With over 80 different I/O boards available we're sure to have just what your application requires. An overview of these boards is also provided on the following pages, while detailed specifications can be obtained from the various I/O boards' datasheets. A custom (though fully COTS) I/O configuration is possible by specifying the UEINet with any of UEI's DNA-series I/O boards. The remainder of the chassis contains the I/O board. It's the brains of the UEINet and controls the unit's operations including the interface with the host Controller (and other Cubes), acting as the primary processor in stand-alone deployments as well as supervising the activity of the I/O board. The Core Module also provides the 8347 series PowerPC CPU, two USB 2.0 controller ports (active only with the UEIPAC option), indicator lights, timing/trigger interface, configuration ports, and internal power supply. The diagnostics port allows other computers (or a different thread on the host) to interrogate the I/O and system status of the Cube. The control port is the primary interface from the host PC. These may be configured as a control port and a diagnostic port or they may be teamed/bonded to allow redundant network access. The Core Module occupies the top portion of the chassis and provides two independent Gigabit Ethernet Network Interface Controllers (NICs) with separate IP addresses. Finally, there the UEINet Mod UPG allows the UEINet to run as a MODBUS TCP node and UEINet OPC-UA UPG. These Simulink modules may be run on a host PC, stand-alone on the UEINet, or in a SCADA mode where a stand-alone application runs but can be tuned by the host PC. Simulink users can use the UEINet SIM UPG option to enable the ability to build applications in Simulink. The UEINet PAC UPG option allows the unit to run as a stand-alone device running an application you write in either Linux or VxWorks operating systems. The "standard" UEINet is designed to run as a slave I/O unit controlled directly by a host PC. Each UEINet module consists of two primary subsections: a Core Module and an I/O board. UEINet chassis are 2.7" x 4.1" x 4" and are packed with power and flexibility. The PowerDNA Cube is ideally suited for a wide variety of industrial, aerospace, and laboratory data acquisition and control applications. It's flexibility allows you to configure one or more Cubes to match the specific I/O requirements of your application. The UEINet chassis is an extremely rugged, Gigabit Ethernet-based I/O interface. Based on UEI's popular PowerDNA Cube architecture, the new series is designed for applications requiring distributed I/O with a very small footprint. The UEINet chassis provides ultra-compact Ethernet based I/O module suitable for a wide variety of distributed data acquisition, control, and SCADA applications.
