3. Fieldbus Integration With Experion System
3.1 Overview
Background
The following table summarizes the major areas of enhancement that were key to
bringing Fieldbus into the Experion system.
Area Accomplishment
Connection of Foundation Fieldbus
devices to the Experion system.
Integrate fieldbus devices on an H1 link
with the Supervisory level ControlNet
and/or the I/O ControlNet network.
Configuration of Foundation Fieldbus
devices through the Experion system.
Integrate configuration of fieldbus
devices through the Control Builder
application.
Integration of Foundation Fieldbus
Devices process, maintenance, and
alarm data with notification and display
functions in the Experion system.
Integrate data from fieldbus devices into
Detail, Group, Trend, Maintenance, and
Alarm displays through the Station
application as well as the Monitoring tab
of the Control Builder application.
CIOM-A FIM versus Series C FIM
The
Series C Fieldbus Interface Module (FIM4) is designed to complement the C300
Controller and Fault Tolerant Ethernet (FTE) communications within Experion R300
systems or later. While the Series C FIM is functionally equivalent to the Chassis I/O-
Series A (CIOM-A) FIM, its physical design, including mounting and wiring
requirements, is drastically different. Please refer to the Series C FIM User's Guide for
information that is specific to integrating fieldbus through a Series C FIM.
ATTENTION
The topology and hardware related details in this document are based on
using a CIOM-A FIM to provide fieldbus integration. The functional details
related to control integration and standard fieldbus functions are applicable to
both CIOM-A and Series C FIMs.
