MCL Collection
Overview
MCL-Mobility Platform is part of MCL-Collection, a set of tools that allow you to develop, connect, integrate and manage batch and wireless applications for all types of devices.
The MCL-Collection consists of:
•MCL-Designer V4: a visual RAD tool for building MCL applications.
•MCL-Client V4 (MCL firmware): a runtime engine that allows devices to execute programs written in the MCL Code scripting language (Output of MCL-Designer 4.x).
•MCL-Mobility Platform: a cloud based platform operating on SaaS (Software as a service) that allows for the managing of the device pool, subscriptions, MCL applications, etc.
•MCL-Net V4: a communications program that enables network communication (Ethernet, WiFi and WWAN (GPRS/UMTS/4G)) between the host computer and several thousand devices. This program works alongside MCL-Bridge which enables the devices to connect, for example, to SAP, to a Host Database, etc.
•MCL-Loader V4: a software tool that enables you to install MCL software (ex: MCL-Client) and activate product licenses in devices.
•MCL-License Manager: a cloud-based platform that allows you to manage purchased MCL-Client licenses.
