DA-662A Series Hardware
Introduction
1-2
Overview
The DA-662A series are RISC-based, ready-to-run embedded computers designed for industrial data
acquisition applications. Each model has 8 or 16 RS-232/422/485 serial ports, and 2 USB hosts based on the
Moxa Macro 500 MHz communication processor. The DA-662A series has 4 Ethernet ports. The casing is a
standard 1U, 19-inch wide rack-mounted rugged enclosure. The robust, rack-mountable mechanism design
provides the hardened protection needed for industrial environment applications, and makes it easy for users
to install the DA-662A series on a standard 19-inch rack. The DA-662A series are ideal for applications that
require a distributed embedded technology, such as SCADA systems, plant floor automation, and power
electricity monitoring applications.
The DA-662A series are suitable for IT control room applications, the critical assets used in the control and
automation system of industrial plant floors, and in electric power utility substations. The DA-662A series can
accept a wide range of power inputs (from 100 to 240V), which means that they can be connected to AC power
lines. Because of the no hard disk, fan-less, energy efficient design, the DA-662A series minimize heat
generation, can operate around the clock, year in and year out, in heavy duty, harsh industrial environments,
delivering the kind of reliable computing power expected of a multifunctional controller.
Choose from models of the DA-662A series that come pre-installed with the open-standard Linux OS. The
built-in SDK makes program development easy by allowing you to follow the common programming
procedures used on a standard PC. All of the software you develop for your own applications can be stored in
the onboard Flash memory. The DA-662A series embedded computers are ideal for creating control systems
with distributed architecture that are based on embedded technologies. Typical applications include SCADA
systems, plant floor automation, and power electricity monitoring.
