ARK-1250L is the model of the ARK-1000 series that brings Core i-class processing to the DIN-rail housing: an Intel 11th Gen (Tiger Lake) quad-core Core i5-1145G7E or dual-core Core i3-1115G4E, Iris Xe graphics and dual-slot DDR4-3200 memory (up to 64 GB). Three Intel GbE ports (one 1GbE, two 2.5GbE; a fourth 2.5GbE on the S5A2 variant), four RS-232/422/485 serial ports, three USB 3.2 and three USB 2.0 make it a control computer that aggregates all serial and Ethernet field devices while also carrying an image-processing or edge-analytics workload. Display output is 4K HDMI + VGA on the A1 variants and dual HDMI on the S5A2.
Storage options are a 2.5″ SATA III bay, a full-size mSATA slot shared with mPCIe and an M.2 2280 B key (PCIe) with nano-SIM holder; an M.2 2230 E key serves wireless. The iDoor slot adds isolated CANBus, serial ports, digital I/O or Gigabit Ethernet via MOS modules (requires the AMO-I032 expansion kit; mPCIe and M.2 E key are mechanically unavailable while a MOS module is fitted). A thermal kit for 5G or Hailo AI B key modules (AMK-A045), a TPM 2.0 module (AMO-I029) and a CANBus cable replacing GPIO are optional. 12 – 24 VDC input; the 90 W adapter is included; typical consumption 18 – 19.8 W. Windows 10/11 IoT Enterprise LTSC and Ubuntu 20.04/22.04 are supported, and WISE-DeviceOn provides edge-AI OTA and container management.
