Software and display instruments

Display, transmit and evaluate measured values

With our selection of display instruments, adjustment devices and software,
measured values are reliably transmitted and every application optimally
integrated – regardless of the distance.

The choice is yours: Should display and adjustment take place directly on site
local to the sensor? Then you’ll be supported by the pluggable display and
adjustment module PLICSCOM, or the external adjustment unit VEGADIS.
Over short distances up to a maximum of 50 m, Bluetooth can be used. Over
long distances, you can receive the data via worldwide mobile networks with
the external radio-telemetry unit PLICSMOBILE. Or you can reliably plan and
visualise your product stocks anywhere with VEGA Inventory System.

Depending on your requirements, the options range from simple on-site

adjustment on the sensor display to laptop, tablet or smartphone.
