http://www.aps.anl.gov/epics/modules/
has a (probably incomplete) list of EPICS supported I/O modules, most of
which are VME-based. Mezzanine boards are an option, if you place them
onto a carrier board on your choice of bus.
Hope this helps,

Hello
We have a project were we want to monitor some values (some analog some
digital)
This is mostly for archiving and then later reviewing to determine if
equipment is working as it should over longer periods of time.
Also to try and determine if some equipment would need to be replaced
ahead of the time when failure occurs.
So far we've considered the national instruments cards. As they can do

all the I/O we require.
They are also fairly easy to interface using DotNet.

But there is already a channel archiver for EPICS which I think is worth

using maybe?

I know there are some Linux drivers for NI cards. Haven't looked at them

yet.
But maybe there is some other card or system I can consider for this
project?
Thanks for your time
