INTRODUCING . . . SENTINEL Print Pack S/3
The Most Powerful Middleware Solution in the Industry.
SENTINEL Print Pack S/3 is a professional software tool designed to connect data from a host system to print bar code labels. SENTINEL Print Pack S/3 now allows almost any data stream to be mapped via the Mapper virtually eliminating the need to change the data stream from the host. Simply print a standard form or report from the host and use it as input into S/3. No programming required.
Because SENTINEL Print Pack S/3 runs only on a Windows NT server or Windows 2000 server as a multi-threaded application it can handle hundreds of requests printing to hundreds of printers. It has the power to handle true enterprise label printing and is designed to work hand-in-hand with ERP, WMS, or MRP systems. | |
SENTINEL Print Pack S/3 uses the CODESOFT print engine currently supporting over 1,000 printer device types in addition to Windows drivers for supporting Laser, Dot Matrix and other office type printers. Each of the printer drivers developed for CODESOFT was done so in close collaboration with the printer manufacturers to take advantage of todays thermal transfer printer technologies as well as emerging technologies.
WHAT'S DIFFERENT FROM SENTINEL Print Pack S/2?
THE MAPPER
 S/2 had a very flexible option called RDI (Raw Data Interface), which allowed some flexibility in file types S/2 could support. S/3 has taken that concept much further with the Mapper.
 Each Sentinel (We call each watch that is setup a sentinel) references a MAP file, created with the help of the wizard based Mapper, that defines the data to be analyzed.
MODULARITY
S/3 now has modules that support different aspects of operation and setup:
 Mapper – A module for setting up how to analyze a data stream
 Controller – A module for the IT Manager, it provides control and views of the Sentinel activity.
 Manager – A module for creating, configuring and managing Sentinels.
 Kernel – The core component that runs in protected memory controlling all aspects of data flowing through the system.
DESIGN AND TEST TOOLS
 Users and integrators have asked for more tools when designing Sentinel configurations.
 S/3 includes advanced testing tools from within the Mapper that allow you not only test the results of the data file that is open at any one time but also test a whole batch of files to see if the data file is mapped correctly.
DIRECT HOOKS INTO HOST APPLICATIONS
 SENTINEL S/3 can comes with maps to connect directly to Oracle’s WMS (via XML) with more to follow soon including SAP, and others.
