<http://groov.com/svg-library/>More new graphics for you in the *groov* SVG Library...

If you use pipes in your *groov* operator interface, you'll appreciate these new images: pipes, elbows, junctions, simple tanks, pumps, valves, meters, and more.

The images are designed so their parts will line up even when scaled.

<http://www.opto22.com/site/documents/doc_drilldown.aspx?aid=4616>When you're a smaller water/wastewater treatment district, it can be difficult to fund the SCADA systems you need.

All water/wastewater operations have to be strictly monitored and their data stored for reference, no matter the size of the district.

<https://blog.opto22.com/optoblog/debugging-your-industrial-network-with-wireshark>One Ethernet network troubleshooting tool our Product Support Group recommends is [Wireshark](https://blog.opto22.com/optoblog/debugging-your-industrial-network-with-wireshark). It's been a helpful choice for many years, and it's free.

Our recent blog post explains where to get Wireshark and how to use it. You can pay a lot for network analysis tools—and in some cases you may need them—but many times, the free ones do the job.
