Overview
The Moxa DA-710 Series of x86-based rackmount embedded computers are designed for industrial data
acquisition applications. Their state-of-the-art two expansion module design gives users a versatile
combination of up to 16 RS-232/422/485 serial ports, or up to 4+8 Ethernet ports. This friendly design gives
users the advantage of being able to swap out modules quickly and easily. Additional expansion modules will
be available soon.
The DA-710 main system is based on the Intel Celeron M processor and GLE960 chipset, which supports
standard X86 VGA, USB, PS/2 keyboard/mouse, 4 Gigabit LAN ports, and IDE/SATA disk interface. In addition,
the DA-710 supports a CompactFlash Socket and pre-installed embedded ready-to-run operating system.
Programmers will find the full-function development examples a great benefit for developing software and
building reliable communication applications.
The housing is a standard 4U, 19-inch wide rack-mounted rugged enclosure. This robust, rack-mountable
design provides the hardened protection needed for industrial environment applications.
Software Specifications
The Linux operating system pre-installed on the DA-710 embedded computer is the Debian Lenny 5.0
distribution. The Debian project is a worldwide group of volunteers who endeavor to produce an operating
system distribution that composed entirely of free software. The Debian GNU/Linux follows the standard Linux
architecture, making it easy to use programs that meet the POSIX standard. Program porting can be done with
the GNU Tool Chain provided by Moxa. In addition to Standard POSIX APIs, device drivers for Moxa UART and
other special peripherals are also included. An example software architecture is shown below:

GNU/Linux and free software concept.
ATTENTION
The a
