Active Ethernet I/O extends LabVIEW's remote monitoring capability. LabVIEW's built-in Modbus library can easily be used to connect to an Active Ethernet I/O server. LabVIEW also has a passive TCP software component that can instantly receive TCP/UDP messages from Active Ethernet I/O servers.

DataCELL FIELD Profibus PA ISA/SP50 Type A cable is available in 18AWG with foil shielding. It is rated for CSA CMX-Outdoor-CMG, FT4 and ITC (instrument tray cable)/PLTC (power limited tray cable) exposed-run (ER) applications. An arctic-rated marine shipboard version suitable for use down to –55°C is also available.

Software offerings include Wonderware Information Server 3.0; Historian 9.0; and ActiveFactory 9.2, all of which work with Microsoft Office 2007, SharePoint Services and SQL Server Reporting Services. These make the collaboration of plant-production and performance information faster and easier.

The 9331-TI handles 2 and 3 wire RTD, thermocouple, voltage and resistance inputs, with each unit supporting eight independently configurable temperature inputs. In applications like distillation columns, tanks, reactors, boilers, etc., it can reduce installed costs by as much as 70% per point when compared to traditional single temperature inputs.

Roller screw jack actuators serve as practical alternatives to hydraulic or pneumatic systems for positioning applications in the steel and metalworking industries. These self-contained linear actuators require less power to raise and lower heavy loads quickly without overheating.

The server enables users to easily create large-scale centralized building control and monitoring systems that are controlled from a “single seat” workstation.

The –2AN option provides two independent outputs with a choice of Gross, Net, Rate-of-Change or mapped Total weight as both current (0-20 or 4-20mA) or voltage (0-5 or 0-10 VDC). The HI 3030 can hold up to two cards providing a total of four independent analog outputs.

JetPort 5604 series 4-port Serial to Redundant Ethernet Device Server supports RS232/422/485 serial interfaces. JetPort 5604i provides 4 serial interfaces with 2KV optical isolation protection. One IP address provides dual redundant paths to control four serial devices over Ethernet.

The ROUTE-MASTER Fieldbus System has been approved by Factory Mutual for use in the U.S. and Canada, clearing the way to apply it in hazardous areas. ROUTE-MASTER eliminates the crippling restrictions and extremely high cost of FISCO-based systems by allowing users to drive up to 350mA per segment and install up to 16 FOUNDATION Fieldbus instruments on a single fieldbus segment.

The software enables real-time operating systems, such as Wind River VxWorks, to run simultaneously with a general purpose operating system such as Linux on a single hardware platform while ensuring real-time behavior of the RTOS. It uses multi-core processors where each core may be assigned a separate operating system.
