Foxboro FBM204 Input Interface Module

This form of upgrade helps to prevent any significant impact on the local control process.

- Provides CP overload protection to notify the operator when the FCP280 is reaching its performance limits

- Liquid crystal display (LCD) shows letter errors as well as real-time roles and statuses

- Connects to the Foxboro DCS control network via standard fibre optic or copper 100 Mbps Ethernet cable

- Rugged die-cast aluminium enclosure for installation in unventilated field cabinets

- Operates in G3 rated harsh environments

- CE certified for field installation in cabinets

- Each fieldbus port on the standard FCP280 baseboard supports a dedicated 2 Mbps or 268 Kbps HDLC fieldbus port

- Provides control capability for a variety of process applications using versatile control algorithms and a variety of FBMs

- Supports time synchronisation using optional external time from GPS satellites

Using soft letter blocks, the FCP280 can be configured via pushbuttons on the panel.

- Optional dual cable substrate allows use of separate cables for each ‘A’ and ‘B’ buses

Features

The key features of the Compact FBM242 module are listed below:

 16 discrete outputs

 Supports discrete output signals for the following voltages

- 15 to 60 VDC

- 120 VAC/125 VDC

- 240 VAC

 Each output is galvanically isolated; group-isolated when used with external excitation.

 Compact and rugged, suitable for enclosures in Class G3 (harsh) environments

 Executes discrete I/O or ladder logic programs, configurable with the following options:

Input Filter Time, Fail Safe Configuration, Fail Safe Fallback, Continuous or Instantaneous Outputs

 Various terminal assemblies (TAs) that include the following

- Current limiting devices

- Fuses

- Relay outputs with external power supply, fuses and distribution

- Solid-state outputs

- Redundant power distribution

The FCP280 also supports the following functions:

- Setting and reading FCP280 beacons via panel pushbuttons

- Function Block Alarm Enhancement:

Re-alarm on alarm priority change

Re-alarm on configurable time-delayed dead zones and suppress alarms based on time

- Optional UTC external time synchronisation

- Improved controller performance

- The optional self-hosted mode allows the FCP280 to boot up and run,

executing configured control schemes using checkpoint files stored in flash memory.

This allows the FCP280 to start up with an efficient control database even if the host workstation is not present.

- Supports high-speed functions such as ladder logic, Motor Drive Actuator Controller (MDACT)

and Distributed Proportional Integral Derivative Function (DPIDA)
