Magic Square Light of Victory: Upstaged and outclassed, but still fun

Magic Square Light of Peace has been renowned as the premier Third Party Masterpiece Optimus Prime for some time now, and for good reason. He offers a high range of articulation and expression, with an intricate but not overly complicated transformation, all at a much more reasonable price point than some other official offerings. There’s also what feels like a half dozen different versions, so you’ve got plenty to pick from to fit your exact needs. With MS capitalizing on his success with MP upscales of their Combaticons, let’s take a look at where all of this started with the original Legends scale take on the design, Light of Victory.

Visually it’s… it’s another G1 Optimus Prime. It’s another G1 cartoon 1984 Optimus Prime. It’s the umpteenth really good looking cartoon accurate generation one Autobot Leader Optimus Prime. I think we’ve all accepted that they’ll be making this guy until the fucking sun implodes, but it can’t be ignored either. I was fiddling with him at my desk, looked over at my shelves, and realized I’ve got three of him in one little cubby. In my defense, however, this is also Skybound Optimus. Kind of. DWJ directly based his drawings of the big guy on MS Light of Peace, who is an upscale of this little version of the big guy. And, AND, this isn’t even the cartoon deco of the figure, so ha.

Light of Victory is about what you’d expect from a 3P Legends scale figure in terms of articulation, with the only real issue being the thigh swivels. The actual mushroom peg that allows it to swivel is very close to the hip assembly, and it’s covered from the front and outside by the rest of the leg. While this means there’s no cut or break in the sculpt, it’s right up against his crotch, meaning there isn’t much clearance for turning it inward unless you bring the leg out to the side. The result is that it looks very visually cohesive, but you are presented with a few issues when trying to get him into more dynamic poses. Other figures have used this type of thigh joint, (even my last review had it!) but it feels a bit extreme here. He has a few other minor gripes like the elbow “only” being 90°, but it’s not a huge deal and gets balanced out by things like his double jointed knees.

Inversely, I don’t much care for how his hands look. They swivel just fine, being mounted on a ball joint that lets you easily swap one out for his energon axe, but the MS signature of “permanent trigger finger” rarely looks natural and sticks out in the majority of poses, and not in a good way. It feels like they want more dynamic open hands à la NewAge, but they didn’t want to make a separate part or lose out on the ability to hold weapons with the standard closed fists. It comes off as an awkward middle ground that satisfies neither niche. Or, at the very least, I don’t like them here on Optimus. I was indifferent towards them on the likes of DX9 Mini Michael Murphy, but they feel much more strange and stilted here. He’s not pointing at anything nor does he feel particularly convicted on any matter.

Quick side note: as far as I understand it the DX9 Mini line is technically like, just Magic Square? Or is at least associated with them. The whole third party world is wild and impossible to keep track of. There’s so much damn crossover and co-ownership and sub-companies and- ugh.

While on the subject of his hands, let’s go over his accessories, c-cause like he- he holds those with- We’ve already mentioned the axe, cast in a very pretty orange plastic, and of course he comes with the ever reliable ion blaster, and a matrix. It’s tucked away in his chest and I don’t think he can hold it. It does come out, but his hands are so rigid and the matrix is so thin I’m worried it’s going to break before he gets any sort of grip on it. I’m not trying it. All it really means in the end is that you’re liable, and likely, to pop it out on accident when transforming him.

The transformation is clever, if not a tad fiddly at this scale. There doesn’t feel like there’s enough room for you to get your fingers in and move things the way you need to, and that’s on top of some regular slight clearance issues. Space is a luxury. Light of Peace is probably more fun to handle for this reason, any quirks being worked out aside there’s just more toy for you to get your hands on. While I don’t have him myself, I can tell you that Victory here is almost the exact same when it comes to transformation. They really did just size it up, though they did use the extra space to add a few smaller touches and seemingly smooth out the experience.

