Silent Hawk Products Overview
  • If hard copy outputs are required alongside of data capture, Silent Hawk I, XE or YE units are recommended to meet this need.
  • If hard copy outputs are not necessary, Silent Hawk II, SE, or TE units are the best choice as a solution.
  • If being able to choose whether or not physical paper output is generated, Silent Hawk I, XE, or YE units with a Null Printer and A/B Switch Kit should be purchased and implemented.
  • For simple and automated file segmentation, purchase a Silent Hawk XE, SE, YE, or TE unit or a Silent Hawk I or II with the AFS Option.
  • For IEEE-1284 analysis, select a Silent Hawk III.
  • If 1284.4 or MLC protocol analysis is necessary, a Silent Hawk III with the IEEE-1284 Decoder Analyzer Option should be implemented.
  • To replace an existing printer with a printer that will not generate paper output use a Silent Hawk C-100 Null Printer or Silent Hawk Null Printer Lite.
Software Overview
  • If the capture data needs to have non-printable characters or escape codes removed from it, the Control Console with the Real Time Display Option is capable of manipulating and deleting these characters from the capture data.
  • For distinct file segmentation needs based off different reports or print jobs the Unique Document Segmentation Option fulfills this requirement.
  • To view file data in real-time from any location, the Remote Viewer is a suitable solution.
  • Using the Silent Hawk Network Monitor Application you can be constantly informed about the status of Silent Hawk Products installed on any given site.
  • Custom middle ware applications process your data as it is captured in real-time. JADTech middle ware supports XML, JPG, BMP, and PDF file outputs.  Other output formats may be implementable in custom middle ware applications.  Call and ask for details.

Kit Overview
  • If selecting whether or not a hard copy output is generated for reports and data, an A/B Switch Kit with a Null Printer should be implemented.
  • To capture data sent via Ethernet to a printer, choose a Print Server Kit to use with your Silent Hawk Data Capture Unit.
  • Data acquisition from serial interfaces with a Silent Hawk Data Capture Unit is possible with the purchase and implementation of a Serial-to-Parallel Conversion Kit.
