Time used to integrate scientific equipment and get the various compnents of a complex system operating smoothly is time wasted. PREVAC has tackled this problem with a softwarre platform that actually helps accelerate the scientific research process. RAPID SE (Rapid Scientific Environment) is a complete and versatile software environment which was developed after many year’s experience of listening to and working with research labs worldwide. It is an intuitive, user-friendly environment which allows complex and interdependent scientific equipment to be operated from a single platform. Every aspect of a complete system, from pump-down and vent routines, sample manipulation, process recipe steps and data acquisition can be quickly and intuitively managed from the core RAPID SE platform. Rapid provides the following advantages: • Real time synchronous data acquisition • Fast, real time chart data preview
 • Process automation with safety guard • Visual system state presentation • Process creation and control
 • Extendable and reconfigurable during runtime (additional modules, connections, data presentations, etc.)
 • Full system control from Graphical User Interface
 • Fully customizable user interface
 • Password protected user profiles
 • Number of configurable working mode (eg. admin, scientist, student)
 • Multi-screen support
 • Graphical system state presentation
 • Full system events log for system maintain and quick problem detection
 • Email or SMS message notification on system events and errors
 • Export collected data to various formats (real time data, archived data)
 • PLC integration (option) Examples of use: Data acquisition systems (data acquisition, system/de- vices control, failure detection and log) • Deposition systems (complete process and vacuum control, data acquisition, failure detection and log)
 • TDS (Thermal Desorption Spectroscopy Process Control) • UMS (Universal Mass Spectrometer)
 • VPC(Vacuum Pressure Control)
 • ASTS (Automation of The Sample Transfer System) • Vacuum Conditions Simulators
