Embedded Computers for Equipment Gateways

Plan a local computing node between equipment and application software. Compare documented networking, storage and mounting options before choosing an embedded computer.

Embedded Computers for Equipment Gateways

Equipment data and local computing

An equipment gateway can collect device data, run local application software and pass selected information to another system. The required protocols, drivers and software remain project specific. Start with a list of connected devices and the data they need to exchange.

Embedded computer options

Explore the industrial computer range and compare the VEC-3588, DEC-3588 and VPC-3588 model pages. Check each model’s documented network ports, serial interfaces, expansion, power input and operating system options. Models in the same processor family can have different interfaces and enclosures.

Installation

Confirm cabinet space, cable access, power supply, heat dissipation and the expected environment. Assess isolation and protection requirements at system level. Validate the selected hardware, drivers and application together; integration covers electrical interfaces, drivers and application software.

Project requirements

Project requirements

Share the model under consideration, connected device list, interface types, operating system, storage needs, installation drawing and expected quantity. Ask for the current configuration documents and agree how the application will be tested.
