Product Details:

NATIONAL INSTRUMENTS cFP-2210 is a high-performance Compact FieldPoint embedded real-time controller with 400 MHz PowerPC processor, running VxWorks real-time operating system for LabVIEW RT standalone industrial measurement and control. It is equipped with 256 MB SDRAM and 128 MB onboard flash memory, integrated 10/100 Mbps auto-negotiation Ethernet port and two independent RS-232 serial ports. 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 complex control algorithms, multi-serial instrument communication and high-capacity 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-2200, it adds one extra RS232 channel and larger SDRAM, which is convenient for connecting multiple serial sensors and devices. 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, dual RS-232 serial ports 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 performance, dual serial ports and large memory. Typical application scenarios include multi-serial field control node replacement, old FieldPoint RT controller maintenance and vintage industrial control platform retrofit. Automation integrators select this NI cFP-2210 for its 400MHz PowerPC CPU,256MB SDRAM 128MB flash,10/100Mbps Ethernet,dual RS232 ports,-40~70℃ wide temperature.
