National Instruments PXIe-8106 PXI Controller

The PXIe-8106 (Part Numbers: 779920-00, 779920-01, 779921-00, and 779921-01) is a Dual-Core Processor, Embedded Controller for PXI and CompactPCI frameworks. It is utilized for measured instrumentation and DAQ applications. The NI PXIe-8106 incorporates 10/100/1000BASE-TX (Gigabit) Ethernet and four Hi-Speed USB ports, as well as an integrated hard drive, a serial port, and other types of peripheral I/O.

The modularity of PXI and open development environment of LabVIEW make it simple to integrate an assortment of I/O inside the user’s application. Users can make a custom continuous embedded arrangement utilizing the PXIe-8106 with any number and mix of PXI/CompactPCI plug-in modules. With built-in LabVIEW libraries, the user can make applications with data acquisition, dynamic signal acquisition, motion control, image acquisition, reconfigurable I/O, and instrumentation. In addition, the user can communicate with CAN gadgets, GPIB, Ethernet, or serial protocols, and utilize NI-VISA software to incorporate outsider PXI/CompactPCI modules into an application.

The NI PXIe 8106 will enable users to make reliable stand-alone systems. To guarantee dependable activity, embedded LabVIEW Real-Time applications keep on running regardless of whether the host PC is interrupted or rebooted. Since the National Instruments PXIe-8106 Embedded Controller keeps running in a different chassis with a dedicated power supply, the user can close the host PC without disturbing the continuous program. For remaining single activity, users can add code in the framework with the goal that it begins consequently when the framework boots, requiring no human association. It is also possible to utilize the LabVIEW Professional Development System and LabVIEW Real-Time Module to arrange the LabVIEW application and download it to the NI PXIe-8106 Controller.
