National Instruments 777317-2200 Controller for Compact FieldPoint 

The part number 777317-2200 from National Instruments is the identifying part number for the cFP-2200 Controller for Compact FieldPoint. The controller features 128 MB of storage, 128 MB DRAM, and a 400 MHz processor. It includes a serial port, allowing it to connect to various serial devices such as sensors or display units. Upon powering up, the 777317-2200 Controller performs a self-test (POST) and can be set to automatically run a standalone, embedded LabVIEW Real-Time application. This controller keeps precise time and date using its high-precision, internal real-time clock at startup, which also helps correct any drift in the system clock. It is equipped with six user-configurable DIP switches for tailored operation, enabling functions like no application mode, IP reset, console output, safe mode, and two user-defined settings.

For remote management, the 777317-2200 Controller supports accessing multiple remote front panels via a web browser or LabVIEW, facilitating remote control and monitoring of any embedded VI (Virtual Instrument). Network-wise, the 777317-2200 Controller is fully compatible with IEEE 802.3 standards, supporting auto-negotiating communication speeds of 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps, and can handle cable lengths up to 100 meters per segment. The unit can be powered by an 11 to 30 VDC external power supply and offers expansive options through the use of a cFP-1808 expansion chassis for systems requiring more than eight modules, enabling I/O expansion via serial or Ethernet connections. 

The front panel features a RJ-45 Ethernet port for network connections and a secondary Ethernet port for private network links. The controller uses FieldPoint software version 6.0.1 or newer and requires LabVIEW Real-Time Module 8.5.1 or newer for application development. Additionally, it includes an RS-232 DTE serial port equipped with a DB-9 connector for further external connectivity. 

The controller must be operated in an environment with a temperature between 0 to 55 degrees Celsius and has a humidity rating of 15 % to 85 %. The controller does not feature an International protection rating and hence is required to be installed in a clean environment to avoid dust and moisture from degrading the performance and the internals of the controller.
