With over 30 years’ experience in data acquisition, and hundreds of drivers to choose from, CimWay®, the data acquisition layer in the PcVue Solutions’ portfolio is the foundation of our real-time data infrastructure. Data acquisition is the general term used for the collection of data from equipment. PLC’s, PAC’s, RTU’s, industrial I/O, Controllers, measurement units and meters, fan controllers, protection relays… all fall into this category.
