Computers handle hazardous locations
ePC industrial computers are equipped with 100-240V AC input power supplies, have NEMA 4/4x/12 panel-mountable front panels and are less than 75mm deep when panel mounted.
Fanless embedded PCs suit varied applications
The EP1016 offers a 10.4in, 256k colour SVGA resistive touch screen display with 800 x 600 resolution under an IP65 aluminium front bezel.
Applications then run concurrent with Windows NT so that the real-time application is unaffected by the operating system.
HyperKernel is currently used in thousands of applications requiring speed, predictability and reliability, including industrial control, telecommunications, transportation control, medical systems, and consumer electronics.
The evaluation version of HyperKernel is a complete operational product including runtime manager, hardware drivers, API libraries, include files, sample code, test programs, online help, and the HyperKernel Reference Manual.
Applications compiled with the evaluation version will run for 30 minutes at a time so that developers can test their application and decide whether HyperKernel is right for them.
Developers can then purchase runtime licenses that will turn the already completed code into a fully licensed product.
Key features of HyperKernel include preemptive scheduling, multi-threaded, high-speed timers (1 microsecond precision, 20 microsecond minimum tick size), interrupt handlers for low latency (sub 50 microsecond), full compatibility with Microsoft Windows user applications, and no modification to the Microsoft Windows NT Hardware Abstraction Layer.
Nematron Corporation has been setting the standard in PC-based control since the birth of the industry.
Nematron is the only company that designs and manufactures a complete and proven PC-based control solution, with customers in nearly every manufacturing industry.
