1. Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Moxa UC-8410/8416/8418/8430 RISC-based ready-to-run embedded computer.
The UC-8410/8416/8418/8430 feature 8 RS-232/422/485 serial ports, 3 10/100 Mbps Ethernet ports, digital
input and digital output channels, switching ports, and CompactFlash and USB ports for adding additional
memory. All of these features make the UC-8410/8416/8418/8430 ideal for your embedded applications. Note,
too, that the UC-8430 comes with 2 VGA outputs, offering dual display connections for field site monitoring.
This manual introduces the hardware of the UC-8410/8416/8418/8430 embedded computers. After a brief
introduction of the hardware features, we focus on installing and configuring the hardware.
The following topics are covered in this chapter:

UC-8410/8416/8418/8430 Hardware User's Manual Introduction

Overview
The UC-8410/8416/8418/8430 features 8 RS-232/422/485 serial ports, 3 10/100 Mbps Ethernet ports, 4
digital input channels and 4 digital output channels (12 digital input channels and 12 digital output channels for
the UC-8418), 8 10/100 Mbps switch ports (UC-8416 only), a CompactFlash slot for flash disk expansion, and
2 USB ports (6 USB ports for UC-8430) for adding additional memory (such as a USB flash drive).
The UC-8410/8416/8418/8430 uses an Intel XScale IXP435 533 MHz RISC CPU. Unlike the X86 CPU, which
uses a CISC design, the IXP435's RISC design architecture and modern semiconductor technology provide the
UC-8410/8416/8418/8430 with a powerful computing engine and communication functions, but without
generating a lot of heat. The built-in 16 MB (32 MB for UC-8430) NOR Flash ROM and 256 MB SDRAM give you
enough memory to run your application software directly on the UC-8410/8416/8418/8430. Since the dual LAN
ports are built into the IXP435 CPU, the UC-8410/8416/8418/8430 is good solution for network security
applications.
