Manual data entry

Data collections are grouped in tours. Each tour contains a set of tags and tag groups that define a data set that will be collected manually.

PC data entry

You can set up a PC as a data entry station using PI Manual Logger's built-in data entry screens. You can also use the data entry screens for review. Lab data and plant log sheet data entries are typically handled in this way.

Device browser data entry

You can collect data using any device with an HTML5-compliant browser with PI Manual Logger Web 2014. With the barcode feature, you can use external scanning devices or scanning software that works with the device's camera to identify tags and enter data.

Mobile devices with optional barcode scanners

You can collect data using Windows Mobile devices with PI Manual Logger Mobile 2012. With the barcode feature, you can use scanning devices to identify tags and enter data.
