SmartCheck FAQs and HowTos: Data Exchange

Can I copy measurement configurations from one SmartCheck to another?

Yes, you can copy measurement configurations from one SmartCheck to another. You can download a configuration from one SmartCheck via SmartWeb (File -> Save device configuration) and apply it to the next SmartCheck (File -> Upload device configuration). The same can be achieved using the SmartUtility (Light) software, by downloading the configuration (More actions -> Download configurations) and uploading it to the next device(s) (More actions -> Upload configurations).

Can the SmartCheck read data from external systems?

Other than measuring values, SmartCheck can also read data from external systems via network. For this, you can use the following protocols:

  • OPC UA. In this case the device acts as an OPC UA server. You define an input under the external channel for the OPC UA server. Then the OPC UA client (external system) can write values to this input channel.
  • Mitsubishi Controller (SLMP). In this case the device acts as a SLMP client. You define an input under the external channel for the SLMP client. The device will read values from the Mitsubishi controller and store them in this input channel.

How can SmartCheck provide data to external systems?

There are several ways for the SmartCheck to provide data to external systems. We created a document which explains these for several different use cases. You can download this document here: Data exchange with SmartCheck
