Insight 2

Insight 2 PC software is a graphical user interface (GUI) allowing all IQ3, CK, CVA and SI Pro set-up, configuration and data logger information to be reviewed, analysed and reconfigured.

The visually interactive standalone application makes analysing the data from Rotork Bluetooth® enabled actuators simple and fast. Laptops with compatible built-in Bluetooth® wireless technology or alternatively a USB Bluetooth® Dongle, running Insight 2 can be directly connected to an actuator located in the field to allow set up, adjustment and analysis.


Insight 2 Software for PC - Version 5.0.21 is fully compatible with Windows 10, 8, 7, Vista and XP (including touch screens) and supports USB-Bluetooth® adapter technology. Click here for a list of tested adapters.


Insight 2 is not compatible with the older IQmk2IQ Insight must be used instead.


Information on actuator specification, set up and operation can be shared between colleagues and sites and when required with Rotork representatives.
