The Device Patented Process Indicating Apparatus

***

The only process indicating apparatus you'll ever need!

***

The Device Patented Process Indicating Apparatus features two analog dials, a test tube that glows from dim to bright, and a red incandescent lamp. Each feature can be controlled independently, and conveys whatever information you assign to it. Please read below for a better understanding of each of The Device's features and requirements.

Configuration and Control Software

  • Simple yet powerful software provides options monitoring many different data sources (click screenshot opposite for a larger view).
  • Plug-in architecture allows for frequent updates and new features. Users with minimal programming experience can easily write their own plugins to monitor whatever they wish.
  • Minimum System Specifications:
    • PC running Microsoft Windows 2000 operating system or higher (Mac OSX and Linux support coming soon)
    • At least one available USB port (USB 1.0 or 2.0 supported)

Analog Dials

  • Two Analog Dials can be configured independently or in tandem.
  • 8 Bit granularity provides 256 possible values for smooth movement and precise readings.
  • Inscrutable markings add to The Device's general.... inscrutability

Ethereal Glowing Tube

  • Tube g lows at five preset intensities for generalized monitoring. Appropriate whenever a vague awareness will suffice (for instance watching available system memory dwindle, or keeping tabs on the national security threat level).
  • Filled with an Agar-based gel, the same substance used in biotech research as a ph neutral growth medium. It gives the appearance of being a liquid, but with no danger of spills or leaks.
  • All natural cork stopper and hand-crafted mounting bracket

Red Incandescent Lamp

  • Simple on/off indicator glows with a warm, reassuring (or perhaps distressing) light.
  • Can be made to blink in extreme circumstances. This is appropriate when, for instance, your web server has gone down, or when you need to reload in your videogame.

Housing

  • Made of fine, handcrafted cherry wood, with a brass inlay and a lacquered finish.
  • Measures 14" wide, 8" tall, and 6" deep.
  • Green felt on the base protects The Device and your desk from each other.
  • A 3' cloth sheathed USB cable provides PC connectivity. USB extension cables are available at an additional cost.
