The NI PPC-2105 combines a 2 GHz Pentium 4 proccessor with a rugged 15 in. touch screen to create a human-machine interface (HMI) system for NI PACs. When configured with National Instruments LabVIEW software, it provides a complete HMI solution. It also can become a versatile measurement and automation workstation when configured with NI hardware such as industrial PCI-based DAQ boards or external USB-based DAQ modules. With National Instruments hardware and software platforms, you can address a wide range of measurement and automation applications. Rugged Industrial Design The PPC-2015 features a stainless steel chassis with an aluminum front panel. An integrated NEMA4/IP65-compliant touch screen display eliminates the cabling associated with external monitors, and its flat-panel technology conserves limited rack and panel space on the plant floor. The PPC-2015 touch screen display features tempered, antireflective glass that is also coated to minimize scratching. NEMA4/IP65 compliance ensures that the unit can meet applications with hose-down requirements. Unlike commercial PCs, the PPC-2015 features extended shock, vibration, and temperature ratings plus global safety standards and agency certifications. To address special application requirements, a rack-mount kit is available. Flexible Open Platform Unlike dedicated visualization platforms such as message displays and graphics terminals, the PPC-2015 features an open, extensible PC-based architecture fully compatible with National Instruments and commercial third-party hardware and software components. Featuring Windows XP, an internal PCI bus, and a choice of communication buses (serial, parallel, USB, PCMCIA, and Ethernet), it can be configured to address requirements beyond traditional HMI applications. When configured with the NI LabVIEW graphical programming environment and data acquisition, vision, motion, or PAC hardware, the PPC-2015 provides a complete, ready-to-run solution.