The final truck mode does look nice, that all said. It’s Optimus, we’ve been over this no less than three separate times, but kudos for keeping the grill as the same part between modes. I know not every OP does it and I know some vehemently appreciate it when they do. Things do kind of fall apart when you go to the back, with the bed barely passing as such. It holds together mostly fine, once you have everything tabbed together it’s not going anywhere, but the top panels don’t sit flush and end up a bit squishy. Clearance is tight in his undercarriage, with his wheels just barely clearing his shins. I’m not sure how related it is but he doesn’t roll very freely. His wheels are pinned and the tires are… soft. Probably rubber but I can’t say for certain, but they don’t save things. The back wheels are very “sticky” and don’t want to move much, at least on my copy.

So what role does Light of Victory play in the endless world of Optimus Primes? Does… he need to fill one? While his transformation exists in a larger, easier to handle figure, and there’s other options for a small scale Prime, there’s nothing wrong with him being one of those options. I stand by the belief that we currently live in a golden age for transformers collecting, with both official and third party offering no shortage of high quality options to choose from. Where as before you might have had trouble simply finding a representation of a character, now you might have too many to choose from. Optimus has… never really had this problem, but maybe Victory will be the light at the end of your tunnel.

WASHINGTON—The Justice Department is preparing to take legal action against Live Nation Entertainment Inc. on allegations the company has sought to strong-arm concert venues into using its Ticketmaster subsidiary, according to people familiar with the matter.

The department believes the concert-promotion giant’s conduct has violated the merger settlement Live Nation and the dominant ticket seller reached with the government in 2010, the people said. Under that agreement, the department’s antitrust division allowed the companies to combine, but required them to abide by conditions designed to keep consumer prices in check by preserving competition in the music and ticketing industries.

As ticket prices have risen, critics have questioned whether the settlement has worked as intended. It is due to expire next year, but the Justice Department now plans to ask a judge to extend the restrictions by several years and prevent the alleged coercive conduct by Live Nation, the people said.

Live Nation’s chief executive has publicly denied that the company has violated its agreement. The company and the Justice Department have engaged in talks but haven’t settled their differences, people familiar with the matter said.

Details about the department’s specific concerns couldn’t immediately be learned.

The Live Nation-Ticketmaster merger consolidated two of the most powerful forces in the music industry. Ticketmaster holds an estimated 80% of its market, according to people in the concert industry. As the world’s largest concert promoter, Live Nation organizes live music events by booking talent, securing venues, setting ticket prices and marketing shows. It has also built a robust artist-management business.

The merger faced opposition at the time it was announced in 2009, and the decision by the Obama-era Justice Department to allow the deal with a settlement wasn’t well-received in some industry and consumer circles. Critics who say U.S. antitrust enforcement has been too lax often point to the merger as one where the government should have taken a harder line to protect consumers.

In the past decade, and particularly over the past few years, ticket prices have soared—increasing by nearly 50% since 2009 to $92.42 on average for the top 100 tours world-wide, according to Pollstar.

The settlement, known as a consent decree, forbid Live Nation from forcing venues that want to book the concert promoter’s tours to use Ticketmaster for those shows, and from retaliating when venues choose to use a ticketing competitor instead.

The deal also required Ticketmaster to license its technology to Anschutz Entertainment Group, the distant No. 2 concert promoter, to build a competitive ticketing platform. That ticketing service, AXS, has had limited success outside of AEG’s own venues.

Assistant Attorney General Makan Delrahim, the Justice Department’s antitrust chief, confirmed during a September Senate hearing that the department was investigating allegations that Live Nation had been violating the decree.

Typically, venues ranging from nightclubs and theaters to arenas and stadiums enter long-term contracts giving a ticketing provider the exclusive right to sell tickets to any event they host. Over the years, Live Nation’s competitors have accused it of using its market power as a concert promoter and artist manager to coerce venues into using Ticketmaster or risk losing out on lucrative bookings.

While in theory advances in new technology have made it easier for other ticketing companies to challenge Ticketmaster, in practice few venues have defected from their longstanding contracts with the giant, according to people in the industry. Almost 10 years since the decree was put in place, Ticketmaster has no serious competitor.

Live Nation previously dismissed the calls for investigation as based on a misunderstanding of the decree and ticketing-industry dynamics. Speaking at a conference in September, Live Nation Chief Executive Michael Rapino said the decree allows the company to make decisions that are “right for our business,” and that booking a Live Nation tour date at a venue that uses a ticketing provider other than Ticketmaster may not make economic sense for the company. He acknowledged that competitors have raised flags to the Justice Department, but said the company had never been found to engage in wrongdoing.

