OS-free CPU module
This is a CPU module on which only boot program is implemented. Any operating system (OS) which is corresponding to the boot program can be started.
Details
Features
- ARM Processor
Because of having ARM processor (Cortex-A9 MPCore，866MHz), high-speed control is possible. - Built-in boot program
It provides boot measures as per the standard usage of the boot program, boot Flash memory / SD card / network. Moreover, environmental variable set up is performed through RS-232C as per the terminal. - DDR3 SDRAM
Double data rate mode 3 realizes high-speed data transfer and low power consumption. - FLASH ROM / SRAM
Data can be easily stored on non-volatile devices. - Ample I/O of e-RT3/FA-M3 is accessible
The initialization process to access IO of e-RT3/FA-M3 is done by boot program. With developing OS drivers, user can access IO modules. - 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX/1000BASE-T Ethernet
By mounting 2ch Ethernet, debug environment and application environment can be separated. - SD card interface (2 slot)
SDHC memory card can be used. It has two SD card slots (SD1 and SD2). SD1 is used for system startup and always mounted. SD2 is removable. - PCI Interface
By using PCI bus, high-speed data communication with utility module is possible to execute. - MODE Switch
The start mode can be switched with the MODE switch at power-on and reset start. - Battery backup
The internal battery can provide the power supply to RTC and SRAM when the power is cut off.
The internal battery can be easily exchanged from the outside. A battery voltage reduction is notified with the BAT LED.

Software
AI control software packege for F3RP70 (SFRM19-MDW) New !
AI control software package is required to create and use AI control applications that run on OS images for OS-Free CPU module (model: F3RP70-2L) of the e-RT3.
The software package provide an execution library and data acquisition application.
Features
- Execution library
By using the execution library, you can program AI control by using the control model generated by the AI control learning tool.
For the control functions of the execution library, an API is provided for PID calculations in addition to AI control calculations.
You can switch between calculation methods during transient response and settling time, and use the PID calculator as a feedback circuit.
Provides high-performance libraries for the C language environment. - AI control
It able to control the device using the AI control model learned by the AI control learning tool. - File Conversion Utility
This application converts data files collected by Yokogawa recorders into a format (TSV format) that can be uploaded to the AI Control Learning Tool (Cloud).

AI control learning tool for F3RP70 (SFRL18-MPC) New !
AI control learning tool is provided as a cloud service.
AI control means that an AI learns and controls the causal relationship between conditions such as inputs to equipment and the surrounding environment, and the amount of control, such as output of the equipment.
The learning tool provides a cloud-based model generation (learning) environment.
Features
- Simulator generator function
Generation of the simulator is data-driven based on the equipment operation data.
Use of a simulator increases efficiency by speeding up repetitive learning and eliminating the need for actual machine work.
The accuracy of the simulator is displayed graphically. - AI control model learning function
The control models generated through AI learning achieve suitable control of the target equipment without having to understand the characteristics of the equipment in detail.
The response performance of the control model is displayed graphically. - Control model response performance check function
The response performance of the control model is displayed graphically. - Download AI control model function
