Features
Read full description

It is developed to access all the Denkovi IP relay modules and controllers via smartphone - DAEnetIP2, DAEnetIP3, DAEnetIP4, smartDEN. Access relays, lights, fans, water jets or monitor sensors for temperature, humidity, pressure simply with several clicks. It can be used in fileds like home automation, industrials, sensor monitoring, remote control, data acquisition, robotics and many others. FEATURES: * Access many devices with single application: Access one or many Denkovi IP devices via single Smart Phone. You have to select the model of your device(s) from the drop-down list and add it to the device list. Once the device name, IP, port and password are saved, it is possible easily to control & monitor these devices. DAE-iModules will remember these settings. * Control Digital Outputs: These outputs are oftenly used for relays. They can be turned ON or OFF at once or one by one. Refesh the states manually just with one click. You can give a name to each output line and this name will be saved on your smartphone. Additionaly if the particular Denkovi module support this, the names will be synchronized with the hardware device as well. * Analog Inputs: Manual or auto refresh of the analog inputs values. Each analog input can be named and scaled to show values in user frienfly units (temperature, humidity, pressure...) which is so called linearization. * Digital Inputs/Counters: Manual or auto refresh of the digital inputs values. Usually these inputs have two possible states - ON and OFF which are shown in the application with different colors. Additionally some modules support counters for the digital inputs which will be also shown on the same screen. * Analog Outputs: This tab is for devices which support Analog Outputs (PWM). The sliders can be easily used for dimming lights for instance in your home. * Tab "Other" inputs: Here you can access spceific inputs for temperature, humidity, voltage, current and so on. Some of the devices support such special inputs where the input values are obtained in such units and the DAE-iModules app show them in this tab. * Show/Hide I/O: Very often not all the I/O lines are used. The application offers the capability hide unused I/O buttons or showings which can be easily bringed back with several clicks after that. DAE-iModules app is suitable for controlling and monitoring all Denkovi IP devices which can be found on this link: http://denkovi.com/ In order to use the application, the Denkovi IP device MAC address must start with E8:EA:DA.

Petal Layout is a professional fabrication calculator for developing petal-type layouts for spheres and hemispherical heads. It is designed for pressure vessel fabrication, process equipment manufacturing, spherical tank fabrication, and industrial sheet metal work. The app generates fabrication-ready layout dimensions that can be used for marking plates or sheet metal before cutting, forming, and assembling spherical or hemispherical components. Whether you are a fabrication engineer, fitter, workshop technician, production engineer, or pressure vessel professional, Petal Layout helps simplify complex petal development calculations and improves accuracy during fabrication. Supported Petal Layouts • Hemispherical Head / Hemi Head • Hemispherical Dish End • Sphere / Spherical Tank Hemispherical Head Petal Layout Generate petal development dimensions for hemispherical pressure vessel heads and dish ends. Enter the required head diameter and straight face length, select the desired number of development divisions, and calculate the layout dimensions required for plate marking. Sphere Petal Layout Generate petal-type development dimensions for spherical tanks and spherical shells. Enter the sphere diameter and select the required number of divisions to generate the layout dimensions for fabrication. Development Options Choose from predefined development divisions: • 12 Parts • 24 Parts • 36 Parts • 48 Parts You can also enter a custom number of development divisions according to your fabrication requirements. Features • Sphere petal layout development • Hemispherical head petal development • Dish end petal layout • Spherical tank layout calculations • Multiple development division options • Custom development line/part count • Fabrication-ready marking dimensions • Clear and easy-to-understand results • Simple professional interface • Metric and Imperial unit support • No internet connection required Fabrication Applications Petal Layout is useful for: • Pressure Vessel Fabrication • Spherical Tank Fabrication • Process Equipment Fabrication • Storage Tank Manufacturing • Dish End Fabrication • Hemispherical Head Fabrication • Sheet Metal Fabrication • Industrial Fabrication • Plate Layout and Marking Designed For • Fabrication Engineers • Fabrication Fitters • Production Engineers • Mechanical Engineers • Workshop Technicians • Pressure Vessel Fabricators • Tank Fabricators • Process Equipment Manufacturers • Fabrication Supervisors • Engineering Students For improved fabrication accuracy, the app can be used with appropriate mean dimensions when developing and marking petal layouts. Petal Layout provides a convenient solution for generating sphere and hemispherical head petal development dimensions, helping reduce manual calculations, save fabrication time, and improve accuracy during plate layout and marking.
