1. Preinstallation
This chapter describes the basic unpacking and system power check procedures for I/A Series
system equipment.
This document contains procedures for installing, interconnecting, and applying power to the
I/A Series system equipment.
NOTE
For installation information on enclosures used with DIN rail mounted FBM
equipment (B03, B04, and B05), refer to DIN Rail Mounted FBM Subsystem User’s
Guide (B0400FA), FOUNDATION Fieldbus H1 Interface Module (FBM220/221) User
Guide (B0400FD), I/A Series® PROFIBUS-DPTM Communication Interface Module
(FBM223) User’s Guide (B0400FE), and I/A Series® HARTTM Communication Inter-
Unloading
The system units are designed to withstand vibration and shock normally encountered during
shipping and installation; however, extreme shocks and vibration should be avoided. The
system units may be moved from the transportation vehicle to their intended locations by forklift
or manual jack truck. If practical, all major movements of the units should be completed before
the units are unpacked.
Unpacking Procedure
The following unpacking procedure applies, in general, to all system units:
1. Inspect the exterior of the shipping carton for obvious damage. (Any noticeable dam-
age should be indicated in the shipper’s bill of lading.)
2. Verify that the equipment received is that described in the bill of lading.
3. Remove shipping straps, shipping shroud, and other packing materials, such as poly-
ethylene bags and styrofoam cushioning materials.
NOTE
If you anticipate that the unit will be stored or shipped from the present site, save all
packing materials for reuse.
4. If the unit is attached to a skid, remove all shipping hardware and hold-down bolts
used to fasten the unit to the skid. Separate the skid from the unit.
5. Ensure that the appropriate interconnecting cables are present, by comparing the
cable part numbers and quantities with those listed in the bill of lading.

B0193AC – Rev T 1. Preinstallation
! WARNING
Take heed of the following warnings:
1. Careless handling of the system units during installation can result in damage to
the equipment or in personal injury. For units containing a cathode-ray display tube
(CRT), avoid striking the face of the tube.
2. Exercise caution against electrical shock when you connect ac power to a
system unit.
Unpacking Hard Disk Drive
! CAUTION
Observe the following precautions when working with hard disk drives.
1. Protect the drive from harsh shocks at any time.

2. Handle the drive by the frame only to avoid static discharge damage to the drive elec-
trical components.
3. When installing disk drives, do not block or impede the cooling air flow through the
drive.
4. For any installation, the drives should not be tilted front to back, in any position, hor-
izontal or vertical, by more than plus-or-minus 5°.
5. Properly connect power and signal cables to the drive before you apply power to the
drive.
6. To be sure the actuator is completely locked, do not move the drive for 15 seconds
after dc power is removed.
System Power Checks

Perform the following checks before you install the equipment:
NOTE
The Site Planning document (B0193AB) identifies site requirements for system
power connections.
1. Check that all the required ac or dc power distribution network lines are installed.
2. Check that the appropriate number of ac power outlets are installed and spaced
appropriately.
3. Switch on main system power.
4. Using a multimeter, check that the appropriate operating voltage exists at each ac out-
let or connection point.
5. Switch off main system power.
2
2. Equipment Mounting Procedures
This chapter describes mounting procedures for the I/A Series enclosures and associated
peripheral equipment.
! WARNING
To prevent electrical shock hazard and signal interference, high voltage main power
cables (those carrying 30 V rms or greater, or 60 V dc or greater) must be kept sepa-
rate from low voltage signal cables (those carrying less than 30 V rms, or less than
60 V dc). Separate conduit, cable runs, and so forth, must be used, as well as sepa-
rate cable entry into the enclosure. The minimum allowable separation between
high and low voltage cables is 50 mm (2 in) at all points in the cable run.
NOTE
For installation information relating to the DIN rail subsystem enclosures (B03,
B04, and B05), refer to DIN Rail FBM Subsystem User’s Guide (B0400FA), FOUNDA-

Refer to “50 Series Modular Mounting Structures” on page 56 for more information on the mod-
ular mounting structures.
Both enclosures are designed for floor mounting, and both accept processor modules,
Fieldbus Modules, and data storage devices. Wires, cables, and conduits can enter either the bot-
tom or the top of the enclosure, but not both. Side doors provide access to the wiring areas. Addi-
tionally, the doors can be mounted to open from left-to-right or right-to-left.
Industrial Enclosures 16 and 32 are available in two configurations, vented and sealed. The
vented configuration has openings at the top and bottom to provide ventilation, and has a metal
plate, with gasket, at the bottom for electrical protection purposes. A sealed enclosure has metal
plates, with gaskets, at the top and bottom to provide a watertight seal. Mounting structures for
the 50 Series require vented enclosures. The IE 16 is available as a sealed enclosure for 50 Series
configurations.
An optional bridge assembly is available with the Industrial Enclosure 32. The bridge
assembly allows joining of multiple Industrial Enclosures 32 to form a single, bridged unit.
Industrial Enclosures 16 and 32, Cable Entry Information

Consider the following items before you perform the Industrial Enclosure 16 or 32 mounting
procedure:
♦ Separate the high and low voltage cables. See the Warning statement on page 3.
♦ Consider the type of enclosure (vented or sealed), and whether to use top or bottom
conduit entry (or cable entry). Figure 2-3 and Figure 2-4 show conduit entry points
for a vented Industrial Enclosure 16 or 32, and for a sealed Industrial Enclosure 16 or
32, respectively. Details on preparing the enclosure for top or bottom conduit entry
are presented in the procedure, “Industrial Enclosure 16 or 32, Mounting Procedure”

Metal Termination Enclosures

Externally, Metal Termination Enclosures (IETERMs) are similar in appearance and structure to
the IEMFA (ME24) and IEMFR (ME32) enclosures. It contains a full-size internal vertical panel
for mounting of additional field termination or other electronics. The Metal Termination Enclo-
sure is available with front or front-and-rear access, and each door can be vented, fully vented, or
sealed (Figure 2-23).

Figure 2-23. IEMFA/IEMFR and IETERM Enclosures
The fully vented metal enclosure is a converted vented metal enclosure with new doors, which
allows significantly more air to flow inside. Heat intensive processors, such as the Model 51, Style
E processor, require mounting in a fully vented enclosure. This enclosure can be installed in areas
where the air does not require filtration before it is exposed to the equipment inside the metal
enclosure, such as office areas. A full vented left-hinged door for this enclosure is available in kit
part number P0971VE. A fully vented right-hinged door for this enclosure is available in kit part
number P0971VK.
As they are structurally similar, the following mounting procedures apply to the IEMFA (ME24)
and IEMFR (ME32) and the metal termination enclosure (IETERM). All configurations of the
metal enclosures allow top, bottom, or both top-and-bottom cable entry.
Before implementing the IEMFA (ME24) and IEMFR (ME32) or termination enclosure
(IETERM) mounting procedure, you must consider the following items:
♦ Separate the high and low voltage cables. See the Warning statement at the beginning
of this chapter on page 3.
♦ Consider the type of enclosure (vented or sealed), and whether top or bottom cable
entry is to be employed. Bottom cable entry can be from below the enclosure (from
beneath a raised floor or from a cable trough), or from floor level via the openings pro-
vided by removing the front and rear access panels in the enclosure base. With sealed
enclosures, top cable entry is via a conduit through the enclosure top panel. With
vented enclosures, top cable entry is through an access panel located on the top panel
directly over the cable area – to the right of the exhaust fan area.
♦ 50 Series mounting structures require vented enclosures.
22
To mount the IEMFA (ME24) and IEMFR (ME32), IETERM enclosure, refer to Figure 2-24
and Figure 2-25 and proceed as follows:
1. If the enclosure is to be bolted to the floor:
a. Place the enclosure in the desired location.
b. Remove the front and rear access panels from the base as shown in Figure 2-24.
c. Locate the mounting holes at the base (at its corners).
d. Mark the hole locations on the floor.
e. Move the enclosure away from the markings.
f. Drill holes in floor.
g. Move the enclosure over the holes and fasten to floor using suitable hardware.
(The hardware used depends on the type of floor and is left to your discretion.)

3. If the enclosure is the vented type IEMFR (ME32) and cable entry is to be from the
bottom, provide an opening in the (inside) base of the enclosure by moving or remov-
ing the slide-over/removable metal plates at the (inside) base of the enclosure. The
plates are held in place by allenhead fasteners.
4. If the enclosure is the vented type and cable entry is to be from the top:
a. Remove the cable access plate from the top of the enclosure. The plate is located
to the right of the exhaust fan. (Removal of the cable access plate also requires
removal of a ground wire attached to the plate.)
NOTE
The IETERMs have no cable access plate. Remove the top panel from the
termination enclosure (by removing the 4 eye bolts and the ground wire) to make
ready for drilling or punching of holes.
b. Drill or punch the required holes in the cable access plate (or in the top panel in
the case of the termination enclosure).
c. Attach grommets or conduit fittings as required for the specific installation.
d. Replace the cable access plate (or top panel in the case of the termination enclo-
sure) and reconnect the ground wire.
5. If the enclosure is the sealed type and cable entry is to be from the bottom:
a. Remove the cable access plate from the inside base of the enclosure. (This also
requires disconnecting the ground wire attached to the plate.)
b. Drill or punch the required holes in the cable access plate and provide
appropriate fittings for a watertight seal.
c. Replace the cable access plate and reconnect the ground wire.
6. If the enclosure is the sealed type and cable entry is to be from the top:
a. Remove the enclosure top panel by unscrewing the four eye bolts holding it in
place. (This also requires disconnecting the ground wire attached to the panel.)
b. Drill or punch holes in the enclosure top panel in positions (at your discretion)
required for cable routing into the enclosure.
c. Provide appropriate conduit fittings for a watertight seal.
d. Replace the enclosure top panel and reconnect the ground wire.

Metal Field Enclosure 8, Mounting

The metal Field Enclosure 8 contains a single 1x8 mounting structure which accepts both proces-
sor and Fieldbus Modules. The enclosure is available in two configurations, floor-mounted or
wall-mounted as shown in Figure 2-26. Both configurations are sealed (watertight) units. Cable
entry can be through the top, bottom, or both top and bottom.
You must consider the following items before you begin the Metal Field Enclosure 8 mounting
procedure:
♦ Separation of the high and low voltage cables. See the Warning statement at the begin-
ning of this chapter on page 3.
♦ The enclosure configuration (floor- or wall-mounted), and whether top or bottom
conduit entry is to be employed.

Over-Temperature Sensor Wiring

The following I/A Series enclosures with 120 or 240 V ac power include an over-temperature sen-
sor:
♦ IE16 and IE32
♦ Metal ME24/ME32/ME60
♦ Metal FE8
♦ Metal Termination Enclosures.
The over-temperature sensor is not used in enclosures with 24 or 125 V dc or 100 V ac power.
Figure 2-32 shows the location of the over-temperature sensor within the enclosure. In the IE16
or IE32, attach the sensor with one screw to the second oval hole down from the top along the
inside of the enclosure, just to the right of the topmost cell in the enclosure when facing the rear
29
of the enclosure. In the metal enclosure, attach the sensor with two screws above the front door
opening in the location shown in Figure 2-32.
The over-temperature sensor contains a pair of normally open contacts, rated at 2 A at 120 V ac,
which close when the temperature inside the enclosure exceeds normal operating levels.
Recommended wire size for over-temperature sensor wiring is 18 AWG (1 mm2). The recom-
mended procedure for attaching the wires to the sensor is using fast-on (solderless) terminals.
Alternatively, carefully solder the wires to the sensor without dropping solder into the equipment,
or damaging any insulation. Connections from the sensor may be made to an I/A Series Fieldbus
Module (for monitoring and alarming within the system) or to an external alarm device.

NEMA 4/4X Hardened Enclosures

The hardened enclosure (see Figure 2-33) provides an environmentally secure and rugged housing
for an I/A Series workstation. Each enclosure is shipped with installation instructions. The follow-
ing information will help you plan your site for a hardened enclosure.
Each hardened enclosure includes one of these air cooling systems, which is integrated onto the
enclosure:
♦ A vortex cooler
♦ An air conditioner.
Cabling to the enclosure is through one of two methods:
♦ Waterproof cabling ports
♦ Conduit mounts.
You assemble the waterproof cabling ports with easy-to-assemble kits (included with the
hardened enclosure), enabling passage of all cables through the hardened enclosure, while guaran-
teeing the a NEMA 4/4X rating.
Prepare for the installation by planning the site in which the enclosure will be located and obtain-
ing tools and necessary parts.
Figure 2-33. NEMA 4/4X Hardened Enclosure
Planning the Site

Before installing the workstation in the hardened enclosure and placing the assembly in your site,
perform the following actions.
♦ Select an area in which to assemble the hardened enclosure; approximately 4 square
meters (approximately 36 square feet) are required.
♦ Determine where the enclosure will be located. Allow sufficient space around the
enclosure for access (to open the enclosure’s doors, so you can inspect the air
conditioning hardware), for cabling, and for heat dissipation. Although 20 cm
(7.8 in) between the enclosure and a wall is sufficient, The Foxboro Company
31
recommends that there be a clearance of approximately 70 cm (28 in) at each of the

enclosure’s four sides to allow room to open enclosure doors. Provide additional space
so you can move around an enclosure when its doors are open.
♦ Furnish electrical power to the enclosure. For an enclosure configured with an air con-
ditioner, use two separate 15 A (120 V ac) circuits: one for the air conditioner, and
one for the electronic equipment.
♦ For vortex-cooled enclosures, furnish instrument air. Refer to “NEMA 4/4X
Hardened Enclosures” in the Site Planning document (B0193AB) for details.
♦ For units with conduit wiring entry, prepare the conduits leading to the enclosure.
You will also have to cut appropriately sized apertures through the enclosure and
mount the watertight conduits to the enclosure.
♦ Optionally, configure an over-temperature monitoring system to set off an alarm
should the enclosure’s internal temperature exceed 35°C (95°F). A thermostatically
controlled switch is provided inside the enclosure for this purpose.
Testing the Workstation and Monitor

Before installing the workstation into the enclosure, that is, before mounting the
50 Series, 70 Series, or Server 70 workstation and monitor inside the enclosure, ensure to your
satisfaction that the workstation operates properly.
Two 6-foot IEC power cords, which mate with the internal 4-position power strip, are supplied
with the enclosure. Use them to power the computer and monitor.
Obtaining Tools and Parts

Prepare for the installation by obtaining the required tools and hardware.
Tools
To install the workstation into the enclosure and to connect cooling system resources, you will
need:
♦ Adjustable crescent wrench for leveling the enclosure’s feet
♦ Adjustable crescent wrench or 1/2-inch socket wrench for the signal cable port
♦ A leveling device to level the enclosure
♦ Hole cutting tool sufficient to cut through 2 mm (.080 in) thick 304 stainless steel
(for an enclosure employing conduit apertures)
♦ Hex key wrench (3/16 inches across flats) to tighten the power cable port.
Hardware
The following hardware is necessary:
♦ The proper electrical cable (.70 in maximum diameter) to connect power between the
enclosure’s 4-position power strip and an electrical junction box.
♦ For enclosures configured with an air conditioner, obtain the proper cable (.70 in
maximum diameter) to connect power between the air conditioner and an
electrical junction box.
32
♦ For enclosures configured with a vortex cooler, obtain a pipe fitting to connect to the
enclosure’s air input line. Refer to “NEMA 4/4X Hardened Enclosures” in Site Plan-
ning (B0193AB) for sizing information.
♦ For an enclosure employing conduit apertures, obtain conduit, flanges, gasket(s), baf-
fles, and duct seal. These are not supplied with the enclosure.
Installation
Installing the hardened enclosure involves these tasks:
1. Uncrating the materials
2. Leveling the enclosure
3. Connecting the air cooling system (vortex or air conditioner)
4. Assembling the signal port (or passing cables through water-proof conduit)
5. Connecting power to the enclosure
6. Installing the computer equipment into the enclosure
7. Cabling the enclosure
8. Installing and adjusting the monitor
9. Attaching the operator input device(s)
10. Grounding internal equipment.
Perform only the steps that apply to your enclosure’s configuration (air cooling system and cabling
entry method).
NOTE
Perform the steps in the order shown.
Uncrating the Materials

Identify all parts and inspect parts for damage.
Leveling the Enclosure

The enclosure has four adjustable feet, each of which is connected to the enclosure’s chassis by a
threaded rod. You can adjust the distance between the enclosure’s chassis and a foot by rotating a
foot. Use a level to determine when the enclosure is level. Adjust each foot until you are satisfied
with the enclosure’s levelness.
Connecting a Vortex Air Cooler

Perform this procedure only if your enclosure includes a vortex air cooler.
1. Connect the vortex cooler’s incoming air line (before the filter) to instrument air.
Refer to Figure 2-34 and to “NEMA 4/4X Hardened Enclosures” in Site Planning
(B0193AB) for air supply specifications.

NOTE
Ensure that the vortex cooler’s ducting tube, which delivers the cooled air to the
enclosure’s interior, is not blocked. Do not remove the cap from the end of the duct-
ing tube.
2. If not already connected, plug the vortex cooler’s power cord into the 4-position
power strip inside the enclosure.
Connecting an Air Conditioning System

Perform this procedure only if your enclosure includes an air conditioning system.
! CAUTION
The air conditioner requires a dedicated power source. Do not connect the air con-
ditioner to the enclosure’s internal 4-position power strip.
An electrician should connect a power cable of the proper size between the enclosure’s
air conditioner and an electrical junction box. Make the connection on the air conditioner’s ter-
minal block. The junction box must include an on/off switch and should be connected to a 15 A
circuit, separate from that of the enclosure’s 4-position power strip, that can handle a 40 A start
current. Refer to “NEMA 4/4X Hardened Enclosures” in Site Planning (B0193AB) for 230 V ac
specifications.
34
! CAUTION
Systems with an 8-position signal port: Do not pass the air conditioning system’s
power cable through the 8-position rectangular signal port. This may introduce
noise onto the signal cables.
Systems employing waterproof conduit mount: Minimize noise on the signal cables
by running the 4-position power strip cable and air conditioner power cable
through one conduit and running the signal cables through a different conduit.
The following procedure connects the enclosure’s air conditioner to a dedicated power source.
The steps include:
1. Partially disassembling the power cable port (only on an enclosure with a signal port).
2. Providing power to the air conditioner.
3. Reassembling the power cable port (only on an enclosure with a signal port).
4. Connecting the power cable to a switched junction box.

(only on systems with an 8-position signal port)
The power cable port is a round assembly through which the air conditioner’s power cable must
pass. The assembly permits the cable to exit the enclosure while assuring a NEMA 4X seal.
1. Identify the round power cable port to be used for the air conditioner’s power cable.
When facing the enclosure’s left side, the air conditioner’s power cable port is located
at the bottom-left corner of the enclosure. Enclosures that employ an air conditioner
have two round power cable ports. As viewed from the enclosure’s left side, the port
on the right is for the air conditioner’s power cable, and the port on the left is for the
enclosure’s power cable.
2. From the outside of the enclosure, use a hex key wrench (3/16 inches across flats)
to loosen the assembly’s four compression screws until you can pull out the bushing
seal assembly. The bushing seal assembly includes the four compression screws.
Providing Power to the Air Conditioner

You must connect the air conditioner to a power source. You do this by bringing a power cable
into the enclosure and connecting it to the air conditioner. The enclosure has a terminal block for
this purpose.
1. Pass the air conditioner’s power cable through the power cable port.
NOTE
The cable diameter must be .165 inches minimum, .70 inches maximum.
2. Locate the air conditioner’s terminal block assembly, which has a cover.
3. Remove the cover from the terminal block.
4. Connect the power cable to the air conditioner’ terminal block.
5. Dress the cable as needed, and secure it.
6. Replace the cover onto the terminal block.
35

(only on systems with an 8-position signal port)
Adapt the multidiameter core module (MDM) to the cable.
The front surface of the MDM is round and splits into two halves made up of peelable layers of
alternating colored shims. There is also a solid center plug. As you modify one half,
similarly modify the other half. The two halves must be identical in size.
0-1 mm
Figure 2-35. Cross Section of an MDM (NEMA 4/4X Hardened Enclosure)
1. Discard the MDM’s solid center plug.

2. Test whether the cable fits snugly between the two halves of the MDM such that the
gap between the two blocks must be less than 1 mm (.04 in). Refer to Figure 2-35.
If the gap is within 0 and 1 mm, skip to Step 5.
3. Starting from the center of the MDM, peel away one layer of rubber (shim) from each
half of the MDM and check whether the input power cable fits snugly between the
two halves.
4. If the cable is still too large to fit snugly between the two halves, peel away another
layer and test the fit. Peel away as many layers as needed until the gap between the two
blocks is less than 1 mm (.04 in).
NOTE
Small air gaps are removed by compressing the cable port assembly (later in this pro-
cedure).
5. Lubricate the MDM assembly.

The container of accessories inside the enclosure provides a tube of lubricant for this
purpose.
6. Place both halves of the MDM around the input power cable.
7. Slide the MDM into the power cable port.
The two halves of the MDM assembly should fit together snugly with the power cable
running through the center.
36
8. Tighten the four compression screws by alternately tightening two screws and then
the other two screws (similar to the way you tighten automotive tire lugs).
This method distributes pressure evenly across the power cable port assembly.
Connecting the Power Cable to a Junction Box

Connect the power cable to a junction box. The junction box must include a switch for control-
ling the air conditioner and should be connected to a 15 A 120 V circuit that can handle a 40 A
start current (refer to the chapter “NEMA 4/4X Hardened Enclosures” in Site
Planning (B0193AB) for 230 V ac specifications). This circuit should be different from the circuit
that provides power to the workstation. Observe proper polarity when installing the power cable.
Assembling the Signal Cable Port

This part of the installation involves collecting the signal cables inside the enclosure and routing
them through the waterproof 8-position signal port to the enclosure’s exterior.
Determining the Cables to Exit the Enclosure

Collect and identify each of the signal cables (Ethernet, speakers, thermostatically controlled
switch, and so on) that will exit the enclosure.
Thermostat Cable
Optionally, you can monitor the enclosure for cooling system malfunction by connecting the
enclosure’s built-in thermostatically controlled switch to an alarm device (such as a digital input of
an FBM17) and allowing the I/A Series software to monitor the cooling system.
NOTE
Do not confuse the enclosure’s thermostat with the vortex thermostat that comes
with a vortex-configured enclosure. Refer to “Vortex Cooling System” on page 34.
Alternatively, you might connect the thermostatically controlled switch to an audible alarm, such
as a bell. Run the thermostat cable through the signal cable port as described later in this docu-
ment. The thermostat is a normally open (NO) contact.
Speaker Cable
Some I/A Series workstations include an optional sound card and speakers. You can replace the
speaker cable with a cable of the proper length and diameter to accommodate placement of speak-
ers outside of the enclosure.
NOTE
Speakers may be inaudible if placed inside the enclosure. Obtain waterproof speak-
ers if you are going to place speakers outside of the enclosure.
Cabling Entry
Your enclosure uses one of these cabling ports:
♦ Rectangular, waterproof, 8-position signal cable assembly
♦ Conduit mount.
37
! CAUTION
Do not pass power cables through a signal cable port or signal conduit.
Depending on your method of cabling, perform one of the following two procedures.
Assembling the Signal Cable Port Assembly

The signal cable port is a rectangular-shaped assembly through which signal cables pass from the
inside of the enclosure to its outside.
If you need to pass more than eight cables through the signal cable port, you will require an addi-
tional signal port assembly (P0913NR) available from The Foxboro Company.
NOTE
You are responsible for cutting the aperture for an additional signal port.
To assemble a signal port assembly:

1. Disassemble the compression unit and the multidiameter core modules (MDMs)
from the signal cable port by performing the following steps.
a. From the inside of the enclosure, loosen the compression unit with a crescent
wrench or 1/2-inch socket wrench until you can extract the compression unit
from the signal cable port.
b. Remove the eight MDM modules and set them aside.
The MDM modules (P/N CS20) provided with the 8-position signal port
accommodate round cables with a minimum diameter of 0.165 inches (.5 inch maxi-
mum). If you need to pass flat cables through the signal cable port, obtain flat-cable
MDM modules (P/N CS10) by contacting:
NMP Corporation
P.O. Box 35493
Tulsa, OK 74153-0493
U.S.A.
Phone (918) 252-0481
Fax (918) 254-2544
A CS10 has a width of 20 mm and a height of 40 mm, and takes the space of two
standard (20 mm square) MDMs.
2. Plan which cable will run through each of the signal cable port frame’s eight
positions.
TIP
Photocopy “Signal Cable Port Template (NEMA 4/4X Hardened Enclosure)” on
page 39 and mark each position with the name of the cable running through it or
mark the words “not used” for positions to be filled with a plug.

NOTE
Unused positions are for future use.
3. Pass all the cables through the frame.

4. Starting at one end of the signal cable port frame (and using the photocopied tem-
plate), fill each position as follows:
NOTE
Fill all empty positions with a multidiameter module (MDM) plus its core. This is
necessary to prevent water from entering the enclosure through unused positions.

Figure 2-37. Cables Passing Through the Signal Cable Port (NEMA 4/4X Hardened Enclosure)
a. Adapt an MDM to each cable.

Each module comes complete with two halves, including peelable layers (shims)
and a solid center plug.
NOTE
The front surface of an MDM is 20 mm square and splits into two halves. As you
peel layers of rubber from one half, similarly modify the other half. The two halves
must be identical in size.
0-1 mm
Figure 2-38. Adapting an MDM to Fit a Cable (NEMA 4/4X Hardened Enclosure)
Discard the MDM’s solid center plug.

