Product Overview
The 9450 Industrial Computer System puts the power and versatility of an IBM
PC/AT™-compatible computer in a package that makes sense for the factory floor and
other harsh environments. The Xycom 9450 Industrial PC/AT Computer System features
an open architecture to meet a variety of applications that require both a powerful PC and
a durable industrial enclosure. The system integrates a computer card cage, mass storage,
display, keypads, and power supply in a truly industrial form factor.
The 9450 system includes a seven-slot passive backplane, an SVGA monitor, hard and
floppy disk drive facilities, and data entry and function keypads. The front panel is sealed
to NEMA 4/NEMA 12 standards, and the CRT is protected with an impact-resistant
Lexan shield. The open-architecture design accepts IBM PC-, XT-, or AT-compatible
cards.
The system comes with a 486, 5x86, or Pentium® computer installed (configuration de-
termined upon order). The processor board combines all the functions of a complete IBM
PC/AT-compatible computer on a single, industrially-hardened circuit board.
The system’s “works in a module” design allows easy access to the boards, switches,
power supply and disk drives. The module is easily removed by loosening three thumb
screws and sliding the module out.
