Assure Your Data Integrity
With its modular, component-based architecture, MCL-Collection provides communications servers to handle the communications requirements between your mobile computing and barcode printing applications and your host systems.

For your batch, serial communications, MCL-Link is the communications server that meets your needs. With support for direct connect or remote dial-up, MCL-Link handles the data communications for multiple users, sequentially, one user at a time.

Whether for route accounting, direct store delivery, physical inventory, retail returns, competitive price surveys, electronic ordering, dashboard sales product lookup, or field service applications, MCL-Link manages the communications for:

• Daily downloads, such as:
  • Mobile worker task lists
  • Lookup tables
  • Price lists
  • Images
  • Label formats
• Periodic downloads, such as:
  • Application updates
  • New applications
• Daily uploads of mobile worker collected data, such as:
  • Physical inventory
  • Sales orders
  • Purchase orders
  • Proofs of Delivery

The integrity of your batch uploads and downloads, and consequently the integrity of your business data is dependent upon successful data delivery.

How is this data integrity achieved?

The answer is MCL-Link.

Note: A reduced functionality version of MCL-Link, called MCL-Link Lite, is available for a few select devices.

• Guaranteed Data Delivery: Assure the integrity of your data. Sound business decisions require sound data
• Minimized Communications Traffic: Minimize data transfer time and related operating costs
• Remote Project Update: Minimize your total cost of ownership. Eliminate the costs related to the physical return of a device from the field for application update
• Serial Communications: Choose the communications method that suits your operations — continuously or occasionally connected communications over serial RS232, USB, PPP or modem remote dial-up
• Modular Architecture: Configure your deployment to use only the components you require for your operations. Start with batch today, move over to wireless tomorrow