Test whether the cable fits snugly between the two halves of the MDM such that
the gap between the two blocks must be less than 1 mm (.04 in). Refer
to Figure 2-38.
If the gap is within 0 and 1 mm, skip to Step b.
40
Starting from the center of the MDM, peel away one layer of rubber (alternating
color shims) from each half of the MDM and check whether the cable fits snugly
between the two halves.
NOTE
The final gap between the two halves of the MDM should be less than 1 mm
(.04 in). Refer to Figure 2-38.
If the gap cable is greater than 1 mm (.04 in), peel away another layer and test the
fit. Continue peeling layers until you obtain a gap of less than 1 mm (.04 in).
NOTE
Small air gaps are removed by compressing the signal cable assembly (later in this
procedure).
b. Lubricate the MDM assembly.

A container of accessories inside the enclosure includes a tube of lubricant for this
purpose.
Figure 2-39. Lubricating an MDM Assembly (NEMA 4/4X Hardened Enclosure)
c. Place one half of an MDM assembly into the frame. Orient the MDM as shown
in Figure 2-40.
! CAUTION
The split between the two halves of the MDM must be vertical.
41
Figure 2-40. Mounting an MDM into the Signal Cable Port Frame
(NEMA 4/4X Hardened Enclosure)
d. Place the second half of the MDM beside the cable.

The two halves of the MDM assembly should fit together snugly with the cable
e. Continue in this manner for each of the cables and plugged MDMs.
f. Install the compression unit. Refer to Figure 2-41.
You can mount the compression unit in any location within the signal port frame
so long as it is oriented to expand and compress the MDMs.
g. From the inside of the enclosure, tighten the compression unit with a crescent
wrench or 1/2-inch socket wrench until no light shines through any of the MDM
modules.
NOTE
Stop turning when you have reached a torque setting of 8 to 10 lbs • ft (96 to
120 lbs • in).
42
Compression Unit
Figure 2-41. Tightening the Compression Unit (NEMA 4/4X Hardened Enclosure)
Viewed from outside the enclosure, the completed signal cable port should resemble Figure 2-42.
Regardless of the number of cables, their sizes, and their positions, your cable port must have a
tight seal.
Figure 2-42. Example of a Completed Signal Cable Port (NEMA 4/4X Hardened Enclosure)
Conduit Mount Assembly

Installing the conduits and fittings is your responsibility.
! CAUTION
To prevent power line noise, pass power cables through one conduit and pass
signal cables through another conduit.
To mount conduit to the enclosure:

1. Cut appropriately sized apertures through the enclosure.
43
It is suggested that you position the conduit apertures near the top of the enclosure to
minimize the loss of cool air.
2. Mount the conduits.
Provide the necessary gasket(s) to maintain a NEMA 4/4X rating.
Use a baffle inside each conduit to prevent the enclosure’s cool air from escaping
through the conduit.
The use of duct seal to ensure a tight seal is recommended.
3. Pass the signal cables through one conduit.
4. Pass power cables through the other conduit.
Connecting the NEMA 4/4X Enclosure to a Power Source

An electrician should connect a power cable of the proper size between the enclosure’s internal 4-
position power strip and an electrical junction box. Since the enclosure has no power switch, the
junction box must include an on/off switch, which should be connected to a 15 A circuit that is
separate from the air conditioner’s power supply.
NOTE
It is assumed that the computer equipment will run continuously.
Perform the following procedure to connect the enclosure to a power source. The steps include:
♦ Partially disassembling the round power cable port assembly
♦ Connecting the power cable to the enclosure’s internal power strip
♦ Reassembling the power cable port
♦ Connecting the power cable to a junction box.

The power cable port is a round assembly through which the enclosure’s power cable must pass. It
permits the cable to exit the enclosure while assuring a NEMA 4X seal.
The power cable port assembly is located on the left side of the enclosure toward the front of the
enclosure.
From the outside of the enclosure, use a hex key wrench to loosen the four compression screws
until you can pull out the bushing seal assembly. The bushing seal assembly includes the four
compression screws.
The assembly includes an MDM module, which separates into two halves.
Connecting the Power Cable to the 4-Position Power Strip

To connect power to the enclosure:
1. Pass the power cable through the power cable port.
NOTE
The cable diameter must be .165 inches minimum, .70 inches maximum.
44
2. Connect the power cable to the IEC-320 power strip by connecting the proper wires
(line, neutral, and ground) to the three bused terminals inside the power strip.

Adapt the MDM module to the cable.
Each module has two halves and an adaptable multidiameter core (MDM), including peelable
layers (shims) and a solid center plug.
NOTE
The front surface of the MDM splits into two halves. As you modify one half, simi-
larly modify the other half. The two halves must be identical in size.
1. Discard the MDM’s solid center plug.

2. Test whether the cable fits snugly between the two halves of the MDM such that the
gap between the two blocks must be less than 1 mm (.04 in). Refer to Figure 2-35.
If the gap is within 0 and 1 mm, skip to Step 5.
3. Starting from the center of the MDM, peel away one layer of rubber (shim) from each
half of the MDM and check whether the cable fits snugly between the two halves.
4. If the cable is still too large to fit snugly between the two halves, peel away another
layer and test the fit. Peel away as many layers are you need until the gap is less than
1 mm (.04 in) as illustrated in “Adapting an MDM to Fit a Cable (NEMA 4/4X
Hardened Enclosure)” on page 40.
NOTE
Small air gaps will be removed by compressing the power cable port assembly (later
in this procedure).
5. Lubricate the MDM assembly. Refer to “Lubricating an MDM Assembly (NEMA

4/4X Hardened Enclosure)” on page 41.
A container of accessories inside the enclosure includes a tube of lubricant for this
purpose.
6. Place both halves of the MDM around the power cable.
7. Slide the MDM into the power cable port.
The two halves of the MDM assembly should fit together snugly with the power cable
8. Tighten the four compression screws by alternately tightening two screws and then
the other two screws (similar to the way you tighten automotive tire lugs).
This method distributes pressure evenly across the power cable port assembly.
Connecting the Power Cable to a Junction Box

Connect the power cable to a junction box. The junction box must include an on/off switch and
should be connected to a 15 A circuit. Observe proper polarity when installing the power cable.
45
Installing the Processor and Modules into the NEMA 4/4X

Enclosure
1. Place the processor and peripheral equipment onto the enclosure’s bottom shelf.
Figure 2-43 shows typical workstation equipment for an enclosure configured for a
typical 50 Series system with A-, B-, C-, D- and F-size processors/modules. Refer to
Chapter 4 “System Module/Processor Installation” on page 116 for a description of
these processors/modules.

nector with the captive cap attached to the connector.
! CAUTION
For 70 Series processors, do not unplug the pointing device during computer opera-
tion. Unplugging the pointing device while the system is running causes the loss of
cursor control. Should the cursor freeze, plug in the pointing device and reboot the
system.
Grounding Internal Equipment

Each enclosure includes a grounding lug located near the 4-position power strip on the floor of
the enclosure. The grounding lug facilitates the grounding of TCAs or any other item requiring
access to the green wire ground.
Operation (NEMA 4/4X Hardened Enclosure)

The following sections describe how to use the enclosure and process equipment during normal
operation.
NOTE
A vortex-configured enclosure emits a high frequency sound when the vortex cooler
is running. This sound is louder when the enclosure is open, that is, when a door is
open.
50
Operating a Door
The following instructions describe how to unlock and open a door, or close and lock a door.
To unlock and open a door

1. Insert the key into the keyhole.
! WARNING
The interior of a vortex-configured enclosure is pressurized. Be prepared for the
door to slightly lunge forward as soon as the door is unlocked. To minimize the
door’s movement, press one hand against the door and turn the key with your other
hand.
2. While pushing the door toward the enclosure, turn the key counterclockwise until the
door unlocks.
3. Swing the door open.
To close and lock a door

1. Swing the door closed.
2. Insert the key into the keyhole.
3. While pushing the door toward the enclosure, turn the key clockwise.
The door locks into position.
Operating a Pointing Device
! CAUTION
Do not unplug the 70 Series pointing device. When the system is running, unplug-
ging the pointing device causes loss of cursor movement. Should the cursor freeze,
plug in the pointing device and reboot the system.
The pointer’s center button is pressure sensitive. The harder you press, the faster the pointer
moves across the screen. It takes some practice until you are able to move the pointer without
overshooting.
To move the pointer

♦ Press (rock) the center button toward the desired direction.
To make selections
♦ Use the left and right buttons to make selections, similar to using a mouse
or trackball. The top button is not used.
Operating a Keyboard
During operation, you can plug into or unplug the keyboard.
51
! CAUTION
Be careful not to short the keyboard’s connector pins.
Refer to “Disconnecting the 70 Series Processor’s Keyboard” on page 52.

For systems configured with only a pointing device (that is, without a keyboard), you can use the
standard computer keyboard (that is, a PS/2 style keyboard that is not hardened) for booting or
data entry.
To use the PS/2 style keyboard on a 70 Series system

1. Connect the standard PS/2 style keyboard’s connector to the P0913MX adapter cable
packed with the pointing device.
2. Locate the socket on the front of the enclosure marked with the symbol of a keyboard
located under the external shelf.
3. Unplug the captive cap that protects the socket when it is not in use.
4. Carefully plug the other end of the P0193MX adapter cable into the keyboard socket.
When you are done using the keyboard, unplug the keyboard and cap the socket to prevent water
from entering the socket.
To use a keyboard on a 50 Series system

1. Unplug the pointing device from the keyboard socket under the external shelf.
2. Connect the standard keyboard’s connector to the P0913MY adapter cable.
3. Plug the other end of the adapter cable (P0913MY) into the keyboard socket from
which you just removed the pointing device.
When you are done using the keyboard, unplug the keyboard and plug in the pointing device into
the connector to continue normal use.
Disconnecting the 70 Series Processor’s Keyboard

During operation, you can plug into or unplug the workstation’s keyboard. Be careful not to short
the keyboard’s connector pins.
70 Series processors require a keyboard to boot the system. You must remove the keyboard after
the processor has completed its boot sequence.
NOTE
A 70 Series processor configured with a pointing device (that is, without a key-
board/pointing device) may have a keyboard installed inside the enclosure.
Leaving the keyboard connected to the 70 Series processors inside the enclosure
allows the computer to boot while preventing operator access to the keyboard from
the outside.
52
Maintenance (NEMA 4/4X Hardened Enclosure)

The following sections describe the maintenance procedures for this enclosure.
Checking the Air Cooling System

If your enclosure’s air cooling system fails, the enclosure’s internal temperature rises, degrading the
workstation’s life. Occasional checks of the air cooling system are strongly recommended.
NOTE
You can ensure proper cooling by connecting the enclosure’s built-in thermostati-
cally controlled switch to an alarm device (such as a digital input channel of an
FBM17) and allowing the I/A Series software to monitor the cooling system. Alter-
natively, you can connect the thermostat’s normally open (NO) contact to an alarm
device of your choice.
The vortex cooler emits a high frequency sound and expels warm air up through the top of the
vortex unit.
Maintaining a Vortex Cooler

The vortex cooler has no moving parts and requires no maintenance.
The input line air filter needs replacement at periodic intervals. Refer to the manufacturer’s docu-
mentation supplied with the enclosure.
Maintaining an Air Conditioner

The air conditioner’s fans have a 50,000- to 60,000-hour lifetime, and the compressor unit is
rated with a 100,000-hour lifetime. No routine maintenance is necessary.
The air conditioning system is very quiet. You can check that it is working by opening the enclo-
sure’s back door and placing your hand near the air conditioner’s cold-air egress. You should feel a
cold flow of air into the enclosure.
Mounting Structures
Mounting structures are 19-inch wide frames for housing modules within an enclosure. The fol-
lowing paragraphs describe the types and installation of mounting structures and the types of
modules that each structure supports.
1x8, 2x8 Mounting Structures

The 1x8 mounting structure (see Figure 2-46) mounts in an IEMFA (ME24) or IEMFR (ME32)
metal enclosure, or mounts in a user-supplied 483 mm (19-inch) wide equipment frame. The 1x8
structure accepts processor X- and Z-Modules, Fieldbus Modules, and for AP20 configurations
only, data storage devices. (A 1x8 mounting structure requires a Y-adapter “Y-Adapter Installa-
tion” on page 147 in order to accept a Fieldbus Module.)
53
I O I O
Figure 2-46. 1x8 FBM Mounting Structure
Before you install a 1x8 mounting structure, ensure that mounting rails (DIN 46277 type) have
been installed for mounting the field termination connectors and the battery backup and status
tap assembly, if included. (Installation of these items is described later in this document.)
NOTE
Before proceeding with the 1x8 mounting structure mounting procedures, refer to
the Warning statement regarding separation of high- and low-voltage cables at the
beginning of this chapter on page 3.
Mount the 1x8 mounting structure according to your specific mounting requirements, as deter-
mined from the site planning specifications.
2x8 Mounting Structure

2x8 mounting structures are similar to two 1x8 structures, and are built into Industrial Enclosure
16 and 32 enclosures as configured at the time of order.
1x8, 2x8 Fieldbus Module (FBM) Mounting Structure

The 1x8 FBM mounting structure (see Figure 2-46) mounts in either an IEMFA (ME24) or
IEMFR (ME32) metal enclosure, or in a user-supplied rack. The structure is designed for mount-
ing in a standard 483 mm (19-in) EIA enclosure.
The 1x8 FBM mounting structure accepts only Fieldbus Modules. FBMs in either the four left- or
right-hand slots may be assigned to the upper or lower Fieldbus (refer to “Fieldbus Configuration
and Local Extension (1x8, 1x12, 2x8 FBM)” on page 205 for configuration and Fieldbus exten-
sion information.)
The left section of the mounting structure can contain up to four power modules, each providing
power to four FBMs. The upper power modules supply primary power and the lower ones supply
backup power. Circuit breakers are mounted above each pair of power modules.
A printed circuit board at the top of the FBM mounting structure and receptacles on the rear
crossmember provide power and process I/O bus connections to the modules. This design elimi-
54
nates the need for Y-adapters required to mount Fieldbus Modules as in conventional 1×8 mount-
ing structures in which power is supplied by a mounting structure bus.
2x8 FBM Mounting Structure

2x8 FBM mounting structures are similar to two 1x8 FBM structures, and are built into Indus-
trial Enclosure 16 and 32 as configured at the time of order. (Refer to “Fieldbus Configuration
and Local Extension (1x8, 1x12, 2x8 FBM)” on page 205 for configuration and Fieldbus exten-
sion information.)
1x12 Fieldbus Module (FBM) Mounting Structure

The 1x12 FBM mounting structure (see Figure 2-47) is a rack mounted assembly designed to
hold up to 12 Fieldbus Modules, or 11 Fieldbus Modules and 2 Fieldbus Isolators. It has 12
molded connector blocks for the Modules and Isolators, which are numbered 1 to 12 (left to
right) on the front of the structure. This structure accepts only Fieldbus Modules and does not
require Y-adapters (unlike the “1x8, 2x8 Mounting Structures” on page 53). FBMs in any of the
12 slots can be assigned to the upper or lower Fieldbus (refer to “Fieldbus and Nodebus Cabling”
on page 191). All 12 slots can be assigned to a single fieldbus. It is supplied with all necessary
hardware to support it in the following packages:
♦ 1x12 FBM Configurable Mounting Structure Kit (includes up to five 1x12 FBM
mounting structures)
♦ Fieldbus Module Metal Enclosure 60 (includes five 1x12 FBM mounting structures
and a specially designed metal enclosure).
The 1x12 FBM Configurable Mounting Structure Kit is a flexibly designed package which allows
you to install up to five 1x12 FBM mounting structures, depending on the number of FBMs you
want to support. The complete hardware for powering, grounding, communications, and moni-
toring the structures and their FBMs is included in this kit, tailored to your specific configuration.
You supply the metal enclosure which meets the necessary requirements outlined in the 1x12
Fieldbus Module Mounting Structure Installation and Wiring Instructions document (B0400PK).
The Fieldbus Module Metal Enclosure 60 (ME60) package includes a 800 x 800 x 2000 mm
(31.5 x 31.5 x 86.6 in) vented metal enclosure, five 1x12 FBM mounting structures and all
equipment required to provide power and communications for up to 60 FBMs. This configura-
tion provides the maximum number of FBMs with the smallest footprint and lowest cost in a sin-
gle enclosure. The ME60 has front and rear doors for access to mount FBMs, TCAs, and their
associated wiring.
Also available are two complete packages which incorporate the 1x12 FBM mounting structure,
and can mount 12 FBMs directly without requiring Y-adapters. This structure does not support
the installation of any other type of module.

50 Series Modular Mounting Structures

50 Series Modular Mounting Structures are available both as a single-height frame (referred to as
an MMS) or a double-height frame (referred to as a 2xMMS). Both types of structures are 483
mm (19 in) wide. The MMS (Figure 2-48) is designed to house 50 Series A-, B-, and D-size mod-
ules (see “50 Series, 70 Series, and Server 70 Module/Processor Installation” on page 108). It
mounts in IEMFA/ IEMFR (ME24/ME32) metal enclosures or in a user-supplied rack.
The 2xMMS (Figure 2-49) is designed to house 50 Series A-, B-, C-, D-, E-, and F-size mod-
ules/processors (see “50 Series, 70 Series, and Server 70 Module/Processor Installation” on
page 108). There are two versions of the 2xMMS: one for use in metal enclosures (Foxboro part
number P0971EA) and one for use in plastic (Industrial) enclosures (Foxboro part number
P0971EB). The 2xMMS structure can be configured to mount up to two rows of 50 Series mod-
ules either all or part of the way across its width. Additional mounting hardware provides an
optional moveable partition which divides the 2xMMS into two sections, provided in the follow-
ing kits:
♦ Kit P0971YC - for 2xMMS for metal enclosures (P0971EA)
♦ Kit P0971YD - for 2xMMS for plastic enclosures (P0971EB).
A-, B-, and D-size modules are installed on the left side of this partition, and C-size, E-size, and F-
size processors are installed on the right. Up to two E-sized processor can be installed in the
2xMMS for the metal enclosures, and one E-sized processor can be installed in the 2xMMS for
the Industrial Enclosure 32. Refer to “2xMMS Module/Processor Configurations” on page 116
for a complete list of module and processor configurations which can be placed in the 2xMMS
structures.
56
The 2xMMS structure is preinstalled by The Foxboro Company at the time of your order.
The partition (if required) is installed by you to provide the appropriate partitioning for the mod-
ules.

3. Power and Earth (Ground)
Connections
This chapter describes how to set up power and earth (grounding) connections for I/A Series
system equipment.
! WARNING
To prevent electrical shock hazard, connection of this equipment to your main
power source(s) must be made using wiring methods that conform to local electrical
code requirements.
The system main power and earth distribution networks are described in the Site Planning docu-
ment (B0193AB). The following subsections present procedures which describe the power and
earth connections to the individual I/A Series units. These procedures assume that the power and
earth networks described in the above document are in place before you install the equipment.
NOTE
The term “secondary power” used in the following text is also commonly referred to
as “backup power.”
! WARNING
To prevent electrical shock hazard and signal interference, high voltage main power
cables (those carrying 30 V rms or greater, or 60 V dc or greater) must be kept sepa-
rate from low voltage signal cables (those carrying less than 30 V rms, or less than
60 V dc). Separate conduit, cable runs, and so forth, must be used, as well as sepa-
rate cable entry into the enclosure. The minimum allowable separation between
high and low voltage cables is 50 mm (2 in), at all points in the cable run.
Main Power Connections

Main power consists of primary and secondary power. Note the following voltage and main power
distribution requirements for each enclosure before you connect main power:
♦ Voltage – The I/A Series enclosures accept either of the following types of main
power:
♦ ac – 100, 120, 220, or 240 V.
♦ dc – 24 or 125 V — Exceptions: The AP50/51, WP50/51, AW50/51
processors do not accept dc power.
Mounting structures for the 50 Series use only primary ac power. An optional ac
transfer switch may be used with these structures if required. This switch feeds either a
primary or a secondary ac power source to power 50 Series equipment as long as one
65
B0193AC – Rev T 3. Power and Earth (Ground) Connections
of the input feeds is available. 1x8, 1x8 FBM, 2x8, and 2x8 FBM mounting structures
can use both primary and secondary power.
To determine the voltage used by an enclosure, refer to the equipment data label on
the enclosure.
♦ Main Power Distribution – An enclosure can accept redundant (for example, non-
stop) or non-redundant (for example, backup or battery backup) power. To
determine the power used by the individual enclosures in your system, review the
power distribution information developed during the site planning phase.
! WARNING
To avoid personal injury or equipment damage, ensure that main system power is
turned off before proceeding with the primary power connections.
NOTE
For simplicity, the power distribution and connection diagrams in this section show
main and backup power as being both ac or both dc. In practice, however, dc power
may be used to back up ac, or ac power can be used to back up dc.
Industrial Enclosure 16, Power Connections

To connect the power lines refer to Figure 3-1 and Figure 3-2, and proceed as follows:
2. Open the right side door of the enclosure to access the junction boxes. (Two junction
boxes are located in the field termination area.)
3. Place the junction box power switches in the OFF position.
4. Remove the bottom cover from each junction box by inserting the hex driver tool
(X0197AZ) into the access hole, applying pressure, and lifting the cover from its
place.
5. Route the power lines to the junction boxes.
6. Connect the power lines as shown in Figure 3-3 (for ac power), or Figure 3-4 (for dc
power).
7. Replace the junction box covers. Power is supplied to the internal 2x8 or 2x8 FBM
mounting structures via the power out connectors.

inputs; one to supply the one of the MMS structures; the other to supply the 2x8 mounting struc-
ture. The secondary is not jumpered between these structures (conduit is a dashed line) in Option
2. The other options, if needed, are variations of discrete primary and/or secondary mains distri-
bution, and must be wired by the user.

I/A Series Metal Industrial Enclosures, Power Connection

The I/A Series Metal Industrial Enclosures include the IEMFA (ME24) and IEMFR (ME32) and
the metal FE8. In the IEMFA (ME24) and IEMFR (ME32) Enclosure, the junction box is
located at the lower left, accessible from the front of the enclosure. In the metal FE8
enclosure, the junction box is accessible from the rear of the enclosure, located in the right-center
when facing the rear of the enclosure. Basically, the same type of junction box is used for both
types of enclosures; thus, the power connection procedures as presented here pertain to both the
IEMFA (ME24) and IEMFR (ME32) and the metal FE8.
2. Remove the cover from the junction box by removing the four screws holding it in
place.
3. Route the power lines to the box and connect them as shown in Figure 3-23.
NOTE
When using primary power only, add the connections between the Line, Neutral,
and Earth (ground) leads from the primary input side to the secondary power ter-
minal block as shown in Figure 3-23 in order to power all fans in the enclosure. The
temperature within the enclosure could become excessive if these connections are
not made for a primary power only configuration.

Peripheral Devices, Power Connections

The peripheral devices that use primary ac power are:
♦ Dot-matrix printer 80
♦ Color dot-matrix printer 132
♦ Color PostScript printer
♦ VT100 compatible printer
♦ 17-inch workstation displays
♦ 21-inch workstation displays
♦ GCIO interface module.
NOTE
The 50 Series processors and data storage devices, which also use ac power, are not
considered peripheral devices, but are termed 50 Series modules. The connection of
ac power to these devices is described in Chapter 4 “System Module/Processor
Installation”.
! WARNING
Before making the ac power line connections for a peripheral device, ensure that the
voltage available at the ac receptacle matches that indicated on the device data label.
Each peripheral device includes a power cord. Plug the cord for the device into the
appropriate ac source outlet.
The cord sets for the following devices are shipped detached from the units:
♦ 21-inch workstation display (WP70, AW70, WP50/51, and AW50/51-Based)
♦ GCIO interface module.
Attach the cord set to the ac input connector at the rear of the device, then plug into the appropri-
ate ac source outlet.
86
! WARNING
If you substitute an alternate type of plug (or other connection) for the one
supplied with the power cord, shock hazard protection requires that you follow
proper polarity and safety earthing (grounding) method.
Panel Display Station, Power Connections
! WARNING
Before making the ac power line connections for a Panel Display Station, ensure

Equipment Earth (Ground) Connections

NOTE
The earth connections described in this section are required only in high noise envi-
ronments.
All system units must be connected to system earth, as described in the Site Planning
document. The peripheral devices are earthed through the earth wire in their power cords. The
I/A Series enclosures are earthed using one of three configurations:
♦ A power distribution panel dedicated to the I/A Series equipment
♦ An existing power distribution panel (shared with non I/A Series equipment)
♦ An existing power distribution panel (shared with non I/A Series equipment) in a high
noise environment.
The following sections describe how to make earth connections within the I/A Series
enclosures, as required in the third configuration listed above (using an existing power
distribution panel in a high noise environment).
Field Enclosure 4, Earth Connections

To make the earth connections to these enclosures:
1. Locate the enclosure earth bus. It is at the lower-rear section in Field Enclosure 4 (see
Figure 3-32).
2. Strip and tin the cable, and connect the cable to a spare terminal on the enclosure
earth bus.

