For customers who already have Modula WMS installed in warehouse but need to link to Host system for automatic communication to let Host System taking full control, Modula Link is the ideal solution for you.

Modula Link is the WMS system to provide integration with external Host System, it has low-level control over a group of Lift OS machines, uses a set of commands communicate over a TCP/IP sockets channel, to give the higher control to company Host system.

Modula Link acts as the communication server: it opens a TCP port (configurable) and waits to receive commands from company Host System; when it receives a valid command from the external host system, it processes it and responds to host system to confirm.

Modula Link can be configured to handle commands from either a single customer (mono-customer communication) or from several different customers (multi-customer communication).

Modula Link

When the Host system needs to call a tray, it sends a command to Modula Link. Modula Link then call the tray and send it to the picking position, once it is ready, it will inform the Host system, once the Host system confirms, it will process the picking/refilling, once the operation complete, it returns the tray back to storage, and sends a response to Host system.

Modula Link WMS system only support receiving one call tray request each time, once the tray is ready, it shows in Modula co-pilot console, but it does not notify the operator; the Host system takes control and notify the operator of the operation to be carried out and asks for a confirmation once the operation complete.

Normally we recommend customer to use a picking tool like RF terminal, or an external PC. Thus, could achieve precise, real-time control of your automated warehouse. Customer Host system can be equipped with more advanced logistics features.
