USB Direct Cable for Mitutoyo 500-Series Gages

Send data directly to Excel—No Software Wedge Required

Simplify your data acquisition system. This USB Direct Cable single gage interface connects the a standard Mitutoyo gage to a computer. Connects directly to the gage, no additional cables required. The output of the USB Direct Cable gage interface is a standard USB 2.0 keyboard signal.

This is the ideal cable to use with Mitutoyo Digital Drop Indicators because it has a built-in data send button. This cable is what many have been requesting to use with digital indicators when they do not want to disturb the reading by pushing a send button at the gage. This USB Direct Cable gets the data send process away from the indicator so your readings are accurate every time. There is no need to add the expense of a separate footswitch—but if you want use one, there is a footswitch port on the USB Direct Cable box.

Connecting this USB Direct Cable with its built-in keyboard interface to a computer will allow the USB Direct Cable to be identified as a keyboard device that can send data to any Microsoft Windows application or SPC internet explorer software – no complicated software wedges required. And it never changes when your software updates.

The USB Direct Cable gage interface will make the gage readings appear as if they were typed in using a standard keyboard – eliminates data collection errors. If you want to collect data into a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet, simply select the cell where you want the data to appear.

Readings can be triggered by any of the following:

• Pressing the push button on the USB Direct Cable gage interface
• Depressing a connected footswitch (not included)
• Pressing the send button on the gage (if it has one)

Simple to use!

This USB Direct Cable is easily configured to output data in different modes, such as CR, TAB, up, down, left, right continuous reading, continuous reading with automatic 10, 15, or 30 second delay between readings. We can also design a unique firmware for your special requirement. The output mode is selected by adjusting the rotary switch on the USB Direct Cable Keyboard. To access the rotary switch, simply remove the top cover by loosening two Phillips screws.
