Remote Pipeline®

Scalability

Remote Pipeline® is scalable to handle multiple remote systems, so you can run MET/CAL, 5500/CAL, MET/TRACK, Barcode Magician®, or PROCESS/TRACK® at more than one remote site. You simply create additional remote systems. A Remote system can only go down one level from the Master Database. You cannot have a remote database replicating to another remote database. Remote Pipeline® allows calibration labs to operate multiple workstations in remote locations using the same database at every site.

With Remote Pipline®:

All data contained in the master system is synchronized with the remote system. Both systems contain an exact copy of all information — every asset, calibration, location, and repair record is available to both workstations.

• The remote system can be deployed anywhere calibrations need to be performed. There is no need to maintain a continuous connection to the home system. Lab supervisors/technicians can update asset records, calibrate instruments, perform repair and maintenance actions; in other words use the remote system just as they would use a workstation connected to the main system. DBSETUP is disabled on the Remote Database.
• The master server automatically replicates with and initializes the remote system for more remote work when you are able to connect to the master system via networking. There are no disks to handle and you can backup your remote system while deployed without having to worry about log files. NOTE: The system administrator should always backup the master database.
• Once the replication has been performed, instrument data changes and additions that have been made at the remote system are available at the consolidated system and vice versa. Deletions on the Remote Database are not replicated to the Master Database. As long as the periodic replication process is maintained, Remote Pipeline® keeps both systems up to date automatically.
