SCInterface for Sensors Feature List
From SCInterface Wiki
The following table shows a feature list and capabilities of SCInterface for Sensors. We are constantly adding support for new platforms.
SCInterface is robust platform for managing many types of sensors across multiple platforms through a single interface. A single SC can be installed and added into SCInterface in just a few minutes. To view a list of currently supported sensors, visit here.
Attention SCInterface OL Users: As of SCInterface version 2.0, the OL version (or open source version) is a full feature version of SCInterface, but with support for only one SC running on the same system as the SCM. The commercial version of SCInterface supports an unlimited number of SCs based on the license type. Please visit http://www.scinterface.com/licenses for more information.
