VNETs

VNETs are hardware modules developed for neoVI PLASMA that support different functionality for different needs.  Up to three VNETs are possible as shown in Figure 1.



Figure 1: neoVI PLASMA has 3 VNET connections along the bottom.

A central FIRE VNET is required to control the outer two VNETs and also provides the DC power connection to neoVI PLASMA.  The outer slots can have any of the VNETs listed in Table 1.

All VNETs are able to run their own scripts for data logging, simulation, or test execution.  Scripts run independently of other active VNETs.  Although they are independent, they record data with a single time stamp onto the neoVI PLASMA SD cards.
