Description
Each FBM233 module has a single 10/100Mbps
copper Ethernet connection and a single RJ-45
connector on the front of the module for connectivity
to dual-ported Ethernet devices. The FBM233 is
connected to Ethernet switches or hubs in order to
communicate with one external device or up to 64
external devices.
Product Dimensions：
Each FBM233 module has a single 10/100Mbps
copper Ethernet connection and a single RJ-45
connector on the front of the module for connectivity
to dual-ported Ethernet devices. The FBM233 is
connected to Ethernet switches or hubs in order to
communicate with one external device or up to 64
external devices.
A pair of modules combine to provide redundancy at
the Fieldbus Module (FBM) level. In this configuration,
one FBM233 is the Master, and the other is the
Tracker module. Input points on the control station
are updated from the device inputs received on the
network connected to the Master. Device output
points, depending on the I/O driver, are written by
both the Master and Tracker module. Role switching
is automatic if problems are detected (for example,
loss of heartbeat from any device) by the I/O driver,
or the user can switch the roles at any time via
SMDH. The general network configuration is shown
in Figure 1.
Key features of the FBM233 are:
Redundant 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps Ethernet
network transmission rate to/from field devices
Communicates with up to 64 field devices
I/O software driver is downloadable from a library
of available protocols
Up to 2000 DCI block connections
Integrates field device data into a Foxboro Evo
control database using Ethernet connectivity
Field mounted
Class G3 (harsh) environments.
I/O DRIVERS
This FBM is a generic Ethernet hardware module in
which different software drivers can be loaded. These
drivers configure the FBM to recognize a particular
protocol used by the device. Several of these
software drivers are a standard product offerings.
Other custom drivers can be developed to meet
specific needs. These drivers are dynamically
downloaded to the FBM233 with software code
specifically designed to interface with the third party
device’s protocol.
The configuration procedures and the software
requirements for each driver are unique to the
device(s) being integrated into the system.
ETHERNET LINK SETUP
Data communication between the FBM233 and field
devices are through the RJ-45 connector located on
the front of the FBM233 module. The RJ-45
connector of the FBM233 can be connected through
hubs, or through Ethernet switches to the field
devices (refer to “ETHERNET SWITCHES FOR USE
WITH FBM233” on page 7). The FBM233 is
connected to Ethernet switches or hubs in order to
communicate with one external device or up to 64
external devices.
CONFIGURATOR
The FDSI configurator sets up the FBM233 port and
XML based device configuration files. The port
configurator allows for easy setup of the
communication parameters for each port (such as,
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP),
IP addresses). The device configurator is not needed
for all devices, but when needed it configures device
specific and point specific considerations (such as,
scan rate, address of the data to be transferred, and
the amount of data to be transferred in one
transaction).
OPERATIONS
Each FBM233 pair can access up to 64 devices to
read or write data.
From the Foxboro Evo control station to which the
FBM233 is connected (refer to Figure 1), up to 2000
Distributed Control Interface (DCI) data connections
can be made to read or write data. Supported data
types are determined by the particular driver loaded
on the FBM233, which converts the data to the DCI
data types listed below:
An analog input or output value (integer or IEEE
single-precision floating point)
A single digital input or output value
Multiple (packed) digital input or output values
(packed in groups of up to 32 digital points per
connection).
Thus a Foxboro Evo control station can access up to
2000 analog I/O values, or up to 64000 digital I/O
values, or a combination of digital and analog values
using the FBM233. The frequency of access to the
FBM233 data by a control station can be as fast as
500 ms. The performance is dependant on each
device type and the layout of data in the device.
