What's New in EASYLABEL 5
WIZARDS RFID - EASYLABEL 5’s RFID Wizard will allow you to program and print High Frequency (HF) and Ultra High Frequency (UHF) smart labels. The RFID Wizard will also assist you in creating an Electronic Product Code (EPC) and allow you to import the data to be programmed on the smart label from numerous sources.
GS1 Barcodes - Creating a GS1-128, GS1-Databar or GS1-Datamatrix Barcode has never been easier! EASYLABEL 5’s new GS1 Barcode wizard makes creating GS1 Barcodes a simple 4-step process. The wizard prompts you for the required information and then builds the bar code automatically! You even have the capability to create codes with multiple Application Identifiers. Placing GS1 Barcodes on your label is now a SNAP!
DATABASES
Databaseview - Database view is a new database editor that has been incorporated into EASYLABEL 5. This new editor natively supports the Microsoft Access structure allowing you to edit and create Access databases from within EASYLABEL 5. With the appropriate drivers you can view and edit almost any database structure including dBASE, Paradox, and Microsoft FoxPro, as well as many popular spreadsheet and text formats. Cross-reference - EASYLABEL 5 now provides you with the tools to design the most complicated chemical labels with certainty. If your task includes placing localized Risk and Safety phrases on your labels EASYLABEL 5’s Database Cross Reference function will help you accomplish this. Using Database Cross Reference you are able to not only pull in data from one database but from a second, third or more. Database Cross Reference acts as a pointer that directs EASYLABEL to the database where the data is stored.
ADVANCED
Security and Logging - With updated User Sign-on and Password options, New User Logging Options, and Audit Trail Options EASYLABEL 5 provides you with tools to help meet your FDA 21 CFR Part 11 compliance requirements. Middleware Capabilities - With such powerful features as Command File Monitoring, 32-bit ODBC (Open Database Connectivity) and ActiveX/COM controls, you can effortlessly communicate with and control EASYLABEL 5. Printing can originate from an AS/400, mainframe, UNIX, or host system. A link to Visual Basic, Delphi, C, C++ and other applications that support ActiveX facilitates the creation of custom screens, entry boxes and controls. By using EASYLABEL 5, you can connect to MRP II (Manufacturing Resource Planning), ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) systems such as SAP, Oracle, PeopleSoft, JD Edwards and BAAN, as well as MES (Manufacturing Execution Systems). Terminal Server - EASYLABEL 5 Terminal Server provides you with all of the features that the Platinum version offers with the ability to be run on the Windows Terminal Server platform. The software and hardware key are only installed on the Server. This makes the management of the software a SNAP! XML Generator - EASYLABEL Platinum’s XML Generator enables you to generate an XML template for a given format file(s). The Generator prompts for the format file name(s), the number of labels to print, which printer to use, and the variable data used to populate the fields on the format. The XML file that results from the Generator can be used as a template that can be uploaded to and populated from within an XML enabled application. XML files can come from any application that can output XML. The .Net framework and Windows 2000 or Windows XP are required to use the XML Monitor. XML Monitor - EASYLABEL Platinum’s XML Monitor will 'watch' a file directory or TCP/IP port and will automatically print labels whenever a compatible XML file is received. This provides a direct connection to Oracle and SAP. The file drop can also be: your E-mail application automatically copying an E-mail attachment to the directory, or another application automatically generating the file in the directory. The .Net framework and Windows 2000 or Windows XP are required to use the XML Monitor Remote Programming - EASYLABEL 5 can now be upgraded in the field, (or have users added in EASYLABEL 5 Multi-User) through Remote Programming. Remote Programming is accomplished by exchanging encrypted data files. These data files can be exchanged by any medium such as diskette or E-mail. The upgraded software can be used immediately after the Remote Programming process IP Printing - Use IP Printing (Internet Protocol) to print to a printer anywhere in the world, that is connected to a Print/Device server or Ethernet card, by using DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) or its IP address. Net Print Server - EASYLABEL Net Print Server (ELNPS) is an application that provides a web browser-based interface for label selection and printing. Users of web browsers on Windows PCs, non-Windows computers running Linux or Unix, Apple Mac and even a hand-held PDA can easily browse and select a label format. Although ELNPS Clients can be any system with a web browser, the ELNPS Label Server MUST be a Windows based system because of ELNPS’s use of ASP.NET. EASE OF USE
Enhanced GUI - EASYLABEL 5’s new Graphical User Interface (GUI) employs a new, sleek and intuitive design that anyone familiar with today’s office applications will feel right at home using. Format Browser - EASYLABEL 5’s new Format Browser allows you to keep track of the fields that exist on a format. The fields can be located through an expandable "tree" structure where they are grouped by Field Type, Data Source, Conditional fields, Increment/Decrement fields, Hidden/Phantom fields, and TrueType/Device fonts. Tabbed Dialog Boxes - Field properties are displayed logically by using tabbed dialog boxes. Similar options and features are grouped by tab to make finding the right one fast and easy. Alignment and Justification - To make it easier to align fields, we’ve added new alignment and justification choices. Common properties on 1 screen - To save time when editing properties in a number of different fields, we’ve added the ability to change all of the common properties, (such as character size or font style) at the same time, from one screen. Job List - EASYLABEL Platinum’s Job List File is basically a saved print queue. Job lists can be created to print specific sequences of labels. A job list can be opened, and all the jobs in the list can then be added to the print queue in one operation. It is also possible to send individual jobs or a selected group of jobs from the list to the Print Queue. Job List Files do not require any programming experience or special syntax. Therefore, they are an EASY way to automate label printing by loading the print queue with multiple print jobs. EasyTutor - EasyTutor is a multimedia training companion to EASYLABEL. Its purpose is to help you gain a solid working knowledge of the features and functions of EASYLABEL through multimedia movies and tutorials. |