“We have no fear that we have any systematic issues. We’re very compliant,” he said.

The company has been facing fire from Congress as well as the Justice Department.

In August, Sens. Richard Blumenthal (D., Conn.) and Amy Klobuchar (D., Minn.) asked the Justice Department to investigate the state of competition in ticketing, focusing on the Live Nation-Ticketmaster merger.

“Live Nation’s dominance in the sector raises serious antitrust concerns. I’m glad that the Department of Justice is preparing to take action,” Ms. Klobuchar said Friday.

Earlier this month, four House lawmakers sent a letter to the department that expressed concerns about the merger, saying, “Our constituents are facing significantly increased live event prices and a lack of meaningful alternatives to purchase tickets to live events.”

The signatories were Reps. Ken Buck (R., Colo.), Matt Gaetz (R., Fla.), Lucy McBath (D., Ga.) and James Sensenbrenner (R., Wis.).

The Justice Department rarely has sued companies for alleged violations of antitrust consent decrees, but Mr. Delrahim has publicly voiced the need for companies to abide by their commitments. He has called for changes in decree language that would make it easier for the department to establish violations in court, and to force merged companies to pay the government’s costs in enforcing merger settlements.

The Live Nation decree has arisen recently in a second context with the Justice Department. The company has asked the department for permission to explore a transaction involving Rival, a ticketing company launched last year by former Ticketmaster CEO Nathan Hubbard, according to people familiar with the matter.

The decree requires Live Nation to give notice of any potential transactions with a ticketing company so the department can investigate the competitive effects of such a deal.

Mr. Hubbard led Ticketmaster for four years after the merger.

Mr. Hubbard, whose efforts attracted high-profile backers including top Silicon Valley venture-capital firm Andreessen Horowitz and Santa Monica, Calif.-based Upfront Ventures, envisioned that fully digitizing tickets could address inefficiencies in how live events operate and make them safer by connecting identity, payment and location data.

He built the aptly named Rival to be what he hoped would be a serious competitor in ticketing.

These video games provided the much needed distractions from everything else happening in the world, by enabling us to visit far away places filled with hours upon hours of entertainment, colorful, unique and intriguing characters …and most of all amazing music.

According to a report by Grand View Research, Inc., automobile aftermarket industry is evolving fast and is expected to reach more than $486 billion by 2025. It is found that the trend of customer intention to buy auto parts online, doubled, in a span of 3 years. In addition, according to Pixel Produtions, Inc., there are 70 million auto parts (aftermarket) searches every month on Google. While it is a lucrative proposition, after-sales market is tricky for many reasons. While everyone uses cars, most of them do not repair their own car. Although there is a slight growth in DIY enthusiasts, these numbers still amount to only a fraction. Most of the aftermarket parts are purchased by servicing stations in most markets around the world. Hence, the aftermarket sales are largely a B2B market. In this blog, we try to look at some key challenges of automobile aftermarket ecommerce and role of a partner in its success.

Key Challenges in Automobile Aftermarket Ecommerce

Inventory woes – There are numerous players in the industry across the world who produced various models, with a few of these models in production for more than a decade. To serve such an industry, the aftermarket industry handles a large variety of parts in different sizes. This can be an inventory management nightmare. Automobile aftermarket ecommerce players need serious solutions that handle these challenges.

Shipping is critical – Atleast for larger auto parts, shipping is tedious and challenging. Not all shipping operators are suitable for such needs. When dealing with larger auto parts, this information should be tracked real time and made available to the end customers. To achieve this, ecommerce players needs an integrated eco-system to bring together disparate systems. Without such a facility, customer experience is bound to take a hit.

Upselling to customers – Upsell and cross-sell generates a lot of revenue. However, not all ecommerce players have the necessary setup to achieve this. Most offline store generate good amount of revenue from this by recommending parts that fetch them better margins. Replicating this means having a good ecommerce setup in place to manage the information in real time.

