Calca vs ModTest Pro

Calca is a powerful symbolic calculator that gives you instant answers as you type. It solves equations and simplifies complex expressions - it's a computer algebra system in your pocket! It's also a rich Markdown text editor so that you can explain your ideas alongside your calculations. Calca is perfect for professionals and students - anyone who works with numbers and equations. Variables and functions can be created with only a few keystrokes and can be manipulated with a rich library of operators and functions. Calca updates as you type - just like a spreadsheet. You can declare variables, edit their values and watch everything update before your eyes. Since everything is calculated on the device - no network needed - you get answers instantaneously. All calculations are stored as plain text so you can easily share them with other editors and move them from device to device. Calca has been designed to work with iCloud documents so all your devices can access your calculations - you'll always have the latest files ready for viewing and editing. Calca comes with a suite of examples to help you get started covering topics from home mortgages to kinetics. All these examples are fully explained within Calca itself. Are you still using a desktop calculator? Are you using the calculator with the giant buttons that came with your OS? Computers are much more capable than doing simple one-line arithmetic - put your machine to work with Calca! Calculation Features: • Variables `x = 42` • Functions `f(c) = 9/5*c + 32` and even recursive functions • Units `42 mph in kmph` and currency `¥599 in $` • Solves equations (`x + 2x + 4x = 42`, what is x?) • Matrices with inverses so you can solve linear equations • Sum, prod, map, and reduce operations on lists, matrices, and ranges • Trigonometry and complex numbers • Derivatives of functions • Logic operations and if statements • Binary math (& and |) and support for binary and hex number (`0xA9` and `0b1010`) • Keeps track of units (m, s, m/s, m/s^2, etc.) so you can verify your equations as you compute Please visit http://calca.io to see lots of examples. Thank you for looking!

MODTest Pro is a fast and simple utility for testing MODBUS devices over WiFi or Bluetooth. It supports a wide range of MODBUS functionality, including the ability to operate as a client or server (master or slave). It supports both TCP and UDP connections when using WiFi and it supports serial communication via many BLE modules equipped with Bluetooth 4 or higher that provide UART bridging capability. Tap the Setup button to enter the appropriate parameters for your device. Return to the main display to send your poll and view the data (when in client mode) or accept and respond to data requests from a master device (when in server mode). The Comm Setup view allows a number of addressing, timing, and communication mode parameters to be configured. Besides a comprehensive user guide, the app also has extensive built-in help. Tap on any yellow label or info button for a description of that parameter. The app supports MODBUS-TCP, -RTU, and -ASCII protocols, and they can all be transmitted via TCP, UDP, or Bluetooth. It also supports the GSI protocol which was developed in 1985 and was the first tank gauging protocol to use standard RS232/RS485 serial data communication. The app also features a User Data Mode that allows you to enter a complete poll string independent of any particular protocol. This allows transmission of special ASCII data polls or any MODBUS command that is not natively supported by the app. The following MODBUS function codes are supported: 1 – Read Coils 2 – Read Discrete Inputs 3 – Read Holding Registers 4 – Read Input Registers 5 – Write Single Coil 6 – Write Single Register 7 – Read Exception Status 15 – Write Multiple Coils 16 – Write Multiple Registers 17 – Report Server ID Addresses must be entered in standard MODBUS format (0-65535). If you are accustomed to specifying register addresses in "Modicon format", simply subtract 1 from the Modicon Address and delete the prefix number. For example, Modicon Holding Register 40101 is equivalent to MODBUS address 100. The app supports a wide range of data representations including: Unsigned Integer: 16 bit, 32 bit, and 64 bit Signed Integer: 16 bit, 32 bit, and 64 bit Floating Point: 32-bit, and 64-bit using IEEE-754 specifications Hex Data Strings: 16-bit, 32 bit, and 64-bit Bit and Byte Representations for Coils & Discrete Inputs The app also supports the following "reverse modes" of floating point data storage: Atomic 8-bit Little Endian Atomic 16-bit Little Endian PDP Endian Bit Reversal When you exit the Comm Setup page, WiFi connections will be established automatically; however, a manual scan must be initiated to find and select a BLE module within range in order to establish a Bluetooth connection. After a successful Wifi or BLE connection, simply tap the Start Poll button to send your poll command (when in client mode). Continuous polling is also supported. When in server mode, the app will wait for and respond to poll requests from a master device once a WiFi or BLE connection is made. The app scans for UART Service & TX/RX Characteristic UUIDs from BLE devices by a number of manufacturers. The UUIDs that are supported are detailed in the app User Guide. A communication status window will show the raw byte strings that are sent to and received from a remote device. Received data will also be shown in tabular form when in client mode and communication events will be shown when in server mode. The app also tracks a number of communication statistics. When using WiFi your device must be on the network as the device that you want to test. Be sure to use the Settings app to configure your network settings before using the app or you will surely get socket connection errors. The app contains no ads or in-app purchases and we will never nag you for reviews, although we do appreciate them. If you have any issues with the app, please send us a message before posting a negative review and give us a chance to address your concerns.
