Is it possible to use PC Card flash disks on PXI-8221 when using real-time OS?

[Daniel_Chile]

Hi. We will build an application to run on a RT PXI controller. We would like to use an additional removable flash disk, so we thougth about using the PXI-8221 PC Card carrier and a PCMCIA flash disk. Is this possible on real-time?

Thanks

Hi, Daniel,

Currently, the PXI-8221 is not supported under LabVIEW RT. If you need to have an external hard disk for additional disk space, I will recommend you getting a PXI-8252. This is a FireWire card and you can connect an external hard drive to it with the right HDD enclosure.

Let me know if you have any questions.
