New developments on interfacing RS 232
instruments
Wireless interface connector allows laboratories to take their computers out of the fume cupboard, wetlab or dusty environment and place them in a clean area
Over the last years, instrument interfacing concentrated on instruments producing large amounts of data like ICPs, CDS, and flow analysers The return on investment for interfacing is often calculated based on an increase of quality and time savings on retyping of results

Powerful interfacing of instruments to LIMS
NuGenesis Technologies and Labcon are introducing a new integration strategy for interfacing laboratory instruments to LIMS, based on the NuGenesis SDMS and Labcon's NuConnect
As complex instruments do produce more results, more retyping is involved.
RS 232 instruments suffer from the high fixed cost of interfacing The fact that almost all simple instruments require an individual PC, eating expensive bench space is the next reason for the lack of interfacing these type of instruments.
Labcon Engineering's Wireless Interface Connector, WIC, allows the laboratory to connect their serial instruments to a low cost computer for an affordable price.
Distance might be as far as 100 metres.
Labcon's WIC allows laboratories to take their computers out of the fume cupboard, wetlab or dusty environment and place them in a more clean area.
