The new 4 slot cRIO-FRCII

[mesamb1]

There is an existing thread on this:
http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...ad.php?t=94889
It includes pictures(the real new CRIO isnt listed on the NI website since it is custom for first), and discussion on the tech specs on the new CRIO as obtained from the NI people at Championship. The major new info we have is when it will be sold.

I believe this is the base model of the the FRC-II, and the 9074 was the base model of the eight slot.

A clarification to other posts -- the controllers are essentially OEM specialized versions of a standard NI cRIO. They are not custom designed. The custom parts are the PD and breakouts.

Greg,

Any knowledge on whether the cRIO-FRC II will interface with the 2011 FMS? Our cRIO bit it at Peachtree, and we have at least one more date with the FMS this year.

There are no known incompatibilities.

Have you sent the 8-slot in for repair? I'm not sure what it bit, but it can most likely be fixed.

I got very, very excited about this when it was announced.

We are planning on getting one in the fall. Although the extended RAM is something we don't need, having a smaller base will be much nicer. Plus one of our 2 current C-Rios got a little wet in transit and although it works, it hasn't been up to par with the dry one.

All I can also say is that made the decision for us we're upgrading to a trailer from just using tarps.
