PDF from a USB key keeps things cool
PDF’s value-proposition is exemplified by a USB key developed to monitor temperatures in shipping containers.
PDF's value-proposition is exemplified in a new USB key developed by DeltaTrak, a developer of cold chain management and temperature monitoring solutions.
DeltaTrak's new Mini PDF logger for temperature-sensitive shipments is a single-use temperature recorder with a built-in USB connector, eliminating the need for special reading devices.
When plugged into a PC or tablet the on-board software generates a PDF file from the device's log. It can even print directly to printers equipped with USB ports.
These plug-and-play features, combined with the use of PDF for the report itself, make it easy for receivers around the world to obtain critical information as soon as a shipment arrives, enabling them to make rapid and informed accept/reject decisions based on trip data.
According to Frederick Wu, President and CEO of DeltaTrak, The FlashLink Mini PDF In-Transit Logger is ideal for import/export operations. Receivers dont have to install software on their local PC and dont need to purchase additional equipment for downloading. No matter what country theyre located in, a trip report is at their fingertips in a matter of seconds."
