National Instruments PXI-8176 PXI Embedded Controller
The PXI-8176 (Part Numbers: 778468-00, 778468-01, 778468-02, 187317K-012 and 187317D-612) is a Pentium III Embedded Controller for CompactPCI and PXI. This high-performing Embedded Controller can be combined with a PXI chassis, such as the PXI-1020 or PXI-1025 for a small PC platform ideal for data acquisition. The NI PXI-8176 Controller has an internal USB-to-PS/2 adapter, which is activated automatically when the Controller is installed in the PXI-1020 or PXI-1025 Chassis. The PXI 8176 is one of the best performing models of the NI 8171 Series with a 1.26 GHz Pentium III processor, a GPIB interface, and up to 512 KB advanced transfer cache.
Several features of this model include PXI slots for measurement modules, a hard drive and floppy drive, two USB ports, and a VGA with dynamic memory video technology (DMVT). With DMVT, the result is stellar graphics and memory performance via Direct AGP and extremely efficient memory. The device is equipped with 1 system slot and 3 controller expansion slots. The NI PXI 8176 Embedded Controller can be used with the NI-DAQ driver software provided by National Instruments, and software packages/application development environments (ADES) such as the NI LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, Measurement Studio software, and NI-VISA.
The National Instruments PXI-8176 has 128 MB of SDRAM, but this can be upgraded to 256 MB. This Embedded Controller has 1280 x 1024 resolution at 24-bit color and 1600 x 1200 resolution at 256 colors, 44 W maximum power, and requires one system slot and three controller expansion slots. This model also has several accessories available for purchase at an additional cost, including: an external USB CD-ROM for software installation and upgrades, an IEEE 1284 parallel port adapter cable, and a parallel port converter cable to modify from a Type C connector to a DB-25 connector. The part numbers for these accessories can be found in the NI PXI-8176 manual, which is available for download on the apexwaves.com website. The device weighs 2.7 lbs., with the dimensions: 3.2 x 5.1 x 8.5 in.
PXI-8176 Obsolete Status has been announced by National Instruments, but this controller will still be available for purchase and repairs by Apex Waves.
