The TRi-ExcelLink
software provide you an extremly simple-to-use, two-way linkage of data between
the PLCs and an MS Excel* spreadsheet. It is an application software that works
in tandem with the TLServer program (this is included in your Internet TRiLOGI
Version 5.1). Hence, not only can you capture PLC data directly from the local
PC running both the TLServer and ExcelLink program, you can also simultaneously
capture data from up to 8 TLServers that are connected to the LAN or the
Internet! This is illustrated in the following diagram:

Now, think of what you can do with such incredible power! For the first
time ever, you can build an extremly low cost data acquisition system that can
simultaneously collect factory floor data from hundreds of PLCs situated in
multiple locations around the world into an Excel spreadsheet in real time!
Note: You can also use the TRi-ExcelLink software
to collect data from third party equipment , including other brands of
PLCs by using an M-series PLC as a "bridge" to interface to those
equipment via serial or parallel I/Os. E.g. Since an M-series PLC can speak
MODBUS and OMRON protocols they are ready to communicate with MODBUS RTUs or
OMRON PLCs to capture the required information.
With the power of TBASIC, you can also
program an M-series PLC (yes, even via the Internet) to churn out whatever
unique communication protocols to speak to other types of equipment. For those
equipment without a host communication protocol, you can also use the M-series
PLC's vast array of digital or analog I/Os to collect data from them and make
them accessible to the Excel spreadsheet via the
Internet!

The TRi-ExcelLink
Advantage
- Run in the
background: Since TRi-ExcelLink is a client to the TLServer, you
can run both the TRi-ExcelLink and TRiLOGI software simultaneoulsy. Hence a
technician can perform a local monitoring of the PLC operation while the
TRi-ExcelLink software is collecting data, without interfering with each other.
In addition, multiple TRi-ExcelLinks can run simultaneously at different
locations. Hence in the above examples, the management in London, China and
Santa Clara all can view the production status of all sites simultaneously in
their spreadsheet, and of course, all in real time!
- Extremely Easy
to Use: Unlike most other DDE server software on the market
which require you to write macro programs or enter specific formula in the
spreadsheet before you are able to capture any data, the TRi-ExcelLink software
can open up a blank, new spreadsheet and start filling in data the moment you
click on the "Run" button. All the actions are configured using very simple
forms. Click Here To View the ExcelLink

- Very Low
Cost: Most other DDE servers in the market (e.g. WinWedge,
Modlink) cost from US$250 upwards. But the TRi-ExcelLink software is now
available at only US$149.00 i.e. less than half the price for most other rival
products that require a steep learning curve before you can use them.