I/A Series Metal Enclosures, Earth Connections

The I/A Series metal enclosures include the IEMFA (ME24) and IEMFR (ME32), the metal
Field Enclosure 8 (metal FE8), and the termination enclosure.
NOTE
Earthing (grounding) of the IEMFA (ME24) and IEMFR (ME32) and metal FE8
enclosures through a separate chassis earth connection is not necessary, as safety and
noise-suppression earthing is provided by the green or green-yellow wire earth cable.
A separate (system earth) connection to these enclosures is recommended only when
the enclosure is installed in a high noise environment (noisy green wire earth).
To make earth connections to the I/A Series metal enclosures, locate one of the tapped holes (M8
size) along the bottom interior of the enclosure (see Figure 3-33). Use a ring type solderless crimp
connector appropriate for the size of wire used, and use a star-type lockwasher between the con-
nector and the enclosure chassis.

50 Series ac Power Transfer Switch

The 50 Series ac power transfer switch supports continuous operation of 50 Series devices by pro-
viding access to a reliable ac power source. One ac 50 Series transfer switch can supply power to
all the configurable devices in a 50 Series enclosure or MIW bay. The maximum transfer time
90
during a line failure or low voltage condition is 30 ms. The switch can be mounted in an MMS
structure, or vertically on a DIN rail in an enclosure.
Installation instructions are furnished with the ac transfer switch kit P0912YG/YH, or
P0970WU/WV/WW.
External Memory Battery Backup and Status Tap

The External Memory Battery Backup and Status Tap option may be used with the following
enclosures and mounting structures:
♦ I/A Series Metal Enclosures
♦ Field Enclosures 4 and 83
♦ 1x8 Mounting Structure
♦ 1x8 FBM Mounting Structure
♦ 2x8 FBM Mounting Structure.
External Memory Battery Backup

External memory battery backup provides a means of supplying external, user-supplied
battery backup power, nominally 18 V ± 10%, to the 20, 30, and 40 Series modules
(X-Modules, Z-Modules, and Fieldbus Modules) in the above enclosures. With external
batteries connected, backup power is available for the associated system modules in the event the
main input power fails.
External Status Tap

The external status tap allows reporting of Industrial Power Module (IPM) failure status to two
destinations: to a user-supplied monitoring or alarm device or, via an I/A Series FBM, to the
I/A Series system management software.
IPM failure status is routed via separate lines in the intermediate power (IP) bus. Each IPM
provides a pair of normally open grounded common contacts which, when closed, indicate a fail-
ure. Ratings of each contact are as follows:
Switching Voltage 30 V dc
Current Carrying Capacity 0.1 A dc
Power Rating 3W
For IPMs 02 through 06, the contact closure indicates a failed module (output voltage out of tol-
erance). For the fan power modules (IPMs 07 through 09), the contact closure indicates an open
connection to the fan, voltage out of tolerance, or low fan rotational speed.
The external status tap allows status wiring in either of two configurations:
♦ To a user-supplied monitoring or alarm device for external monitoring or alarming of
the IPM status.
3.
Since these enclosures do not have a mounting structure, two status tap cables are required.
91
♦ To the input of a Fieldbus Module (FBM). This produces a process alarm message via
the I/A Series system software to alert the operator of an IPM failure.
Typical Enclosure Power Distribution

Figure 3-36 shows, for reference purposes, power distribution for a typical enclosure. The junc-
tion box receives factory power, which is fed to the industrial power modules (IPMs), which in
turn supply clean, unregulated power (intermediate power) for the system modules. The mount-
ing structure bus distributes the intermediate power to each mounting structure slot. (The inter-
mediate power bus also carries IPM failure status information.)
Memory battery backup power is supplied from batteries within selected industrial power mod-
ules (IPMs), and optionally (using the external memory battery backup and status tap assemblies)
from external, user-supplied batteries. Memory battery backup power is distributed over the same
intermediate power buses and mounting structure buses as the primary power.
NOTE
The following notes apply:
1. Field Enclosure 4 does not use a mounting structure or a mounting structure bus.
Power distribution is similar, however; with intermediate power being produced by
power modules, and distributed to each Fieldbus Module via a built-in bus.
2. The Foxboro Company assembles the power cabling (that is, input power bus
cabling and intermediate power bus cabling) for the enclosure before shipment.
3. I/A Series enclosures are shipped with the appropriate industrial power modules
(IPMs) installed. For future reference, however, note that only power modules of a
similar type (such as, all IPM02s) may be attached to the same input power bus. The
only exceptions are (1) the fan power modules, which are attached to the same input
power bus as the other power modules, and (2) backup power modules IPM06 (A and
D) and IPM03, which are sometimes used side-by-side in a power backup scheme.

External Memory Battery Backup and Status Tap Assembly

Descriptions
Four types of external memory battery backup and status tap assemblies are available:
♦ P0911RX, External Memory Battery Backup and Status Tap Assembly for use with
1x8 and 2x8 mounting structures (Figure 3-37). This assembly is intended for use
with enclosures employing non-redundant (that is, backup or battery backup) main
power.
♦ P0911RW, External Status Tap (only) Assembly for use with 1x8 and 2x8 mounting
structures (Figure 3-38). This assembly is intended for use in nonstop (redundant)
power configurations.
NOTE
Either of the above cable assemblies is installed in line with the intermediate power
bus cable to provide external entry of memory battery backup power and/or “tap-
ping” into the status lines in the intermediate power bus. Both cable assemblies have
integral fusing for overcurrent protection.
♦ P0711CU, External Memory Battery Backup and Status Tap Assembly for use with
1x8 FBM and 2x8 FBM mounting structures (Figure 3-39). This assembly is
intended for use with enclosures employing non-redundant (for example, backup or
battery backup) main power.
93
♦ P0904EV, External Status Tap (only) Assembly for use with 1x8 FBM and 2x8 FBM
mounting structures (Figure 3-40). This assembly is intended for use in nonstop
(redundant) power configurations.

External Memory Battery Backup and Status Tap Installation

Instructions for installing the battery backup and status tap differ depending on the type of
mounting structure used.
95
External Battery Backup and Status Tap Installation for 1x8 and
2x8 Mounting Structures
NOTE
1. The following procedure does not apply to the 1x8 FBM and 2x8 FBM mount-
ing structures.
2. For systems configured with only primary power, connect the cable assembly to
the primary connector of the mounting structure.
3. Field Enclosure 4 does not include mounting structure buses, but the connec-
tions are similar to those described here.
To install the external memory battery backup and status tap assembly for the 1x8 or 2x8 mount-
ing structure, proceed as follows:
1. Mount the battery backup and status tap connectors on the DIN rail of the enclosure
in question.
2. Make the connections as indicated in Figure 3-37 and Figure 3-41, or Figure 3-38
and Figure 3-41. Note that the mounting structure bus shown in Figure 3-41 is for a
2x8 mounting structure. It is important to note that the connections for the 1x8
mounting structure are inverted – with the backup connection on the top and pri-
mary connection on the bottom.
3. Make the external battery connections (if applicable) as shown in Figure 3-37. Con-
nect the battery leads to the “-” and “+” 18 V terminals. The G (GND) terminal is
provided for use per local wiring practice, if required.
4. Make the external status tap connections as described under “External Status Tap
Connections” on page 97.

External Battery Backup and Status Tap Installation for 1x8 FBM
and 2x8 FBM Mounting Structures
To install the external memory battery backup and status tap assembly for the 1x8 FBM or
2x8 FBM mounting structure, proceed as follows:
1. Referring to Figure 3-39 or Figure 3-40 (whichever pertains), mount the battery
backup and status tap connector(s) on the DIN rail of the enclosure in question. Con-
nect the earth (ground) lead from the status tap connector(s) to a screw on the DIN
rail.
2. Referring to Figure 3-39 or Figure 3-40 (whichever pertains), connect the FBM status
connector to the status socket located on the rear of the 1x8 FBM or 2x8 FBM
mounting structure.
3. Make the external battery connections (if applicable) as shown in Figure 3-39. Con-
nect the battery leads to the “-” and “+” 18 V terminals. The G (GND) terminal is
provided for use per local wiring practice, if required.
4. Make the external status tap connections as described under “External Status Tap
Connections” (below).
External Status Tap Connections

NOTE
If you check the operation of the IPM status contacts with an ohm meter, place the
positive ohm meter lead on the A terminal of the status tap assembly, and the nega-
tive lead on the C (COMM) terminal. (Reversing these connections causes an error
indication.) This polarity is necessary because the contact inputs have blocking
diodes in series with them, making the measurement polarity-sensitive.
Status Connections to External Monitoring or Alarm Device

To make IPM status tap connections to an external (user-supplied) monitoring or alarm device,
refer to Figure 3-42 and make the connections as shown. Use of 22 AWG wire is
recommended for the connections. Figure 3-37 through Figure 3-40 show the status tap assembly
connection points.

1.
If a status tap input is used for a particular channel, the adjacent channel in the pair
must be left unused, or used with an isolated (ungrounded) contact.
2.
If a status tap input is used for a particular channel, all other channels must be left
unused, or used with isolated (ungrounded) contacts.
To make IPM status tap connections to a Fieldbus Module, refer to Figure 3-43 and make the
connections as shown. Use of 22 AWG wire is recommended for the connections. Figure 3-37
through Figure 3-40 show the status tap assembly connection points.
NOTE
The following notes apply to the status tap assembly:
1. Contact input connections to an FBM require observation of specific rules
regarding isolated/nonisolated characteristics of the inputs.
2. If you check the operation of the IPM status contacts with an ohm meter, place
the positive ohm meter lead on the A terminal of the status tap assembly, and the
negative lead on the Comm terminal. (Reversing these connections will cause an
erroneous indication.) This is necessary because the contact inputs have blocking
diodes in series with them, making the measurement polarity-sensitive.

Each of these modules assumes its intended function when the appropriate module identifier (let-
terbug set) is inserted. (The module identifier allows the system software to identify the module
according to its specific function.)
6.
P/N is short for part number.
107
The system modules are shipped separate from the enclosures in which they are to be installed.
When installing the modules, ensure that they are inserted in their assigned slots in the enclosures.
Also, ensure that the connecting pins on a module are aligned before inserting the module into
the slot.
A 4 mm (0.156 in) hex driver tool (Foxboro part number X0179AZ) is required for tightening or
loosening mounting screws on the modules. This tool is also used to install the Y-adapters.
Information on the placement of the system modules in the enclosures is contained in the infor-
mation developed during the site planning phase.
50 Series, 70 Series, and Server 70 Module/Processor

Installation
This section describes how to install a 50 Series module or processor, or a 70 Series processor, in
one of the following locations:
♦ In a Modular Industrial Workstation (may require a modular mounting structure
(MMS))
♦ In a Modular Industrial Console (may require a modular mounting structure (MMS))
♦ In a NEMA 4/4X enclosure (see page 31)
♦ In a metal or plastic enclosure (requires modular mounting structure (MMS or
2xMMS))
♦ An MMS (see page 57) and a 2xMMS for metal enclosures (P0971EA - see
page 58) can be installed in a metal enclosure (for example, IEMFA/IEMFR -see
page 20)
♦ a 2xMMS for plastic enclosures (P0971EB - see page 58) can be installed in any
plastic Industrial Enclosure (for example, IE16/IE32 - see page 3).
Due to its size, the Server 70 cannot be located in the mounting structures.
Separate procedures for installing these modules and processors in each of their applicable loca-
tions are provided below.
NOTE
The 50 Series modules and processors accept only ac power.
Server 70 Processor Installation

The Server 70 processor can be mounted:
♦ as part of a Modular Industrial Console (MIC)
♦ on the 14” wide straight spacer worksurface
♦ in the 14” wide straight spacer section for minitowers, or
♦ on the desk/printer table, provided their is adequate space for the Server 70’s base and
cabling.
Also, it can be placed on flat surfaces in commercially-available enclosures that have provisions for
adequate ventilation and cooling to ensure the ambient temperature inside the enclosure does not
exceed 95°F.
108
NOTE
Enclosures must accommodate a depth of at least 27 in (685 mm) to allow space for
cables at the back of the unit. Because of the large depth, the Server 70
processors cannot be mounted inside the standard Foxboro enclosures, such as the
Industrial Enclosure 32, Metal Enclosure 32, and Modular Industrial
Workstations.

Hardened Enclosure
To install a 50 Series module or processor, or a 70 Series processor, in a NEMA 4/4X
hardened enclosure, refer to “Installing the Processor and Modules into the NEMA 4/4X Enclo-
sure” on page 46 for complete instructions.
50 Series and 70 Series Modules/Processors in a MMS or 2xMMS

Modular mounting structures (MMS) and dual-height modular mounting structures (2xMMS)
are metal frames that support the 50 Series modules and processors, and 70 Series processors, in
the plastic and metal I/A Series enclosures.
These structures are described in detail in “50 Series Modular Mounting Structures” on page 56.
First, determine which mounting structure to use with your modules or processors:
♦ 50 Series A-size, B-size, or D-size modules can be mounted in a MMS installed in a
metal enclosure (ex. IEMFA/IEMFR, described on page 20), Modular Industrial
Workstation (MIW), or Modular Industrial Console (MIC).
♦ 50 Series modules or processors, or 70 Series processors, can be mounted in a 2xMMS
for metal enclosure (P0971EA) installed in a metal enclosure (IEMFA/IEMFR,
described on page 20), with parts from kit P0971YC.
! CAUTION
The 50 Series E-size processor requires kit P0971VE for proper installation in a
metal enclosure with a front door hinged on the left side, or kit P0971VK for
proper installation in a metal enclosure with a front door hinged on the right side.
♦ 50 Series modules or processors, or 70 Series processors can be mounted in a 2xMMS

for plastic enclosures (P0971EB), in a plastic enclosure (IE16/IE32, described on
page 3), with parts from kit P0971YD.
! CAUTION
The 50 Series E-size and F-size processors and 70 Series processor can only be
installed in the IE32 enclosure, not the IE16 enclosure. The E-size processors
require kit P0971VF to complete installation in this plastic enclosure.
To install the processors and/or modules:
110
1. If the MMS or 2xMMS is not already installed in its respective enclosure, you must
mount it, as described in “Installing the MMS into the Enclosure” on page 111,
and/or “Installing the 2xMMS into the Enclosure” on page 112.
2. For 2xMMS for metal enclosures (P0971EA) only: install the PDU mounting bracket
on the front rails with the 2xMMS, as described in “Installing the PDU Mounting
Bracket (2xMMS in Metal Enclosure Only)” on page 114.
3. Determine the exact configuration of modules and processors in your mounting struc-
ture, as described in “MMS Module Configurations” on page 115, and “2xMMS
Module/Processor Configurations” on page 116.
4. Set up the SCSI addresses on the B-size and D-size modules, as described in
“AP50/51-, and AW50/51-Based Data Storage Device Address Settings” on page 157.
5. Set up the stop clip assemblies for the modules you are installing in the mounting
structure, as described in “Setting Up the Stop Clip Assemblies (If Necessary)” on
page 120.
6. If you are installing modules in an existing mounting structure, remove the existing
adjacent modules (if necessary), as described in “Depopulating the MMS or 2xMMS
(for Modules Only)” on page 121.
7. If you have a 2xMMS, install the 50 Series and 70 Series processors in the 2xMMS
with the spacers included in kit P0971YC and P0971YD, as described in “Installing
the Processors in the 2xMMS” on page 124.
8. Install the 50 Series A-size, B-size, and D-size modules in the mounting structure, as
described in “Installing the 50 Series Modules and Mounting Hardware” on page 132
and “Installing Front and Rear Stop Assemblies (D-Size Modules Only)” on page 138.
9. If you are installing an E-size processor into:
♦ a metal enclosure with a front door hinged on the left side, install kit P0971VE.
♦ a metal enclosure with a front door hinged on the right side, install kit P0971VK.
♦ a plastic IE32 enclosure, install kit P0971VF.
Installation instructions for these kits are located in the Model 51, Style D and E Pro-
cessor Instructions for MIC, MIW, IEMFA/IEMFR (ME24/32), and IE32
Installation document (B0400PL).
Once these steps are complete, you have finished installing the 50 Series modules or processors, or
70 Series processors, into the mounting structure.
Installing the MMS into the Enclosure

The MMS is shipped already installed in its appropriate enclosure, so you do not need to install it.
However, if you need to mount the MMS into:
♦ an MIW, refer to the Modular Industrial Workstation Installation (B0193CE)
document for installation instructions.
♦ an MIC, refer to the Modular Industrial Console Installation (B0193UV) document for
installation instructions.
Proceed to “MMS Module Configurations” on page 115 to determine the exact configuration of
modules and processors in your mounting structure.
111
Installing the 2xMMS into the Enclosure

If your 2xMMS does not already reside in its appropriate enclosure, you must install it in its
enclosure. Since there are two forms of the 2xMMS (for metal enclosures and for plastic enclo-
sures), two sets of instructions are provided below.
If the 2xMMS is already installed, skip to “MMS Module Configurations” on page 115, or
“2xMMS Module/Processor Configurations” on page 116, depending on your specific needs.
2xMMS for Metal Enclosures (P0971EA) Installation

The following procedure pertains to an 2xMMS in a metal enclosure, such as IEFMA, IEFMR, or
user-supplied 483 mm (19 in) rack enclosures. Refer to Figure 4-8 and Figure 4-9 below.
1. If the 2xMMS must contain 50 Series E-size processors, or 70 Series processors, attach
two power outlet assemblies (P0970NP) to the outside of each 2xMMS, as shown in
Figure 4-8, if they are not already installed there. If these assemblies are attached to
the inside of the 2xMMS, you must remove them and reinstall them on the outer
edges.
For any other module or processor, attach two power outlet assemblies (P0970NP) to
the inside of each 2xMMS, as shown in Figure 4-8, if they are not already installed
there.
2. Insert the 2xMMS into the enclosure, aligning the mounting holes of the 2xMMS
with the holes in the rail of the enclosure, as shown in Figure 4-9. Attach the 2xMMS
to the holes in the rail using nut clips and associated screws for the given enclosure.
3. Connect the 2xMMS power cords (part of the power cable assemblies installed in
Step 1, if installed) to the power source junction box in the enclosure.

Installing the PDU Mounting Bracket (2xMMS in Metal Enclosure Only)

If you have a 2xMMS in a metal enclosure, you must install the PDU mounting bracket
(P0971YK) on the 19-inch rails either above or below the 2xMMS. This mounting bracket is
included in kit P0971YC.
If this bracket is already installed, skip to “2xMMS Module/Processor Configurations” on
page 116.
Attach the bracket:
♦ above the 2xMMS, if it is installed alone without any additional mounting structures
in the metal enclosure, or
♦ below the 2xMMS, if a single height modular mounting structure (MMS) is installed
below the 2xMMS.
Secure the edges of the bracket to the 19-inch rails with the four screws (X0127DD), four lock-
washers (X0143SC), and flat washers (X0143AT), in that order, as shown in Figure 4-11. These
screws and washers are included in kit P0971YC).

MMS Module Configurations

You must now determine the exact configuration of modules in your modular mounting structure
(MMS). Refer to the information developed during the site planning phase to determine the
approximate position designated for each module and/or processor.
An MMS can accept certain combinations of A-, B-, and D-size modules. Once loaded, the MMS
can be installed in an enclosure, Modular Industrial Workstation (MIW) or Modular Industrial
Console (MIC).
The MMS does not require any additional mounting hardware.
Determine the type and quantity of modules which you will be installing in the MMS. Refer to
Table 4-1 to determine the possible combinations of different size modules allowable within an
MMS. Each row represents a separate allowable configuration in the MMS.

For all your B-size and D-size modules, set up the SCSI addresses as described in “AP50/51-, and
AW50/51-Based Data Storage Device Address Settings” on page 157. Once you have completed
this procedure, proceed to “Setting Up the Stop Clip Assemblies (If Necessary)” on page 120.
2xMMS Module/Processor Configurations

You must now determine the exact configuration of modules and processors in your dual-height
modular mounting structure (2xMMS). Refer to the information developed during the site plan-
ning phase to determine the approximate position designated for each module and/or processor.
A 2xMMS can accept a combination of A-, B-, and D-size modules, and C-size, E-size and
F-size processors (Model 51, Style B, C, D, and E processors), as shown in Figure 4-12 below.
There are two types of 2xMMSes:
♦ one for IE16/32 enclosures (P0971EB) which is 315 mm (12.4 in) wide, and
♦ one for metal enclosures (P0971EA), which is 430 mm (16.8 in) wide.
You require mounting hardware supplied in the following kits to install the modules and
processors in a new 2xMMS:
♦ Kit P0971YC - for 2xMMS for metal enclosures (P0971EA)
♦ Kit P0971YD - for 2xMMS for plastic enclosures (P0971EB).
If these kits have already been installed in your 2xMMS, you do not need to reinstall them.

For any B-size and D-size modules you may have, set up their SCSI addresses as described in
“AP50/51-, and AW50/51-Based Data Storage Device Address Settings” on page 157. Once you
have completed this procedure, you must set up the stop clip assemblies, if necessary, for the A-
size, B-size, and D-size modules.
Setting Up the Stop Clip Assemblies (If Necessary)

The stop clip assembly (P0971KZ), shipped with each A-size, B-size, and D-size module, includes
two stop clips and one stop plate. The clips are used to align the fronts of the modules in a com-
mon plane. These clips must be placed in the assembly.
If you are not installing any A-size, B-size, or D-size modules, skip to “Depopulating the MMS or
2xMMS (for Modules Only)” on page 121.
Determine which type of module will be placed on either side of the stop clip assembly. If you are
unsure, refer to “MMS Module Configurations” on page 115 and “2xMMS Module/Processor
Configurations” on page 116.
Install the stop clips in the stop clip assembly (P0971KZ) in the correct spaces for the A-size, B-
size, or D-size modules used with this assembly, as shown in Figure 4-15.
NOTE
The two stop clip locations on the stop clip assembly are necessary because the
length of the A- and B-size modules, when side-mounted in an MMS or 2xMMS, is
shorter than the length of the side-mounted D-size modules. Refer to the beginning
of this chapter for dimensions of these modules.

You have completed depopulating the MMS or 2xMMS for the new module(s), and setting up
the spacer assemblies.
If you are installing processors into a 2xMMS, proceed to the following section. Otherwise, skip
to “Installing the 50 Series Modules and Mounting Hardware” on page 132.
123
Installing the Processors in the 2xMMS

Instructions to install the 50 Series C-size, E-size, F-size, and 70 Series processors into the
2xMMS are provided below. You should install the 70 Series processor and/or E-size processor
first, then the F-size processor, then the C-size processor, if applicable.
If you are not installing any processors in a 2xMMS, skip to “Installing the 50 Series Modules and
Mounting Hardware” on page 132.
NOTE
The 2xMMS must be stripped empty of any pre-existing modules, processors, and
mounting hardware, if you have not done so already, before the processors can be
installed. The installation of additional processors in the 2xMMS forces the divider
in the center of the 2xMMS to be moved, changing the 2xMMS’ internal configura-
tion. See “Depopulating the MMS or 2xMMS (for Modules Only)” on page 121.
70 Series Processors
70 Series processors are workstations with mini-tower forms, and do not require any additional
hardware for 2xMMS installation. Place the 70 Series processor against the right side of the
2xMMS. Ensure that the processor is not upside down, that its base does not hang more than 4 in
(100 mm) over the front edge of the 2xMMS, and that its faceplate faces toward the front.
In the 2xMMS for metal enclosures, you can install a second 70 Series processor to the left of the
first one.
70 Series processors cannot be used in the 2xMMS if they are set in a wide plastic base (such as
the Enterprise Pentium II 70 Series processor, see page 605 and page 620). Remove this base
before installing the processor in a 2xMMS.
You have completed the installation procedure for the 70 Series processors. Plug the ac power cord
of the processor into the outlet strip nearest the processor when finished with all
associated installation procedures for the 2xMMS.
Proceed to install additional processors, or skip to “Installing the 50 Series Modules and Mount-
ing Hardware” on page 132.
E-Size (Model 51, Style E) Processors

If you are installing the E-size (Model 51, Style E) processor in a IEMFA/IEMFR (ME24/32)
metal enclosure, or a plastic Industrial Enclosure 32 (IE32), you must replace the front door of
the enclosure after you have finished the procedures described in this chapter.
You require:
♦ Kit P0971VE if the front door of the IEMFA/IEMFR (ME24/32) is left-hinged, or
♦ Kit P0971VK if the front door on the IEMFA/IEMFR (ME24/32) is right-hinged, or
♦ Kit P0971VF for the IE32.
and IE32 Installation (B0400PL) for door replacement procedures after you have completed
installing equipment in your respective 2xMMS.
To install the E-size processor in a 2xMMS for metal enclosures, you require the following spacer
blocks, included with kits P0971YC and P0971YD (shown in Figure 4-19):
124
♦ Left spacer (P0971XJ), with two panhead screws (X0124GN).

