Cincinnati, Ohio (March 24, 2004) – Advantech Corporation, Industrial Automation Group is pleased to introduce the UNO-2160, an embedded, application ready platform, running a Celeron 400 MHz processor with two PC/104 expansion slots and powerful backup features. The UNO-2160 can be used as a controller, communication gateway or thin client running Windows®CE.NET 4.2 or Windows XP Embedded.

At less than two inches tall (50mm), 10 inches wide (255mm) and less than six inches wide (152mm), the UNO-2160 has a small footprint ideal for applications in which space is at a premium.

New feature: SRAM memory backup
The 512 KB of battery backed SRAM ensures the safety of critical data. With an LED alarm, it is also monitors the battery, making sure it’s charged. An engineer can write software applications without being concerned that system crashes might erase critical data from memory.

A Powerful Combination for Maximum System Reliability
The combination of a battery backup for the SRAM and a watchdog timer means maximum system reliability. With process history stored in SRAM, the watchdog timer will reboot the system in the event of a crash and the process software will use the history stored in SRAM to continue the process at the correct step. This automatic restart and memory storage of running system processes ensures minimum interruption.

Application ready platform
The UNO-2160 provides two embedded Operating Systems, Windows®CE.NET 4.2 and Windows XP Embedded OS, which offer a pre-configured image with optimized onboard device drivers. Windows XP Embedded delivers the power of the Windows operating system in componentized form. Applications can be seamlessly integrated into Windows XP Embedded.
Advantech is pleased to continue meeting the customer demand for high performance, cost efficient controllers that offer powerful backup features.
