Description:

Using high-reliability components, a wide variety of hardware and software options are available in the tiny Intel x86 based CANatomBOX™. 512 MB DDR2 SO-DIMM is sufficient to control Windows XPTM or Windows XPembeddedTM operating systems, while 2 GB industrial grade CompactFlash card storage can easily be upgraded. Power consumption is low, so reliable cooling is completely passive. Wall-mounted, CANatomBOX™ can be placed almost anywhere, even in the tightest locations. With standard interfaces of two 10/100BaseT Ethernet, two USB2.0, one RS232, VGA and two CANbus, this versatile controller system has remarkably small dimensions. Alternatively, CANatomBOX™ is available with two additional PCI slots, for further standardized expansion boards. The widely-used operating system Windows XP or XPembedded comes standard, while other choices are possible and can be selected to perfectly match customer needs. Every CANatomBOX™ system is 100% tested and is customizable even in small quantities, with a guaranteed lifetime availability of 5 years – essential for medical and military equipment design. A wide range of operating systems is offered, with design-team hardware and software support. If required, customer-specific software can be preloaded.