Handling custom orders – Most B2B ecommerce business must offer certain amount of customization and automobile after parts market is no exception. The workflow needed to handle the custom requests is quite different from a standard request and is unique to each business.

Solutions for Popular Challenges

Platforms like Magento (Read our blog on why Magento 2 is good for B2B) have evolved to deliver most B2B feature that lacked in their predecessors. However, companies generally have critical and specific needs. Finding all those features in a single platform is rarity and a partner like i95Dev fits perfectly in such a scenario. We helped numerous companies build custom solution to suit their specific business needs and enhance customer experience. Let us look at how a growth partner like us can help and build custom solutions for the above discussed challenges.

While Magento can work with many inventory management platforms, not all custom workflows are supported. A typical automobile aftermarket parts store has large set of SKUs which is bound to grow perpetually. One solution for this is to provide a blow up diagram that can help navigate the product SKUs. To have this feature on your ecommerce store, you will need to pull the details of the parts the customer is looking at on real time basis and populate the same. A tight ERP ecommerce integration is a must for this scenario. If inventory management is your key problem, read our blog.

Custom shipping information needs – Larger inventory are inevitable and must be handled by specialized shipping companies. This information generally resides on ERP. By making this information available to the end user, the customer will stay informed on the status of the delivery. This also allows you to send automated messages when the delivery is going to be early or late.

Upselling and cross selling can help enhance revenues. However, these features need real-time information from ERP on inventory status, available price discounts, compatibility with the product in the cart, etc. These details can be easily populated with a connector like i95Dev’s Dynamics line of products. With minimal customizations, specific requirements (like populating products available in the same warehouse as the product in the cart) can also be met.

Custom requirements are common in any B2B scenario and automobile industry is no exception. Such scenarios need effective information management right from capturing the requirement to shipping the same. With a major amount of the operational data flowing from ERP, Magento ERP integration is vital in such a case.

All the above scenarios are based on our experience helping various ecommerce player over the period of more than 17 years. We help ecommerce players across the world build connected ecommerce eco-system. Our expertise spans over multiple ERPs including MS Dynamics GP, NAV, AX, 365, SAGE 100 and SAP B1. We work with leading solution provides in the ecommerce ecosystem to add value to our customers. For more information on how we can help you, please contact us on info@i95dev.com.

Sap Business One

Multinational Corporation often has to think about two main standards in abroad subsidiary MRP system selection. First is its integration with Company ERP, deployed in the Headquarters and second - localization status of the proposed ERP, where localization usually assumes two aspects - compliance to tax legislation and local language assist. Then worldwide surroundings could also be very diversified, nevertheless you will acknowledge the pattern - when you've gotten manufacturing facility in the small or mid-measurement nation - then tax laws is often extra "customary", than you probably have production plant within the large country.

Take into account Brazil, for example - it has distinctive tax necessities and localization from the tax compliance stand point is often complicated - it's best to do your homework in the selection. And, in the case of company enterprise, the ERP choice policy often requires worldwide ERP model, similar to SAP, Oracle or Microsoft Business Solutions. Let's come to SAP Business One particulars and choices.

o Multilanguage in one company. This characteristic permits your controller from the headquarter "surf" your overseas ERP through distant connection by simply switching Brazilian Portuguese to US or British English. Whatever index happens along with your ERP assist associate in Sao Paulo, Rio de Janeiro or any sudden accounting personnel turnover - you can be in management, as a result of you will know the right way to use your English screens

o Tax compliance. SAP Enterprise One is localized for Brazilian tax code and the tax engine as SAP believes will also be adopted for another giant nation, similar to India with the identical know-how approach and programming schema. In our opinion SAP used abstract method, when it designed the answer, which is flexible and adaptable with a number of tax-difficult markets criteria in the design.

o Integration. Nearly from any report display you'll be able to export your transactions in scope and it could be done in Excel, tab delimited text, etc. Then SAP Business One has integration software to mySAP/R/three - in case if your organization makes use of SAP within the Headquarters.

o Licensing. SAP Enterprise One uses All-in-one license kind, once you pay mounted price per named person (you will get CRM module only users at half of the common all-in-one license costs)

o Database Platform. Microsoft SQL Server within reason priced plus in case you have open license with Microsoft for your firm - you may use this advantage.

