Relio R1 Industrial Computer – Compact, Rugged, and Configurable

The Relio™ R1 compact rugged industrial computer is designed for applications that demand powerful processing capabilities, wide operating temperature range, and DIN Rail compatibility, while designed to exceed military specifications for shock & vibration.

Sealevel takes COM Express architecture to extremes with the Relio R1 industrial computer, featuring your choice of quad, dual and single-core Intel Atom® (Bay Trail) processor with up to 8 GB of DDR3L RAM, or powerful dual-core Intel Core i5-6300U (Skylake-U) processor with 8 GB of DDR4 RAM, in a virtually indestructible, DIN Rail compatible enclosure. The R1 is Sealevel’s most rugged computer to date, designed to exceed military specifications for shock and vibration.

The Relio R1 achieves an impressive operating temperature range of -40°C to 71°C, while requiring low power consumption from your 18-36 VDC source. Standard features include two software-selectable serial ports, dual Gigabit Ethernet, four SeaLATCH™ locking USB ports, digital and analog video interfaces. The 802.11 b/g/n dual-band wireless network option enables convenient connectivity at data rates up to 300 Mbps. CAN bus 2.0b and GPS options are also available.

Inside the R1, a CFast SATA II card slot provides solid-state storage that can be preloaded with 32-bit or 64-bit versions of Microsoft Windows or Linux operating systems. The optional, rugged DIN Rail bracket allows secure mounting to 35mm DIN Rail located inside panels, vehicles or even heavy equipment and drilling rigs. The optional VESA bracket supports 75mm or 100mm installation to industrial and commercial displays, and also doubles as a wall or table mount. The system is perfect for harsh industrial environments including military, oil & gas, transportation, energy, and process control applications.

The COM Express design allows easy technology migration as processor technology evolves. As a result, the COM module can be upgraded to increase performance over the life of the application.

Relio R4 Configurable 1U Rackmount Industrial Computer

The Relio R4 is a fanless, solid-state 1U rackmount computer with no internal cables. The system is ideal for industrial and commercial applications that demand high reliability, I/O expansion, scalable processing, and a long product life cycle.

The R4 builds upon the advantages of the COM Express architecture and features your choice of Intel dual-core processor (Atom N2800 1.8 GHz; Core i3 1.6 GHz; Core i7 1.7 GHz). The Core i3 and Core i7 processor options add support for 64-bit operating systems and up to 16 GB RAM. The rackmount system requires low power consumption while operating fanless over a wide operating temperature range of 0°C to 50°C. A wealth of standard I/O features include dual Gigabit Ethernet, five USB 2.0 ports, three serial ports, DisplayPort video, and audio interfaces. The R4 operates with no moving parts or internal cables, eliminating the most common causes of failure.

Featuring two SeaRAQ™ I/O expansion slots, the Relio R4 offers extra expansion capabilities and supports a variety of real-world analog I/O configurations such as A/D inputs, 4-20mA outputs, 0-20mA inputs, thermocouples, and RTD inputs. Optically isolated inputs, relay outputs, and additional serial interfaces are also available.

The Relio R4 operates from your choice of 2.5″ SATA solid-state disk (SSD) that can be integrated and preloaded with Microsoft Windows or Linux operating systems. Operating from solid-state disk, the system is perfect for industrial and commercial rackmount environments including process control, test & measurement, and HMI applications.

Extended temperature range and other options are available. If you have application-specific requirements, call today to discuss a Sealevel custom COM Express solution.

Relio R9 ARM9 Embedded RISC Computer

The Relio R9 delivers RISC computing power with unmatched I/O features and uses the latest embedded software environment.

The Relio R9 is an application-ready platform for your next product design. The system is based on the 200MIPS Atmel AT91SAM9263 microcontroller boasting a 32-bit ARM instruction set for maximum performance. With up to 256MB RAM and 256MB Flash memory, the unmatched I/O features of the Relio R9 extend the possible uses beyond traditional ARM applications. The Relio R9 is the perfect platform for embedded applications requiring small size, wide operating temperature range, and flexible I/O connectivity.

Standard I/O includes Ethernet, serial, USB, CAN bus, digital and analog interface. System designers can directly drive TFT/STN LCDs from the internal video controller and the onboard resistive touchscreen controller, making it perfect for human-machine interface applications.

To provide the fastest time to market, the Windows CE 6.0 BSP binary and low-level drivers for system I/O are included. Additionally, the Relio R9 software package is equipped with the Sealevel Talos I/O framework, which offers a high-level, object-oriented .NET Compact Framework (CF) device interface. This interface provides an I/O point abstraction layer with built-in support for the specific needs of analog and digital I/O such as gain control and debouncing.

For embedded Linux systems, Sealevel provides fully configurable components – cross-compilation toolchain, bootloader, kernel and root filesystem – using a customized BuildRoot with Sealevel patches, additional features, and source code samples.

The Relio R9 is housed in a rugged, small enclosure suitable for mounting almost anywhere and is rated for a full -40°C to 85°C operating temperature range. The Relio R9 is powered from your 7-30VDC source, or select from a variety of Sealevel power supply options.
