Offering an extended -20 to 60° C operating temperature range for harsh industrial applications, NI TPC-2206 and TPC-2212 touch panel computers from National Instruments are based on the 1.33 GHz Intel Atom processor. They feature 4 GB solid state drives for reliable operation in extended vibration environments and Windows Embedded OS for long-term deployment and support. Also included are a 1 GB of RAM, two gigabit Ethernet ports and LED backlight technology to maintain screen brightness across the range of temperatures. Combined with NI LabVIEW software, the computers provide a rugged high-performance interface for monitoring and control applications. They can work with a variety of hardware including NI CompactRIO, PXI, NI Smart Cameras, NI Embedded Vision Systems and other third-party industrial devices. Engineers can develop advanced and intuitive HMI applications with the LabVIEW graphical development environment, which they use to communicate with their hardware through standard communication methods such as TCP, OPC, USB, Modbus, Ethernet/IP and many more. LabVIEW provides easy network deployment, prebuilt template applications and navigation controls for building complex multiscreen interfaces. Engineers also gain programmatic control of advanced OS features such as Enhanced Write Filters and Hibernate Once/Resume Many (HORM).
