Solve your measurement tasks without racking your brain over formulas or programming a PLC. With the Cyberus® Direct Core application, you won’t need either — quality made simple, at the press of a button!
Cyberus® Direct Core
The Cyberus® Direct Core is a Windows-based measurement application that runs on your own PC. It gives you a software-defined framework to build your own measuring system — whether on a desktop computer, laptop, or panel PC. The app communicates with external components and fixtures as long as they meet the compatibility requirements of our app.
That means you’re free to design your system, select the mechanical and electronic components you need — and control them via the app.
In short: the Cyberus® Direct Core is a measurement brain. You choose the body.
What makes Cyberus® Direct Core different?
Unlike most modular systems, the Cyberus® Direct Core requires no PLC programming and no mathematical guesswork.
In short: the Cyberus® Direct Core is a measurement brain. You choose the body.
- Built-in formulas
The app contains ready-to-use formulas for calculating almost any dimension that results from machining. - No code required
Create complete measurement and automation workflows without writing a single line of PLC code. Your quality engineer won’t need to involve the automation team — Cyberus® does the heavy lifting.
Cyberus® Direct StationOne
Cyberus® Direct StationOne is a portable measuring station based on the Cyberus® Direct Core application. All the required hardware — including a panel PC, safety circuit, and control cabinet — is integrated into a single briefcase-sized unit. It’s ready to use, factory-tested, and extremely compact.
Need more digital I/O later? No problem — StationOne can be expanded externally via USB.
It’s a unique combination of high-precision measurement, automation, and portability — all in one box.

One system – two approaches
| Feature | Cyberus® Direct Core | Cyberus® Direct StationOne |
|---|---|---|
| Function | PC-based measuring application, user-defined system setup | Pre-configured, portable measuring station |
| Hardware | Runs on any Windows PC with RS-485 support | Includes built-in panel PC, power supply, control unit |
| Modularity | Fully modular (your hardware modules + our software options) | Configurable at order – expandable via USB after delivery |
| Target audience | Machine builders, integrators, automation departments | SMEs, quality control teams, mobile measuring needs |
| Strength | Freedom, flexibility, lower total system cost | Fast deployment, compact size, plug & play |
You only pay for what you use
Whether you’re using Cyberus® Direct Core or Cyberus® Direct StationOne, you only pay for the features you actually use.
- BASIC: 4 probe inputs (default configuration)
- EXTENDED: Adds 4 more inputs — measure with up to 8 probes simultaneously
- CODEREADER: Links measurements to part ID codes (e.g. from barcode or QR camera), enabling full traceability. Supports per-machine statistics — so you can trace parts back to the production machine
- PCIO, EXTIO, SUPIO: Digital I/O control for automation and sensor integration
- USER: Custom user authentication — via keyboard login, keyboard-emulated card reader, or serial port card reader
What do you need to get started?
- Any Windows PC (10 / 11 / IoT)
- The Cyberus® Direct Core application
- A Peter Hirt RS-485 digital probe with interface. We chose Peter Hirt because they offer full protocol transparency — no vendor lock-in, no hidden layers.
- A hardware security dongle
- A suitable fixture (measurement setup)
No controller boxes, no vendor lock-in, no need to rack your brain. Just connect and measure.
How does it work?
Dead simple.
- Set your measurement parameters, and simply go ahead.
- Save and reload your project anytime.
- The user interface is touch-optimised — but works just as smoothly with a regular monitor.
- All measured results can be exported to formats compatible with most SPC software (e.g. Q-DAS, Minitab, Excel).
- Probe checks are quick and painless.
