Description
The VXI Embedded Controller with the part number 183513C-300, known as model VXICPU-030, is a highly capable device designed for advanced computing tasks. This controller falls under the category of VXI Embedded Controller and is equipped with a standard kit that includes an internal 512M hard disk, offering ample storage for various applications.
At the heart of this controller is the 68030-microprocessor, which is based on the highly regarded MVME147S processor board from Motorola. This powerful processor ensures that the controller can handle complex computations and processes efficiently. The default configuration of this device positions it as the system controller of VXIbus Slot 0, providing a seamless integration and management capability within the VXIbus system.
Software support is provided through NI-VXI driver software, which operates on the VxWorks OS, ensuring a stable and reliable software environment for the controller. The standard interfaces of this device include an intelligent Ethernet Interface, two RS-232 ports, a SCSI interface, and IEEE 488/IEEE488.2 interface. These interfaces offer a wide range of connectivity options, making it versatile for various application needs. Additionally, the SCSI support comes with onboard DMA, enhancing data transfer and processing capabilities.
For users requiring more connectivity options, there are optional interfaces available, including 8 RS-232 ports, a printer interface that is Centronics compatible, and an option for an internal hard disk drive, offering further customization based on specific needs.
Despite its obsolete status, as announced by National Instruments, the VXI Embedded Controller model VXICPU-030 is still available for purchase and repairs through Apex Waves. This availability ensures that users can continue to benefit from the robust performance and reliability of this controller in their applications.
