The Exfo IQS-510P-N10-G1 is an Intelligent Test System Control Unit designed for industrial test environments, featuring 10 module slots and built on industrial PC architecture. This platform provides centralized control and data acquisition for modular test instrumentation, with native support for remote automation and integration into complex test systems.
## Technical Specifications
• **Processor:** Industrial Pentium III
• **Memory:** 256 MB standard (N10 designation); 512 MB available with N12 option
• **Operating System:** Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional
• **Software:** IQS-Manager v1.4.0.173
• **Module Slots:** 10 single-slot positions
• **Operating Temperature:** 0 °C to 40 °C
• **Storage Temperature:** -40 °C to 70 °C
• **Relative Humidity:** 0 % to 80 % non-condensing at 40 °C
## Key Features
**Scalability & Expansion:** The IQS-510P-N10-G1 scales to control up to 100 single-slot modules through integration with up to nine IQS-510E Expansion Units via EXFO Bus II interconnect.
**Connectivity:** Standard 10/100 Base-T Ethernet and RS-232 serial interfaces enable network deployment and legacy system integration. Optional IEEE 488.2 GPIB support accommodates existing instrument ecosystems.
**Remote Control & Automation:** Native ActiveX/DCOM and SCPI command support enables programmatic control via LabVIEW drivers or custom application development. The controller can manage other IQS-500 controllers over Ethernet networks and function as a GPIB or RS-232 system manager.
**Physical Options:** Optional 1U rack-mountable screen/keyboard combo (GP-3005) enables space-efficient deployment in standard 19-inch racks.
## Compatibility & Integration
Fully compatible with IQS-510E Expansion Units and single-slot modules. Backward-compatible with IQ-200 Optical Test System modules on the IQS-500 platform. Supports LabVIEW integration via ActiveX/DCOM (remote) and ActiveX/COM (local) libraries with SCPI protocol support for vendor-neutral automation.
