National Instruments cFP-2110 Compact FieldPoint LabVIEW Real-Time/Ethernet Network Controller

The cFP-2110 (Part number: 777317-2110) is a high-performance Compact FieldPoint Controller from National Instruments. This model can be utilized for embedded and distributed I/O applications. The user can control it without having any prior knowledge of programming. Users can carry out real-time measurements, analysis, and simulation. The NI cFP-2110 FieldPoint Controller enables the user to create user-defined applications, such as data logging, I/O, PIDs, signal processing, and analysis algorithms. There are various applications for control engineers in industrial environments. These applications include PID control loops, actuate valves, and motors.

The NI cFP-2110 FieldPoint Controller also offers peer to peer communication capabilities for cFP-21xx Intelligent FieldPoint Controllers and Ethernet-based devices. The instrument offers various interfaces and control features on the front panel, which includes Ethernet and RS-232 communication ports, LED indicators, DIP switches, a reset switch, and power connector. The backplane of the instrument offers a mounting capability for a standard 19-inch rack. There are numerous controlling techniques available with or without a host PC. The NI cFP-2110 FieldPoint Controller also comes with a network watchdog feature to protect the system against network connection failures, cables, or the host computer. This feature is disabled by default.

The National Instruments cFP-2110 FieldPoint LabVIEW Real-Time/Ethernet Network Controller complies to IEEE802.3 specifications. The instrument incorporates 10BaseT and 100BaseTX Ethernet and offers the communication rates of 10 and 100 Mbps. These rates are auto-negotiable. This model also includes 64 MB of nonvolatile storage memory and 128 MB of DRAM. The lifetime of the memory is 300,000 times per sector.
