Texmate Software

The Texmate Development System (TDS).
The Texmate Development System is designed as a comprehensive professional suite for macro code development on the Tiger 320 and 380 platforms. It supports both serial and Ethernet connectivity to your Texmate Tiger series controller.

This is the recommended utility program to setup and configure your Tiger 320 Series Programmable Meter Controllers, (version 3.05C and later). To connect to the Tiger meter using serial RS-232 or RS-485 communication, please note that this program will run on the Windows 2000 and Windows XP operating systems only. To connect to the Tiger meter using Ethernet communication, please note that this program will run on Windows 98, Windows 2000 and Windows XP operating systems. For a version of this program that runs on the Linux operating system please contact us directly. If you are using the Texmate USB to RS-232 converter (CV-USB/232) please download the latest driver here: http://www.prolific.com.tw/eng/downloads.asp?ID=31

The Texmate Data Viewer is an easy to use graphing and data log extraction package for the Texmate Tiger series of Programmable Meter Controllers. It connects to your meter through a serial (RS232/485) line or Ethernet (TCP/IP) connection and reads the data in the data log for display, export, or graphing. You can also fully configure the data log, and set logging timers and triggers as well as set Print data for Serial Printers. It is provided by Texmate free of charge and runs on Microsoft Windows 2000, XP, Vista or Mac OS X 10.4+ (Intel only) (Universal Binary v3.3.0.2 - 4.0.0.4). Note: The updater package (texmate_viewer_update_*.exe) updates from prior versions of the Data Viewer to the latest version on Windows only.

The Texmate Data Server is a server application that facilitates the communication of data between two or more Texmate Tiger controllers as well as remote logging of data from any number of Texmate Tiger controllers. The server uses TCP/IP for communication and therefore Tiger Controllers can be in remote locations; for example at a construction site using a wireless modem (WiFi, Celluar) to connect to the internet or a TCP/IP network to communicate with the server. A unit(s) leaves some data with the server, while another unit(s) located somewhere else can retrieve that data from the server and act upon it. The data is also logged on the server, and the server has an http interface for graphing and statistical analysis, as well as for exporting to csv files for further analysis in your favourite spreadsheet program. You can view a demo of the Client HTTP Interface here: http://www.texmate.com:8080/ The server is fast enough to handle many concurrent Tiger Meter Controllers. Sample Macros are available on our website for download to help you get started with your Tiger Meter Controllers. Texmate Data Server is provided by Texmate free of charge and runs on Microsoft Windows 2000, or XP. For Mac OS X or Linux server versions, please contact us directly.

The Texmate Meter Viewer is an easy to use package for viewing and logging information from multiple Texmate Tiger Programmable Meter Controllers. It connects to your controllers through a serial (RS232/485) line and/or Ethernet (TCP/IP) connections speaking Texmate ASCII and/or ModBus, and reads whatever Registers you tell it to. It can then log the data to a csv file for further analysis in a spreadsheet, or for importing into the Texmate Data Viewer program for graphing. It is provided by Texmate free of charge and runs on Microsoft Windows XP, Vista, 7, or Mac OS X (Intel) 10.4, 10.5, and 10.6.

This utility program is used to setup and configure older Tiger 320 Series Programmable Meter Controllers, up to version 3.05C. This program will run on the Windows 98, Windows 2000, and Windows XP operating systems.
