Stand-alone controller runs Linux
Staff -- Test & Measurement World, 3/1/2007 2:00:00 AM
United Electronic Industries has introduced the UEIPAC line of programmable automation controllers. These stand-alone PAC modules contain an embedded computer running a standard Linux operating system, two Ethernet ports, a serial port, a Secure Digital (SD) card interface, an inter-PAC sync interface, and either three or six I/O card slots.
I/O boards add up to 150 analog inputs and 288 digital I/O channels. Other I/O boards add analog outputs, counter/timer channels, quadrature encoders, serial ports, CAN bus ports, and ARINC-429 interfaces. You can write your application on a PC and download it to the controller, which can then operate as a stand-alone unit. The modules operate in harsh environments from –40°C to +85°C, at 5-g vibration, at 50-g shock, and at up to 70,000 ft in altitude for aerospace testing.
Prices: UEIPAC 300 (3 I/O board slots)—$1495; UEIPAC 600 (6 I/O board slots)—$1795. United Electronic Industries, www.ueidaq.com.
