IDX successfully hosts its first Anybus breakfast

9 September 2010

IDX recently hosted our first breakfast targeted at the upcoming range of Anybus products available as well as some of the current products that are offered by HMS.

Kristina Johansson (Area Sales Manager) and Henrik Arleving (NetBiter Product Manager) from HMS (in Sweden) spent a week with us and enjoyed the good and the bad of South Africa (the only bad were taxis). It was with the greatest of pleasure for us to have them and enjoy their stories about Sweden(and there were a lot of them) which they are very proud of!

Probably the most popular topic, of the breakfast, was the remote communication interface devices. The NetBiter module allows you to read analogues/digitals or even Modbus messages into the unit and the information is sent via a GSM/GPRS modem to the server where the information is stored and can be displayed using a very user-friendly web interface.

We would like to thank everyone for their support and we look forward to more of these events in the future.
