A system and software for controlling output devices used in association with
machinery
is disclosed. The system includes a control module which may be connected to a
personal digital assistant (PDA), personal pocket PC, personal computer, organizer,
cell phone, or other data storage device. The data storage device has programmed
within it particularized manufacturer information for various input devices and
output devices available on the market. The system allows an operator to select
a particular manufacturer, as well as product information, including product model
number and operating parameters. The machine can then be calibrated such that the
input device being used, as well as the output device manufacturer information,
is used to dynamically adjust, monitor or perform diagnostics on the machine. The
system allows for on-site calibration of the machine controllers. The invention
contemplates the use of any output device used with the operation of the machine
or any input device used to input information or operation instructions to the
machine. The software may be programmed into any personal electronic device or
may be connected to a driver or controller associated with the machine to be regulated.
