Daily QA3™ Wireless Option |
|
|
|
|
The new Daily QA3 will have an available wireless option which will
transmit the Daily QA3 measured data in real time for viewing on a PC. The
wireless solution will be an option, and guarantees the same high level
of real-time access to the full measured data as the standard wired Daily QA3. Additionally, Daily QA3 wireless systems may be used with the standard
single power/data cable at any time if desired for maximum flexibility.
Sun Nuclear offered the first available wireless QA product in 2000 with the
original rf-IVD™. The Daily QA3, when introduced in Summer of 2006, will
be the most advanced Daily QA3 system available offering new tests and
ease of use never before merged into a single product.