o Microsoft Office. SAP Business One is tightly integrated with MS Workplace - it emails by means of MS Outlook consumer of native workstation, exports information to Excel, etc. At present SAP has joint project with Microsoft - Mendocino - to integrate SAP R/three with Microsoft Office platform. SAP Enterprise One is probably ahead in its unique integration know-how.

o Brazilian version availability. It's available since February 2006.

o SAP Enterprise One SDK. If you happen to want custom tuning & programming, coming past the scope of consumer-pleasant interface modification & customization - it is best to search for SAP Enterprise One SDK customization partner, who's licensed to program SAP Enterprise One SDK

o Competitors. Localized: Portuguese translated and tax tune ERP versions have additionally Microsoft: Microsoft Navision/Dynamics NAV, Microsoft Axapta/Dynamics AX (since April 2006) (please make certain that Microsoft Solomon/Dynamics SL and Microsoft Great Plains/Dynamics GP usually are not supported by Microsoft Enterprise Options in Brazil), Oracle Financials/Purposes/E-Business Suite, SAP mySAP and SAP all-in-one. Plus chances are you'll must verify with regional ERP distributors, corresponding to Microsiga

o ERP Implementation Partner selection. That is the query of how comfy you are feeling your self on the native or regional IT consulting market. Typical is the case when ERP implementation company from the Headquarters aspect subcontracts Click Here for Wikipedia local ERP implementer in Brazil - or you can do the same - simply by choosing mid-dimension or small worldwide ERP consulting agency, specializing in worldwide enterprise and current in USA/Europe and Brazil on the same time.

At this second, as we write this text in the beginning of 2006, two worldwide ERP distributors are aggressively launching their campaigns on the Brazilian ground: Microsoft Enterprise Solutions with Microsoft Dynamics AX / Axapta (first quarter 2006) and SAP with SAP Business One (end of January/February 2006). Both companies have presence available on the SAP Business One in UAE market in Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro: SAP has mySAP-SAP R/three, sold, implemented and supported straight by SAP consultants (Sao Paulo SAP office) and Microsoft has Navision, supported by MBS associate channel. Plus SAP has SAP all-in-one, applied via the partners. Right here we're presenting our opinion on these campaigns and targeted clientele.

o Native ERPs: Microsiga has over 10% of the market and each Microsoft Business Solutions and SAP plan to attraction to Microsiga clientele. We could understand the plans, and clearly Microsiga has its personal defense technique Click here for Social Network - it suits to Brazilian taxation, payroll, authorities reporting. At the same time Microsoft, SAP and Oracle may play the card of worldwide enterprise requirements, particularly from the management reporting standpoint.

o SAP Enterprise One. When you take a look at SAP Enterprise One market area of interest within the USA or Europe, all-in-one named person licensing program normally has minimal requirement of 2 users. In Brazil, SAP not too long ago reconsidered it to be 5 customers, that implies that SAP BO would not go all the way down to the small companies, but reasonably targets mid-measurement and even upper mid-measurement purchasers.

o Microsoft Axapta / Dynamics AX. As you already know Microsoft has new identify for its Mission Green - now it's in the conception of Microsoft Dynamics. With Axapta and really 'ranging from the bottom' - Microsoft is probably staking on Axapta as its future know-how, and once more it is probably would go down to the mid-market and even low mid-market with Axapta licensing. Currently Axapta is in localization beta testing mode - Brazilian taxes, Portuguese language (language is not a priority - taxes are a way more difficult).

o Oracle Financials / Applications. Oracle has long-time presence in the marketplace right here. In case you are Oracle skilled - you ought to be aware of Oracle customization and localization know-how. Oracle has LATAM localized code and portion of that is relevant to Brazil specifics.

o Multinational Firms. Each Microsoft Axapta and SAP Enterprise One have superb positions to be chosen by Multinational corporation for it Brazilian subsidiary ERP. Each of them are localized, help Multilanguage (English and Portuguese are required in Brazil)

o Implementation Partner. Within the case of multinational company - you want the ERP accomplice who is very acquainted and experienced in international enterprise, has presence in USA, Europe and Brazil

o CRM. Navision, Axapta, SAP Business One, Oracle Financials have CRM module / granule. Microsoft and Oracle have superior CRM options: Microsoft CRM and Siebel respectively. Microsoft CRM has connectors to Microsoft Great Plains / Dynamics GP, SAP Business One Navision (by third party integration module) and Axapta integration is on the way. Also Microsoft CRM has connector to IBM Lotus Notes Domino, developed by Alba Spectrum Group, permitting you to guard the funding into Lotus Domino licenses.

