Chapter 1 Introduction

Thank you for purchasing the Moxa IA261/262 RISC-based industrial ready-to-run embedded
computer. This product’s features include four RS-232/422/485 serial ports (2 ports for IA262),
dual 10/100 Mbps Ethernet ports, 8 digital input channels and 8 digital output channe ls, VGA
output, a CompactFlash socket for mass storage expansion, and USB ports for keyboard/mouse
connection or mass storage disk expansion, IA 262 also supports dual CAN ports for industrial
automation devices connection. These features make the IA261/262 series ideal for your
embedded applications, especially the environment in industrial environment such as SCADA,
manufacturing automation and other industrial applications.

This manual introduces the hardware of the IA261/262 series embedded computers. After a brief

IA261/262 Hardware User’s Manual Introduction

Overview

The IA261/IA262 embedded computers, which are ideal for industrial automation applications,
feature 4 RS-232/422/485 serial ports (2 for IA262), dual CAN ports (IA262 only), dual Ethernet
ports, 8 digital input channels, 8 digital output channels, VGA output, 2 USB hosts and a
CompactFlash socket in a compact, industrial-strength aluminum rugged casing. The DIN-Rail
vertical form factor makes the IA261/262 a cost effective solution for installation in small cabinets.
This space-saving solution also facilitates easy wiring, and is the best choice of front-end
embedded controller for industrial applications.

Due to its VGA output capability, IA261/262 is not only play the role of protocol conversion or
data acquisition for the field site devices, it is also suitable for SCADA system in industrial
applications such as manufacturing automation, production line process monitoring, mining
automation etc to be the operator interface terminal at the field site with VGA monitor and proper
HMI software.

The diversified peripherals, which include RS-232/422/485, CANbus, digital input and digital
output, are all designed for industrial environments. The embedded 2 KV isolation protection for
serial signals and CANbus ports, and enhanced 3 KV protection for digital I/O, make the
IA261/262 the most reliable solution of this type for harsh, industrial environments. Since the dual
LAN ports are built, the IA261/262 is an ideal communication platform for Network Redundant
applications.

In addition to the standard model, the IA261/IA262 also comes in wide temperature models. The
IA261-T and IA262-T have an operating temperature range of -40 to 75°C, and are appropriate for
harsh industrial automation environments. The industrial mechanism of the IA261/IA262 design
provides robust, reliable computing. Due to the RISC-based architecture, the IA261/IA262 will not
generate too much heat while being used. The high communication performance and fanless
design make the IA261/IA262 ideal for industrial automation environments.

The IA261/262 embedded computers use a Cirrus Logic EP9315 ARM9, 32-bit, 200 MHz RISC
CPU. Unlike the X86 CPU, which uses a CISC design, the RISC design architecture and modern
semiconductor technology provide the IA261/262 with a powerful computing engine and
communication functions, but without generating a lot of heat. The built-in 32 MB NOR Flash
ROM and 128 MB SDRAM give you enough memory to run your application software directly on
the IA261/262.

The IA261/262 runs Linux or WinCE 6.0 (pr e-i nst a l l ed), providing a friendly environm ent for
developing sophisticated application software. Moxa’s quality software support makes
programming and developing bug-free code easier, quicker, and less expensive.