♦ Right spacer (P0971WY), with one panhead screw (X0124GN).
To install the E-size processor in a 2xMMS for plastic enclosures, you require a single spacer block
(P0971WR), with two panhead screws (X0124GN), included with kits P0971YC and P0971YD
(shown in Figure 4-19):

2. Place the E-size processor in the 2xMMS, closer to the right side of the structure, as
indicated in Figure 4-20 and Figure 4-21. Ensure that the processor is not upside
down, that its base does not hang more than 4 in (100 mm) over the front edge of the
2xMMS, and that its faceplate faces toward the front.
126
If a second E-size processor is to be installed in the 2xMMS (for metal

enclosures only), ensure that you are able to access the rear of these two processors in
the enclosure or 19-inch rack (for example, from a rear door). The processors cannot
be connected without rear access in the enclosure. Install the second E-size processor
to the left, touching the side of the first processor (see Figure 4-20).
The E-size processors are sufficiently bottom heavy, so that they can stay upright in
the 2xMMS without further support.
Proceed to install additional processors, or skip to “Installing the 50 Series Modules and Mount-
ing Hardware” on page 132.
After you have completed installing equipment in your respective 2xMMS, install the new enclo-
sure door as described in Model 51, Style D and E Processor Instructions for MIC, MIW,
IEMFA/IEMFR (ME24/32), and IE32 Installation (B0400PL).
F-Size (Model 51, Style D) Processors

To install F-size (Model 51, Style D) processors in a metal enclosure, you require:
♦ One single spacer block (P0971XH), with two panhead screws.
♦ One double spacer block (P0971WQ), with two panhead screws.
To install F-size processors in a plastic enclosure, you require:
♦ Two single spacer blocks (P0971XH), with two panhead screws.
♦ Two double spacer blocks (P0971WQ), with two panhead screws.
These spacers are included in kits P0971YC and P0971YD in their proper quantities. Figure 4-19

structure, as indicated in Figure 4-23 through Figure 4-27. Ensure that the
processor’s faceplate faces toward the front.
If multiple F-size processors are to be installed in the 2xMMS (for metal
enclosures only), ensure that you can access the rear of these processors in the enclo-
sure or rack (for example, from a rear door). The processors cannot be connected to
their associated cables without rear access in the enclosure or rack.
You have completed installing the F-size (Model 51, Style D) processors. Proceed to install addi-
tional processors, or skip to “Installing the 50 Series Modules and Mounting Hardware” on
page 132.
C-Size (Model 51, Style B, B1, or C) Processors

Proceed as follows to install each C-size (Model 51, Style B, B1, or C) processor into either ver-
sion of the 2xMMS.
1. Orient the C-size processor so that its feet are against the right side of the 2xMMS or
close to the C-size, or E-size processor to its right, whichever is applicable. Ensure the
CD-ROM/floppy drive is facing toward the front (see Figure 4-28). (This places the
cable connectors at the top.)
2. Install the retaining plate (P0971ED) directly above the C-size processor, as shown in
Figure 4-28.

You have completed the installation procedure for the C-size processors.
Plug the ac power cord of the processor into the outlet strip nearest the processor when
finished with all associated installation procedures for the 2xMMS.
Proceed to install mounting hardware and modules (if necessary) into the mounting structure.
Installing the 50 Series Modules and Mounting Hardware

You must now replace any spacer assemblies affected by this installation, and install all the
required modules in the mounting structure. Instructions for replacing these assemblies differ
slightly, depending on whether they are being replaced on the MMS or 2xMMS base rails, or on
the 2xMMS telescoping rails (see Figure 4-12 on page 116).
NOTE
For convenience, this section uses the term “rails” to refer to either the base rails or
telescoping rails, except where the term “2xMMS telescoping rails” is called out.
Proceed as follows:
1. Set up the divider and telescoping rails in the 2xMMS as follows. If you are setting up
an MMS, or an existing 2xMMS with regular rails, skip to Step 2.
a. Using the screws (X0173FQ) and lockwashers (X0143SB) supplied in kits
P0971YC and P0971YD, secure the divider (P0971XG) to the upper and lower
2xMMS rails as far over to the right as possible. If you have mounted processors in
the 2xMMS, leave a little under 1 in (25 mm) of space between the divider and
the processors.

b. Depending on the space remaining on the left section of the 2xMMS, determine
which of the following telescoping rails (included in kits P0971YC and
P0971YD) fit best in this space:
♦ 76 mm (3 in) telescoping rails, inner (P0971XA) and outer (P0971XD)
♦ 127 mm (5 in) telescoping rails, inner (P0971XB) and outer (P0971XE)
♦ 254 mm (10 in) telescoping rails, inner (P0971XC) and outer (P0971XF) -
(these rails are not applicable to the 2xMMS for plastic enclosures
(P0971EB))
c. For the two sets of telescoping rails required, slide the inner rail into the outer rail,
as shown in Figure 4-30.
d. For each combined rail set, hold each rail set in the left section of the 2xMMS and
adjust it to fit exactly the space between the divider and the left wall of the
2xMMS. Pull the combined rails apart to widen them, and push the rails together
to shorten them.
e. Insert a screw (X0173UH) into the center holes in the outer telescoping rail, as
shown in Figure 4-30, and tighten it to secure the telescoping rails in place.

skip this step.
a. Determine how many spacer assemblies (P0971XP) you must install in the MMS,
or the left section of the 2xMMS. Skip this substep if you are replacing spacer
assemblies that you removed in “Depopulating the MMS or 2xMMS (for Mod-
ules Only)” on page 121.
You require:
♦ one spacer for the first two A-size, B-size, and D-size modules you must install
on the lower MMS or 2xMMS rails,
♦ one spacer for the first two A-size, B-size, and D-size modules you must install
on the upper rails (2xMMS only), and
♦ one spacer for every additional A-size, B-size, and D-size module you must
install in the 2xMMS.
b. Referring to Figure 4-32, hook the rear of the spacer assembly onto the rear rails
on the mounting structure, and then lower it so that it rests on the front rails.

If you have any D-size modules in the mounting structure, proceed to the following section.
Plug the ac power cord of each module into the outlet strip nearest each module when
finished with all associated installation procedures.
Installing Front and Rear Stop Assemblies (D-Size Modules Only)

When installing a D-size module in an MMS or 2xMMS, it is also necessary to install a front stop
assembly (P0971KU) for each D-size module. You must also install a rear stop assembly
(P0971PZ) if the D-size module is in the left-most position within a 2xMMS. These
assemblies are shown in Figure 4-36 below.
Front Stop Assembly Installation

1. Place the front stop assembly on the rail directly above the D-size module. Refer to
Figure 4-36.
If the assembly is on the 2xMMS front telescoping rail, it must straddle both the inner
and outer telescoping rails to properly hold itself securely. If the front stop assembly
rests only on the extended portion of the telescoping rail (that is, on only one rail and
not both) snap a telescoping rail spacer block (P0971XR) onto this portion of the rail
to make up the difference for the assembly. This block is included with kits P0971YC
and P0971YD.
Front stop assemblies on any other MMS or 2xMMS rails do not require any
special procedures.

5. Repeat this procedure for every other D-size module you have installed in the mount-
ing structure.
Continue to the next section.
Rear Stop Assembly Installation

It is necessary to install a rear stop assembly for a D-size module installed in the left-most position
within a 2xMMS, because there is no spacer assembly or stop clip assembly to restrain the rear of
the module when it is in the left-most position in the mounting structure. Refer to Figure 4-36
for the location and positioning of the rear stop assembly (P0971PZ).
Installation of a rear stop assembly in a MMS is unnecessary.
139
1. Position the rear stop assembly on the rear rails of the 2xMMS, in line with the D-size
module.
If used on the 2xMMS telescoping rails, the rear stop assembly must straddle both the
inner and outer telescoping rails to properly hold itself securely. If the rear stop assem-
bly rests only on the extended portion of the telescoping rail (that is, on only one rail
and not both) snap a telescoping rail spacer block (P0971XR) onto this portion of the
rail to extend the width of the rail for the assembly. This block is included with kits
P0971YC and P0971YD.
NOTE
The rear bracket on the rear stop assembly contains two stops, one upper and one
lower, which move in unison.
2. Adjust the rear bracket on the rear stop assembly so that it comes in contact with both
top and bottom D-size modules, if necessary, and secure the bracket by
tightening screw C, shown in Figure 4-36.
3. Secure the stop assembly to the rail by tightening screw A, shown in Figure 4-37.
You have completed installation for the D-size module in the mounting structures.
Plug the ac power cord of the module into the outlet strip nearest the module when finished with
all associated installation procedures.
Completing Installation for E-Size Processor

If you are installing the E-size (Model 51, Style E) processor in a IEMFA/IEMFR (ME24/32)
metal enclosure, or a plastic Industrial Enclosure 32 (IE32), you must replace the front door of
the enclosure.
You require:
♦ Kit P0971VE if the front door of the IEMFA/IEMFR (ME24/32) is left-hinged, or
♦ Kit P0971VK if the front door on the IEMFA/IEMFR (ME24/32) is right-hinged, or
♦ Kit P0971VF for the IE32.
and IE32 Installation (B0400PL) for additional information on these kits. Once you have replaced
these doors, installation for the E-size processors is complete.
Plug the ac power cord of the processor into the outlet strip nearest the processor when
finished with all associated installation procedures.
X- and Z-Module, General Installation Information

Although the X- and Z-Modules (shown in Figure 4-4 and Figure 4-5, respectively) differ in
appearance, the installation procedures for both are the same (with the exception of the fault-tol-
erant module connector installation, as described in the following subsections).
Either module type (X or Z) is available in two configurations, non-fault-tolerant and fault-toler-
ant. The non-fault-tolerant module consists of one single-width or double-width module; the
fault-tolerant module consists of two single-width or double-width modules. Communication
140
between the two modules in the fault-tolerant configuration takes place via fault-tolerant module
connectors, of which there are two types:
♦ Rear-Mounted Fault-Tolerant Module Connector – This connector is used with all
fault-tolerant X-Modules, and some fault-tolerant Z-Modules. When required, the
connector is attached to the mounting structure (at the rear of the fault-tolerant mod-
ule) prior to installation of the module.
♦ Front-Mounted Fault-Tolerant Module Connector – Used only with the fault-tolerant
version of the Control Processor 30/30B, Control Processor 40/40B and Gateway 30
(see Note), this connector must be attached to the front of the module pair after the
modules are installed.
NOTE
The following notes apply to the fault-tolerant modules:
1. For some fault-tolerant processor modules, namely the Control Processor 30,
Control Processor 40 and Gateway 30, both the rear-mounted and front-mounted
fault-tolerant module connectors are used.
2. Mixing of fault-tolerant control processor types is not allowed (for example, use
of a Control Processor 30 with a Control Processor 30B).
Rear-Mounted Fault-Tolerant Module Connector Installation

The rear-mounted fault-tolerant module connector is used with the fault-tolerant versions of the
following processor modules:
♦ Gateway 30
The rear-mounted fault-tolerant module connector is not used with the fault-tolerant versions of
the Control Processor 30B and Control Processor 40B.
Inserted into the mounting structure bus on an “as needed” basis, the rear-mounted fault-
tolerant module connector is available in two styles: a short connector (part number P0400CV) is
used to interconnect two single-width fault-tolerant modules, and a long connector (part number
P0500XL) is used to interconnect two double-width fault-tolerant modules.

To install the rear-mounted fault-tolerant module connector, refer to Figure 4-38 and proceed as
follows:
1. Refer to the information developed during the site planning phase and determine
which mounting structure slots are to receive fault-tolerant modules.
2. Insert appropriately sized rear-mounted fault-tolerant module connectors into the
mounting structure in the slot locations that are to receive fault-tolerant modules.
Ensure that the clip pins on the fault-tolerant module connectors insert into the clip
pin receptacles on the mounting structure bus. See Figure 4-38.
Front-Mounted Fault-Tolerant Module Connector Installation

The front-mounted fault-tolerant module connector is used with the fault-tolerant version of the
processor modules listed in Table 4-2.
Table 4-2. Types of Front-Mounted Fault-Tolerant Module Connectors

Gateway 30 P0960AH
To install the front-mounted fault-tolerant module connector, refer to Figure 4-39 and proceed as
follows.
142
NOTE
This procedure assumes that (1) the fault-tolerant modules are installed in the
enclosure, as described in “X- and Z-Module Installation” on page 144, and
(2) the rear-mounted fault-tolerant module connector is installed (if required) as
described under “Rear-Mounted Fault-Tolerant Module Connector Installation” on
page 141.
1. For each of the modules in the fault-tolerant pair, lower the fault-tolerant module
connector cover by grasping the cover near the top and pulling toward you.
2. Insert the front-mounted fault-tolerant module connector (see part numbers listed
above) into the two exposed receptacles at the front of the modules.
3. Raise each of the fault-tolerant module connector covers, and press firmly in place.
! CAUTION
A tab is provided on the fault-tolerant module connector for safe removal of the
connector. To remove the connector, lower the fault-tolerant (FT) module connec-
tor covers, grasp the tab on the fault-tolerant module connector, and move it out-
ward (toward you). Do not remove the connector by grasping its sides, as this will
damage the connector pins.

Fieldbus Jumper Installation

The Control Processor 10 or the Control Processor 30/40 can be used in either of two configura-
tions: a local Fieldbus configuration, where connection to the Fieldbus is made through the
mounting structure bus; or a remote Fieldbus configuration, where connection to the Fieldbus is
made through the plug connectors at the top of the Control Processor.
If the local Fieldbus configuration is to be used with the Control Processor, insert a Fieldbus
jumper, part number P0800ES, at the position corresponding to the “A” connector on the Con-
trol Processor, as shown in Figure 4-40. (Two jumpers are required for the fault-tolerant Control
Processor, each inserted at position “A”.) The jumpers are either shipped in place, or are packaged
with other small parts in the enclosure.
Fieldbus jumpers are not used with the remote Fieldbus configuration.

X- and Z-Module Installation

To install an X- or Z-Module, refer to Figure 4-4 or Figure 4-5 on page 106 (as appropriate) and
proceed as follows:
1. Referring to the information developed during the site planning phase, determine
which enclosure slots are to receive X- or Z-Modules.
144
NOTE
X- or Z-Modules that are to be installed in the upper half of a mounting
structure must be oriented as shown in Figure 4-4 and Figure 4-5 (in the non-
inverted position). Modules that are to be mounted in the lower half of a mounting
structure must be oriented in the inverted position. Fieldbus Y-Modules must be
right side up when installed in the 1x8, 1x8 FBM, 2x8, or 2x8 FBM mounting
structures.
2. Insert the module in its assigned slot and push firmly in place until it engages the rear
section of the mounting structure.
If the module is a fault-tolerant type, it may require installation of a rear-mounted
fault-tolerant module connector (if not already installed). Refer to “Rear-Mounted
Fault-Tolerant Module Connector Installation” on page 141 for detailed information.
3. Observing the following CAUTION statement, and using the hex driver tool, tighten
the long captive mounting screw(s) at the front of the module. (Double-width proces-
sor modules have two additional captive mounting screws for each slot position.) This
fastens the module to the mounting structure bus.
! CAUTION
When installing modules or any other hardware that screws into inserts imbedded
in plastic, use the hex driver tool provided (X0179AZ), or the appropriate screw-
driver. If you must use another type of tool, make sure that it does not generate
more than 12 in • lbs of torque, or you might strip the threaded insert out of the
plastic.
NOTE
The short captive mounting screw(s) must be tightened before any peripheral con-
nections can be made to the processor module. The long captive mounting screw(s)
must be tightened before the short mounting screw(s).
4. To engage the peripheral connector plug, insert the hex driver tool into the peripheral
connector engagement actuator slot and turn clockwise one-half turn. (This is per-
formed after the peripheral connector jacks are in place.)
5. If the module is a fault-tolerant Control Processor 30/30B, Control Processor 40/40B,
or a Gateway 30, install the front-mounted fault-tolerant module connector at this
time, as described under “Front-Mounted Fault-Tolerant Module Connector Installa-
6. Install the module identifier (letterbug) as described in the following subsection.
Module Identifier (Letterbug) Installation

A module identifier, composed of six letterbugs, is used to provide physical, user-assigned labels
on X-, Z-, and Fieldbus Modules. Each letterbug is a small plastic device with a single character
embossed on the front surface. The rear surface of the letterbug contains two to eight pins that are
145
electrically connected. These pins are arranged in configurations corresponding to particular char-
acters or symbols. The required sets of letterbugs are shipped packaged inside the enclosures.
NOTE
For more information on the differences between the AP20 X- and Z- Modules,
including letterbug setup and SCSI bus termination, refer to the Application Proces-
sor 20 Z-Module Installation and Maintenance (B0193SG) document.
The module identifiers are electrically readable either right side up or inverted. This placement
allows the letterbugs to be visually upright in a processor module that is inverted. The six letter-
bugs that form one module identifier plug into a 48-pin connector on the processor module.
NOTE
The following notes apply to the letterbugs:
1. The SPECTRUM Slave Gateway (SSG) module IDs must be set using the
following configuration:
FOXNET Address I/A Series Identifier
03xxxx 000SSG
The SSG is a double X-Module. The FOXNET address goes on the left side, and
the I/A Series identifier goes on the right, as shown above.
2. Any letterbugs containing the letter “U” may only be inserted into the modules
in the upright position.
3. The letterbug associated with a 50 Series, 70 Series, or Server 70 processor is
mounted in the DNBI, DNBT, or DNBX through which it communicates with the
Nodebus. A labeling kit, supplied with the processor, provides for affixing the same
letterbug sequence to the front or side of the processor.
! CAUTION
The use of an all-numeric letterbug for a 50 Series, 70 Series, or Server 70 processor
(actually the associated DNBI/DNBT/DNBX) is not allowed. 50 Series, 70 Series,
or Server 70 processor letterbugs must contain an alpha character (A through Z).
Failure to follow this rule causes unpredictable network and application behavior.
Assembly of the letterbugs to form a module identifier, and insertion of the module identifier into
a module are shown in Figure 4-41 and Figure 4-42.
To assemble and install the module identifiers, proceed as follows:
1. Referring to the information developed during the site planning phase, gather the six
letterbugs that form the module identifier and assemble by inserting the dovetailed
end of one letterbug into the corresponding end of the next letterbug until all six let-
terbugs have been assembled in the proper order. (See Figure 4-41.)
146

being careful that the pins are properly aligned with the holes in the receptacle. (See
Figure 4-42.)
3. Repeat Steps 1 and 2 for all installed X-Modules, Z-Modules, and Fieldbus Modules.
NOTE
To remove the module identifier (letterbug set) use the letterbug extractor tool, Fox-
boro part number P0902HK, shown in Figure 4-42.
Y-Adapter Installation
Refer to Figure 4-43. The Y-adapter (part number P0400DL) is a mounting device which, when
installed in a 1x8 or 2x8 mounting structure, allows mounting of Fieldbus Modules (Y Modules)
and Fieldbus Isolator modules. It occupies two mounting structure slots, and is intended for use
in all enclosures except Field Enclosure 4 and the FBM mounting structures. (The
aforementioned enclosures accept Fieldbus Modules and Fieldbus Isolator modules directly.) The
147
Y-adapter can hold two Fieldbus Modules, or one Fieldbus Module and one or two
Fieldbus Isolator modules.
NOTE
While the design of the Y-adapter allows for Fieldbus Modules to be installed in
either a right side up or inverted orientation, the design does not allow for both ori-
entations simultaneously within a given Y-adapter.
The Y-adapter contains a moveable 6-pin connector, which is attached to a mechanical indicator
arm, visible through a slot at the front of the Y-adapter. As described in the following procedure,
positioning of the 6-pin connector depends on whether the upper or lower Fieldbus configuration
is used.
NOTE
If a Y-adapter is to house a main and expansion FBM pair, then the main FBM
must be associated with an odd slot, and the expansion FBM with an even slot in
the mounting structure. Additionally, the main and the expansion FBMs must be
paired in the same Y-adapter. This consideration can affect the slot positions where
the adapter is installed. (Refer to “Main and Expansion FBM Installation Consider-
ations” on page 150 for further related installation information.)
NOTE
The 6-pin connector must be positioned before the Y-adapter is inserted into the
enclosure.
To install the Y-adapter, proceed as follows. (Refer to Figure 4-43.)

1. Refer to the information developed during the site planning phase to determine (1) if
your installation requires Y-adapters and (2) the location of the Y-adapters. Also deter-
mine if the upper or lower Fieldbus configuration is used.
2. If the upper Fieldbus configuration is used, move the 6-pin connector at the rear of
the Y-adapter to position the front indicator according to the following rules. (Refer to
the information developed during the site planning phase to determine the position of
the associated control processor.)
a. If the associated Control Processor is mounted in the bottom row of a 2x4 or 2x8
mounting structure, select the Down Arrow.
b. If the associated Control Processor is mounted in the upper row of a 2x4 or 2x8
mounting structure, select the Up Arrow.
c. If the associated Control Processor is mounted in a 1x8 mounting structure, select
the Up Arrow.
3. If the lower Fieldbus configuration is used, set the 6-pin connectors on all Y-adapters
associated with the Fieldbus in question to the same position: all to Up arrow position
or all to Down Arrow position. (If only one Y-adapter is used with a lower Fieldbus,
the setting is arbitrary.)
148
NOTE
If two lower Fieldbuses (Fieldbuses associated with two separate control
processors) connect to a particular enclosure, set the 6-pin connectors as follows: set
all Y-adapters in that enclosure that are associated with one Fieldbus to the Up
Arrow position, and all Y-adapters associated with the other Fieldbus to the Down
Arrow position.
4. Slide the Y-adapter into the appropriate mounting structure slots.

5. With the Y-adapter firmly seated, and using the hex driver tool, tighten the three cap-
tive screws on the front of the Y-adapter.
6. Repeat Steps 1 through 5 for each Y-adapter to be installed.

Fieldbus Module Installation

Two captive mounting screws, located at the sides of the Fieldbus Module (FBM), secure the
FBM to the mounting structure in Field Enclosure 4, or 1x8, 1x12, or 2x8 FBM mounting struc-
tures, or to the Y-adapter (in other enclosures).
To install the FBMs, refer to Figure 4-6 and proceed as follows:
1. Refer to the information developed during the site planning phase to determine the
installation locations of the FBMs.
2. Orient the FBM such that the FBM (type) number, located at the front of the FBM,
is right side up (non-inverted).
3. Observing the following CAUTION statement, insert the FBM into its assigned slot
and press firmly in place.
149
! CAUTION
To avoid bending the connecting pins on the FBM, ensure that the pins are aligned
with the receptacle when you insert the module into its slot.
4. Insert the hex driver tool through the mounting screw holes at the front of the FBM
and tighten the two captive mounting screws.
! CAUTION
When installing modules or any other hardware that screws into inserts
imbedded in plastic, use the hex driver tool provided (X0179AZ), or the
appropriate screwdriver. If you must use another type of tool, make sure that it does
not generate more than 12 in • lbs of torque, or you can begin stripping the
threaded insert out of the plastic.
5. Repeat Steps 1 through 4 for all Fieldbus Modules.
NOTE
Redundant versions of certain Fieldbus types (namely, FBM04, 05, 06, 39, 44, and
46) are installed in a manner similar to the non-redundant FBMs. However, certain
issues associated with redundancy must be considered before the modules can
become operational, such as fail-safe parameter configuration, operational status
checks, and so forth. Refer to “Redundant FBM Operational Considerations” on
page 333 for details.
Main and Expansion FBM Installation Considerations

Expandable main FBMs can be configured with their associated expansion FBMs as pairs.
Table 4-3 lists the installation considerations for these FBM pairs.
Table 4-3. Main and Expansion FBM Installation Considerations
Mounting Structure Installation Considerations

1x8, 2x4, 2x8 Y-adapters are required for installation of FBMs
in these mounting structures. These mounting
structures accommodate paired main and
expansion FBMs in adjacent odd (main FBM)
and even (expansion FBM) numbered slots.
The main and expansion FBMs must be paired
in the same Y-adapter.
1x8 FBM (Only) Mounting Structure Accommodates paired main and expansion
FBMs in adjacent odd (main FBM) and even
(expansion FBM) numbered slots.
1x12 FBM Only Mounting Structure Accommodates paired main and expansion
FBMs in any adjacent odd (main FBM) and
even (expansion FBM) numbered slots.
150
NOTE
Expansion FBMs cannot be paired with Fieldbus Isolator Modules.
Fieldbus Isolator Module Installation

Fieldbus Isolator modules can be mounted in a Field Enclosure 4, in 1x8 FBM, 1x12 FBM or
2x8 FBM mounting structures, or the upper- or lower-half of a Y-adapter7 for mounting in other
structures such as a 1x8 or 2x8 mounting structure. In each case the Fieldbus Isolator modules are
oriented as shown in Figure 4-7.
Two captive hex screws, located half-way down the module, are accessed, one through a hole in
the upper-right corner and one at the lower-left corner of the front of the module to secure the
Fieldbus Isolator module to the adapter and mounting-structure bus in FBM mounting structures
and in Field Enclosure 4. In other enclosures, a Y-adapter (see “Y-Adapter Installation” on
page 147) must be installed in the mounting structure for receiving the Fieldbus Isolator module.
NOTE
The following notes apply to the Fieldbus Isolator modules installation:
1. When mounted in the upper half of a 2x4 or 2x8 mounting structure, or in a
Field Enclosure 4, the upper isolator corresponds to Fieldbus A, and the lower to
Fieldbus B. When mounted in the lower half of a 2x4 or 2x8 mounting
structure, the upper isolator corresponds to Fieldbus B and the lower to Fieldbus A.
2. When mounted in a Field Enclosure 4 the isolator(s) must be located in the
right-most slot.
3. When mounted in a 1x8 FBM mounting structure, Fieldbus isolators FBI A and
FBI B can be installed in slot 1 and/or slot 5 to extend the Fieldbus (see
Figure 4-44). Refer also to the description “Fieldbus Configuration and Local
Extension (1x8, 1x12, 2x8 FBM)” on page 205 for configuration and FBI relation-
ships.
4. When mounted in a 1x12 FBM mounting structure, Fieldbus Isolators can only
be installed in the first slot (the left-most slot). This slot accepts up to two Fieldbus
Isolator modules (Bus A and Bus B) to allow for remote communications (see
Figure 4-45). Refer also to the description “Fieldbus Configuration and Local
Extension (1x8, 1x12, 2x8 FBM)” on page 205 for configuration and FBI relation-
ships.
5. When mounted in a 2x8 FBM mounting structure, Fieldbus Isolator modules
can be installed in slots 1, 5, 9, and 13 (see Figure 4-46). Refer also to the descrip-
tion “Fieldbus Configuration and Local Extension (1x8, 1x12, 2x8 FBM)” on
page 205 for configuration and FBI relationships.
6. In all mounting structures, the isolator corresponding to Fieldbus B is optional; it
is used only in the redundant Fieldbus configuration. Row and column power distri-
bution prevents loss of power to both isolator slots if one power module fails when
backup power modules are not installed.
7.
Y-adapters are used in Industrial Enclosures 16 and 32, IEMFA/IEMFR, FE8, and Field Enclosure 8
for 1x8 and 2x8 mounting structures. The Y-adapter is not needed with 1x8 FBM, 2x8 FBM, and
1x12 FBM mounting structures.

