TCP/IP for QNX 2 offered new possibilities for QNX 2 systems: telnet, ftp and other standard tools enabled efficient communication with any TCP/IP computers. The only limitation was the dependency on an ISA card.
The newest version for PCI cards overcomes this restricion. The beta test has now ended and the full product is now available.

Hilscher CIF-cards offer even access to field bus systems (CANopen, Interbus, ModConnect, Profibus, etc.) over only one single driver! This simplifies the things dramatically in two ways:

1. On the programming level: you can exchange cards as you like with out the need of modifying the type of access
2. On the program selection level: you only need a single configuration and diagnostic program

We almost doubled the size of the product catalogue:

• 33 manufacturers
• 114 product families
• 1273 products

Moreover we have created a goldmine, where you can find expired and outdated products at bargain prices. Special offers and obsolete products are specially marked.

For finding faster, what you are looking for, you can now select by listing:

• either only the current products and the goldmine
• or only the goldmine
• or all products

The previous product catalogue was already flexible and clearly arranged, but it was not fast enough for the rapidly growing range of products. The new catalogue brings improvements on three areas:

• faster (up to 12 times) by use of the efficient EMPRESS RDBMS
• more clearly by inserting product families below product groups
• more comfortably by page navigation also with many search hits

Fibre optics is an ideal solution for industrial networks because of its extreme fail-safe characteristics. Linking a QNX computer to a glass fibre network still caused problems on the last meter of the connection, because of a interference-prone twisted-pair cable.

The company Danpex now offers two network cards for the PCI bus, with ST or SC links for direct connection with the glass fibre network. Since the card uses the popular chip DEC 21143, there are no problems supporting it also by QNX 4.25. SWD has taken over the Europ-wide distribution of all network products of Danpex.

Many QNX beginners have missed a practical introduction to QNX 4. QNX 2 experts perhaps still know the book "The QNX Operating System" from Franc Kolnick, the developer of QNX Windows. This was and is the standard work to QNX 2 and it gives practical hints about system architecture and application programming. Frank Kolnick has now finished an appropriate work for QNX 4, for which SWD has taken over the Europ-wide distribution.
