Foxboro FBM231 Field Device System Integrator Module Four Serial
Ports Redundant
Description FOXBORO FBM231
The FBM231 Redundant Field Device System Integrator (FDSI) modules
provide a serial interface between dual-ported field I/O devices
and the EcoStruxure™ Foxboro™ DCS system. A pair of FBM231 modules
combine to provide redundancy at the Fieldbus Module (FBM) level,
with field wiring to two termination assemblies (see Figure 1). In
this configuration, one FBM231 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 actual problems are detected (for example, heartbeat)
by the I/O driver, or the user can switch the roles at any time via
SMDH. The FBM231 has four ports - each can be individually
configured in software for RS232, RS422 or RS-485. This allows a
single FBM231 the flexibility to connect to multiple similar but
not identical devices. Ports 1, 2, 3, and/or 4 can be configured as
a single logical port with redundant cables allowing you to
interface with dual-ported I/O devices within your plant. The
general network configurations are shown in Figure 1. The FBM231
and its associated termination assemblies (TA) accommodate several
types of connections to dual-ported devices; direct connection to
devices; connection to modems when used with the RS-232
communication interface, and multidrop connections to RS-485
devices. Intrinsic safety devices can be connected between the TA
and the field device. For single ported devices, you should use the
FBM230.
