Selecting an Environment for the FieldPoint System
NI FieldPoint is designed for static installations. Static installations are
installations that do not move and are not subject to shock and vibration.
NI recommends Compact FieldPoint for mobile systems and for locations that
are subject to shock and vibration.
The FieldPoint system should be mounted inside an instrumentation cabinet
such as the FP-ENC1. NI offers two versions of the FP-ENC1, one with a solid
metal door and one with a polycarbonate window. Both versions include a DIN
rail for mounting the FieldPoint system inside the cabinet.
