The Unified Communications and CTI solution from ESTOS now supports Kuando Busylight UC as a way to make offices more productive

Starnberg near Munich (Germany), 05th of December 2012 – Based on technical cooperation between ESTOS, the independent Unified Communications (UC) software vendor from Starnberg in Germany and Plenom, a specialized vendor of intelligent office equipment in Denmark, both parties have just made their solutions interoperable. In combination with Kuando Busylight UC from Plenom, the latest version of ProCall Enterprise now provides additional presence status signals on Microsoft Windows-based desktop PCs. When you are listening to a phone call or focusing on an important project, you do not want to be interrupted, because returning your concentration to your original tasks after an interruption will take at least five minutes. To solve this problem, the independent Unified Communications (UC) software vendor ESTOS has implemented plug”n”play interoperability between the latest version of ProCall Enterprise and Kuando Busylight UC. This way everyone in an office can see, whether the desired colleague is available for a conversation, busy on the phone, or simply does not want to be disturbed.

Misunderstandings can easily arise from the increased use of headsets in office environments, because it may not be obvious at first glance, if the desired contact person is busy on the phone and therefore doesn”t want to be disturbed. Today, Unified Communications software running on a desktop or a mobile phone typically provides presence information, which shows a person”s various presence states, such as: available, busy, do not disturb, offline. For the first time, Kuando Busylight UC uses the presence information from the ESTOS ProCall Enterprise Unified Communications software to display precisely this information via a multicolored LED. Thus, colleagues will be informed immediately about whether a person is busy on the phone or available for a conversation.

Kuando Busylight UC is a Windows-applicable USB device, which can be automatically detected by ProCall Enterprise and which integrates the appropriate ProCall presence status information. Busylight is a specially designed LED light, which can be mounted on any PC monitor. This powerful LED light will adjust its color scheme to match the ProCall Enterprise presence state engine and show the current ProCall status.

ESTOS is one of the first Unified Communications & CTI software vendors worldwide to be able to provide plug”n”play support for the Kuando Busylight UC device and underlines with this integration the companies leading role in the market of UC and CTI solutions for small and medium enterprises.

The combination of both products is available from ALLNET, Germany”s leading UC distributor located in Germering near Munich, Germany. During the initial launch period, ALLNET is offering limited solution packages at special pricing.

Since 1997, ESTOS GmbH has been developing innovative standard software and today is a leading supplier of Unified Communications products with more than one million licenses sold. CTI and SIP-based solutions are used for the optimization of the workflow in communication-intensive departments for small and medium-sized companies. Today numerous strategic technology partners and resellers in Europe, benefit from ESTOS” know-how. The independent software vendor is based in Starnberg, Germany, near Munich and has a branch office in Udine, Italy as well as in Doetinchem near Arnhem, Netherlands.

The Microsoft Customer Questionnaire for re-profiling ESTOS as a Gold Competency Partner confirms the above-average, high quality of the software and the satisfaction of reference customers.

Starnberg, Germany, 12/04/2012 – ESTOS, an independent Unified Communications software vendor from Starnberg, Germany, has qualified for the highest achievable partner status offered by Microsoft. With this status, the company has once again earned the Microsoft Gold Software Development competency for information worker solutions with a specialization in the field of Unified Communications. This certification confirms the high quality of ESTOS software after a comprehensive and demanding, technical examination. As part of the examination, several of ESTOS” reference customers had to evaluate the ESTOS company with regard to technological consulting skills, security and software stability, as well as the knowledge of the ESTOS team. In these evaluations, ESTOS achieved positive results well above average.

Only those companies, which can guarantee an ideal of technical expertise and secure, stable software products in the Microsoft environment, are awarded the highest status in the Microsoft Partner Program, the Gold Competency status. Karin Budde, the Team Manager of the Microsoft Partner Network, says: “Of approximately 38,500 Microsoft partners in Germany, only about one percent fulfill our strict criteria. In order to earn the Gold Competency status, the partner”s software solution must be appropriate for the highest level of technical demands. The partner must train and certify selected employees in areas of technology licensing sales know-how, must present a sufficient number of customer references and must have completed a customer satisfaction survey successfully.” To accomplish this, questionnaires, which have been commissioned by Microsoft and objectively designed by an independent marketing research service, ensure absolute customer satisfaction. The results prove that both decision makers and users have been convinced through their use of the products from the Unified Communications software vendor, ESTOS, of the improvement of communications and collaboration, both within and between companies, and of the ESTOS team”s technical knowledge and high level of dedication for their customers.

Furthermore, the successfully completed, technical validation of the ProCall Enterprise Unified Communications solution by an independent institute was crucial for achieving the Microsoft Gold Partner status. This solution from ESTOS has been awarded the highest classification for the “Certified for Windows Server 2008 R2″ generation of Microsoft servers. Over the course of this validation process, the ESTOS best seller was subjected to over 100 individual tests as part of the comprehensive testing procedure, which confirmed that the software conforms to the highest standards worldwide in the view of the telecommunications and information technology world.

ProCall Enterprise is a Unified Communications solution for small- and medium-sized companies, which provides features like classic CTI, instant messaging and presence management for the improvement of collaboration within the company and, by the new technological concept of Federation, with associated organizations extending beyond prior corporate boundaries as well. The most recent version of ProCall 4+ Enterprise has distinguished itself through innovative features in the fields of mobility (native apps for iOS and Android), collaboration (group journals and simplified desktop sharing) as well as federation. In addition to the SIP/SIMPLE open standard, ProCall Enterprise also supports the XMPP protocol for federation, so that the integration of platforms from manufacturers such as Microsoft (Lync), Cisco (Jabber) and Google (Talk) is possible and presence information and instant messages can be securely exchanged between companies.

