Description
The VXIpc-770, carrying part numbers 778299-00 and 778299-01, is a robust 1-slot VXI Controller designed to meet the needs of various computing environments. At its core, this model operates on a 566 MHz Celeron processor, supported by an Intel 815E chipset and an Intel 82815 integrated graphics controller, ensuring reliable performance and compatibility with VXIplug&play standards.
Despite its advanced features, the VXIpc-770 is offered without a pre-installed operating system, allowing users to customize their setup according to specific requirements. Memory specifications were not detailed, granting potential for customization based on user needs. A notable feature is its battery—a lithium battery that supports a battery-backed real-time watch, ensuring continuous operation and time tracking even in the event of power disruptions.
Integrated within the unit is an NI Watchdog, which provides an added layer of security and reliability through system monitoring. For enhanced connectivity, this model boasts two SMB trigger I/O connectors, along with hardware and software control of VXI trigger lines. It also responds to all VXI-defined protocols on ECL and P2 trigger lines, showcasing its versatility in handling various protocols.
The VXIpc-770 is equipped with sophisticated counting features, including an internal counter capable of managing interrupts, events, and generating variable-length pulses, pulse trains, and pulse stretching. External device support is also notable, with compatibility for an external USB CD-ROM drive, enhancing its usability and flexibility in different operational scenarios.
Despite being announced as obsolete by National Instruments, the VXIpc-770 remains available for purchase and repairs through Apex Waves, ensuring continued support for users relying on this high-performance VXI Controller.
