For high quality wire and cable identification as well as label printing applications, Tyco Electronics introduces an updated and improved version of its market-leading cable marker and label printing software called WinTotal. A range of new features (e.g. new simplified toolbar design, ‘system setup’ screen for fast print job selection, ‘database printing’ function, ‘print preview’ option) makes the new WinTotal v5 software a very powerful and user friendly software solution. It is an ideal tool for new customers looking for a marker and label printing software as well as users of an older WinTotal software version. WinTotal v5 software is pre-loaded with Tyco Electronics Identification product templates and in built printer drivers for Tyco Electronics identification printers, saving setup and installation time. A full on-screen ‘help’ function is also incorporated for assistance. A new advanced template design allows graphics, logos, bar codes, lines, rectangles and circles to be easily created. It also features a graphical user interface with WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) display, making the updated software very simple to use.
The latest features of the WinTotal v5 software include a new toolbar design which aids navigation and label setup using keypad buttons and zoom in/out functions. An innovative ‘system setup’ screen together with the new advanced printer setup function makes it very easy to pick and print the labels. All printer parameters are now selectable from the print screen, e.g. printer speed and head density. The new “auto numbering product” function enables print jobs with serialisations that update after printing. The latest ‘database printing’ function enables data to be printed without having to import it into the WinTotal software first. If external data sources need to be exported or imported, this can simply be done with a new file format, which allows importing and exporting of ‘user defined layouts’.
The WinTotal v5 software supports all current Tyco Electronics Identification products and printers. It can be used with Windows 2000, XP, Vista and Windows 7 (32bit and 64bit) operating systems and can be run on networked computers so that the design function can be separated from printing. Last but not least, the software can be used in several different languages (English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Norwegian and Dutch).
