    PHILADELPHIA, Pa. - November 30, 2007 - New FAST Link(TM) software from Accu-Sort Systems, Inc. now makes it easy to link data from real-time automatic identification devices with enterprise IT systems. FAST Link removes the barrier of integrating auto ID devices by providing information that existing IT resources can access and utilize, eliminating the need for in-house custom code development.

    "Automation projects, both big and small, often present many challenges to an organization before, during and after implementation. FAST Link is a packaged software tool that makes it easy to integrate automatic identification devices into enterprise systems. Users save money by avoiding programming costs, and they avoid competing for internal IT resources in a long project that can sometimes take months to complete," said Mike Kuhno, Accu-Sort Systems Product Manager. "In contrast, FAST Link can be configured and communicating information in less than an hour."

    The centralized system-configuration management built into FAST Link software eliminates integration complexity. Users simply connect a device, configure the network address and select where and how to send the data. Users can start with a single auto ID device and then add multiple devices and lines as needed to support expansion and growth.
