Foxboro 0399144 SY-0301059F SY-1025115C/SY-1025120E Control Module
This FBM is a generic Ethernet hardware module inwhich different software drivers
can be loaded. These drivers configure the FBM to recognize a particular
protocol used by the device. Several of the software drivers are standard product offerings.
Other custom drivers can be developed to meet specific needs.
These drivers are dynamically downloaded to the FBM232 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 FBM232 and field devices are through the RJ-45 connectorlocated on
the front of the FBM232 module. The RJ-45 connector of the FBM232 can be connected through
hubs, or through Ethernet switches to the field devices (refer to “ETHERNET HUBS AND
SWITCHES” on page 8). Connection of multiple devices to the FBM232 requires a hub or switch.
CONFIGURATOR
The FDSI configurator sets up the FBM232 XMLbased port and device configuration files.
The port configurator allows for easy setup of thecommunication parameters for each port
(such as, Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), IPaddresses).
The device configurator is not needed forall 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).
