Overview
National Instruments RT Series PXI embedded controllers deliver a flexible,
rugged platform for your deterministic, real-time measurement and control
applications. The NI PXI-8101 RT controller with its 2.0 GHz single-core
processor, 1 GB standard RAM, and 800 MHz DDR2 memory offers an ideal
balance of performance and value for real-time test and control applications.
I/O, and instrumentation. Communicate with peripheral devices through CAN,
GPIB, Ethernet, or serial protocols. Use NI-VISA to integrate third-party
PXI/CompactPCI modules in your application.
In addition, the PXI-8101 RT controller includes an external SMB connection
for use as a trigger input, output, or watchdog timer. Use the external SMB to
pass trigger and timing signals into and out of the PXI trigger bus in your system.
You develop your LabVIEW application with the LabVIEW Real-Time Module on
Windows and download the program to your PXI-8101 RT controller via Ethernet.

The embedded code executes on a real-time OS. Thus, you use the powerful and
flexible development tools of LabVIEW to build reliable, real-time solutions.
LabVIEW Real-Time applications running on PXI systems achieve microsecond
loop rates with only 3 to 4 ns of system jitter. These real-time measurement
and control systems capitalize on Intel processors combined with the advanced
Connect to Any I/O
The modularity of PXI and open development environment of LabVIEW make
it easy to integrate a variety of I/O within your application. Create a custom
real-time embedded solution using a PXI-8101 RT embedded controller with
any number and combination of PXI/CompactPCI plug-in modules.
Built-in LabVIEW libraries help you create applications with data acquisition,
dynamic signal acquisition, motion control, image acquisition, reconfigurable
Optional 32 GB solid-state drive can replace the hard drive.

Create Reliable Stand-Alone Systems
To ensure reliable operation, embedded LabVIEW Real-Time applications
continue to run even if the host PC is interrupted or rebooted. Because the
PXI-8101 RT embedded controller runs in a separate chassis with a dedicated
power supply, the operator can shut down the host computer entirely without
disrupting the real-time program.
For stand-alone operation, you can embed code in the system so that it starts
automatically when the system boots, requiring no human interaction. Use the
LabVIEW Professional Development System and LabVIEW Real-Time Module to
compile your LabVIEW application into an executable and download it to your
PXI-8101 RT controller.

Step 2. Select Storage Options
You can configure NI PXI embedded controllers to boot into Windows or the
real-time OS. NI Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX) includes features
for installing and configuring PXI embedded controllers as LabVIEW Real-Time
targets. The controllers use a hardware switch or BIOS setting to boot into the
desired OS.
The result is a PXI embedded controller that can run embedded LabVIEW
Real-Time or Windows applications. When the controller is in real-time mode,
you need another Windows computer to develop and debug the LabVIEW
Real-Time code for the PXI controller. To enable a Windows PXI embedded

benchmarks use the LabVIEW Real-Time Module Version 8.6.1 with NI-DAQmx Version 8.9.
Benchmarks that do not test network performance run on a headless target without a
direct Ethernet connection for maximum performance. Benchmarks that do test network
performance use interrupt-mode Ethernet via a direct connection between the host PC and
real-time target with a crossover cable. Visit ni.com or contact National Instruments for
additional benchmarks.
