Description
The system is powered by an Intel Core 2 Duo T9400 processor that operates at 2.53 GHz and includes a dual-core architecture. This powerful processor is complemented by a 6 MB shared L2 cache, enhancing its efficiency and speed.
For memory, it utilizes Dual-channel 800 MHz DDR2 RAM. Initially, it supports a basic configuration but offers an upgrade option up to 4 GB, using a single 4 GB DIMM module, allowing for improved performance and multitasking capabilities.
The storage solution comes in the form of an 80 GB SATA hard drive, spinning at 5400 rpm. This provides ample space for operating systems, applications, and data storage, considering the device’s compatibility with older operating systems such as Windows 7, Windows Vista, and Windows XP.
Graphics are handled by a Mobile Intel GM45 Express Chipset with an integrated GPU. This setup supports basic computing needs and is capable of handling video output through a DVI-I connector, which also supports VGA with an adaptor, offering flexibility in monitor connections. Additionally, it supports dual monitor setups, enabling both analog and digital connections or two VGA connections for expanded desktop real estate.
When it comes to software tools compatibility, this system is versatile. It supports a range of development and programming tools including LabVIEW, Measurement Studio, Lab Windows/CVI, Visual Basic, Visual C++, and Visual Studio .NET, along with the NI-DAQmx driver, making it suitable for a wide range of technical and scientific applications.
The I/O interfaces include a variety of ports such as Video (DVI-I), Serial (COM 1), Ethernet (LAN), Parallel port, USB (4 ports), PXI trigger, GPIB Controller, and an ExpressCard/34 module. This extensive connectivity allows for the integration of various peripherals and instruments, enhancing the system’s utility in complex setups.
Despite its obsolete status announced by National Instruments, this system remains available for purchase and repairs through Apex
