National Instruments cFP-2020 Compact FieldPoint LabVIEW Real-Time/Ethernet Controller

The NI cFP-2020 (Part number: 777317-2020) has an Ethernet port, four serial ports, removable CompactFlash storage, and broadened DRAM (32 MB) memory for advanced applications. Additionally, it has an internal nonvolatile storage of up to 64 MB. The four serial ports on this model include three RS-232, DTE ports and one RS-485, DTE port. Specialists and researchers usually utilize the cFP-2020 controllers in applications that require industrial grade quality, such as stand-alone data logging, analog processing and discrete control frameworks, executing PID control loops, working valves and engines, taking estimations, performing analysis and simulation in real time, recording data, and communicating through serial, phone, and Ethernet interfaces. The device is equipped with 1 Ethernet port with a 10BaseT and 100BaseTX Ethernet network interface. Once sent, the controller can communicate with another cFP-2020, with FieldPoint cFP-2020 shrewd controllers, or with non-keen system interfaces, such as a FP-16xx and FP-1000. Also, the cFP-2020 interface naturally distributes I/O estimations to a Windows-based PC running FieldPoint Explorer, LabVIEW, the LabVIEW Datalogging and Supervisory Control Module (LabVIEW DSC), LabWindows/CVI, Lookout, or the application programming customer for OLE for process control (OPC) of the user’s decision. It is additionally effectively coordinated with existing legacy frameworks or programmable logic controller (PLC) frameworks. It is important to keep in mind the NI cFP-2020 supports LabVIEW Real-Time 8.5.1 and previous versions.

By utilizing LabVIEW Real-Time, the user can develop capable data logging, control, and estimation frameworks on their PC and effortlessly incorporate their application into the NI cFP-2020 intelligent controller for reliable deployment, whether distributed or stand-alone. The user can integrate all the intelligence, advanced control, and analysis abilities of LabVIEW into a measured and minimal package proper for industrial environments. Each cFP 2020 on the user’s system requires an 11– 30 VDC control supply. NI prescribes the PS-5 power supply for most Compact FieldPoint applications. The PS-5 gives 24 V at 120 W and is intended to be mounted on a DIN rail.

The NI device weighs 11.5 oz. It has recommended operating and storage temperature ranges of –25 to 60 °C and –40 to 85 °C respectively.
