Introduction

The V2406-24I computers come with 4 RS-232/422/485 serial ports,
making them ideal for connecting a wide range of serial devices,
and the dual 10/100 Mbps Ethernet ports offer a reliable solution
for network redundancy, promising continuous operation for data
communication and management. As an added convenience, the
V2406-24I computers have 6 DIs and 2 DOs for connecting digital
input/output devices.

CompactFlash and USB sockets provide the V2406-24I computers
with the reliability needed for industrial applications that require data
buffering and storage expansion. In addition, these computers are
fully compliant with the EN 50155 standard, making them an excellent

choice for rail and industrial applications.

Pre-installed with Linux or Windows Embedded Standard 2009,
the V2406-24I computers provide programmers with a friendly
environment for developing sophisticated, bug-free application
software at a low cost.

Models with conformal coating are also available to offer reliable
operation during harsh environments for a variety of industrial
applications.
