FP-1601
National Instruments FieldPoint Network Module

The FieldPoint FP-1601 network module connects a 10/100 Ethernet network to FieldPoint I/O modules. Because the FP-1601 is an Ethernet device, the maximum number of FP-1601 modules you install on your Ethernet network is determined by your network topology. Each FP-1601 can support up to nine I/O modules.

A FieldPoint bank consists of at least one network module, one or more terminal bases, and one or more I/O modules. Each FP-1601 can support up
to nine I/O modules. You can access each bank by an unlimited number of host computers or LabVIEW RT enabled devices (such as FP-2000/2010 or PXI chassis). The maximum number of FP-1601 network modules that you can install on your Ethernet network is limited only by your network topology. With Ethernet, you can use an unlimited number of FieldPoint banks.

The FP-1601 network module connects directly to a 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps Ethernet network. The module auto-detects the speed of the connection and configures itself accordingly.
