Introduction
Overview
The Moxa DA-682 Series of X86-based rackmount embedded computers are designed for
industrial data acquisition applications. The state-of-art 2 expansion module design provides
greater flexibility by allowing combinations of up to 16 RS-232/422/485 serial ports or up to 4+8
Ethernet ports. This friendly design gives users the advantage of being able to swap out modules
quickly and easily. Additional expansion modules will be available soon to provide even greater
flexibility.
The DA-682’s main operating system is based on the Intel Celeron M processor and 915GME
chipset, which supports standard X86 VGA, USB, PS/2 keyboard/mouse, 4 Gigabit LAN ports,
and IDE/SATA disk interface. In addition, the DA-682 has a CompactFlash socket and comes with
Linux, WinCE 6.0, Windows XP Embedded pre-installed. Programmers will find the full-function
development kit a great benefit for developing software and building reliable communication
applications.
The housing is a standard 2U, 19-inch wide rack-mounted rugged enclosure. This robust,
rack-mountable design provides the hardened protection needed for industrial environment
applications.
