NI Compact FieldPoint


Compact FieldPoint is an easy-to-use, highly expandable programmable automation controller (PAC) composed of rugged I/O modules and intelligent communication interfaces. Download your National Instruments LabVIEW application to the embedded controller for reliable, stand-alone operation and connect your sensors directly to high-accuracy analog and discrete I/O modules. These industrial I/O modules filter, calibrate, and scale raw sensor signals to engineering units and perform self-diagnostics to look for problems, such as an open thermocouple. Compact FieldPoint network communication interfaces automatically publish measurements with an Ethernet network. You can access I/O points nearby or miles away on the network using the same simple read/write software framework.

Benefits
Use the following Compact FieldPoint features to quickly build rugged industrial systems:
• 50 G shock, 5 G vibration
• Industrial operating temperature range from -40°C to 70°C
• Built-in signal conditioning with isolation
• Native Ethernet and Web communicatio
