The NI cRIO-9002 includes 32 MB of DRAM memory and 64 MB of nonvolatile flash storage for file storage. The cRIO-9004 includes 64 MB of DRAM memory and 512 MB of nonvolatile flash storage for data-logging applications. Both controllers are designed for extreme ruggedness, reliability, and low power consumption with dual 9 to 35 VDC supply inputs that deliver isolated power to the CompactRIO chassis/modules and a -40 to 70 °C temperature range. A 195 MHz industrial processor balances low power consumption with powerful real-time floating-point signal processing and analysis capabilities for deterministic control loops exceeding 1 kHz. The CompactRIO real-time controller connects to any 4- or 8-slot CompactRIO reconfigurable chassis. The user-defined FPGA circuitry in the chassis controls each I/O module and passes data to the controller through a local PCI bus, using built-in communication functions. Embedded Software You can synchronize embedded code execution to an FPGA-generated interrupt request (IRQ) or an internal millisecond real-time clock source. The LabVIEW Real-Time ETS OS provides reliability and simplifies the development of complete embedded applications that include time-critical control and acquisition loops in addition to lower-priority loops for postprocessing, data logging, and Ethernet/serial communication. Built-in elemental I/O functions such as the FPGA Read/Write function provide a communication interface to the highly optimized reconfigurable FPGA circuitry. Data values are read from the FPGA in integer format, and then converted to scaled engineering units in the controller. Figure 1. CompactRIO Hardware Architecture Figure 2. CompactRIO Software Architecture CompactRIO Real-Time Embedded Controllers Built-In Servers In addition to programmatic communication via TCP/IP, UDP, Modbus/TCP, IrDA, and serial protocols, the CompactRIO controllers include built-in servers for Virtual Instrument Software Architecture (VISA), HTTP, and FTP. The VISA server provides remote download and communication access to the reconfigurable I/O (RIO) FPGA over Ethernet. The HTTP server provides a Web browser user interface to HTML pages, files, and the user interface of embedded LabVIEW applications through a Web browser plug-in. The FTP server provides access to logged data or configuration files.