2. Orient the Fieldbus Isolator module as shown in Figure 4-7.
3. Observing the following CAUTION statement, insert the Fieldbus Isolator into its
assigned slot in the enclosure mounting structure and press firmly in place.
! CAUTION
To avoid bending the connecting pins on the Fieldbus Isolator, ensure that the pins
are aligned with the receptacle when inserting the module into its slot.
4. Using the hex driver tool, tighten the two screws located halfway along the length of
the module. Access the screws through the holes on the front of the module. Repeat
Steps 1 through 4 for all Fieldbus Isolators.

5. Data Storage Device Installation
and Cabling
This chapter describes how to access and set the jumpers and switches for the various types of
data storage devices (modules), and how to install and connect cables to these devices.
The data storage devices fall into two basic categories:
♦ 50 Series data storage devices – operate in conjunction with the Application
Processor 50/51 (AP50/51), Workstation Processor 50/51 (WP50/51), and
Application Workstation 50/51 (AW50/51).
♦ AP20-based data storage devices – operate in conjunction with the Application Pro-
cessor 20.
Table 5-1 identifies the available I/A Series data storage devices. Note that part numbers for some
of these devices reflect preinstalled 50 Series software. The installation for these devices is similar
to those devices without software.

The 4.2, 9.1, and 18.2 GB hard drives are supported by the Model 51, Style D and E processors with
versions 4.2.x or later of I/A Series software; they are supported by all 50 Series processors with
versions 6.0 or later of I/A Series software.
! CAUTION
The following precautions must be observed when working with hard disk drives:
1. Avoid harsh shocks to the drive at any time.

2. Handle the drive by the frame only, to avoid static discharge damage to the drive elec-
trical components.
3. Do not block or impede the cooling air flow through the drive.
4. For any installation, the drives should not be tilted front-to-back, in any position,
horizontal or vertical, by more than plus-or-minus 5°.

5. Connect power and signal cables to the drive properly, before applying power to the
drive.
6. To ensure the actuator is completely locked, do not move the drive for 15 seconds
after you remove dc power.
50 Series Data Storage Devices, General Information

50 Series data storage devices are those that are used in conjunction with the Application
Processor 50/51, the Workstation Processor 50/51, and the Application Workstation 50/51. (See
Table 5-1.)
The 50 Series data storage devices can be configured in the following ways:
♦ With housing, for mounting in a 50 Series modular mounting structure1 (or user-sup-
plied 19-inch rack)
♦ Without housing, for mounting in the spacer section of a Modular Industrial
Workstation.
NOTE
Refer to the following notes before configuring data storage devices:
1. When adding (or originally connecting) devices to the SCSI bus for all 50 Series
processors, consideration must be given to the apparent cabling length of all devices
(including processors) on the bus. The Model 51, Style D2 and E processors have an
external high speed ultra-wide SCSI-3 bus with a total SCSI length of three meters,
while the other processors have an external SCSI-2 bus with a total SCSI length of
six meters. This impacts both the maximum number of B-size and D-size modules
used, and the cabling distances between the processors and the B-size and D-size
module(s). For details, refer to Appendix B “SCSI Bus Configuration Guide”.
2. When a new data storage device (tape drive, disk drive, or CD-ROM drive) is
added to an operational AP51, WP51, or AW51 station, the station must be reboo-
ted with the boot -r command. Refer to the System Operations Guide (B0193CR) for
information on rebooting.
3. The Foxboro Company recommends that only Maxell or Sony brand 3 1/2 inch
diskettes be used in the 50 Series data storage devices.
AP50/51-, and AW50/51-Based Data Storage Device Address

Settings
SCSI device addresses for the AP50/51-, and AW50/51-based data storage devices with
housings (mountable on tabletop, in the I/A Series enclosures, or in a 19-inch rack) are set by
means of a selector switch at the rear of each device (Figure 5-1). To operate this switch press the
tab on either side of the selector window to increase or decrease the value. Table 5-2 provides the
recommended settings for all AP50/51 or AW50/51-based data storage devices, except those for
the Model 51, Style D and E processors. Table 5-3 provides the recommended settings for the

NOTE
The Model 51, Style D processor does not support disk mirroring.
The versions of the data storage devices that are packaged without housings (those that are used in
the Modular Industrial Workstation spacer section) have jumpers that are preset at the factory for

Installation and Cabling
Installation of the AP50/51- and AW50/51-based data storage devices into the I/A Series enclo-
sures (or user-supplied 19-inch rack) is described under “50 Series, 70 Series, and Server 70 Mod-
ule/Processor Installation” on page 108.
Cabling of the AP50/51- and AW50/51-based data storage devices (those connecting to the
AP50/51 and AW50/51 processors) is simply a matter of connecting one device to another in
daisy-chain fashion.
159
NOTE
1. When D-size modules (peripherals) are used in the SCSI cabling configuration,
consideration must be given to cable connector pin configurations (50 vs. 68 pins).
As shown in Figure 5-2, several types of cables are provided to match the different
(50/68-pin) connectors on the data storage devices.
2. The maximum SCSI cable lengths differ on the Model 51, Style D and E
processors from the other 50 Series processors. Refer to Appendix B “SCSI Bus
Configuration Guide” for additional information.

AP20-Based Data Storage Devices, General

Information
AP20-based data storage devices are those that are used with Application Processor 20. They
include the following (see Table 5-1):
♦ Single diskette drive
♦ Dual diskette drive
♦ 120 MB hard disk drive
♦ 150 MB streaming tape drive.
NOTE
For an overview of typical data storage device configurations and general rules per-
taining to data storage device installation, refer to “General Rules for AP20-Based
Data Storage Device Installation” on page 188.
The AP20 data storage devices are packaged in the following ways:
♦ A modular type housing (P-adapter) for mounting in any standard I/A Series mount-
ing structure
♦ With supporting brackets, for mounting in the spacer section of a Modular
Industrial Workstation
♦ Z-Module for 120 MB disk drive.
The AP20 supports only SCSI data storage devices. In general, SCSI devices are those that con-
tain, or operate with their own SCSI-based controllers. Non-SCSI devices are those which use a
separate controller.
The SCSI interface serves up to seven SCSI data storage devices. Each data storage device on the
SCSI bus must have a unique address in the range 1 to 7.
169
Recommended SCSI address assignments for the AP20-based data storage devices are provided in
Table 5-7.

Streaming tape drive 2
Hard disk drive used with AP20 (AP20 boot disk) 3
Reserved for additional (user application) hard disk drive 4
Reserved for hard disk drive used in support of historian extended sampling 5
Note that the addresses set on the floppy disk drives are not SCSI addresses. Rather, they are local
addresses used by the floppy disk controller built into the floppy disk controller connected to an
AP20. (The floppy disk controller connected to an AP20 has its own SCSI address, as indicated
above.)
Floppy disk drive jumpers are preset to default values such that dual-floppy modules will work
correctly as the first two drives on an AP20 system.
Refer to the list of general rules on installation and cabling of the AP20-based data storage devices
beginning on page 188. Installation personnel should be familiar with these rules before installing
the devices, and should, upon completion of the installation, verify that the results are in compli-
ance with the rules.
Accessing Jumpers in AP20-Based Data Storage Devices

Three procedures are presented for accessing jumpers in AP20-based data storage devices: one for
accessing jumpers in modular type data storage devices (except the streaming tape drive), one for
accessing jumpers in the modular type streaming tape drive, and one for accessing jumpers in the
nonmodular type streaming tape drive. (Procedures for accessing jumpers in the nonmodular
floppy disk or hard disk drives are not required, because these devices are not enclosed, and there-
fore, offer ready access to the jumpers.)
Accessing Jumpers in Modular (P-Adapter) Type Data Storage Devices

Setting the address and other jumpers in modular type data storage devices requires that the mod-
ule be accessed internally.
NOTE
This procedure applies to all modular type data storage devices except the streaming
tape drive. Instructions for accessing the address switches in the modular type
streaming tape drive are presented in the description “Accessing Switches and Ter-
mination Resistor Packs in Modular 150 MB Streaming Tape Drive” on page 171.
To access the jumpers in a modular type data storage device refer to Figure 5-17 and proceed as
follows:
170
1. Holding the module in one hand, grasp lower section of the bezel between your
thumb and fingers of your other hand, and press inward lightly to separate bezel from
module.
2. Remove the bezel from the module.
3. Using the hex driver tool, turn both actuator screws about one-half turn clockwise to
raise the peripheral connector plugs.
4. With the module resting on table or other flat surface, disconnect the power,
signal, and ground cables and carefully pull out on the data storage device until the
jumpers are accessible.
To put the module together, reverse the procedure described in Steps 1 through 4.

Accessing Switches and Termination Resistor Packs in Modular

150 MB Streaming Tape Drive
To access the configuration switches and termination resistor packs in the modular 150 MB
streaming tape drive, refer to Figure 5-17 and proceed as follows:
1. Perform the procedure “Accessing Jumpers in Modular (P-Adapter) Type Data Storage
Devices” on page 170.
2. Referring to Figure 5-18 and Figure 5-19, locate the configuration switch jumpers
and make sure that the jumpers are installed as shown. (SCSI address 2 is configured,
and is the default setting.)
3. If this is the last device in the SCSI bus install three terminating resistor packs
(220 ohms to +5 V dc, and 330 ohms to ground) as shown in Figure 5-19. Do not
install these terminator packs if this device is not at one end of the SCSI bus.
4. To reassemble module, reverse Steps 1 through 6.

NOTE
This procedure is not required for the streaming tape drive used in the Pedestal
Enclosure 8. In this configuration, the controller is packaged separately from the
drive, and its switches are readily accessible.
To access the switches in the nonmodular type streaming tape drive (as used in the Modular
Industrial Workstation) the drive can be removed from the MIW and the switches set using the
previous procedure as follows:
1. Remove the panel cover.
2. Carefully pull out on the device until the cables at the rear of the device are accessible.
Disconnect the power, signal, and ground cables, and remove the drive.
172
3. Referring to Figure 5-18 and Figure 5-19, locate the configuration switch jumpers
and make sure that the jumpers are installed as shown. (Figure 5-19 shows SCSI
Address 2 configured.)
4. If this is the last device in the SCSI bus, install three terminating resistor packs
(220 ohms to +5 V dc, and 330 ohms to ground) as shown in Figure 5-19. Do not
install these terminator packs if this device is not at one end of the SCSI bus.
5. Reconnect power, signal, and ground cables and reinstall the drive in the MIW or
spacer section.
Refer to Modular Industrial Workstation Installation (B0193CE) for more information on the
MIW.
AP20-Based Data Storage Device Jumper Settings

The addresses of the AP20-based data storage devices are determined by jumper or DIP switch
settings on a PWB attached to or mounted with the data storage device. The address jumpers and
switches (as well as other jumpers or switches) are set initially at the factory for a specific default
value. Final addresses are set, if necessary, at the time of installation. Terminating resistor packs
must be removed from all but the last data storage device in the SCSI or non-SCSI chain. The fol-
lowing exceptions should be noted:
♦ The TEAC Model FD-55GFR-141 and Model FD-55GFR-701-U floppy disk drives,
which contain nonremovable terminating resistor packs, are an exception.
♦ If an AP20 does not occupy the end position on the bus, terminating resistor packs
must exist in devices at both ends of the bus.
For convenience, removal of the termination packs should coincide with the address change,
where applicable.
Floppy Disk Address Selection, General Information

NOTE
There are the following floppy disk drive models: TEAC, Inc. FD-235-HF, FD-
55GFR-141, and FD-55GFR-170-U. A label at the rear of the drive specifies the
model number.
Jumper settings are required in the floppy disk drives to select the drive address, and also to select
the high/low-density operating mode. The following subsections provide general information
regarding address selection and high/low-density selection.
In the AP20 (SCSI-based) configuration, the controller is either packaged internally in the dual
floppy module (P0911CW/P0911ZZ) or, in the case of workstation mounting, is mounted sepa-
rately from the drive(s). The controller, which supports up to two floppy disk drives, includes

Figure 5-20. Floppy Disks Used with AP20, Typical Addressing Scheme
Floppy Disk High/Low Density Selection, General Information

The floppy disk drives used with the AP20 are high density drives. When high density
diskettes are used with these drives, the diskettes can be both read and written. However, when
low density diskettes are used, the diskettes can be read but are unreliable for writing. This means
that, for the AP20, the high/low density jumpers on the PWB for the associated floppy diskette
drive must be changed from high density to low density when low density diskettes are used.
! CAUTION
Foxboro application software requires the floppy drive at address DS0/D0 to be
high-density. Do not change the drive at this address to low density.
The following subsections provide procedures for setting the appropriate addresses and high/low
density requirements in the floppy disk drives.

address.
NOTE
The floppy drive addresses indicated in the figures are local addresses used by the

Installing AP20-Based Modular Data Storage Devices

NOTE
The following notes apply to the AP20-based data storage devices:
1. The Foxboro Company recommends that you be familiar with “General Rules for
AP20-Based Data Storage Device Installation” on page 188 before you perform
these procedures.
2. Refer to the information developed during the site planning phase for
information on mounting structure slot allocations for the various data storage
devices.
Modular type data storage devices occupy one, two, or four mounting structure slots. Refer to “X-
and Z-Module Installation” on page 144 for information on how to install a 1-slot module. The
120 MB hard disk drive module is described separately following this procedure. Perform the fol-
lowing steps to install a either a 2- or 4-slot wide data storage device:
1. Insert the data storage device module in its assigned slot(s) in the mounting structure
and push the module firmly in place until it engages the rear section of the mounting
structure.
2. Using the hex driver tool, tighten two long captive screws at the bottom and front of
the module. This fastens the module to the mounting structure bus.
3. Tighten the two short captive screws at the top and front of the module. This fastens
the module to the lip of the mounting structure.
NOTE
The short screws must be fastened before any cable connections can be made, and
they cannot be fully engaged until the long screws have been fastened.
4. If the module occupies two slots, install a power connector, Foxboro part number
P0800FZ, in position E. If the drive occupies four slots, insert power connector
P0800FZ in positions E and F (Figure 5-26 and Figure 5-27, for example). This con-
nector completes the power connection(s) to the drive. It is either shipped in place, or
is packed with other small parts in the enclosure.
5. Repeat Steps 1 through 4 for each data storage device being installed in this
configuration.

120 MB Hard Disk Drive

The 120 MB hard disk drive, shown in Figure 5-28, is a single-width Z-Module SCSI device for
use in AP20 configurations. The disk drive can be used either for system or applications purposes.
The following paragraphs describe the module installation, indicators, how to set the SCSI device
address, and how to terminate the device (if appropriate).
This module contains an air filter that requires occasional cleaning. For further information, refer
to the section on “Preventive Maintenance” in the System Maintenance manual (B0193AD).
NOTE
To minimize noise on the interface between the 120 MB hard drive and the Appli-
cation Processor 20, install the drive as close as possible to the AP20. It is
recommended that the hard drive be installed as shown in this procedure. Refer to
Figure 5-33 or Figure 5-36.

bus.
This module can be installed in any slot in the enclosure. If it is the last device on the SCSI bus, it
must be terminated internally, as described later in this section.

There are two LED indicators (Figure 5-28). These LEDs are described in Table 5-8.
Table 5-8. 120 MB Disk Drive Indicators

180
Establishing and Setting the Disk Drive SCSI Device Address

The 120 MB disk drive module is a SCSI device requiring that you assign it an address (from 3 to
7) when you install the module. Address 3 is reserved for the system disk. If this disk drive is not
to be used as the system disk, but rather for the historian or other application use, select an
unused address, either 4 or 5.
The module identifier (letterbug set) for this disk drive requires a number from 3 to 7 depending
on the intended use for the disk as just described, and also either the letter T (for terminated), or
U (for unterminated). For example, the letterbug set 3U indicates that SCSI address 3 is the sys-
tem disk and is unterminated; a module identifier of 5T indicates that this disk drive is SCSI
address 5 and that this device is at the end of the bus and terminates the SCSI bus internally.
The SCSI device address for this hard disk depends on the letterbug set inserted as a module iden-
tifier. For information on assembling/inserting the letterbugs correctly, refer to “Module Identifier
(Letterbug) Installation” on page 145. This 2-character number and letter combination must be
inserted in the right-most 2 letterbug positions, with the T or U being in the right-most position
(Figure 5-28 for an example). Note that the module can be installed inverted with the letterbugs
installed right side up in the right-most positions, as viewed facing the module.
If you do not install any letterbugs, this device defaults to letterbug 7U, SCSI id7,
unterminated, and the green LED flashes.
Terminating the 120 MB Disk Drive

If you install a 120 MB hard disk drive as the last SCSI device in the chain, you can terminate the
drive in one of three ways:
♦ Use the letterbug T in the module identifier to activate the internal terminator.
♦ Connect an external SCSI standard terminator with cable assembly with cables P1
and P2 connected to module ports C and D, or A and B (depending on which end is
to be terminated), respectively.
♦ Connect a P0900DB (Revision B) terminator block to module ports C and D or A
and B (depending on which end is to be terminated).
Refer to “Terminating the AP20-Based SCSI Bus” on page 187.

Figure 5-29. Peripheral Cable Connections, Modular 120 MB Hard Disk Drive
Cabling for AP20-Based Modular Type Data Storage Devices

Each mounting structure slot has four positions for accommodating up to four peripheral (cable)
connectors. For convenience, these positions are identified in the relevant figures by the letters A
through D for one mounting structure slot, and A through H for two or four slots. (Slots 2 and 3
of 4-slot modules have no connections). The following figures illustrate the cable connections to
the various types of data storage devices and associated application processors:

A typical data storage device installation may consist of up to a maximum of seven devices served
by a single Application Processor. In addition, the installation may be configured in various ways.
For example, in some configurations Application Processor 20 may occupy an end position while
in others it may occupy an inside position. Also, various combinations of drives may be used. The
following figures show two examples of configurations using the Application Processor 20 (see
Figure 5-32, Figure 5-34, and Figure 5-34 on page 186).
To install cables between data storage devices and the associated Application Processor,
connectors and terminators, refer to these figures, the previous cabling connections figures, and
perform the following steps.
NOTE
This procedure assumes that cableways on left or right side structural panel, as
appropriate, are accessible for routing of cables between adjacent mounting struc-
tures. Cables connecting different modules in the same mounting structure can be
coiled to take up excessive slack and need not be routed via cableways. The proce-
dure also assumes that the associated application processor has been installed.

Figure 5-34. AP20 Installed Inside Chain Ends, Example
1. Referring to the information developed during the site planning phase, prepare a
rough sketch of the configuration being installed. This sketch (optional) facilitates the
installation of cables.
2. Install cables between the Application Processor and associated data storage devices,
using the sketch prepared in Step 1 to determine connecting points (positions in
mounting structure slots). Route cables along cableways as necessary and dress for
neatness and security.
3. Refer to the sketch and perform applicable procedure(s) (a through b) as follows:
a. If the AP20 occupies an end position in the configuration, insert a terminator,
Foxboro part number P0900DB, in positions C and D of the slot it occupies. (See
Figure 5-32.) The terminator must not be used on the AP if the AP20 is not at the
end of the SCSI bus.
b. If multiple data storage devices are being installed, verify that the terminator resis-
tor packs have been removed from all except the last device on the SCSI bus. To
access and remove the terminator resistor packs, refer to the applicable procedure
186
for setting jumpers for a given device described earlier in this section, and remove
the terminator resistor pack(s) as necessary. The locations of these terminators are
shown in the associated figures.
c. In the case of the dual floppy module, verify that the terminator resistor packs
have been removed on the last floppy (first or second) on the floppy bus. Excep-
tions are the TEAC Model FD-55GFR-141 and Model FD-55GFR-701-U
floppy disk drives, which contain nonremovable terminating resistor packs.
4. Using hex driver tool, turn one of two peripheral connector actuator screws on front
of data storage device module about 1/2 turn clockwise. This will cause peripheral
connector plug recessed in the module to mate with peripheral connector jack in the
mounting structure slot. Repeat for other actuator screw.
Terminating the AP20-Based SCSI Bus

To transfer data correctly, the SCSI bus must be terminated at both ends. The intermediate
devices on the SCSI bus must not be terminated. If the bus is not terminated properly, signal
reflections can result in data transfer errors.
The X-Module floppy, and streaming tape drive storage devices are all terminated internally using
terminator resistor packages, but only if a device is the last device on the bus.
When the AP20 requires termination (when it is located at one end of the bus), a P0900DB ter-
minator is connected to the positions to be terminated (typically positions C and D).
P0900DB Terminator Module

When the AP is at one end of the SCSI bus, and one of the peripheral devices is at the other end
of the bus. For AP20s, a type P0900DB termination module (Revision A) can be inserted in the
AP Module C and D (right side) positions. The Revision A terminator module is a SCSI-pinout
connector block.
NOTE
The P0900DB Revision A termination module fits the AP20 only. Use the Revision B
P0900DB termination module on any other SCSI bus device.
Figure 5-35 shows the Revision B P0900DB terminator module. This module consists of a SCSI-
II terminator module and P1/P2 adapter cables. The Revision B terminator module can be
inserted on an AP20 either in positions A and B or C and D, and on the other end of the SCSI
bus on P-adapter storage devices.
When the Revision B adapter cable is used with a P-adapter device such as a floppy disk drive,
streaming tape drive, 80 MB hard disk drive, or 120 MB hard disk drive, the connectors P1 and
P2 must be reversed (side-to-side) before mounting them in the positions (see bottom half of
Figure 5-35).
! CAUTION
Improper termination of the SCSI bus may cause improper functioning of the
Application Processor.

General Rules for AP20-Based Data Storage Device Installation

Figure 5-36 shows a typical configuration for AP20 applications. This figure and the general rules
presented below serve as a quick reference for personnel installing the data storage devices.
The general rules are as follows:
1. All 2-slot drives must have a power connector, Foxboro part number P0800FZ,
installed in position E of the appropriate mounting structure slot. All 4-slot drives
must have this power connector installed in positions E and F.
2. The SCSI bus consists of two cables, a data cable and a control signal cable. To assist
in the proper installation of these cables between Application Processors and data stor-
age devices in a mounting structure, observe the following rules:
♦ For data storage devices, data appears at positions A and G, and the control signals
at positions B and H.
♦ For Application Processors, the data appears at positions B and D, and the control
signals at positions A and C.
3. Table 5-9 lists the SCSI and non-SCSI cabling used with AP20 data storage devices.
Table 5-9. AP20 SCSI and Non-SCSI Cabling
P0911HE 15.2 cm (0.5 ft)

P0500JX 0.6 m (2 ft)
P0500UX 1.2 m (4 ft)
P0500UY 2.4 m (8 ft)
The maximum allowable cabling length between all interconnected SCSI devices is
3.6 m (12 ft). This length includes device interconnecting cables only, and does not
include the lengths of flex cables used within the devices.
4. Each SCSI device must have a unique address; therefore, if multiple hard disk drives
are to be used, the default jumpers for the non-boot drive must be changed to an
unused address.

