Making Software Projects happen
We transfer your ambitious plans and concepts to successful projects.
We are responsive and creative and are offering innovative approaches.
However we don't forget that there is a bottom-line for every project
and don't loose the commercial focus.
Consultancy
We assist customers with:
- Conceptual Design
- Software Specifications
- Communication Network Layout and Protocol Design
- Design and Code Reviews
- Technical Support & Advice
- Defect Tracking and Debugging
- Maintenance of legacy Systems
Control and Embedded System Expertise
Modern control systems whether embedded or industry PC based need to
be designed using a mixture of technology blocks to make them
competitive. We have been directly involved in:
- Chip-Level Programming
- Data Acquisition and Digital Filtering
- PID Control
- SCADA Integration
- HMI's and Graphical User Interfaces
- Fieldbus Connectivity
- Remote Control and Configuration
Coding on multiple Platforms
We specialise in cross-platform integration and have extensive coding
experience with:
- Windows 2000/XP
- QNX 6 and 4
- Linux
- Java
- 8051 family Microcontroller
- PIC Microcontroller
Fieldbuses and Distributed Systems
We understand the most common Fieldbus technologies from the physical
layer upwards. We analysed most protocols and dealt with them in
mission critical applications. We have engineered software solutions
using the following Fieldbuses and Industrial Networks:
- CAN
- DeviceNet
- Modbus
- TCP/IP
- Industrial Ethernet
Special Areas
We successfully developed:
- Linux kernel modules
- QNX 6 resource managers
- Windows XP device drivers
- Device drivers and communication protocols for various platforms
- DeviceNet slave nodes using IXXAT's DNS stack and provided
electronic data sheets (EDS) to allow configuration with
RSNetWorx

Summary in our Business Profile.
The FOCUS Philosophy
- We make Things happen. We track down problems, solve them, and
deliver complete and finished solutions and don't leave open
ends behind us.
- In dealing with our clients, we commit ourselves and think
long-term. We are working on the basis of a continuing
business relationship.
- We prefer open technologies and open standards. These tend to
sustain longer on the market and will contribute to the
long-term success of your project.
- We stand behind the quality and robustness of our software
solutions. Therefore, we can offer very cost-effective after
sales support.
Your Advantage
- Achieve your goals with a reliable partner
- Flexible arrangements which suit your needs
- Complement your development team with external resources as required.
- In most cases, we can provide our own development tools.
- On-site and/or off-site work
- Jobs are charged on an hours spent basis and invoiced monthly or
as fixed price depending on the scope of work.
