Even within the same industry, the needs and requirements of hardware differ considerably from operation to operation. That is why noax Technologies AG has equipped its industrial hardware with a microcontroller (MCU) and NSetup software. This combination offers IT administrators multiple advantages. Administrators have the option to configure numerous parameters of their noax industrial PCs to meet the needs of their company. For example, settings for uninterrupted power supply (UPS), power functions, PCIe configuration, settings for touch and backlight control, deactivation of front USB port, or program special function keys.
The MCU and NSetup also monitor important system functions thus increasing the operational stability of the noax hardware. NSetup can be used to set various functions of the industrial PCs that are controlled by the MCU. The microcontroller is able to determine if an active parameter is outside of its specified limits which will be indicated by flashing LEDs on the front of the control panel.