5. The terminator resistor pack(s) must be removed on all but the last floppy disk drive
on the non SCSI bus. There are, however, two exceptions to this rule:
♦ TEAC Models FD-55GFR-141 and FD55GFR-170-U Floppy Disk Drives con-
tain permanently installed terminators, which must never be removed, regardless
of system configuration.
♦ If you install the TEAC Model FD-55GFR-141 or Model FD-55GFR-170-U
drive along with an older model (55-GVF-17-U or 55GFR-541-U), in the same
P-adapter, both drives must be terminated, regardless of their positions in the
chain.
6. On a SCSI bus, the terminator resistor packs must be removed from all except the last
device on the bus. If an AP20 is configured in a position other than the end position
(four SCSI cables connecting to the AP20), both ends of the SCSI bus must be termi-
nated.
7. AP20 may be used at either end of the configuration chain or anywhere in between. If
it is located at either end, a terminator module, Foxboro part number P0900DB
(Revision B) must be installed in positions C and D of appropriate mounting struc-
ture slots. The terminator module is not used when the AP20 is not in an end posi-
tion.
8. The configuration shown for the AP20 is the non-fault-tolerant configuration. In the
fault-tolerant AP20 configuration (two separate SCSI buses), if mirrored disk drives
are used, they must have the same SCSI address on their respective buses. Also, only
one of the fault-tolerant pair of buses is allowed to have removable media (for exam-
ple, floppy disk or tape drive).
9. All associated data storage devices must be connected (modules inserted into enclosure
and peripheral connector plugs raised) before booting up the Application Processor.
189
! CAUTION
Do not add or remove devices to/from the SCSI bus while the Application
Processor is on-line. This could generate a spurious interrupt and potentially halt
the Application Processor.
190
6. Fieldbus and Nodebus Cabling
This chapter explains how to install the cabling connections between I/A Series processors and
modules for an I/A Series Fieldbus or Nodebus.
NOTE
For installation information relating to the Module Fieldbus as used in the DIN rail
subsystem, refer to DIN Rail FBM Subsystem User’s Guide (B0400FA), FOUNDATION
fieldbus H1 Interface Module (FBM220/221) User Guide (B0400FD), I/A Series®
PROFIBUS-DPTM Communication Interface Module (FBM223) User’s Guide
(B0400FE) and I/A Series® HARTTM Communication Interface Module
Fieldbus and Nodebus cabling may involve extending the Fieldbus or Nodebus out of an
I/A Series mounting structure in a local (short distance) or remote (long distance) configuration.
Fieldbus Extension
The Fieldbus can be extended in the following ways:
♦ Local Fieldbus Extension – This extension involves connecting extension cables
between mounting structure buses within an enclosure to provide a Fieldbus length of
10 m (30 ft) maximum. Figure 6-1 illustrates a typical local Fieldbus extension
configuration.
♦ Remote Fieldbus Extension – This extension, used between enclosures, involves the
use of termination cable assemblies (TCAs) and Fieldbus Isolators to provide cable
connections between primary and extended Fieldbus segments, for a maximum Field-
bus length of 1800 m (6000 ft). Three different remote Fieldbus cabling
configurations are possible, depending on whether the Control Processor is fault-tol-
erant (FT) or non-fault-tolerant (NFT), and whether the Fieldbus is redundant (RD)
or non-redundant (NRD). These cabling configurations are shown in Figure 6-2 and
Figure 6-3 on page 193, and Figure 6-4 on page 194.
The remote Fieldbus extension is also used for Fieldbus communication with
Fieldbus Cluster I/O subsystem, SPEC 200 Control Integrator system, and
SPECTRUM Control Integrator system. Figure 6-5 is an example of a remote Field-
bus configuration consisting of both FBMs in an I/A Series enclosure, and Fieldbus
cards in a Fieldbus Cluster I/O subsystem. Figure 6-6 on page 195 is an example of
I/A Series fault-tolerant Control Processors with redundant Fieldbuses to a Fieldbus
Cluster I/O subsystem. For further information, refer to the appropriate document –
Fieldbus Cluster I/O User’s Guide (B0193RB), SPEC 200 Control Integrator User’s
Guide (B0193RD), or SPECTRUM Migration Integrator User’s Guide (B0193RC).
♦ Direct connection of an AW51B or AW51C processor to the Fieldbus. Refer to
“AW51B/AW51C Direct Connection to Fieldbus” on page 546.

ment (B0193UX) and the Network Cable Systems Installation and Maintenance
document (B0193UW) for information relating to planning and extending the Field-
bus, including power distribution and modems.
Local Fieldbus Extension, Cable Connections

To extend a Fieldbus locally, proceed as follows:
1. Make the cable connections shown in Figure 6-7 on page 195, Figure 6-8 on
page 196, Figure 6-9 on page 196, or Figure 6-10 on page 197, as appropriate for
your structure configuration. Note that the Fieldbus extension cable connectors are
keyed, to maintain upper/lower Fieldbus identity.
2. Insert a local Fieldbus enable jumper, Foxboro part number P0800ES, at the position
corresponding to the A connector (position) on the Control Processor. (Two jumpers
are required for the fault-tolerant Control Processor, each inserted at position A.) The
jumpers are either shipped in place, or are packaged with other small parts in the
enclosure.
NOTE
Terminators are factory installed for an unused upper or unused lower Fieldbus. For
local extensions do not use terminators in each open connector on the bus, or signal
degradation can occur. It is only necessary to use one terminator with a locally
extended bus.

Fieldbus Extension – An Alternate Cabling Method

For 1x8, 2x4, 2x8, and FBM-only mounting structures, the Fieldbus cabling can be configured as
shown in Figure 6-11 and Figure 6-12 on page 199 for increased protection against certain types
of cable failure (fail open). The scheme, however, reduces protection against a cable short.
Figure 6-11 shows a cabling arrangement for Fieldbus A and B on the upper Fieldbus. The lower
Fieldbus cabling is not shown. If the cable labeled A in Figure 6-11 develops a fault, then cable A
supports the Fieldbus A and B communication between two mounting structures. Note that since
there is no way to insert Fieldbus terminators such as shown in Figure 6-10, then Fieldbus Isola-
tors (FBIs) are required (one for Fieldbus A, and one for Fieldbus B) as shown in Figure 6-11.
Each FBI module has an integrated terminator.
Figure 6-12 on page 199 shows how the Fieldbus cabling can be arranged for a configuration with
extensions to multiple mounting structures. With this type of configuration, the Fieldbus A/B
cables labeled A and B (not to be confused with Fieldbus A and B) form one path to all mounting
structures. The cable labeled A’ forms the alternate Fieldbus A/B path. A Fieldbus Isolator module
is required as described in the previous paragraph.

Remote Fieldbus Extension, Cable Connections

Remote Fieldbus extension cable connections are implemented in one of three different configu-
rations, depending on whether the Control Processor is fault-tolerant or non-fault-tolerant, and
whether the Fieldbus is redundant or non-redundant. Refer to Figure 6-13 on page 201,
Figure 6-14 on page 201 and Figure 6-15 on page 202, or Figure 6-16 on page 202 and
Figure 6-17 on page 203, as appropriate for your configuration, and proceed as follows:
199
NOTE
Notations referenced in the above figures are explained in Figure 6-18 on page 203.
1. Referring to Figure 6-19 on page 204, assemble the termination blocks associated
with the Control Processor and Fieldbus Isolator termination cable assemblies
(TCAs), snap them onto the mounting rails (DIN rails), and connect the ground
wires. (For future reference, Figure 6-20 on page 204 illustrates how to remove the
TCA termination blocks.)
2. Make the cable connection(s) to the Control Processor(s).
3. Plug the termination connector(s) onto the Fieldbus Isolator module(s), and secure by
tightening the screw.
NOTE
When mounted in a Field Enclosure 4 the Isolator(s) must be located in the right-
most slot. When mounted in a 1x8 FBM mounting structure, Fieldbus Isolators
may be used in positions 1 and 5 (see Figure 4-44 on page 152). When mounted in
a 1x12 FBM mounting structure, Fieldbus Isolators may be used in slot 1 (see
Figure 4-45 on page 152). When mounted in a 2x8 FBM mounting structure,
Fieldbus Isolators may be used in positions 1, 5, 9, and 13. Refer also to the descrip-
tion“Y-Adapter Installation” on page 147.
4. Make the Fieldbus cable connections between termination cable assemblies.

5. Add the terminating resistors (supplied with the termination cable assemblies) accord-
ing to the following rules:
♦ Terminating resistors are used only at the ends of the bus.
♦ The Fieldbus can be extended in two directions from the Control Processor.
(Refer to Figure 6-21 on page 205.)
6. Connect an insulated 14 AWG green wire between connection point 3 (shield) on the
last Fieldbus Isolator termination cable assembly (or assemblies) and the earth bus in
the enclosure.

Fieldbus Configuration and Local Extension (1x8, 1x12, 2x8

FBM)
1x8 FBM
The 1x8 FBM (only) mounting structure contains two 4-slot molded connector blocks that house
eight modules as a combination of Fieldbus modules and Fieldbus Isolators. Each connector block
can be configured with either four Fieldbus modules (FBMs) or Fieldbus Isolator(s) (up to two
half-slot isolators) and three FBMs. Table 6-1 summarizes these configurations.
The Fieldbus Isolators occupy a half slot and must be located in either Slot 1 and/or Slot 5 of the
mounting structure. Typically, Fieldbus isolators (FBI A and FBI B from a control processor Ter-
mination Control Assembly (TCA) are installed in Slot 1 and then 7 FBMs can be installed when
those FBMs are assigned to one control processor. Alternately, two sets of FBIs A and B can be
installed in Slots 1 and 5 to form two groups of FBMs (Slots 2-4, and Slots 6-8). This configura-
tion scheme allows assignment of one group of three FBMs to an upper control processor, and
one group of three FBMs to a lower control processor in the enclosure. The FBI B isolators are
used in redundant installations.
There are four 8-pin telephone style jacks (J1-J4) above the 4-slot FBM connector blocks. Two
jacks are provided above each of the 4-slot connector blocks for local Fieldbus interface. These
jacks do not have to be terminated. (A terminator is integrated in the Fieldbus Isolator.) A short
telephone plug jumper cable (P0950CQ-K), between connector blocks, provides a common
Fieldbus and allows all FBM modules to be assigned to either the upper- or lower- local Fieldbus.
A second mounting structure (Fieldbus extension) would not necessarily require an isolator (24
FBMs per isolator) and could house 8 FBMs. Cables P0800DG and P0800DV extend the Field-
bus locally. Cable P0800DV is for extending an upper bus, and P0800DG for the lower bus.
205
FBMs can be installed in the structure in the following configurations:

♦ Eight upper bus and none lower bus, or none upper- and eight- lower bus (see config-
uration 3 below).
♦ Four upper bus and four lower bus (see configuration 4 below).
♦ With Fieldbus isolator(s). This reduces the FBM capacity (see configurations 1 and 2
below).
Table 6-1 summarizes the configurations.

Nodebus Extension
NOTE
The following items, which do not concern Nodebus cabling or extension proper,
are covered in “Dual Nodebus Interface Cabling” on page 483, “Dual Nodebus
10BaseT Interface Cabling” on page 498, and “Dual Nodebus Extender Cabling”
on page 508:
- Nodebus Interface
- Dual Nodebus Interface
- Dual Nodebus 10BaseT Interface
- Dual Nodebus Interface Extender.
A Nodebus can be extended using either coaxial or fiber optic cable. The following description
and procedures are for coaxial cable extensions. To extend the Nodebus using fiber, refer to the
Network Cable Systems Planning document (B0193UX) for a description of the allowed configura-
tions and distances, and to the Network Cable Systems Installation and Maintenance document
(B0193UW) to install the modules and fiber cable.
For fault-tolerant operation, the I/A Series Nodebus consists of two channels (designated A and
B). Accordingly, all Nodebus cabling, couplers, and extenders are configured in pairs to provide
two separate channel connections.
The Nodebus can be extended in the following ways:
1. Local Nodebus Extension within an enclosure – This extension involves
interconnecting mounting structure buses within an enclosure, and is normally per-
formed at the factory prior to shipment. Figure 6-24 illustrates a configuration of the
replacement of an existing older style cell bus. Note that there is an adapter box
(AK438AA-A) installed between the older existing Nodebus and a new extended
Nodebus. The adapter accommodates differences in the bus connectors.

2. Local Nodebus Extension Between Enclosures – This extension involves connecting

extension cables between mounting structure buses housed within two or more enclo-
sures. Coaxial cabling distances up to 30 m (100 ft) are possible. Figure 6-25 illus-
trates a typical configuration.
NOTE
Bridged IE32 enclosures are considered separate from one another with regard to
Nodebus cabling. The bridged enclosures therefore use the cabling concepts and
procedures presented under “Local Nodebus Extension Between Enclosures” on
page 213.
3. Remote Nodebus Extension Between Enclosures – This extension involves the use of
Nodebus Extender modules, used in pairs, to provide signal amplification and ground
isolation between Nodebus segments. Coaxial cabling distances up to 300 m
(1000 ft), and fiber optic cabling distances up to 2 km (1.24 mi) between segments
are possible. Figure 6-26 illustrates a typical configuration.
NOTE
Up to three Nodebus segments can be interconnected, for a total Nodebus cabling
distance of up to 697 m (2300 ft) with coaxial cabling, or 2 km (1.24 mi), includ-
ing segment lengths.

♦ P0902JM – 6 m (20 ft), Nodebus A extension cable
♦ P0902JN – 6 m (20 ft), Nodebus B extension cable
♦ P0902KZ – 15 m (50 ft), Nodebus A extension cable
♦ P0902LN – 15 m (50 ft), Nodebus B extension cable
The maximum Nodebus A and B extension between two enclosures is 30 m (100 ft). When con-
necting three enclosures using these cables, the combined lengths of Nodebus A and B extension
cables must not exceed 30 m (100 ft).
In addition to the Nodebus extension cables, other items used to complete the connection
between enclosures include (in each enclosure):
♦ Nodebus A and B interface cables
♦ One or more mounting bracket kits, to support the connection between the interface
cables and extension cables
♦ Possible need for adapter box as described in “Nodebus Connectors Adapter Box
(AK438AA)” on page 216.
These items, plus couplings to join cable extensions when required, are provided in kits
P0902CN, CP, and CQ, which are described as follows:
P0912CN – Used when the mounting structure buses being connected are both housed in 1- or
2-cell enclosures (IE32, IE16, IE8, or FE8).
213
♦ Contents:
♦ 2 – P0912CH Nodebus A interface cable, 0.3 m (1 ft)
♦ 2 – P0912CJ Nodebus B interface cable, 0.3 m (1 ft)
♦ 2 – P0902JQ Mounting bracket kit
♦ 2 – P0176UC Cable coupler
♦ 2 – P0902LV Cable coupler insulator.
Cable couplers and their associated insulators are used only when joining extension cables to
make longer lengths.
P0912CP – Used when one mounting structure bus is housed in a 1- or 2-cell enclosure (IE32,
IE16, IE8, or FE8) and the other is housed in a workstation bay, 1x8 mounting structure, or 2x8
mounting structure.
♦ Contents:
♦ 1 – P0912CH Nodebus A interface cable, 0.3 m (1 ft)
♦ 1 – P0912CJ Nodebus B interface cable, 0.3 m (1 ft)
♦ 1 – P0912CK Nodebus A interface cable, 1 m (3 ft)
♦ 1 – P0912CL Nodebus B interface cable, 1 m (3 ft)
P0912CQ – Used when the mounting structure buses being connected are both housed in work-
station bays, 1x8 mounting structures, or 2x8 mounting structures.
♦ Contents:
♦ 2 – P0912CK Nodebus A interface cable, 1 m (3 ft)
♦ 2 – P09912CL Nodebus B interface cable, 1 m (3 ft)
If the cable coupler is used to join two Nodebus extension cables, the coupler insulator must be
used to ensure that the bare metal parts of the cable connectors are electrically insulated. The cou-
pler insulator, P0902LV, is a 100 mm (4 in) piece of heat-shrinkable tubing. To install the coupler
insulator, proceed as follows:
1. Slide the coupler insulator over the end of one of the extension cables to be joined.
2. Attach the extension cables to the cable coupler.
3. Slide the coupler insulator over the cable coupler so that no metal parts are exposed.
4. Fix the coupler insulator in place by heating so that the insulator shrinks. (A blow-
type commercial heater or household hair dryer may be used for this purpose.)
214
The mounting bracket kit (Figure 6-29) contains two types of screws, machine and self-
tapping. The machine screws attach the DIN rail clamps to the mounting bracket; the self-tap-
ping screws attach the bracket to a plastic partition in the enclosure (such as, in the
Modular Industrial Workstation) when necessary. Hardware for attaching the interface cables to
the bracket is included with the interface cables.
To extend a Nodebus locally between enclosures, make the cable connections as shown in
Figure 6-30.
NOTE
Local Nodebus extension cabling between enclosures that contain 1x8 mounting
structures (for example, the Modular Industrial Workstation) is similar in principle
to the local Nodebus extension cabling between 1- and 2-cell enclosures. (The main
differences are the types of Nodebus interface cables used and cable routing tech-
niques used within the enclosure. Refer to the Modular Industrial Workstation Instal-
lation document (B0193CE) for details.)

Nodebus Terminators Installation

A sufficient quantity of ground leads, referred to as SSB terminators, is shipped separately with
the system equipment for terminating the ends of the Nodebus. The terminators need to be fas-
tened to appropriate ground screws. The ground connection can be made either to the DIN rail,
or to the nearest chassis screw on the cell bus at the rear of the structure.
The leads have plugs at one end for inserting into the end of the structure cell bus. The other end
of each SSB terminator lead has a ring lug. Fasten the ring lug to either a chassis screw on the back
of the structure as shown, for example, in Figure 6-31, or to a convenient ground screw such as on
a DIN rail.

6. At the Nodebus termination assemblies, connect the Nodebus extension cables to the
interface cables by mating the N-type connectors (Figure 6-28).
! CAUTION
When connecting the Nodebus extension cables, be careful not to cross connect the
cables. Connect point A on both Nodebus termination assemblies to each other,
and do the same for point B.
7. Slip the rubber boots on the Nodebus extension cables over the N-type connectors.
! WARNING
The rubber boots must be installed over the N-type connectors to prevent electrical
shock hazard.
8. Determine which of the Nodebus extender module pair is the A module and which is
the B module. This is done by observing the sixth (right-most) letterbug on each
module, which contains either the letter A or B.
9. Connect the peripheral connector jacks of Nodebus interface cables P0800KE to posi-
tion A on each of the Nodebus extender modules, as shown in Figure 6-34.
10. Connect the interface cable (P0800KE) from Nodebus extender module A to Node-
bus termination bracket position A, and connect the interface cable (P0800KE) from
Nodebus extender module B to Nodebus termination bracket position B.
! CAUTION
The Nodebus A and B interface cables must be connected exactly as described in
Steps 9 and 10. Failure to do so results in improper system operation.
221
11. Insert a power connector jack, Foxboro part number P0800FZ, at position D on each
of the Nodebus extender modules. (The power connector jacks are packaged in the
enclosure, along with other small parts.)
12. Engage the peripheral connector plugs (on the modules) by inserting the hex driver
tool into the peripheral connector engagement actuator slots (on the front of the
modules) and turning 1/2-turn clockwise.

7. Termination Cable Assembly
(TCA) Installation
This chapter contains procedures for installing the termination cable assemblies (TCAs) into
the I/A Series enclosures. The TCAs provide the means of connecting field signals to the
I/A Series equipment. (See “Field Connections” on page 239 for information on making the
actual field connections.)
NOTE
For installation information relating to the termination assemblies (TAs) use with
the DIN rail subsystem, refer to DIN Rail FBM Subsystem User’s Guide (B0400FA)
and FOUNDATION fieldbus H1 Interface Module (FBM220/221) User Guide
(B0400FD), I/A Series® PROFIBUS-DPTM Communication Interface Module
(FBM223) User’s Guide (B0400FE) and I/A Series® HART TM Communication Inter-
The following information assumes that all modules have been installed according to the informa-
tion developed during the planning phase (tag list/FoxCAE).
Figure 7-1 shows four types of TCAs:
♦ Direct Connect
♦ Plug (Bulk) Connector
♦ Discrete Wire Connector
♦ ECEP Ring Lug Connector (not shown).
The direct connect TCA is used only with Field Enclosure 4. The plug connector and discrete
wire connector TCAs are used with all other enclosures and mounting structures.
The ECEP ring lug connectors (not shown) are used with the power group of FBMs. These con-
nector blocks provide field termination for an FBM that accepts ring lugs, fork lugs, or properly
stripped, stranded field wiring (from 12 AWG through 22 AWG). Each terminal block contains
6-32 screws with a wire clamping plate.

The direct connect and discrete wire termination cable assemblies are equipped with labels that
show the individual field wire connections for each type of Fieldbus Module.
NOTE
The TCA labels, which correspond to the various types of FBMs, are shown along
with the field connection information for the FBMs under “Field Connections” on
page 239. The plug connector TCA does not have a label. Connections to this
block are shown for each type of FBM under “Field Connections” on page 239.
Due to the complexity of the 2- and 3-tiered discrete wire block connectors, the following subsec-
tions present a brief explanation of how to read the labels, and how to associate that information
with the actual connector.
2-Tiered Discrete Wire Block Connector

The cable terminator labelling and the associated input/output connectors for a 2-tiered
discrete wire block connector (with 8 terminals on each tier) are detailed in Figure 7-2 and
Figure 7-3. Illustrated above the actual label in Figure 7-2, is a representation of the 2 tiers of con-
nection on the discrete wire block connector. The label, illustrated in Figure 7-2, indicates that
the positive (+) connection of the number one field device is made in the number one (1) top row
connector and the negative (-) connection is made in the number one (1) bottom row connector.
The P+ connection is made in the top row connector, labelled number two (2). This general
sequence is repeated for the remaining field devices.

Field Enclosure 4, TCA Installation

To attach the termination cable assemblies (TCAs) to the FE4, proceed as follows:
1. Locate the appropriate TCA for the Fieldbus Module in question.
226
! CAUTION
The termination connectors are keyed to match the associated Fieldbus
Modules, thus ensuring that the proper termination connector is installed on each
Fieldbus Module. When attaching the termination connectors to the
Fieldbus Modules, do not use excessive force. Doing so could result in damaged
keys and/or faulty operation of the equipment.
2. Shape the TCA cable as shown in Figure 7-6, and insert the cable into the cable recep-
tacle.
3. Snap the termination block onto the mounting plate by inserting the hooks at the rear
of the termination block into the square holes in the mounting plate.
4. Using the hex driver tool, screw the termination connector onto the Fieldbus Module.
5. Make up a module identifier from letterbugs (shown in Figure 7-7). The module
identifier consists of six interlocking letterbugs which produce a 6-character
module identification code that is visually and electrically readable. A packet contain-
ing tubes of letterbugs is supplied with each Fieldbus Module.
NOTE
The module ID must be obtained from the information developed during the site
planning phase supplied with this enclosure.
6. Plug the module identifier into the termination connector (Figure 7-7).
7. Repeat Steps 1 through 6 to install all TCAs in this enclosure.
To make field connections to the Fieldbus Modules in a FE4, refer to the specific field connection
information in the next section (“Field Connections” on page 239) and proceed as follows:
1. Locate the appropriate connection block (directly beneath the FBM).
2. Route field cable(s) into the enclosure, to the connection block. (Labels on the con-
nection blocks indicate the FBM type, and provide connection information unique to
the individual FBMs.)
3. Using the individual screw-clamp terminals, make connections to the block as shown
in Figure 7-8.

Other Enclosures and Structures, TCA Installation

Enclosures and mounting structures other than the Field Enclosure 4 to which field wiring can be
connected, include the following:
♦ Industrial Enclosure 16
♦ Industrial Enclosure 32
♦ IEMFA/IEMFR (ME24/ME32) (Metal Enclosures)
♦ Metal Field Enclosure 8
♦ 1x8, 2x8, 1x8 FBM, and 2x8 FBM mounting structures (mounted in appropriate
rack)
♦ 1x12 FBM mounting structures mounted in an appropriate enclosure:
♦ in metal enclosure which fulfills requirements listed in the 1x12 Fieldbus
Module Mounting Structure Installation and Wiring Instructions
document (B0400PK), or
♦ in a Fieldbus Module Metal Enclosure 60. Refer to the 1x12 Fieldbus Module
Mounting Structure Installation and Wiring Instructions document (B0400PK) for

(B0193RB) for further information.
♦ SPEC 200 Control Integrator subsystem. Refer to the SPEC 200 Control Integrator
User’s Guide (B0193RD) for further information.
♦ SPECTRUM Control Integrator. Refer to the SPECTRUM Migration Integrator
(B0193RC) manual for further information.
These enclosures use the discrete wire and plug connector TCAs (shown in Figure 7-1). Enclo-
sures which use the discrete wire TCAs are equipped with DIN mounting rails; enclosures which
229
utilize the plug connector TCAs are equipped with either DIN mounting rails or plug connector
mounting plates.
The following subsections present procedures for installing and connecting field wires to these
TCAs.
Installation of Discrete Wire TCA

NOTE
The cable length of the discrete wire TCA is 44 in (1117 mm). When planning the
placement of connector blocks in the field termination areas of the enclosures, this
cable length must be taken into consideration. This is critical for the Industrial
Enclosure 32, in which possible cable routes can easily exceed the 44 inch limit. To
avoid cable length limitation problems in the IE32, place the connector blocks in
the same half (upper or lower) of the enclosure as the associated Fieldbus Modules.
To install the discrete wire TCAs, proceed as follows:
! CAUTION
Fieldbus Modules, do not use excessive force. To do so could result in damaged keys
and/or faulty operation of the equipment.
1. If the enclosure is an IE16, IE32, or FE8:

a. Snap the discrete wire block onto the DIN rail.
b. Referring to Figure 7-9, insert the termination connector through the large open-
ing in the enclosure side wall, near the center of mounting structure where the
Fieldbus Module is located.
c. Plug the termination connector onto the appropriate Fieldbus Module.
2. If the enclosure is a IEMFA/IEMFR (ME24/ME32) or Metal FE8:
a. Plug the termination connector onto the appropriate Fieldbus Module.
b. Route the discrete wire block and cable to the area of the DIN rails and snap the
block onto the DIN rail (in the desired location).
NOTE
If the discrete wire block is to be mounted on the lower DIN rail of a metal FE8
enclosure, route the block and cable from behind the DIN rail mounting assembly.

identifier consists of six interlocking letterbugs which produce a 6-character module
identification code that is visually and electrically readable. A packet containing tubes
of letterbugs is supplied with each Fieldbus Module.
NOTE
6. Plug the module identifier into the termination connector. See Figure 7-7.
7. Write the module ID (module identifier code) in the space provided on the label
affixed to the discrete wire block(s). Refer to Figure 7-10.