SAP Enterprise One has about 4 years of implementation history and really robust presence within the USA, Europe, Australia, New Zealand, plus it has sturdy positions internationally. Considering the fact of relatively young age - the design of the system, together with object mannequin allow superior customization, integration with both legacy and new applied sciences. We see certain stake on Microsoft applied sciences, resembling MS SQL Server and COM object model. Built-in CRM module means that you can deploy Microsoft Outlook client for messaging, just to name a couple of. In addition to the customizability - SAP Enterprise One has transaction integration to high finish SAP, which permits this product to consolidate mid-size and small subsidiaries across the USA or internationally to your SAP corporate ERP system - franchisees network, dealerships, manufacturing amenities, and so on. On this small article we will give customization eventualities to IT managers, who're planning to deploy SAP Enterprise One integration, customization, reporting, and many others.

o SAP Enterprise One SDK. SAP Business One Software Improvement Equipment has Person Interface API, Information Interface API, Java Connector. The really helpful approach of customization design is XML net services, which permits you integrate customized https://www.btc-me.com/sap-business-one-in-uae-dubai internet portals with SAP Business One objects: Gross sales Orders, Stock Gadgets, Clients. Ecommerce or Internet-based mostly Extranet (collaboration together with your everlasting distributors and clients) can be a superb instance.

o Implementation Partners. SAP Business One has several licensing & certifications criteria. One path permits the SAP companion to provide installations and so-called practical consulting. Which means these firms are specialists of tying what you are promoting processes to SAP Business One standard set of modules and normal features/performance. In our opinion - SAP BO will not be only for relatively small SAP Business One in UAE to midsize businesses, but also for mid-size to giant and even company enterprise (subsidiaries and branches). Giant firms have combination of a number of methods, together with legacy - usually they combine several platforms: Windows, Unix/Linux, Lotus Notes Domino, Siebel CRM, Salelogix, IBM DB2 to call a few. In this situation you need partnership with technically-savvy and experienced companion

o Customization Partners. SAP Business One SDK will not be an open know-how and as a way to get access to it SAP Accomplice should get SDK improvement coaching and cross certification examination. At the similar time, SAP SDK makes use of open tools, such as Microsoft Visible Studio, for instance for coding itself. This leads to the common apply when Customization companions don't present implementation and useful consulting companies, however reasonably focus on growth - offshore enterprise location can also be frequent. Some risk, however may be attributed to the truth that one group does business processes specification and another one realizes them in customized coding.

o Technology Companions. The best result within the custom answer in our opinion may very well be achieved with SAP Business One Associate, who does either side: Implementation/Useful and Customization/Improvement. Contemplating much less then 10,000 SAP Enterprise One implementations worldwide - it may be troublesome to search out local technology partner in your space, on this case - the compromise is to make use of remote associate with the community of native impartial contractors.

What is EVOLUTE?

Based on Renishaw's industry-proven absolute technology, the EVOLUTE series is a true-absolute non-contact optical encoder with a 50 µm scale period, bringing superb installation tolerances and greater dirt immunity for applications that demand not only the highest operational integrity, but where fast installation is critical.

Resolutions down to 50 nm along with low SDE and jitter from cutting edge optical design and high-speed signal processing give the EVOLUTE encoder the targeted performance to meet the needs of the most demanding OEM applications.

What is RTLA50 scale?

RTLA50 incorporates the same stainless steel tape scale as RTLA, but this time with a 50 µm pitch version of our absolute scale code. It is accurate to ±10 µm/m and available in lengths up to 10.02 metres. Two mounting options are available, both of which allow independent scale thermal expansion and the convenience of tape scale.

