It performs regulatory, logic, timing, and sequential control together with connected Fieldbus Modules. The FCP280 also handles data acquisition and alarm detection and notification. It connects to The Mesh control network using standard fiber optic or copper Ethernet cables.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe FCP280 requires Foxboro Evo Control Core Services v9.0 or later. When combined with this software, it forms a Foxboro Evo Process Automation System.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNote:\u003c\/strong\u003e Certain migration or third-party modules may increase the maximum module limit per FCP280. Refer to the documentation for the specific supported modules.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen supporting both 200 Series and 100 Series FBMs, each Fieldbus port is dedicated to either a 268 Kbps HDLC fieldbus (for 100 Series FBMs) or a 2 Mbps HDLC fieldbus (for 200 Series FBMs).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor connections to 100 Series FBMs over 60 m (198 ft), an FBI200 pair is required to extend communications up to 1830 m (6000 ft).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo connect a Fieldbus port directly to a 268 Kbps HDLC fieldbus, a Fieldbus splitter (RH928CV) is used, providing a connector for the Fieldbus port and termination blocks for the twinaxial cabling from the 100 Series FBMs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe FCP280 can also communicate with serial and Ethernet devices, such as PLCs, through Field Device System Integrators, allowing connectivity to new device interfaces without controller software changes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo estimate the processor load of the FCP280, refer to the Field Control Processor 280 (FCP280) Sizing Guidelines and Excel Workbook.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Foxboro","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52750975631645,"sku":"FCP280","price":9.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0983\/5387\/3181\/files\/FBM201-P0914SQ2-1_1000_d4322213-30bc-4ff9-933f-12920411e06e.jpg?v=1787112982","url":"https:\/\/www.6gcontrols.com\/products\/foxboro-invensys-fcp280-plc-module-brand-new-in-stock","provider":"6G Controls","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
