What do you need to know?
Data is like water: poor quality can ruin you and too much can drown you. So the first step is to determine what you need to know and what you will do with the data once you have it.
Want to use the data for reports? Do you want dynamic data on a website accessible by anyone you choose? Do
you want specific changes in data to generate automatic actions by remote machinery? Do you want alarms to be
triggered when certain parameters are exceeded? We can do all the above or just tell us what you need and we can
do that too. |

Getting the raw data
The data originates where the water is located. Our engineers have the experience to collect data from any commercially available remote terminal, data-logger, measurement and control unit, or programmable logic controller (PLC). When measurements have to be taken in a remote location, we use self-contained, remotely deployable data collection and monitoring systems with components chosen for low power usage, reliability, and ease of configuration. They can be stationed in rugged terrain where they will operate dependably for years without human visits. |

Putting the data to use
Once in hand, data needs to be managed and utilized. That's where Merlin comes in. Merlin is a data collection and processing application that collects data from any source including OPC DA, other third party RDMs, data-loggers, spreadsheets, PLCs, and applies a systematic approach to defining location, instrument type, measurement type, and units. There is no limit to the types of instruments, sensors, and measurements that can be defined and used in Merlin. Merlin's graphical interface shows instrument and monitoring status at a glance. |