RTLA50 can be used with the revolutionary FASTRACK™ scale carrier system. This system allows a track to be laid quickly and easily with no need for fixing holes. A sacrificial spacer is removed and the tape scale is then fed into the track.

RTLA50-S is laid onto the substrate with self-adhesive backing tape. The self-adhesive is formulated in such a way that it allows the scale to expand independently of the substrate.

To complete the installation, both types of scale are clamped at one point to provide a datum position.

Easy fault finding and servicing

The Advanced Diagnostic Tool ADTa‑100 acquires comprehensive real-time data from EVOLUTE™ encoder readheads. The information is displayed via the user-friendly ADT View software interface. Whilst in most cases the integral set-up LED on the encoder is sufficient for setting up the system, the ADT can be used to aid more challenging installations. The ADT can also report on encoder performance and assist system fault finding to avoid lengthy machine downtime.

Fast and easy installation

Machine build time is critical in OEM applications as time saved in component installation allows shorter manufacturing lead times and ultimately higher profitability. The large rideheight and tolerance offered by the EVOLUTE readhead (rideheight of 0.8 mm, tolerance ±0.25 mm) ensures fast and simple installation with instant validation from the integral set‑up LED, eliminating the need for time consuming fine adjustment. This superior set-up tolerance is enabled through advanced optics and by not following the conventional absolute measurement technique of using dual tracks side-by-side (one incremental, one absolute) which inherently suffer de-phasing problems when small amounts of angular misalignment are introduced.

Robust operation

Minimising down-time is a top priority for end-users of production machinery. The EVOLUTE encoder ensures up-time through multiple mechanisms that enable high dirt immunity for an optical system: a Digital Signal Processor (DSP) is used to analyse captured data from the custom image sensor and work with the optical imaging system to overcome light scattering effects of oily or greasy smears that may cause other encoders to fail; the custom point-source LED changes its flash duration to provide the best signal integrity for all traversing speeds; and finally, substantial redundancy is built into the absolute code pattern, allowing the EVOLUTE readhead to function over parts of the scale that are partially obscured by particulate contamination.

Interface option

DRIVE-CLiQ interface

No interface is required for the other available protocols.

The EVOLUTE encoder system is compatible with the Advanced Diagnostic Tool ADTa-100 and ADT View software. They provide comprehensive real-time encoder data feedback to aid more challenging installations and diagnostics. The intuitive software interface can be used for:

How to Transfer Data from Microsoft Dynamics 365 to a Database

Cloud data and cloud based applications have grown exponentially over the past years. Combining data sources and applications has become a major challenge for many companies. One of these important applications can be Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Sales.

Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Sales is an application that helps companies to interact with current and potential customers. It is widely used due to its convenient characteristics.

Often the data stored in Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Sales has to be transferred to a database such as MSSQL or MySQL.

In this article, you will learn how to do this by using DBSync Cloud Workflow.

Introducing DBSync Cloud Workforce DBSync is an integration platform that facilitates the integration between different systems. It manages all the communication, data translation and procedure interaction among the various connected applications.

This platform uses different processes, also known as business processes, to synchronize data between different databases and applications. These processes, in turn, use connectors to link different databases and applications.

DBSync presents you with a series of connectors. Among them, is the Microsoft Dynamics CRM connector, which has two  namely on-line, versions and on premise.

These connectors allow you to move data in and out of Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Sales, in order to populate data warehouses, synchronize master databases, and streamline transaction details and on the web payments.

How to transfer from MS Dynamics 365 for Sales to a database You will now see the necessary steps to transfer data from MS Dynamics 365 for Sales to MySQL. However, the same actions apply to other databases, such as MSSQL, Oracle, and PostgreSQL.

Step 1: Create a new project.

Here you are presented with two options: importing an existing project or defining a new one.

In order to create a new project, you must press the button Create Fresh Project. Then, you will be prompted to enter a name for your project and save it.

Step 2: Create a connector for each system that you intend to work with.

As you are connecting Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Sales to a database, you should create two connectors, one for each resource. One connector will be of type Database Connector and the other of type MSCRM Online Connector.

