Software get red-y

Efficient Device Management for our Thermal Mass Flow Meters & Controllers

With the free get red-y software, users now have PC access to all connected Vögtlin measuring and control devices. Beside displaying key information, users can also view and modify various operating parameters. Thanks to intelligent device monitoring, the software is a perfect service and analysis tool, e.g. to check and adjust settings.

Key Features

Device Information

Display all key device information, e.g. reading, temperature, total, valve voltage etc.

Specify a setpoint for flow and pressure controllers

Assign a device name, e.g. name of measuring point ID

Change the device address (Modbus, Profibus)

Visualization of measured data

Adjust the control speed

Operating State Monitoring

The software monitors key operating parameters and indicates irregularities such as:

Sensor and communication errors

Unusual device behavior (instability, contamination, etc.)

Switch Measurement Units & Gas Type

Select the desired units of measurement

For devices that have been calibrated for several different gases (multigas), user can switch to different stored gas data sets

Plug & Play with USB Cable

Digital communication cable USB/RS485 (PDM-U Art. 328-2180) and versatile cable accessories ensure that measurement and control devices can be operated troublefree from the PC.

Logging, Mixing & Calibration Module (optional)

Mix gases with fixed percental proportions

Master/Slave mixing function

Visualize and log all measured data

Export as CSV file for further use in MS Excel or similar program

Check for deviations in the mass flow meters and controllers

Calibration & Adjustment Module (optional / incl. training)

The calibration module can be used to check for deviations in the red-y smart series mass flow meters and controllers.

The supplemental adjustment module permits manual or automatic adjustment.

Offer and sale of adjustment functionality at the sole discretion of the manufacturer. The manufacturer reserves the right to refrain from offering or selling of this feature.

System Requirements

The get red-y 5 software runs under Windows 10 & 11. For required hardware, please refer to the operating manual of the software.

Tutorials & FAQs

What is required to let the devices communicate to a PC?

Vögtlin offers a wide range of accessories, so that the devices can be operated directly via a PC with very little effort. In detail:

» Cable accessories for the red-y smart series

The free software get red-y offers a wide range of possibilities in context with the digital communication:

  • Configuration of the serial computer interface
  • Setting the program language
  • Scanning and depicting the bus structure
  • Integrating individual devices into the bus structure
  • Reading the device-specific hardware and software versions
  • Displaying the measuring value, the totalizer and the temperature of a device
  • Setting the set values
  • Resetting totalizer
  • Selecting or changing the regulating parameter sets
  • Setting the PI control parameters and checking performance
  • Selecting the corresponding calibration data set (multi-calibration)

In addition, the following functions can optionally be unlocked:

  • Data logger
  • Mixer

Measuring range too large/small: Can the full scale of the device be adapted on site?

The mass flow meters and controllers of the red-y smart series and red-y industrial series have a very large dynamic range and can be converted to a certain extent on site.

A measuring device can be reprogrammed with the help of our service department by means of the get-red-y software. You will receive a password (valid for one day) for enabling this advanced function. Please contact our service department for more information.

What device parameters can be changed on site?

The device parameters will be configured in the factory prior to delivery according to the data provided by you.
The following parameters can be set changed with the help of the get-red-y software:

  • Selecting the regulating parameter sets slow/medium/fast
  • Establishing your own control parameters (PID)
  • Converting the flow unit
  • Converting to a different reference temperature
  • Setting a start-up set value and/or a set value delay (soft start)
  • In the case of the option of a configured display: setting the displayed measured variables
  • For service purposes, additional parameters can be accessed by means of a (temporally) password
