Advanced Diagnostic Tools (ADTs)

What are the Renishaw Advanced Diagnostic Tools (ADTs)?

The Advanced Diagnostic Tools, ADTa-100 and ADTi-100, acquire comprehensive real-time data from Renishaw's RESOLUTE™, EVOLUTE™ and FORTiS™ absolute encoders, and VIONiC™, QUANTiC™ and ATOM DX™ incremental encoders. This information is displayed via the user-friendly Renishaw ADT View software interface. Whilst in most cases the integral set-up LED on the encoder readhead is sufficient for setting up the system, the ADTs can be used to aid more challenging installations and also to report on encoder performance to assist in system fault finding to avoid lengthy machine downtime.

The ADTs can be connected to a Windows® tablet or a PC via a USB cable. The ADTi-100 can also be connected in-line between the readhead and the controller as part of the control loop.
