Model 10KN8A

Controlled by an advanced "10BCP" Central Processor, this versatile "B-sized" mainframe features an internal 12-inch active matrix TFT (Thin Film Transistor) color display (see Specifications).

Like all "B-sized" mainframes, the 10KN8A supports multiple individually configurable large-scale data displays in vivid color (like the one shown below), with adjustable update rates from 1 to 60 Hz. VGA-resolution displays may be instantly composed, edited, and saved by the operator, in the field, via simple "word-processor" keyboard entries—even while the measured test or process is running. Up to 100 unique non-scrolling page formats may be created and stored for any given mainframe.

VGA output can be transmitted directly to any external monitor capable of receiving it. VGA/SVGA input can be received directly from any external VGA ANALOG CARD. You can toggle between the display of "internal" System 10 video page formats and externally-sourced video screens by a simple keystroke or on application of a simple mnemonic command. Click here for more details on System 10 large-scale video capabilities, including run-time composition and storage of up to 100 custom "video pages."

Two "V-card" slots for optional video-related cards are provided. This allows for formatted hard-copy output and/or high-speed bargraph display, if desired.

The Model 10KN8A contains two slots for user-selected "B-cards." This lets you configure your System 10 for such functions as

	Programmable logic I/O for process control
	High-density "history" storage with real-time playback and SPC
	Auxiliary computer interfacing
	Satellite network hosting

Eight "A-card" slots for user-selected signal conditioners and special-function cards are also provided.

The following diagrams show the basic physical layout of the 10KN8A mainframe.
