United Electronic Industries (UEI) has introduced the DNR-6-1G six-slot portable Ethernet I/O chassis.
The DNR-6-1G offers all the features of the DNR-12-1G Racktangle 12-slot front-access 3U chassis, but in a half rack-width configuration.
As the DNR-6-1G is electrically compatible with the cube form factors, all of the I/O boards available in the cube form factor are also available for the DNR-6-1G.
More than 30 I/O modules are available.
The Halfrack's six I/O slots provide up to: 150 analogue inputs, 192 analogue outputs, 288 digital I/O, 48 counter or quadrature channels, 72 ARINC-429 channels and/or 24 Serial or CAN-bus ports.
Software for the DNR-6-1G is provided in the UEIDAQ Framework.
The framework provides a comprehensive, easy-to-use API that supports all popular programming and operating systems such as Windows, Vista, Linux and most real-time operating systems (for example QNX, RTX and RT Linux).
The board is supported by Labview, Matlab/Simulink, Dasylab, or any application that supports ActiveX, OPC or Modbus TCP control.
