controller is compatible with the ASPNet Network, and can be used to control door access. While this product is not intended for high security unattended building access, there are many applications where a lower level of security is all that is needed, and it is convenient to collect usage information on the production tracking network.