Since 1997, ESTOS GmbH has been developing innovative standard software and today is a leading supplier of Unified Communications products with more than one million licenses sold. CTI and SIP-based solutions are used for the optimization of the workflow in communication-intensive departments for small and medium-sized companies.

BoilerSpection-IM utilizes a special mid-wave infrared detector to provide the most clear and stable through-flame images

LumaSenseInc.com: Mobile IR Camera System for Boiler Tube and Furnace Inspection (BoilerSpection-IM)

Santa Clara, California, November 19, 2012 – LumaSense Technologies, Inc. released the BoilerSpection-IM, an easy-to-use mobile infrared camera system for clear inspection of boiler tubes and furnace walls ( http://lumasenseinc.com/EN/products/thermal-imaging-systems/boilerspection/boilerspection-im/ ). This solution is the most recent addition to the LumaSpection thermal imaging product family. With its high-quality video this new mobile IR camera system helps plant operators safely, quickly, and accurately identify process abnormalities before they grow into problems that can lead to unplanned outages.

“BoilerSpection-IM is designed specifically to be a critical tool to analyze and verify the effects of process and equipment changes,” says Lenny Shaver, Director of Solutions and Software for LumaSense Technologies. “The system helps plant operators identify tube leaks, guide cleaning processes, and tune the combustion.”

The LumaSense solution utilizes a 3.9-µm (micrometre) infrared wavelength and unique filtering to safely see through combustion flames and clearly image the interior of coal fired boilers. This new addition to the LumaSpection product family includes a BoilerSpection-IM camera with a choice of an 18″ or 24″ lens for optimal matching of the solution to an operator’s specific plant needs. Available accessories include wireless displays with digital recording and a comfortable battery backpack.

This BoilerSpection-IM thermal imaging system provides the following features: detection of pinpoint issues before they grow into problems (shorter life cycles and unplanned outages), inspect buildup of ash and slag, tune combustion and manage fuel switching, safe monitoring at full load, one person operation, industry leading image quality, wireless digital video recording (DVR), robust optics (without cooling for most inspections). Typical applications of the mobile infrared camera system for boiler tube and furnace inspection are inspecting for slag and clinkers on superheat pendants in e. g. power boiler burning PRB coal, characterizing shape and length of burner fuel mixing and imaging coal stream from wall fired burner. Operators can survey the furnace to identify tube leaks, guide cleaning maneuvers, and tune the combustion. BoilerSpection-IM is also a critical tool to analyze and verify the effects of process and equipment changes.

BoilerSpection-IM is thus a comprehensive solution including all the components required for a user to be recording images in only minutes with wireless digital video recording.

Piece counting scales are made for the surveillance of weight requirements of goods. No matter if you weigh in the process of production or at home after the purchase. Depending on the application, all scales are counting scales.

Analytical Scales PCE-LS Series

Piece counting scales are made for the surveillance of weight requirements of goods. No matter if you weigh in the process of production or at home after the purchase. Depending on the application, all scales are counting scales.
PCE Instruments UK Ltd has optimized and broadened its product range of weighing instruments. There are different kinds of counting scales. The Precision Scale PCE-LS Series piece counting scale is a calibrated counting scale of the upper class. Kitchen scales can control the weight of baking ingredients as well as a filling station for food. Concerning the principle of weighing, these two scales do not really differ from each other, but the scale in a filling station needs to be constructed completely different from a kitchen scale, because the ambient conditions are completely different. The weight of products or people plays a major role in our society, because the accounting works to the principle of the actual weight. As for example at our post offices, the heavier a packet or a letter is, the more expensive it is to send. At the weekly market, all the fruit and vegetables are weighed before they leave the stall. Further possible applications of counting scales are scales which accompany single stages of production. Counting scales are to be found in almost every application area. There are, for example, counting scales in put away applications, counting scales for mixture ratio or counting scales which control the completeness of end products in order to reduce the return rate.
Calibrated and non-calibrated counting scales which are affordable and designed for the most different applications are available at PCE Instruments UK Ltd.

The new modern mini anemometer PCE MAM 1

The new modern mini anemometer PCE MAM 1 from PCE Instruments UK is a small, compact device ideal for mobile operation. The new Mini Anemometer PCE-MAM 1 measures winds and air currents.

Wind moves the wind wheel sensor and calculates the wind speed via the rotating speed of the sensor. The new compact and solid Mini-Anemometer PCE-MAM 1 is perfectly suited for oriented measurements regarding indoor and outdoor applications. For hobby to professional sailors, the mini-anemometer is a helpful device when it comes to wind speed and wind direction. Wherever wind speed needs to be controlled, PCE Instruments UK can offer a broad range of anemometers.
The portable and light-weight Mini-Anemometer PCE MAM 1 can take measurements permanently and quickly. The PCE-MAM 1
possesses a wind wheel which runs smoothly and reacts from even minimal flow velocities (draught). That is why the Mini-Anemometer PCE-MAM 1 is especially suited for schools and universities. With the help of mini-anemometers, students are able to gain experience quickly and simultaneously experience. The simple handling makes it possible to immediately test the Mini-Anemometers without difficulty.
But such Mini-Anemometers can also be of great help for hobby activities, such as flying kites. Knowing the wind speed in advance makes it easier to fly a kite. Determining the wind speed without requiring major effort at an affordable price, is no longer a problem thanks to the new Mini-Anemometer PCE-MAM 1 from PCE Instruments UK.
