A keyboard wedge is a piece of hardware or software that translates native RS-232 serial or digital gage outputs into keystrokes that are interpreted by the computer as keyboard characters. This allows legacy device data to be input into any software application including spreadsheets, web based applications, custom application and mobile devices.Â
One of the key features in each of the MicroRidge Product Families is the ability to send gage data via a keyboard wedge output. The keyboard wedge output allows an operator (person taking measurements) to send gage data to any software including web/cloud-based programs, Microsoft Excel, and any internal/proprietary software at your manufacturing site.
MicroRidge offers native keyboard wedge output on the MobileCollect Wedge Base, GageWay KW, GageWay Pro Series, WedgeLink SP, and WedgeLink AT. The hardware wedge output on these devices conforms to the USB Human Interface Device (HID) specification.
