Introduction
The GageMux® USB is a device which allows you to connect two (2), four
(4), or (8) eight digital gages to a USB port or to a single RS-232 serial
port or USB Keyboard on any desktop computer, notebook computer,
printer, or other serial device.
The GageMux® USB will work with gages that have Digimatic outputs
such as Mitutoyo digital gages. You can connect any brand of gage or
RS232 device to the GageMux® USB using direct gage cables or the
ASDQMS FlashCable®. The direct gage cables include standard gage
cables manufactured by Mitutoyo Corporation, or any other gage cable
compatible with Mitutoyo Digimatic output. Other types of gages and
RS232 serial devices can be connected to the GageMux® using our
configurable FlashCable®.
The GageMux® USB is configured through internal rotary switches,
commands from a host computer, or using the internal E-commands
programming. These commands include:
