This chapter provides an overview of the FieldPoint FP-20xx network
module and FieldPoint software.
Using the FP-20xx module with LabVIEW RT provides an easy-to-use
system for real-time embedded applications. When you run the LabVIEW
RT engine on an FP-20xx, the module can run applications without input
from the host computer. You can use a separate host PC running Windows
to control the FP-20xx through an Ethernet connection. Refer to the
LabVIEW RT User Manual for more information about the LabVIEW RT
engine.
Besides the Ethernet port, the FP-20xx has an RS-232 serial port that is
accessible through software. It also has LED indicators to communicate
status information and DIP switches that perform various functions.
Figure 1-1 shows where these features are located on the FP-20xx.
