National Instruments cRIO-9022 CompactRIO Controller

The cRIO-9022 (Part number: 780718-01) is a CompactRIO Controller designed by National Instruments. This model is a member of the CompactRIO PAC (programmable automation controller) platform. It is structured with an industrial 533 MHz Free-scale MPC8347 processor and is workable for deterministic and consistent real-time applications. The cRIO 9022 comes with 256 MB of DDR2 RAM and is embedded with 2 GB nonvolatile storage. This can be used for storing programs and logging data. The Controller comes with a fault-tolerant file system. This system provides enhanced reliability for the data-classification applications. The NI cRIO-9022 meets the EMC standards for electrical equipment. These standards are essential for monitoring, control, and lab use. These standards provide sensible protection from risky intrusions.

The NI cRIO 9022 needs a 35 VDC external power supply to filter and control the provided power. It also provides power for the C Series modules. The Controller has a main power input, V1, and a subordinate power input, V2. It pulls the power from the supply with the higher voltage. The NI cRIO-9022 is structured with one layer of reverse-voltage protection. This layer ensures the power supply is powered off and helps install the ferrite on the positive and negative leads of the supply.

The NI cRIO-9022 system clock synchronizes with the internal high-precision real-time clock during startup. This change provides time-stamp data to the Controller. The internal RTC is used to correct the drift of the system clock. The cRIO 9022 comes with a USB port to support external storage devices. It also includes an RS-232 serial port. This port helps connect the input or display devices. It is also embedded with two Ethernet ports.
