Foxboro | FBM228 | FOUNDATION Fieldbus Module
Overview
The Foxboro FBM228 is a FOUNDATION Fieldbus Module designed for reliable communication in industrial automation systems. It features multiple isolated H1 Links, allowing for flexible and efficient signal management.
Technical Specifications
-
Interface:
- Four isolated H1 Links
-
H1 Bus Characteristics:
-
General:
Non-redundant multi-drop communications bus operating at 31.25 kbps. Topology is the bus/tree type. Each FBM228 (and associated H1 Link) has its own Link Active Scheduler (LAS). -
Maximum Allowable Bus Length and Maximum Allowable Spur Length, Single Device per Spur:
See document AG-181, FOUNDATION™ fieldbus System Engineering Guidelines. -
Maximum Cable Length, FBM228 to Terminator Assembly:
30 m (99 ft) -
Maximum Number of Devices on Fieldbus:
64 devices per module with a maximum of 16 devices per H1 Link. Maximums also vary according to factors such as the power consumption of each device, the type of cable used, and the use of repeaters. Consult FOUNDATION fieldbus Physical Layer Specifications for details. -
Maximum Number of Points:
128 publisher/subscriber block connections and 256 client/server block connections per FBM, 32 publisher/subscriber block connections and 64 client/server block connections per Link. Total capacity is affected by the update period of client/server access to device block parameters and by the configured macrocycle. Update period is separately configured for each block. -
Configurable Loop Macrocycle:
A minimum macrocycle time of 200 milliseconds is supported. It is automatically adjusted, if necessary, to achieve a 50% unscheduled time to support client/server communications on the H1 Link.
