VME and VPX health-monitoring test and measurement instruments introduced by Orbit
HAUPPAUGE, N.Y., 22 Oct. 2014. Orbit Electronics Group in Hauppauge, N.Y., is introducing two VME embedded computing system health monitors, two 6U VPX system health monitors, and a rear transition module (RTM) for each.
The system health test & measurement monitors have a, proprietary GUI; Ethernet, USB and RS 232 interfaces; set-up; data logging; field upgradable firmware; and data password protection.
VME HMC-A 6U system health monitors have 20 analog sensors (four onboard and 16 external), plus eight digital sensors. Voltage monitoring accepts eight inputs (+3.3, +5 , +12, and -12 volts DC, plus four user-defined positive voltages from 0 to +28 volts DC.
This unit provides expanded graphical user interfaces that enable design teams to quickly and easily establish a broad range of operating parameters.

VME HMC-B 6U system health monitors have nine analog sensors (one onboard and 8 external) plus eight digital sensors. Voltage monitoring accepts four inputs (+3.3, +5, +12, -12 volts DC). This unit provides expanded graphical user interfaces that enable design teams to quickly and easily establish a broad range of operating parameters.
VPX HMC-A 6U system health monitors have 20 analog sensors (for onboard and 16 external), plus eight digital sensors. Voltage monitoring accepts eight inputs (+3.3, +5, +12, and -12 volts DC, plus four user-defined positive voltages from 0 to +28 volts DC).

VME 6U rear transition module is designed as a companion board for the VME versions of Orbit HMC-A health monitors. It works d with any VME card to provide rear I/O in any VME system. Direct mapping from the P0 and P2 connectors to the RTM connectors allows signals to be brought off the backplane to interface to external equipment.
