Controller
NetDCU - Single Board Computer
Modern machines, production plants, measuring and controlling systems provide increasing amounts of increasingly complicated data, which has to be monitored and displayed. On the other hand, comprehensive settings are necessary for controlling these devices. F & S has developed an innovative solution for this application area.
The NetDCU is a sub-assembly, based on a powerful RISC-Processor (PowerPC, ARM, XScale, MIPS), for industrial use in the visualisation and controlling of complex systems.
