In addition, accurate product counting was also required to allows the logging of products manufactured per shift.

The Master USB unit was connected to a laptop with the Win Software installed. The 3 Wireless Slave modules with Red/Amber/Green light tower modules were added to the Filter, Labeller and Cartoner by supply 24VDC signals indicating when the machine had been stopped, was running or was switched to engineering Maintenance.
A signal on the Slave connected to the Cartoner also had a 24VDC signal from a product counter sensor.
The information from the slaves was sent via a Wireless Signal to the Master unit and collated in the software.
