This is in regards to the White Paper with the same name as this Post Subject: http://www.ni.com/white-paper/52272/en/
I wanted to respond with feedback right on the White Paper, but it seems like that option is not available.
One use case I do not see addressed by this White Paper is the capability of the cFP-1804/1808 to natively work with the Extended Optomux commands when using the serial connection over a modem. Yes, yes, I KNOW it is antiquated, but we still have customers that DEMAND dial-up modem communication capability.
The great thing we found was the native support of the Extended Optomux commands on the cFP-1804/1808.
Discussion of Optomux commands with cFP-180X White Paper: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/005DCF36D1C88E7586256CBD00634E92
What is the recommendation on switching to cRIO in replacement of cFP-180X devices that are using the native Extended Optomux commands?
Would we have to use a controller with a built-in Console Out DB9 or go with a NI-9870 and write our own Optomux response/handshaking code?
