Measurement routines are valuable data files. It is important that any changes are controlled and tracked in order to ensure repeatable and reliable metrology operations, and therefore consistently high quality products.

Protect uses the permissions given to PC-DMIS users to control access to measurement routines and track modifications to these ‘protected’ files. All changes are tracked and a report can be generated, making Protect ideal for any business that needs to meet specific industry standards or process controls.

Features & BenefitsPDF export of change log
Once changes have been made and recorded in the Protect log, the user can create and export a PDF file of the changes for auditing records or management reporting.
Critical information logged
Only a user with the correct access rights can make changes to a program. When a change is made, key information is recorded in the log including: the name of the user, the actual change made, the time and date of the change and a reason or comment for the change.
Simple control of Protect privileges
Only your identified and approved users can edit protected files. Any user without Protect privileges can open or run a protected file but will be unable to edit it. Users can be easily added or removed from the appropriate user group.
