iP-8441

The iPAC-8000 is the compact size PAC(Programmable Automation Controller). It supports various connectivity including Dual 10/100 Base-TX Ethernet ports, one RS-232/485 port, one RS-485 port and two RS-232 ports, and 4/8 slots for high performance Parallel-type I/O modules (High profile I-8K series) and Serial-type I/O modules (High profile I-87K series), etc.

The iPAC-8000 is designed for industrial monitoring, measurement and controlling. It has redundant power inputs with 1 kV isolation from noise and surges, and a wide range of operating temperature (-25 ~ +75 °C). It can work in the harsh and rough environment.

Features

80186 CPU (16bit and 80MHz) with 512KB Flash and 512KB SRAM The 512KB flash is for storing files, and the 512KB SRAM is for running programs. 64-bit Hardware Serial Number The 64-bit hardware serial number is unique and individual. Every serial number of iPAC-8000 is different. Users can add a checking mechanism to their AP to prevent software from pirating. Dual Battery Backup SRAM (512KB) To maintain important data while power off, non-volatile memory is the ideal design. The iPAC-8000 equips a 512KB SRAM with two Li-batteries to maintain data while power off. The two Li-batteries can continually supply power to the 512KB SRAM to retain the data for 5 years; and the dual-battery design can avoid data lost while replacing a new battery. I/O Module Hot Swap Ability The iPAC-8000 features hot swap which means that there is no need to power off the iPAC-8000 for replacing modules. And the OS provides a function sending plug-in and removing messages to user_s applications. Using this feature, users can design its own plug-and-play applications. Rich I/O Expansion Ability (RS-232/485, Ethernet, FRnet, CAN) Beside the local I/O slots, iPAC-8000 also equips several RS-232/485 ports, two Ethernet ports to connect serial I/O and Ethernet I/O. And with FRnet and CAN communication module in local slot, FRnet I/O and CAN devices are easy to be integrated. Dual Ethernet Ports iPAC-8000 provides two Ethernet ports. The two Ethernet ports can be used to implement redundant Ethernet communication and separate Ethernet communication (one for global Internet, one for private Ethernet). Redundant Power Input To prevent theiPAC-8000 from failing by the power loss, the power module is designed with two inputs. The iPAC-8000 can keep working even one power input fails, and mean while there is a relay output for informing the power failure. Ventilated Housing Design Allows Operation Between -25? ~ +75? Each iPAC-8000 is housed in a plastic-based box with a column-like ventilator that can help to cool the working environment inside the box and allow the iPAC-8000 operating between -25°C and +75°C.