Field Connections to Discrete Wire Block

All wires should be routed into the enclosure. Identify the field device to which each wire is con-
nected and sort the wires by wire block. Each discrete wire block contains a label showing all con-
nections peculiar to this TCA type.
NOTE
For large input/output field cables, it is recommended that the outer jacket be
stripped from the field cable, from the TCA connection points to where the cables
enter the enclosure.
To make field connections to a discrete wire block, refer to the specific field connection informa-
tion in the next section (“Field Connections” on page 239) and proceed as follows:
1. Starting with the discrete wire connection blocks nearest to the bottom of the enclo-
sure, select and segregate all of the wires to be connected to the blocks.
2. Using the individual screw-clamp terminals, make connections to the appropriate ter-
minals as shown in Figure 7-11.
3. Provide strain relief for the I/O signal cables as follows:
a. If the enclosure is an IE16, IE32, or FE8, use the strain relief cable straps located
in the field termination area of the enclosure.
b. If the enclosure is an IEMFA (ME24) or IEMFR (ME32), using nylon cable ties,
fasten the cables to the cross members (depth bars) located in the sides of the
enclosure cable way area.
c. If the enclosure is a metal FE8, using nylon cable ties, fasten the cables to the wire
hooks at the front of the enclosure.
4. Repeat Steps 1, 2, and 3 for all discrete wire blocks in this enclosure.

Fieldbus Modules, do not use excessive force. To do so could result in damaged keys
and/or faulty operation of the equipment.
1. If the enclosure is an IE16, IE32, or FE8:

a. Attach the plug connector block to the plug connector mounting plate, as shown
in Figure 7-12.
b. Insert the termination connector through the large opening in the enclosure side
wall, near the center of mounting structure where the Fieldbus Module is located.
c. Plug the termination connector onto the appropriate Fieldbus Module.

Figure 7-15. Plug Connector Field Wiring Scheme, Typical Configuration
To make the field connections to the plug connector block, refer to Figure 7-15 and proceed as
follows:
1. Identify all wires to be connected to the plug connector block with regard to the field
devices from which they originate.
2. Connect the wires from the field devices to a user-supplied termination strip or other
connection facility in a marshalling area external to the enclosure housing the Fieldbus
Modules.
Using Figure 7-15 as a guide, fashion the necessary cable(s) to make connections between the
marshalling area and the Foxboro plug connector block in the enclosure housing the Fieldbus
Modules. Make the connections to the plug connector block as indicated for each specific FBM
type, as shown under “Field Connections” on page 239.

8. Field Connections
This chapter provides general information regarding field wiring (specifically, classes of field
wiring and earthing of I/O signal shields) and also includes specific field wiring connection
information for each FBM type.
NOTE
For field connection information relating to the DIN rail FBM subsystem, refer to
DIN Rail Mounted FBM Subsystem User’s Guide (B0400FA) and FOUNDATION
fieldbus H1 Interface Module (FBM220/221) User Guide (B0400FD), I/A Series®
PROFIBUS-DPTM Communication Interface Module (FBM223) User’s Guide
(B0400FE) and I/A Series® HARTTM Communication Interface Module
Classes of Field Wiring

Field (I/O signal) wiring associated with the I/A Series enclosures is divided into three classes:
♦ High Voltage (HV) – wires carrying voltages above 30 V ac rms (42.4 V peak) or
60 V dc.
♦ Low Voltage (LV) – wires carrying voltages at or below 30 V ac rms (42.4 V peak) or
60 V dc. These are termed “Class 2” circuits in the U.S. and Canada. See Note.
♦ Nonincendive (NI) – wires which enter or leave the equipment enclosure and which
under normal operating conditions of the equipment when shorted, opened or
grounded are not capable, due to arcing or thermal effects, of igniting the
specified flammable gas/vapor-in-air mixture or combustible dust.
NOTE
The power sources in the FBM are voltage and power limited to Class 2 levels as
defined in the National Electrical Code (NFPA-70), Article 725 and the
Canadian Electrical Code, Section 16 (CSA C22.1). Field circuits that are con-
nected to only the FBM power sources are, by definition, Class 2 circuits. Field cir-
cuits that connect to an external, non-FBM power source will only be Class 2 if the
external power source is listed/certified as Class 2. This is important to understand
because the U.S. National and the Canadian electrical codes have specific require-
ments that apply to wiring methods used for Class 2 circuits.
For reasons of personnel safety, it is mandatory that these three classes of wiring be kept
separate from each other. The minimum allowable distance between wires or groups of wires of
different classes is 50 mm (2 in) at all points in the wire run. This requires the use of tie-downs to
ensure that the spacing is maintained.
239
B0193AC – Rev T 8. Field Connections
! CAUTION
Accidentally connecting a field input to an I/A Series output channel will
seriously damage the associated Fieldbus Module.
! WARNING
Do not mix any of the three aforementioned classes of wiring (for example, HV and
LV) on the same connection block. Failure to separate the three aforementioned
classes of wiring (as described herein) could result in injury to personnel.
The following subsection describes specific wire grouping and routing methods for each I/A Series
enclosure type.
! WARNING
With isolated inputs such as thermocouples, it is possible that the leads may have
been inadvertently connected to (or otherwise may have made contact with) hazard-
ous voltages. Therefore, hazardous extraneous voltage capable of causing severe
injury or death may exist between thermocouple leads and ground. Disconnecting
the instrument power may not remove this voltage. Measure for the presence of
voltage between each sensor lead and ground before servicing associated equipment.
Field Wire Grouping Within the Enclosures

NOTE
The following notes apply to field wire grouping:
1. The information presented herein describes routing of wires inside the I/A Series
enclosures. For information on wire routing outside the enclosures, refer to Site
Planning (B0193AB).
2. If a user-supplied I/O cable has a bend radius greater than 150 mm (6 in), the
rack may be reconfigured using a Foxboro part number P0901RA bracket.
! CAUTION
All signal wires (regardless of wire class) must be routed separately from enclosure
main power cables, whether inside or outside of the enclosure.
Field wire grouping consists of maintaining, within the I/A Series enclosures, separation of field
wires associated with the aforementioned classes (HV, LV, and NI). The methods of
separation used depend on the type of I/A Series enclosure:
♦ Industrial Enclosure 32 – Each Industrial Enclosure 32 contains two field termination
areas, one on each side (left and right) of the enclosure. The field wires must be
grouped such that only field wires of one class (HV, LV, or NI) are used per field ter-
mination area (that is, wires of two different classes may not be mixed in the same
field termination area).
240
8. Field Connections B0193AC – Rev T
NOTE
Bridged Industrial Enclosure 32s are viewed as separate and distinct enclosures with
regard to wire grouping. This is because the bridge assembly or assemblies provide
the necessary spacing between wire groups.
♦ Industrial Enclosure 16 – The same rules apply as for Industrial Enclosure 32.
♦ Field Enclosure 8, Floor-Mounted - The same rules apply as for Industrial
Enclosure 32.
♦ Field Enclosure 8, Wall-Mounted – Because this version of the enclosure has only one
field termination area, only one class of field wiring (one wire group) is allowed per
enclosure.
♦ Field Enclosure 4 – Field wires must be grouped and routed as shown in Figure 8-1.
Separate cable entry points must be provided in the conduit enclosure plate at the bot-
tom of the enclosure. These entry points must be separated from each other by at least
50 mm, and must be spaced at least 50 mm from the enclosure main power conduit.
♦ 1x8 mounting structures, 1x8 FBM mounting structures, 1x12 FBM mounting struc-
tures, 2x8 mounting structures, and 2x8 FBM mounting structures – you must
provide a minimum 50 mm (2 in) spacing between wires (and termination cable
assemblies) associated with different field wiring classes (HV, LV, and NI). Maintain
this separation through the use of cable ties, insulating barriers or conduit, as appro-
priate for the installation.
♦ IEMFA/IEMFR (ME24/ME32), Metal FE8, and Termination Enclosures – Wire sep-
aration considerations are the same as for the 1x8 mounting structure.

FBMs with Nonincendive Field Circuits

Some FBMs are equipped with field circuits that are nonincendive when installed in accordance
with specified limitations. This allows ordinary location wiring methods to be used on Division 2
hazardous locations.
Ordinary location wiring methods for nonincendive circuits are acceptable for use in Class I,
Division 2, Groups A-D hazardous locations by both the U.S. National (NFPA-70) and Canadian
(CSA C22.1) Electrical Codes. In the U.S. they are also acceptable for Class II, Division 2, Group
G and Groups E and F, with resistivities greater than 100,000 ohms/centimeter.
Factory Mutual (FM) approval and Canadian Standards Association (CSA) certification of FBMs
are used in defined systems that have been FM approved and CSA certified as evidenced by the
FM or CSA approval/certification markings on the overall system enclosures.
Earthing (Grounding) of I/O Signal Shields

The following rules should be observed with regard to earthing of field I/O signal shields.
1. If the field device is powered by a user power source (at the device end), earth the
shield at the field device end.
2. If the field device is powered at the I/A Series end, connect the shields to an isolated
(user-supplied) bus bar, and then to “quiet” ground.
3. If a marshalling cabinet is used, rules 1 and 2 apply, except that in rule 2, the shields
should be connected to earth within the marshalling cabinet.
Refer to Site Planning (B0193AB) for more detailed information on earthing of I/O signal shields.

If an I/A Series Intelligent Transmitter is used with FBM01, FBM04, FBM05, or FBM37, an in-line
resistor assembly (P0902VY) must be added in series with the transmitter. FBM01, FBM04,
or FBM05 can use any of the following termination assembly types:
FBM01 FBM04 FBM05

(Direct) P0700AB P0700AF
(Bulk) P0700DJ P0700DN
(Discrete) P0400HH P0500RY P0903SA
The above illustration shows the connection scheme using the in-line resistor assembly (P0902VY)
with a discrete wire or direct connect termination block.
NOTE: When the plug (bulk) connector is used, the connection scheme is electrically identical to
that used for the discrete wire or direct connection block (as depicted above). The connection differs
physically in that the in-line resistor assembly is installed in the user’s marshalling cabinet
rather than in the I/A Series enclosure.
To install the in-line resistor assembly, refer to the above drawing and perform the following steps:
1. Refer to the left half of the illustration above and cut the in-line resistor assembly (P0902VY) at
a point directly opposite the 200-ohm covered resistor.
2. Strip 10 mm (0.375 in) of insulation from the wire ends.
3. Refer to the right half of the illustration above and connect the wire end that is nearest the resistor
assembly label to the plus (+) terminal on the termination block.
4. Insert the other wire end into the insulated splice provided, together with the filed wire from the
minus terminal on the Intelligent Transmitter, and crimp the wires together using an electrician’s
pliers or crimping tool.

FBM07/FBM12 Field Connections

NOTE
When you make contact input connections to FBM07 or FBM12, specific rules
must be observed regarding the isolated/nonisolated electrical characteristics of the
contacts. Refer to Figure 8-41 for details.
! WARNING
Regarding FBM07s and FBM12s: Inputs to these FBMs are isolated in pairs (for
example, channels 1 and 2 are isolated from channels 3 and 4). When inputs having
hazardous voltages (greater than 30 V ac rms or 60 V dc) are used, hazardous and
nonhazardous voltages must not be mixed within a channel pair.
Plug connection block field connections are shown in Figure 8-42 (for voltage monitoring) and
Figure 8-43 on page 265 (for contact sensing).
TCA labels are shown in Figure 8-44 (FBM07A/12A) on page 265 and Figure 8-45 on page 266
(FBM07B/12B).

As shown above, the contact input channels for FBMs 7B/9C/9D/12B/14C/14D/17C

and 17D are isolated in pairs. The following rules apply:
1. Isolated (ungrounded) and nonisolated (grounded) contacts may be mixed in a

channel pair (for example, CH 1 and CH 2). Note, however, that both contact pairs
are grounded (in common) when this connection is implemented.
2. If a nonisolated (grounded) contact is used as an input to a particular channel

(for example, CH 1), the alternate channel in the pair (CH 2) may also be used with a
nonisolated contact, provided that the ground leads of both contact inputs connect
to the “CS” input terminals.
3. If a Status Tap input is used for a particular channel, the adjacent channel in the
pair must be left unused, or used with an isolated (ungrounded) contact.

FBM17A-D Field Connections

! CAUTION
As indicated in Figure 8-72 through Figure 8-77, FBM17A and FBM17B have two
types of connections – agency certified and non-agency certified. When making
connections to the FBM17A or FBM17B connector block, be sure to check the part
number printed on the TCA cable. Failure to do so (that is, making the wrong con-
nections to the block) could cause damage to the FBM.
TCA labels are shown in Figure 8-78 on page 284 through Figure 8-81 on page 286.
For reference purposes, schematic diagrams of the FBM17 input/output circuitry are shown in
Figure 8-82 on page 286 through Figure 8-85 on page 287.
NOTE
1. When making contact input connections to FBM17, specific rules must be
observed regarding the isolated/nonisolated electrical characteristics of the contacts.
Refer to Figure 8-41 on page 264 for details.
2. When using digital outputs with inductive loads from FBM17, protective diodes
must be used across the loads (see Figure 8-71).
! WARNING
Regarding FBM17: Inputs to this FBM are isolated in pairs (for example,
channels 1 and 2 are isolated from channels 3 and 4). When inputs having

***If the 0 to 10 V input field writing is disconnected, the FBM input does not drop immediately to 0 V.
Instead, there is a slow decay to 0 V.
For voltage measuring inputs, a bleeder resistor can be placed across the “+” and “-” terminals to
quicken the response. Discharge time can be estimated by the formula: t = 9x10-6 R.
For slide wire inputs, placement of a bleeder resistor introduces an error in the input. This error is
zero at zero input, and at full scale, the error is at a maximum at mid scale. Calculate the error with
the formula:
100Rs
% error ( max ) = -------------------------
4Rb + Rs
where Rb = bleeder resistance, and Rs = total resistance of the slide wire. For example, with an
Rs = 100 k ohm and Rb = 1 M ohm, the midscale error is at 2.44%. The resulting error can be
compensated by extending the AIN block that reads the input with a CHAR block. The CHAR
block can be configured to virtually eliminate the error.
NOTE:
Diode required for inductive load only. The diode used must be capable of conducting the maximum
expected load current, and have a voltage rating greater than 1.3 times the supply voltage.

* Contact sense logic is isolated from ground. However, the common of each contact
sense logic circuit is tied to the minus side of the 48 V power supply. [This connection is made
within the termination cable assembly (TCA).]
** Power supply is isolated from ground.
***Connection made internal to TCA.
As shown in the diagrams above, the contact input channels for FBMs 24B/24C/25B/25C/26B/
26C/27B/27C are nonisolated. (All of the CS input terminals are tied together internally.)
Therefore, the following rules apply.
1. Isolated (ungrounded) and nonisolated (grounded) contacts may be combined for a
particular FBM. Note, however, that all contact inputs are grounded (in common)
when this connection is implemented.
2. If nonisolated (grounded) contact inputs are used, all ground leads from the contacts
must connect to the CS input terminals.
3. If a status tap input is used for a particular channel, all other channels must be left
unused, or used with isolated (ungrounded) contacts.

NOTE
The following notes apply to the FBM26/27 field connections:
1. When making contact input connections to FBM26 or FBM27, specific rules
must be observed regarding the isolated/nonisolated electrical characteristics of the
contacts. Refer to Figure 8-101 on page 296 for details.
2. When using digital outputs with inductive loads from FBM26 or 27, protective
diodes must be used across the loads (see Figure 8-110).

NOTE
The following notes apply to the FBM41/42 field connections:
1. All contact input channels for FBM41C and FBM42C are isolated. Therefore,
isolated (ungrounded) and nonisolated (grounded) contact inputs may be
combined. Also, the status tap input may be used for any contact input
channel, regardless of the isolated or nonisolated characteristics of the other
contact inputs
2. When using digital outputs with inductive loads from FBM26 or FBM27, protec-
tive diodes must be used across the loads (see Figure 8-142).
Plug connection block field connections are shown in Figure 8-143 and Figure 8-144.
TCA labels are shown in Figure 8-145 through Figure 8-146 on page 319.

Using the Cable Balun Module with Intelligent

Transmitters
The cable balun (P0903SV) module maintains digital communication line balance between up to
four Intelligent Transmitters (ITs) and FBM channels when there are FBM loops that are powered
by a common external power supply. Figure 8-170 illustrates the electrical connections to the
cable balun module from two IT channels, an external power supply, and two FBMs for Intelli-
gent Transmitters such as FBM43/44/46. The cable balun module contains four baluns and can
accept connections from four FBM channels, four transmitters, and an external power supply.

Installing the Cable Balun Module

The cable balun module (P0903SV) is normally mounted on a DIN rail in the enclosure, nearest
the FBM(s) associated with it. The back of the module fits to the DIN rail. Two strain relief
brackets secure the module to the rail and also provide tie points for the cable wiring. To install
the module, refer to Figure 8-170 and Figure 8-171 and perform the following steps:
1. Orient the module as shown in the front view and slip the module against the DIN
rail (1).
2. Locate the 2 DIN rail mounting and cable strain relief brackets (2), and install them
on the DIN rail on the top and bottom of the module. The end of each bracket (with
the holes for the wire tie) should face toward the middle of the enclosure.
3. With the module in one hand, slide the strain relief brackets vertically with your other
hand, to the location on the rail where you want to mount and secure the module.
4. Press the other side of the module (3) in against the DIN rail until it snaps in place.
Slide the brackets securely against the module.
5. Insert the positive wires to an FBM and the associated IT in the holes associated with
(4) and (5) respectively, and secure each of these wires by tightening the
associated screw against the wire with a small flat-bladed screw driver. The positive
module terminals are: 1, 3, 5, and 7. Choose one of these terminals on each side of the
balun module.

Redundant FBM Operational Considerations

FBM04s, FBM05s, FBM06s, FBM39s, FBM44s, and FBM46s are offered in optional
redundant configurations. (For information on how the field input/output signals associated with
these FBMs are implemented, refer to Hardware Descriptions (B0193AE).) In order to properly
utilize the redundant configurations of these FBMs, the following issues must be considered:
♦ Fail-Safe Parameter Configuration
♦ Operational Status Checks
♦ Manual Control of FBM Outputs
♦ Module Removal and Replacement
♦ Letterbug Identifiers for FBM46.
These issues are addressed in the following subsections.
333
Fail-Safe Parameter Configuration

Proper operation of the redundant FBMs requires that the fail-safe parameters in the ECBs associ-
ated with both FBMs (main and backup) be correctly configured. In general, the FBM outputs
must be configured to fail to a zero value in order to allow the opposite (nonfailed) FBM to
assume (or continue) control without interference from the failed module. Table 8-1 outlines the
fail-safe parameter requirements.
Table 8-1. Required Fail-Safe Parameter Settings for Redundant FBM ECBs
Parameter Description Required Setting

FSENAB Enables/disables fail-safe settings for all FBM channels. Enabled
FSDLAY Delay time for communications to have ceased before Per process/system
the fail-safe values are asserted on the outputs. Affects security requirements
all FBM channels.
FSMMxx Specifies the fail-safe action to be taken on each of the Fail-safe value
outputs: use fail-safe value, or hold at last value.
FSDMxx Fail-safe values (one per channel). Zero
For information on how to set these parameters, refer to the following I/A Series documents:
♦ Integrated Control Software Concepts (B0193AW)
♦ Integrated Control Configurator (B0193AV).
Operational Status Checks

Use the following operational status checks (maintenance procedures) to determine the
operational status of the redundant FBMs.
FBM04, FBM06, FBM39, and FBM44 (Redundant Output),

and FBM05 and FBM46 (Redundant I/O) Maintenance Procedure
The following maintenance procedure pertains to two separate configurations:
♦ The FBM04, FBM06, FBM39, or FBM44 configuration using dual transmitters and
a single I/P with termination cable assembly P0903SB (FBM04, FBM44) or
P0903TW (FBM06), and
♦ The redundant input/output configuration using termination cable assembly
♦ P0903SA for FBM05
♦ P0950DF for FBM46.
These configurations require periodic maintenance (status checks) to detect any latent faults in
the individual output channels.
Since the redundant connection of two FBMs allows continuous operation even if one of the
modules fails, you must perform a maintenance procedure to assure the integrity of both modules.
The purpose of this procedure is to detect any latent fault in a module that might be masked by
the redundant module. The Foxboro Company recommends performing this maintenance proce-
dure every three months.
334
Check the following items periodically as described in the following paragraphs:

♦ Input channels
♦ Output channels
♦ Termination cable assembly components.
FBM05 Input Channels

A difference in the values measured by each input channel of a pair indicates a module fault.
A zero reading indicates the loss of an input connection or a shorted sense resistor. The power
supplies of each input channel of a redundant pair are diode OR’d on the termination block
assembly. The individual sources on the FBM side of the diodes can be checked at the PA and PB
terminals of the terminal block for each input channel. The sources may be measured with a volt-
meter relative to the minus (-) terminal for that input.
FBM04, 05, 06, 39, 44, and 46 Output Channels

If one module output fails to zero (output value reaches 0), or is at a lower value than the other
output, the higher value module output overrides the lower value module by forward biasing the
diode connected across the output of the failed output channel. This condition produces a latent
fault that you need to detect by performing a periodic maintenance procedure. Note also that if a
module output should fail to a high value, this higher value predominates and can only be
detected when the current reaches an alarm threshold value. If the higher value is below the alarm
threshold, you can detect this failing condition by trying to change it (periodic maintenance), or
detect it later if the value rises to trigger an alarm.
Output channels can be verified by using cable assembly P0912MP (Figure 8-172). This cable
assembly consists of a plug for the bypass jack and standard banana plugs to connect to a multim-
eter set to dc milliamps.
FOXBORO
Figure 8-172. Cable Assembly P0912MP
When the plug is inserted into the bypass jack, the multimeter is placed in the current loop. No
interruption of current flow occurs because the opposite module in the redundant pair takes over
and maintains the current flow during any transient while inserting the plug. Note the current

value, remove the plug, and perform the same measurement with the other corresponding mod-
ule. The current measurements should be the same.
Summary of Redundant FBM Failure Conditions

Table 8-2 summarizes the FBM04, FBM06, FBM39, FBM44, and FBM46 output, and FBM05
input/output conditions.

bad module.
The output of the good module You cannot detect this condition until the module output
equals the output of the bad values differ. If the outputs are the same because of a “fail in
module (that is, “failed in place,” the output is driven to the desired value. The good
place”). module must drive the output to a new desired value before
you can detect a difference using the maintenance procedure.
Manual Control of Redundant FBM Outputs

Manual control of redundant FBM outputs can be effected using the output bypass station (just
as it can for non-redundant FBM outputs). However, while one or more outputs of a redundant
module are being manipulated, the corresponding outputs in the opposite module must be dis-
abled to prevent interference. This is accomplished by inserting “blank” plugs into the corre-
sponding output jacks on the opposite module. The blank plugs can be the P0912MP cable
assembly with one or both of the banana plugs removed from the multimeter (or use Switchcraft
Model TT-253 plugs).
Redundant FBM Removal and Replacement

To remove either FBM module in a redundant pair, simply disconnect its termination
connector and remove the module from the mounting structure. Use of the output bypass
station is not necessary because the opposite module takes over control immediately. Reverse the
procedure for module replacement.
FBM Replacement using the Output Bypass Station

During the process of replacing a non-redundant analog output FBM (FBM04/06/22/37/39/44
used in a non-redundant configuration), the output bypass station (OBS) is used to transfer the
outputs to standby (manual) control.
To remove a non-redundant analog output FBM, proceed as follows:
336
NOTE
The following procedure does not apply to redundant FBMs. To use the OBS to
effect control of redundant FBM outputs, refer to “Manual Control of Redundant
FBM Outputs” on page 336.
! CAUTION
Refer to the following cautions before proceeding:
1. The following procedure requires switching of FBM analog outputs to
“Manual.” Before performing this procedure, take any necessary measures to ensure
that the switch to manual will not adversely affect the process under control.
2. To minimize any bump in the process, each mode switch on the OBS must be in
the “N” (Normal) position before inserting the plugs into the FBM. There will be a
momentary bump when inserting and removing each plug, and when switching the
mode switch.
1. Connect the OBS to the FBM to be replaced, as shown in Figure 8-173, taking note
of the following:
a. Normally, the OBS output plugs are connected to all 4 output jacks of the FBM,
to allow removal of the FBM while maintaining manual control of the outputs to
the field devices.
b. The red output cable corresponds to Mode Switch 1, Output Adjustment 1, and
the associated meters. Likewise, the green output cable corresponds to Mode
Switch 2, Output Adjustment 2, and the associated meters.

2. For each of the four FBM outputs:
337
a. From the I/A Series process operations displays, switch the analog output block to
manual.
b. Vary the output adjustment on the OBS for a null (center-scale) reading on the
deviation meter.
c. Place the mode switch on the OBS in the “S” (Standby) position.
3. Having made the transfer to standby (manual) control for each output, from the
I/A Series system management displays, switch the FBM to “off-line.”
4. The TCA can now be detached from the FBM, and the FBM can be removed from
the mounting structure. (While in the standby mode, the OBS is acting as the FBM.)
To install a new FBM, proceed as follows:
1. Place the FBM in the mounting structure and attach the TCA.
2. From the I/A Series system management displays, place the FBM on-line.
3. For each of the four FBM outputs:
a. Using the I/A Series process operations displays, manually adjust the analog out-
put block’s output to obtain a null reading on the associated OBS deviation meter.
b. Place the mode switch on the OBS in the “N” (Normal) position.
4. With all four outputs nulled and switched to Normal, disconnect the output plugs
from the FBM.
5. The FBM outputs may now be switched to “Auto” (from the I/A Series process opera-
tions displays) to resume normal I/A Series control.

