The NI TPC-2012 offers a 500 MHz AMD GX3 processor and 256 MB DDR SDRAM, providing a powerful processor for human machine interface (HMI) graphics and shared variable communication. The system comes with Windows CE installed on a 128 MB CompactFlash storage card. The built-in 10/100 Ethernet port offers TCP/IP and Modbus TCP/IP communication using NI LabVIEW shared variables, TCP/IP VIs, or the Modbus LabVIEW library. The two USB ports provide connectivity for external memory, keyboard, and mouse. The TPC-2012 runs the Windows CE.NET OS and comes with configuration and remote access utilities installed. These utilities include an IP address configurator, configuration for FTP and other utilities over a Web server, and Remote Display, which works in conjunction with the Windows CE Remote Display Host application, so you can remotely control the TPC-2012 from a host PC STE. a.

LabVIEW offers an integrated graphical development environment for creating embedded programs for real-time hardware using the LabVIEW Real-Time Module. Or you can download code directly to FPGAs using the LabVIEW FPGA Module and then easily add an on-machine or local HMI with the LabVIEW Touch Panel Module and a Windows CE touch panel computer. You can easily add Windows CE targets such as the TPC-2012 and TPC-2006 to a LabVIEW Project, create host-shared variables on any LabVIEW Real-Time target, and drag them from the LabVIEW Project to the HMI application. Figure 1. TPC-2012 Connectivity Figure 2. TPC-2012 Dimensions (mm) Industrial Windows CE Touch Panel Computer Typical System Configurations Communication Options with LabVIEW With the LabVIEW Touch Panel Module, you have several options for communication between the TPC-2012 STE and NI programmable automation controllers (PACs) and third-party PLCs including: • Shared variables over Ethernet • Native LabVIEW TCP/IP, serial, SMTP, or UDP • Modbus TCP/IP or Modbus ASCII over Ethernet or serial With this wide range of communication options, you can select the best method for your application. The LabVIEW shared variable offers the easiest solution for communication over Ethernet and shortens development time so you can build a quick and powerful user interface. For more advanced programming requirements, use the native LabVIEW TCP/IP or UDP VIs to develop more refined Ethernet-based communication or add e-mailing capabilities with built-in LabVIEW SMTP e-mail VIs. Connect to external serial devices using one of the four RS232 ports. For connectivity to Modbus PLCs or RTU controllers, use the LabVIEW Modbus Library to easily communicate between a touch panel computer and a PLC through the industry-standard Modbus protocol over Ethernet or serial.
