The GageWay SM is an easy-to-use interface designed to connect a single Mitutoyo digital gage (calipers, micrometers, digital indicators, etc.) to a USB port. The GageWay SM interfaces also support any gage that provides a standard Mitutoyo output (CDI, Federal Maxum, etc.). When using the USB version of the GageWay SM, the USB connection looks like a standard RS-232 serial port to your PC application.
