The Vector is built on a universal platform using hardware and software that is common to the entire product family. This feature increases reliability, reduces downtime and significantly lowers overall ownership costs. A key component of every Vector is the powerful Master Control Unit (MCU).
The Master Control Unit (MCU) houses the CPU and hard drive and hosts an extensive array of I/O connections. The 166 MHz MCU features two serial communication ports, a parallel printer port, a USB connector, and Ethernet connector, a VGA connector, as well as connectors for an external mouse and keyboard as standard features.
The MCU is outfitted with the Windows XP™ operating system, further contributing to the extreme power and flexibility of the Vector software.
The MCU supports a variety of communication protocols including Ethernet, TCP/IP, Modbus, Interbus-S, and Profibus.
