FOBA DataMaster

Intelligent data distribution software: Easy to use and set up.

Clear and intuitive.
DataMaster is an intelligent program for the balanced distribution of data – such as various codes – from source files to up to
eight FOBA laser marking systems. The software is perfect for applications where large amounts of highly sensitive data are
to be distributed synchronously. DataMaster is especially suited for applications requiring data security and demanding ulti-
mate operator ease-of-use. DataMaster is a real graphical user interface program; it helps users to reduce code errors and
waste, and increases uptime while quickly marking products and parts with the requested contents.

Your product benefits

→  Clear and intuitive: The DataMaster display was created
with the operator in mind. The cell-based screen layout
provides for utmost clarity, is easy to follow and intui-
tively guides the user with a limited set of icons, sensible
text and color codes.
→  Cutting-edge screen concept for utmost clarity: The entire
UI is always visible, including status of all connected la-
sers, campaigns, users, settings and performance. By
clicking into a cell, the UI changes by enlarging the active
cell and compressing all other cells. Intuitive navigation.
→  1-2-3: Logging and excluding: DataMaster comes with an
extensive logging feature that enables tracking of actions
related to campaigns (setup, start/stop marking), data im-
port and printed codes. The software is capable of intelli-
gently distinguishing between general data and “special”
winning data, and provides a visual code safety feature. If
codes have been used once, their respective data file is
grayed out in the display. Thus, they are excluded from
being marked a second time. Users can also create special
exclusion lists for data being excluded for marking.
