This basic software connects to our iLoad Series load cells or any resistive load cell connected to a DI-100/DI-1000 interface and displays the value of the force, load or weight. You can zero out initial load (Tare) to display net weights taking out any initial values. You can also change units to display the values in grams, kilograms, Newtons, pounds or oz. This software is included with all purchased load cells and the install disc contains all the drivers needed to install and run our load cells.

This software allows a user to display the load/force/weight, log the data to a comma separated Excel friendly file and to plot the Force vs. Time data as a X-Y Plot on a Windows PC or Tablet.

 

It has a calibration utility, remote support and quick acess to device manager built in making it a very valuable tool. The user can set time intervals at which data is logged and can set limits beyond which alerts are either via email, SMS or as an audible alarm.

 

LV-1000 can handle up to 1000 data samples per second.

While LoadVUE works with Load, Force or Weight Sensors, SensorVUE supports a variety of sensors including load, force, weight, torque, pressure, level, temperature & displacement sensors. SensorVUE can handle data rates up to 1 KHz and offer remote support, recalibration utility as well as easy access to important system tools like Putty and Device Manager.

 

LV-4000 and LV-4000HS have been discontinued and are no longer supported. If you are using these versions, please upgrade to SensorVUE.

While LoadVUE and SensorVUE allow a user to get digital information from a sensor, ControlVUE enables a user to control external devices. It enables a user to control a USB Relay with one, two or eight channels to turn on/off a variety of 110V/220V (2 A) devices or to control a USB Stepper Motor's angular position and speed. By coupling a rack and pinion gear system onto the motor, a user can also create a linear actuator. By using sensors and these simple control mechanisms a user can create automated solutions for applications such as bagging, filling and packaging. ControlVUE includes the full feature set of SensorVUE above.

Most weighing applications are static or quasi-static in nature and don't require more than ten to twenty readings per second. But some applications such as hammer test or impact force measurement or dynamic force measurements need much higher data rates to capture events that take place within just a few milliseconds.

For applications such as these, we have developed the LV-1000HS-10K which works with our DI-1000U-10K USB Interface to provide a high-data rate capable solution (up to 50 KHz) for displaying, logging and plotting force/load/weight information. SensorVUE software is our most recent version that can handle data rates upto 1KHz and is compatible with Windows 8 and Windows 10.

This software not only displays the actual force or weight measured by four connected load cells, it also displays the center of force or center of gravity between the four corners of a rectangle at the corners of which the load cells are placed. A user can also turn on a track CG feature that will show how the CG is changing with time.

 

Users can use it display, log and plot center of gravity or use it to track CG of objects or the movement of things or people as in the case of a golf player swinging his club.

 

This software allows a user to display the measured punch force and count the number of punches thrown in a period of time. This allows a boxer or martial arts trainee or coach to monitor the performance of an athlete, track their improvement from week to week and help them to achieve peak performance.

StockVUE is a weight based solution for tracking inventory. It doesn't require RFID or Bar Codes, or Cameras. StockVUE is perfect for bulk items, liquids, and gases and can accurately weigh very light items like plastic washers that weigh fractions of an ounce or heavy industrial parts that weigh hundreds of pounds.
