Product Details:

NATIONAL INSTRUMENTS cFP-2200 is a high-performance Compact FieldPoint embedded real-time controller, equipped with 400 MHz PowerPC processor, running VxWorks real-time operating system for LabVIEW RT standalone industrial measurement and control. It is configured with 128 MB SDRAM and 128 MB onboard flash memory, integrated 10/100 Mbps auto-negotiation Ethernet port and one RS-232 serial port. It supports all cFP series I/O modules including analog input, analog output, digital I/O, thermocouple and RTD modules. The operating temperature range is -40℃ to 70℃, suitable for harsh industrial and mobile field environments. It integrates hardware watchdog and built-in self-diagnosis function, supports web server and FTP server for remote front panel access and file transfer. The power supply range is 11–30 VDC, supports panel mounting and rack mounting. This legacy industrial controller is end-of-life, available stock are refurbished replacement spares for vintage industrial automation systems.

This real-time controller can run standalone LabVIEW RT programs, suitable for high-speed data acquisition, complex control algorithms and unattended field data logging. Users can download embedded applications, configure network parameters and I/O mapping through NI MAX. It communicates with upper computer via TCP/IP, and can cooperate with multiple cFP I/O modules to build distributed control nodes. Compared with cFP-21xx series, it adopts PowerPC architecture, greatly improves computing performance and Ethernet throughput. It is a programmable RT PAC controller, not a simple communication gateway like cFP-1804 and cFP-1808.

It adopts compact industrial metal housing, powered by external 11–30 VDC power supply. Front panel with RJ45 Ethernet port, single RS-232 serial port and status LED indicators for power, run, fault and network. Hot swap of I/O modules is supported, power off is recommended when replacing the whole controller unit. The structure meets industrial shock, vibration and EMC requirements for cabinet and panel installation.

It is widely deployed in factory process control stations, oil field mobile monitoring systems, environmental monitoring racks and legacy Compact FieldPoint distributed control systems requiring high PowerPC computing performance and wide temperature range. Typical application scenarios include high-performance field control node replacement, old FieldPoint RT controller maintenance and vintage industrial control platform retrofit. Automation integrators select this NI cFP-2200 for its 400MHz PowerPC CPU,128MB SDRAM 128MB flash,10/100Mbps Ethernet,single RS232 port,-40~70℃ wide temperature.
