Software Services
WHAT WE DO
ISC specialises in providing software solutions for industrial control, monitoring and data acquisition (DAQ) and signal processing applications. Our software engineering services include requirements specification/capture, design, implementation, testing and commissioning, documentation, and ongoing maintenance and support.
We adopt a structured yet pragmatic and flexible approach, guided by the practical commercial and engineering needs of our clients. This often sees us working closely with the clients in the early project stages to understand and capture the system needs and engaging the clients for reviews and feedback at defined points of the process. We often use simulation to aid design and testing early which is particularly useful when the actual instrumentation or production test line is unavailable.
Some of the specific areas we cover are:
- Test Automation Using NI Platform – providing automated or hybrid test solutions, as well as test rig upgrade.
- Bespoke Algorithm Development - for control, signal processing or data acquisition applications to meet the specific needs of your company, in LabVIEW, MATLAB, Python, C and Arduino.
- Real-time Software Development - in LabVIEW and to deploy on NI hardware (e.g. CompactRIO and FPGA, PXI, cDAQ, I/O modules), or in Arduino/C to deploy on microcontrollers such as Teensy boards.
- Training Simulator Development - for various purposes including operator training for routine and emergency handling procedures.
- Conversion of Models Between Development Environments - to enable model integration and reuse.
- Process Connectivity and Data Exchange - utilising industry-standard communication protocols such as OPC UA, Modbus, HTTP, TCP/IP, CAN, RS232/RS485, REST, and JSON.
- Control System Upgrades - legacy NI software / hardware update to latest versions.
- Development of Digital Twins.
Our engineers are proficient in a range of development environments/languages including LabVIEW, MATLAB, Python, and C.
ISC is an National Instruments Alliance Parnter.