Step 3: Create a process.

Once you are connected to the source and the destination, you need to create a process that defines the transfer task. For this, you must press the button Create New Process and input a name. Just remember that process names cannot contain spaces.

Step 4: Create a workflow.

Each process may have several different workflows. In order to create a new workflow, you must press the Create New Workflow button. The system will ask for a workflow name. Just remember that the workflow name mustn't contain any empty spaces. Each workflow will contain a trigger and one or more rules.

Step 5: Configure a trigger.

A trigger lets you define a query to your data source, in our case Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Sales. You are presented with two options: query builder and advanced query builder. These alternatives give you the freedom to handle a query at different levels of sophistication, and according to your level of skills.

Stage 6: Create a rule.

You can have one or more rules for every workflow. Each rule defines the data destination and a mapping between source and destination.

Step 7: Define a map:

A map connects supply and target fields. With DBSync, the mapping is very easy as you can connect the source-destination field pairs by dragging and dropping.

Stage 8: Run the process.

You can do it manually or via a scheduler. Manual runs are useful for sporadic tasks (See figure 3). The scheduler lets you manage repeated runs, or go the process at a specific date and time.

Cloud Fronts worked with Tinius Olsen on implementing an integrated AX on Azure and Field Service solution with Power BI analytics for our global operations. Cloud Fronts' technical and functional depth across the Microsoft Dynamics platform and round the clock post go live support ensured a successful Go Live for this mission critical implementation.

How Complicated Data of a Luxury Retail Group of Companies Turned Into Beautifully Visualized Data

The Situation

The finance team of a luxury retail group of companies would spend more than 25 days to generate important financial reports that were critical for taking important business decisions. Most of the data to create the financial reports, was collected from Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 ERP directly.

Generating reports after pulling the data from the ERP was quite a tedious task, thus delaying reporting and further delaying important decision-making.

The same situation applied to marketing and sales departments as well.

Click here to get more info about: business intelligence dashboard

The Problem

Taking key business decisions was much slower in the company as a result of redundant investment of time in generating important Business Intelligence reports. The data came from disparate data sources, considering the group of companies had eight independent finance teams.

The retail giant’s IT team could facilitate pulling information from most of this data sources by using default MS Dynamics AX Operational Reports , the IT team couldn’t identify & automate the exact methodology to pull data from MS Dynamics AX ERP.

Additionally, there were a lot of eliminations in financial consolidation, considering multiple transactions between the different subsidiaries of the luxury retail group of companies, making ad-hoc analysis a further problem.

Talk to us directly to know more details about the case study

The Objective

To optimize the BI reporting process and cut down wastage of time in order to enable swift decision-making for key business functions. To enable this, the company required to create a single source of truth from disparate and isolated data sources. Extract, Transform and Load (ETL) the data from various sources for data modelling to generate BI reports.

The Solution

Data Semantics identified that generating BI reports for this retail giant required automating the data extraction & Transformation process.

The team of developers used MS Integration Services to extract & automate the data from Microsoft Dynamic AX12. Team also used Python to pull data automatically from sources like CRMs (Salesforce), Google Analytics, Social Media and MS Excel. This was quite a breezy affair.

The main challenge was to pull the data from Microsoft Dynamics AX ERP as the IT team of the retail giant couldn’t identify the exact Framework & tables to pull the data.

Pulling data from such an elaborate ERP system can be daunting task as it requires specialized expertise. MS Dynamics AX shows limited indications in the database to identify the exact data tables , making it difficult to automate data extraction.

Data Semantics CTO, Imaduddin Shah, having massive experience in Microsoft Dynamics and Azure ecosystem, could identify the exact tables from the MS Dynamics AX database to pull the data from. This critical knowledge led to saving tons of time and expediting the building of data-pulling automation algorithms.

BI DW Architecture Architecture: BI Reporting on Tableau (ERP as main data source)

The team had to write a complex algorithm to automate eliminations in financial consolidations, especially considering the multi-currency transaction complexities from subsidiaries operating across the globe.

After building the automation systems, the Data Semantics experts made it possible to deliver the data for creating BI reports on Tableau.
