Description
The VXI Embedded Controller, part number 187458D-210, is a robust computing solution designed specifically for VXI systems. The model VXIPC-871B features a 1.26 GHz Pentium-III processor, ensuring high-speed processing and efficient operation. This model comes with Windows NT pre-installed, offering a reliable and user-friendly interface for various applications.
Manufactured by National Instruments, this embedded controller is part of a versatile product line with various versions available, distinguished by their part numbers – 778295-00 (No OS), 778295-01 (Windows 2000), 778295-02 (Windows NT 4.0), and 778295-03 (Windows XP). This flexibility ensures that users can select the version that best fits their system requirements.
The device is built around the Intel 815E chipset, providing a solid foundation for stable and reliable operation. Connectivity is a strong suit of the VXIPC-871B, featuring a variety of ports including Ethernet (RJ45), SCSI, Parallel, Serial, GPIB, USB, and PS/2, making it highly versatile in terms of peripheral and network connections.
With a 24X max CD-ROM drive speed, installing software and reading data discs is efficient and fast. Additionally, its VXI slot compatibility is indicated as ‘0’, highlighting its intended use as a controller rather than a plug-in module. The controller comes with NI-VXI/NI-VISA software included, and it is compatible with a range of software such as Measurement Studio, LabVIEW, Microsoft Visual C++, and Microsoft Visual Basic, making it a highly adaptable solution for various measurement and automation tasks.
Although it has been announced as obsolete by National Instruments, it remains available for purchase and repairs via Apex Waves.
