Foxboro Evo ™ Compact 200 Series I/O subsystem of the system

Question 2: What are the core components of this subsystem? What are the differences in the carrying capacity of FBMs with different control processors?

Answer: The core components include: ① Control processor (FCP280/FCP270/ZCP270); ② 20+FBMs (analog/digital/hybrid I/O types); ③ 16 slot horizontal bottom plate, FBI200 isolator, FCM communication module; ④ G/K series protective casing and terminal components (TA). The differences in the carrying capacity of FBMs among different processors are as follows:

FCP280: Supports up to 128 200 Series FBMs, or 128 (100+200 Series) hybrid FBMs (up to 64 for 100 Series);

FCP270: Up to 32 200 Series FBMs without FEM100, up to 128 with FEM100, and up to 64 with 100 Series;

ZCP270: Supports up to 128 FBMs (100/200 Series) through FCM100E, with a single FCM100Et pair supporting 32 FBMs.

Question 3: What are the components of the system's redundant configuration? What is the cable length limit during deployment?

Answer: ① Redundant configuration coverage: power supply, control network, FCMs (communication modules), control processors, module bus cables, and some FBMs (such as FBM216b/FBM218); Redundant design can avoid single point failures and ensure the continuous operation of critical process circuits. ② Cable length limit:

Shielded twisted pair cable (module bus/backplane interconnection): 0.12-60m (single segment), total length of the entire 2Mbps HDLC bus ≤ 60m (including FBI200 connection);

Fiber optic cables (FCM2F series): FCM2F2 (2km), FCM2F4 (4km), FCM2F10 (10km), 2 pairs of FCM2F10 can be extended up to 20km;

Terminal Assembly (TA) and Base Plate Connection Cable: 0.5-30m.
