Description
The VXI-1000, with part number 776323-03 and an alternative part number of 191000-01, is categorized under the VXI Chassis segment. This model is specifically designed to meet the requirements of the VXIbus System Specification, ensuring compatibility and seamless integration into existing systems. Manufactured by National Instruments, a leader in the field, the VXI-1000 stands out for its robust construction and advanced features.
One of the primary features of this model is its primary power option which supports Australian 240 VAC, making it suitable for deployments in regions with this power standard. The chassis is a C-size mainframe that offers a 5-slot capacity, allowing for a compact yet versatile platform for various VXI modules.
The cooling system of the VXI-1000 is particularly noteworthy. It employs a two-speed pressurized-directed airflow mechanism, providing 40 to 50 W of cooling for each slot. This ensures that all installed modules operate within their optimal temperature ranges, thereby enhancing performance and longevity. Moreover, the chassis boasts a 400 W switching, autoranging power supply, capable of efficiently managing power distribution across all slots.
For developers, the VXI-1000 offers convenient module development access through its removable top and bottom covers. This feature simplifies the process of installing or replacing modules, making maintenance routines less time-consuming. Additionally, the mainframe is EMI-protected, safeguarding sensitive components from electromagnetic interference and ensuring reliable operation in various environmental conditions.
Compliance with industry standards is another strength of the VXI-1000. It meets the requirements of VEDA, UL, and FCC, demonstrating its adherence to safety, quality, and regulatory benchmarks. The chassis also supports a variety of connector types, including two 96-pin VXIbus connectors (P1 and P2) per slot, IACK, Jumperless Bus Grant, and IACK daisy-chain connectors, providing flexibility in module connectivity.
Furthermore, the VXI-1000 offers an optional storage solution, with space for a 3.5-inch floppy drive or hard drive, allowing users to expand its functionality according to their specific needs. Despite being announced as obsolete, the VXI-1000 remains available for purchase and repairs through Apex Waves, ensuring that users can continue to rely on this versatile and reliable chassis for their VXIbus system
