MULTI MEASURE 5000

TubeCAD includes the SGFILE command that is a file dialog for loading and saving SupraGauge files.

Since the dialog recognizes DOS networks, our customers create a direct link between the TubeCAD workstation and SupraGauge-compatible measuring centers using their network.

Using this approach means that the measuring center becomes a virtual hard drive or directory for your TubeCAD workstation. If the measuring center is availble on the network, then its presence is displayed in the SGFILE dialog. Files can be loaded directly from and saved directly to its hard drive.