Installation of the peripheral devices involves two operations addressed in the following sections.
The section “Peripheral Cable Routing within Enclosures” describes how the cables are routed
within the various enclosures and how cable connections are made at the mounting structures
within the enclosures. The subsequent two sections describe installation information for each
peripheral device.
NOTE
The AW50/51 serial port B can be used for either a VT100, printer, or GCIO inter-
face. These uses are mutually exclusive and are controlled by the system configura-
tion and hence, software install. To convert from VT100, or printer operation to
GCIO, or vice versa, you must change the system configuration and reinstall the
AW50/51 software.
Refer to the information developed during the site planning phase associated with the following
processors/modules to determine the types of peripheral devices included in your system:
♦ Communications Processor Modules
♦ Application Processor Modules
♦ Workstation Processor Modules.
Peripheral Cable Routing within Enclosures

Figure 9-1 shows typical peripheral cable routing within an enclosure and illustrates how the
peripheral connector jacks are attached to the mounting structure in an enclosure for the periph-
eral modules. The following sections describe peripheral cable routing within the individual types
of enclosures.
Industrial Enclosures 16 and 32, Peripheral Cable Routing

In Industrial Enclosures 16 and 32, the peripheral cables from the processor modules are routed
from a point above or below the 2x8 mounting structure, through an opening in the left side
panel, and then down along the front of the left side panel to the bottom of the enclosure, where
they connect to corresponding cables from the peripheral devices. This is shown in Figure 9-1.
343
To route a peripheral cable through Industrial Enclosure 16 or 32, proceed as follows:

1. Open front and left-side doors.
2. Referring to the information developed during the site planning phase determine the
location, within the enclosure, of the module to which the peripheral cable is to be
connected.
3. Grasping the cable with peripheral connector jack on one end, guide the
peripheral connector jack through the appropriate opening in the left side panel.
(Connection of the peripheral connector jack to the appropriate position on the
mounting structure is covered in “AP20-Based Peripheral Device Installation Proce-
dures” on page 427.)
4. Position the cable so that it runs behind the cable guides along the front edge of the
side panel and let the end of the cable rest at the bottom of the enclosure.
5. Repeat Steps 2 through 4 for the remaining peripheral cable connections
associated with this enclosure.
NOTE
Normally there is little or no strain on the cables connected in the manner described
above. However, should any strain appear to exist, Foxboro recommends that the
cables be placed in a clamp and the clamp secured to one of the inserts at bottom of
the side panel.

Floor-Mounted Field Enclosure 8, Peripheral Cable Routing

In the floor-mounted Field Enclosure 8, the peripheral cables from the modules are routed from a
point above or below the mounting structure, through an opening in the left side panel, and then
down along the front of the left side panel to the bottom of the enclosure, where they connect to
corresponding cables from the peripheral devices. Figure 9-1 shows this cable routing.
344
To route a cable through the floor-mounted Field Enclosure 8, proceed as follows:

1. If the doors are closed, release the latches on both front and left side doors and open.
2. Referring to the information developed during the site planning phase, determine the
connected.
3. Grasping the cable with peripheral connector jack on one end, guide the
peripheral connector jack through the appropriate opening in the left side panel.
(Connection of the peripheral connector jack to the appropriate position on the
mounting structure is covered in “AP20-Based Peripheral Device Installation Proce-

4. Position the cable so that it runs behind the cable guides along the front edge of the
side panel and let the end of the cable rest at the bottom of the enclosure.
5. Repeat Steps 2 through 4 for the remaining peripheral cable connections to
printers and compatible terminals associated with this enclosure.
NOTE

Wall-Mounted Field Enclosure 8, Peripheral Cable Routing

In the wall-mounted Field Enclosure 8 (see Figure 9-2), the peripheral cables from the processor
modules are routed from a point above or below the mounting structure through an opening in
the left side panel. The cables then feed down through the wall mounting unit and down through
a user-supplied conduit, where they connect to corresponding cables from the peripheral devices.
To route a peripheral cable through the wall-mounted Field Enclosure 8:
1. If the front door is closed, release the latches on the door and open.
2. Remove the wall mounting unit access plate by removing the 12 plate retaining
screws.

1x8 Mounting Structure, Peripheral Cable Routing

The 1x8 mounting structure is normally installed in a metal enclosure. Therefore, cable routing
depends on the particular mounting configuration. For most applications, the peripheral cables
are routed toward the rear of the mounting structure, as shown in Figure 9-3.

Setting the PC’s Voltage Selector Switch

Before applying power to the processor, verify that the processor’s voltage selector switch is in the
correct position. The latest versions of the 70 Series processor have a label over the voltage selector
switch which informs you that the switch is set for 115 V by default. If you require the switch set
to 230 V, you must adjust it before applying power to the processor. Refer to Figure 9-5 to locate
the voltage selector switch.
! CAUTION
In 230 V ac systems, confirm that the voltage selector switch is fully locked in the
230 V ac position. If the switch is not locked in place, the result can destroy the power
supply. Be sure the number 230 is clearly visible on the switch, and that the switch
cannot be moved any further.

Setting Up the CMOS BIOS in a 70 Series Processor

The CMOS BIOS settings in 70 Series processors changes each time you install a card. These set-
tings must be reset to their factory-configured values after the card is installed in the processor.
Refer to the Hardware and Software Specific Instructions for 70 Series Processors document
included with your processor for instructions on resetting the CMOS BIOS.
You may need to reinstall some of the card’s drivers as well (such as the 3COM 3C900B PCI
Ethernet card’s driver). Refer to the Hardware and Software Specific Instructions for 70 Series
Processors document included with your processor, for driver installation instructions.
Installing a PC-FB Card and Connecting to a Fieldbus

This section describes the proper configuration for the PC-FB ISA card (P0960NB), available in
the upgrade kit P0914LP.
To install a PC-FB card and connect it to a Fieldbus:
♦ Configure the PC-FB card jumper settings (refer to Figure 9-8 on page 360).
♦ Install the configured PC-FB card into the correct slot in the AW70, Style A or AW70,
Style B processor (refer to Table 9-5, and Table 9-7, respectively).
♦ Connect the PC-FB card to the Fieldbus (see page 360).
NOTE
If you install a PC-FB card after installing I/A Series software or you set the wrong
IRQ during the installation, you must install the PC-FB card’s software driver. Refer
to the documentation included with the card for instructions.
Setting Jumpers on the PC-FB Card

Refer to Figure 9-8 and configure jumpers J1-J5 on the PC-FB card to match the information in

NOTE
Refer to “Setting Up the CMOS BIOS in a 70 Series Processor” on page 359 for the
locations of instructions on configuring BIOS settings.
Connecting Fieldbus Modules to the PC-FB Card

The PC-FB card must be connected directly to a local Fieldbus, or to a termination cable assem-
bly (TCA: Foxboro part number P0800DS), which links the card to a remote Fieldbus. The
70 Series processor can then communicate with the Fieldbus Modules or Fieldbus
Isolator modules.
Figure 9-9 shows the locations where the Fieldbus A and Fieldbus B cables for a local or remote
Fieldbus attach to the connectors on the PC-FB card for both the AW70, Style A and AW70,
Style B processors.
To connect the TCAs to the Fieldbus, refer to “Termination Cable Assembly (TCA) Installation”
on page 223. Follow the instructions for redundant Fieldbus cabling.
NOTE
This procedure describes a redundant Fieldbus (two Fieldbus cables). Your
system may include only one Fieldbus. In this case, follow the instructions for non-
redundant Fieldbus cabling in the chapter “Termination Cable Assembly (TCA)
Installation” on page 223.

Installing a DigiBoard
This section describes the proper configuration for the DigiBoard ISA card (P0912SF),
available in the upgrade kit P0914LM.
The DigiBoard (Foxboro part number P0912SF) is a 4-port serial card that provides
additional COM lines for external hardware. Each device connected through the DigiBoard to
the 70 Series processor uses a different I/O port, as listed in Table 9-5, and Table 9-7.
Before the DigiBoard is installed, its jumper and port switch settings must be configured.
After the DigiBoard is installed, its 4-port serial cable (Foxboro part number P0912SG) must be
connected to it to provide the physical connections for the additional COM lines.
361
NOTE
The following description is intended to assist you if service or reinstallation is
required.
To install a DigiBoard:
♦ Configure the jumper and port switch settings of the DigiBoard. Refer to “DigiBoard
Jumper and Port Switch Settings” on page 362.
♦ Install the configured DigiBoard card into the AW70, Style A or AW70, Style B:
♦ For installation instructions, refer to “Card Installation in GX-Based 70 Series
Processors” on page 354.
♦ Refer also to Table 9-5 and Table 9-7 for card slot positions.
♦ Refer to “70 Series GX-Based Processor Rear Panel Layout” on page 350 and
“Card Slot Positions in the GX-Based 70 Series Processor’s Expansion-Card Cage”
on page 357 for card slot locations.
NOTE
If I/A Series 6.0 or later is configured for a DigiBoard (Multiserial port or
Modicon Gateway) on the Commit disk, the Registry is set up during the
installation of I/A Series 6.0 or later automatically for the DigiBoard.
For processors with earlier versions of I/A Series software, refer to “Configuring
Windows NT for the DigiBoard” in the Software Installation (Windows NT Operat-
ing System) document (B0400JG) for instructions on changing the system’s
Windows NT Registry.
Systems Without a DigiBoard

If your system does not include a DigiBoard card, the number of serial devices that can attach to
your system is restricted to two ports. If you attach an alarm printer to the COM1 port
and a backup alarm printer to the COM2 port, there is no available port for modem use (for Fox-
Watch support by Foxboro Field Service).
To accommodate a modem when no DigiBoard is installed:
♦ Install an alarm printer on COM1, and attach the modem to COM2.
-or-
♦ On systems configured with a WP70, Style A, attach the modem to one of the WP70,
Style A’s COM ports.
All of the stations (the AW/WP70, Style A or AW70, Style B) are accessible over the network,
regardless of the station that houses the modem.
DigiBoard Jumper and Port Switch Settings

Set the DigiBoard’s DS1-DS5 port switches, and configure the DigiBoard jumpers. Refer
to Table 9-11 and Figure 9-10 on page 364.
362
NOTE
If you are installing a DigiBoard, you must disable COM2 in your system’s BIOS
settings. You do this by interrupting system bootup. Disabling COM2 is necessary
because COM2 and the DigiBoard use the same interrupt request, IRQ=3.
Refer to Hardware and Software Specific Instructions for 70 Series Processors
document included with your processor for instructions on resetting the CMOS
BIOS.

Configuring Sound
The sound function is already installed in the 70 Series processors in their system boards. The
output from this circuit is a line output which is not capable of directly driving a speaker. There-
fore, if this on-board circuit is to be utilized, the associated speakers must contain their own
amplification.
The sound function should be already enabled in your AW/WP70, Style A or AW70, Style B pro-
cessor. If you find that your integrated sound function has not been enabled, refer to the docu-
mentation included with your 70 Series processor.
Refer to Figure 9-5 on page 350 for the location of the line out plug. Insert the sound cord from

Installing an Ethernet Card

This section describes the proper configuration for the 3Com 3C509 Nodebus/Ethernet ISA card
(P0914PT), available in the upgrade kit P0914MC, and for the 3Com 3C900B Ethernet PCI
card (P0915YV), available in the upgrade kit P0914MD.
The available models for the AW/WP70, Style A and AW70, Style B include an Ethernet card
already installed, preconfigured to your specifications at the factory. These instructions are pro-
vided if you must reinstall a card, or add an additional Ethernet card.
The AW/WP70, Style A and AW70, Style B can connect to a DNBI, DNBT, or DNBX through
either the 3Com 3C509 ISA Ethernet card or the 3Com 3C900B PCI Ethernet card.
To facilitate communications to a corporate Ethernet, a WP70, Style A must contain both a PCI
Ethernet card as well as an ISA Ethernet card. The ISA Ethernet card manages Nodebus commu-
nications, while the PCI Ethernet card connects to the corporate Ethernet, or to an AW70 in a
stand-alone system. Refer to “Connecting WP70 to AW70 in a Stand-Alone System” on page 368
for more information on the latter configuration.
Ethernet Card Jumpers

You do not need to set any jumpers on the Ethernet card (3C509 or 3C900B). For detailed infor-
mation about the card, refer to the 3COM Adapter Guide for Etherlink III Parallel Tasking docu-
ment supplied with the card, or 3COM’s web site (www.3COM.com).
Ethernet Card Installation

The following information is provided for informational purposes only, as your system has been
preconfigured at the factory and the software has been loaded.
You require this information only if you:
♦ Add a card (or two cards) to your system, or
♦ Reinstall Windows NT.
Proceed as follows:
♦ Install the configured Ethernet card into the AW/WP70, Style A or AW70, Style B
processor:
366
♦ For installation instructions, refer to “Card Installation in GX-Based 70 Series

Processors” on page 354.
♦ Refer also to Table 9-5 and Table 9-7 for card slot positions.
NOTE
The 3Com 3C509 ISA card must be configured with the K0200QP diskette before
loading the driver for this card. Refer to the Foxboro documentation included with
your processor for instructions on using the K0200QP diskette, included in the
media kit P0915JA for the GXa Pentium II processor, or media kit P0915YR for the
GX1 Pentium II/III processor.
♦Install the ISA or PCI Ethernet card’s driver. Refer to “Installing a 3Com 3C509
Nodebus/Ethernet ISA Card” or “Installing a 3Com 3C900 Ethernet PCI Card” in
the Hardware and Software Specific Instructions for 70 Series Processors document
included with your processor.
♦ Connect the 3Com 3C509 ISA Ethernet card to Nodebus (if applicable). Refer to
“Dual Nodebus Interface Cabling” on page 483, “Dual Nodebus 10BaseT Interface
Cabling” on page 498, or “Dual Nodebus Extender Cabling” on page 508 for instruc-
tions for these connections.
Figure 9-13 explains the function of the connectors on the rear of the Ethernet cards.

Figure 9-13. 3Com 3C509 and 3Com 3C900 Card Connectors
Terminating the Ethernet Network

If you intend to attach your Ethernet card to a coaxial network (10Base2), before configuring the
card, connect the Ethernet card’s BNC connector1 to your network cable or to a 50 ohm termina-
tor.
Automatic Cable Sensing

When you power up the PC, the Ethernet card senses the type of cable attached to it. Three types
of cabling are permitted [10Base2, 10BaseT (twisted-pair), and AUI]. If there is no 10BaseT or
AUI connection, the system defaults to 10Base2. If you connect a cable to the 3C900B card or
change the existing cable, you must shut down the system and power up the system to sense the
new cable connection.
1.
One exception: if the ISA Ethernet card (3COM 3C509) connects to a DNBI via an AUI cable, the
50 ohm terminator plug should not be installed.
367
NOTE
For a Nodebus operation with a DNBI through the AUI port on the 3C509B card,
the automatic cable sensing function must be disabled, and changed to the AUI
port to ensure a reliable connection to the DNBI.
Connecting WP70 to AW70 in a Stand-Alone System

For a WP70 in a stand-alone system, install a 3Com 3C900B Ethernet PCI card in both the
WP70 and its associated AW70. Run an RG-58 (ThinNet) cable, up to 150 m (500 ft), between
the WP70 and the AW70, and connect it to the BNC ThinNet connectors on the PCI Ethernet
cards (see Figure 9-13).
If you have two WP70s in your stand-alone system, terminate the Ethernet cable at the last
WP70.
NOTE
If you use a DNBI/DNBT/DNBX connection to the I/A Series Nodebus, you can-
not use this direct Ethernet WP70 to AW70 connection.
Refer to Figure 9-14 for an illustration of a WP70 connected to an AW70 with PCI Ethernet
cards.

Dual Workstation Display Cabling

The dual workstation display configuration adds a second display to a WP51 or AW51, as
described in “Dual Workstation Displays” on page 61. Cabling for the primary display
(21-inch workstation display) is shown in Figure 9-51 through Figure 9-65. Figure 9-66 and
Figure 9-67 on page 416 show the cable connection for the optional second 17-inch/21-inch
workstation display.
NOTE
When a second color graphics SBus, UPA, or PCI card is added to an operational
AP51, WP51, or AW51 station, the station must be rebooted with the boot -r com-
mand. Refer to the System Operations Guide (B0193CR) for information on
rebooting.
If the second workstation display has a touchscreen and/or annunciator or annunciator/numeric

keyboard(s), a GCIO interface module must be added. Cabling for the optional GCIO interface
module and associated keyboards is described in “GCIO Interface Module Cabling for 50 Series
Processors” on page 418, and “Touchscreen Cabling, WP50/51, AW50/51, WP70, or AW70
Application” on page 422.

The video card (P0971WF) for the second head in a AW51D (P-code P75, styles A through D)
and WP51D (P-code P76, styles A through D) provides both composite sync and separate hori-
zontal and vertical sync signals. This card interfaces with all Foxboro monitors and can be wired
as per the upper drawing of Figure 9-69.
The video card (P0972JR) for the second head in a AW51D (P-code P75, style E) and WP51D
(P-code P76, style E) generates only separate horizontal and vertical sync signals. To properly
interface to monitors which use composite sync (that is, monitors with four conductor cables), a
composite sync video adapter (P0971DZ) needs to be connected between the P0972JR video
card and the P0971WG adapter as shown in the lower section of Figure 9-69.
Monitors and monitor cables which use 15-pin VGA connectors (that is, use separate syncs) can
connect directly to either the P0971WF or P0972JR video card.

Graphic Controller Input Output (GCIO) Interface for WP30

There are two main variations of the GCIO interface used in WP30 applications: the desktop,
and Modular Industrial Workstation (MIW) internally mounted versions. The display mounts on
top of the desktop version. Figure 9-91 illustrates the desktop version. The desktop GCIO can
also be mounted in a different shroud to mount on top of a bay. The MIW internally mounted
version (not shown) has the same connectors and switches, except for the ac power socket and
power on/off switch.
A GCIO is configured with or without the 9-pin touchscreen connector, depending on whether
or not the display has a touchscreen.

INTERSPEC Integrator 30 and Translator

The INTERSPEC Integrator and Translator modules serve as a communication interface between
an I/A Series system and the following types of INTERSPEC devices:
♦ Analog Input Module (AIM)
♦ Controller Communication Module (CCM)
♦ Universal Input/Output Module (UIO)
♦ Universal Field Multiplexer (UFM)
Installation of the INTERSPEC Integrator and Translator consists of making jumper settings,
cable connections, and installing the module.
The INTERSPEC Integrator 30 (P0960HA) is a single-width module installed inside an
I/A Series mounting structure. The module electrically connects to the Nodebus.
The INTERSPEC Integrator Translator (P0970UT) occupies two slots in an I/A Series mounting
structure, receiving power and signal cable connections from the mounting structure, but with no
connection to the Nodebus.
NOTE
The INTERSPEC Integrator 30 is labeled Communication Processor 30, P/N
P0960HA, on its data label. The module assumes its intended function as INTER-
SPEC Integrator 30 when the appropriate module identifier (letterbug set) is
inserted and the system initializes the module.
INTERSPEC Integrator Translator Flunk Jumper

The INTERSPEC Integrator and Translator contains a jumper on the inside of its front cover.
This jumper is the flunk jumper, and it can be set to either flunk or unflunk if there is a watchdog
timeout (WDT) condition. (A flunk activates the computer fail signal to all devices on the
INTERSPEC link.) The Foxboro Company ships the translator with the jumper set to unflunk.
To access, inspect, or change the flunk jumper, remove the INTERSPEC Integrator and Transla-
tor front cover. The cover is retained by four tabs located as shown in Figure 10-1.
Arrows indicate tab locations.

Press tabs and pull cover
forward and off the module.

To set the flunk jumper:

1. Refer to Figure 10-2 to locate the jumper, and move the jumper to the horizontal pins
to select unflunk, or jumper the vertical pins to select the flunk position in the event
of a WDT timeout.
2. Replace the translator front cover by aligning the four tabs with the associated holes
and pressing the cover back in place.

Cabling for the I/A Series Integrator 30 for Modicon

Programmable Controllers
The Integrator 30 for Modicon Programmable Controllers (programmable controllers) is a station
on an I/A Series network that connects Modicon programmable controllers to the I/A Series net-
work via a standard RS-232-C data link. (Refer to the enclosure information developed during
the site planning phase to determine whether your installation uses this type of integrator.)
NOTE
On its data label, the integrator is labeled Communication Processor 30,
P/N P0960HA. The module assumes its intended function (as Integrator 30 for
Modicon programmable controllers) when you insert the appropriate module iden-
tifier (letterbug set), and the system software initializes the module.
There are two configurations of the Integrator 30; non-fault-tolerant (Figure 10-6), and fault-tol-
erant (Figure 10-7). Each of these configurations can have either a redundant or non-redundant
cabling scheme.
Depending on the configuration, there is a single P0500JX cable from the integrator to a
P0970VB communication cable signal configuration selector, and then one of several types of
cable that connects the P0970VB configuration selector to a communications option such as a
modem or programmable controller. The type of cable used depends on the communication
option to which the cable connects. The configurations with redundant cabling have two sets of
this cabling and connectors.
454
The P0970VB configuration selector contains 32 switches. The switch settings depend on the
type of cable connected which depends on the communication option to be connected. Refer to
the description “P0970VB Configuration Selector Switch Settings and Cable Conversion Tables”
on page 464 for detailed information.

Connecting the Cabling for Integrator 30 for Modicon

Programmable Controllers
To connect communication devices and cabling to the Integrator 30 for Modicon programmable
controllers:
1. Turn off program controller equipment power.
2. Determine which communication option is to be connected and connect the appro-
priate cable. (Figure 10-7 through Figure 10-10 show the appropriate cable for each
communication option.)
3. Connect the signal cable shield ground lug at the end of the cable associated with the
communication option (mode, programmable controller, and so forth) to a suitable
earthing point.
4. Route the other end of the cable to the bottom of the I/A Series enclosure.

cable to the D connector. (One end of the P0970VB configuration selector has a sin-
gle cable D connector; the other end has two 26-pin connectors. The correct connec-
tor for the cable is the end with the single D connector.) To install the switch, refer to
the procedure “Installing the P0970VB Configuration Selector Switch” on page 469.
7. Connect one end of the P0500JX cable to either of the two 26-pin connectors. (One
end of the P0970VB configuration selector has a single D connector; the other end
has two 26-pin connectors. Both 26-pin connectors are needed for a fault-tolerant
configuration.)
457
NOTE
For redundant fault-tolerant configuration with PLC that does not supply a DTR
signal, replace P0500JX with cable P0912GV (see Figure 10-12). Additionally, you
need a cable between the P0970VB switch and the device. The type of cable used
depends on the module to which the cable connects. The configurations with
redundant cabling have two sets of this cabling and connectors.
8. Route the P0500JX cable to the correct Modicon port position as shown in the appro-
priate cabling diagram, for either the non-fault-tolerant (Figure 10-11) or fault-toler-
ant (Figure 10-12) configurations.
9. Engage the peripheral connector plug (on the Modicon Integrator module) by insert-
ing the hex driver tool into the peripheral connector engagement actuator slot (on the
front of the module) and turning 1/2-turn clockwise. The cabling installation is com-
plete.

Cabling for the I/A Series Integrator 30 for

Allen-Bradley Programmable Logic Controllers
The I/A Series Integrator 30 for Allen-Bradley Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) is a sta-
tion on the I/A Series network which provides for connection of the Allen-Bradley Data Highway
(and its associated Programmable Logic Controllers) via a standard RS-432-C data link. (Refer to
the enclosure information developed during the site planning phase to determine whether your
installation uses an Integrator 30 for Allen-Bradley PLCs.)
NOTE
The I/A Series Integrator 30 for Allen-Bradley Programmable Logic Controllers is
labeled Communication Processor 30, P/N P0960HA on its data label. The module
assumes its intended function (as Integrator 30 for Allen-Bradley PLCs) when you
insert the appropriate module identifier (letterbug set), and the system software ini-
tializes the module.
There are two configurations of the Integrator 30; non-fault-tolerant, and fault-tolerant. Each of
these configurations can have either a redundant or non-redundant cabling scheme.
459
The following figures are overview illustrations of the Integrator 30 for Allen-Bradley PLCs for
both non-fault-tolerant cabling configurations with redundant and non-redundant cabling
(Figure 10-13 and Figure 10-14), and then similar figures for a fault-tolerant configuration
(Figure 10-15 and Figure 10-16).
For all cable configurations except the redundant, fault-tolerant 3-wire configuration, cable
replacements require a type P0500JX cable connected between the integrators for Modbus devices
and a type P0970VB communication cable signal configuration selector (switch). For redundant
fault-tolerant configuration with PLC that does not supply a DTR signal, replace P0500JX with
cable P0912GV. Additionally, you need a cable between the P0970VB switch and the device. The
type of cable used depends on the module to which the cable connects. The configurations with
redundant cabling have two sets of this cabling and connectors.
The P0970VB configuration selector contains 32 switches. The switch settings depend on the
type of cable connected which depends on the communication option to be connected. Refer to
the description “P0970VB Configuration Selector Switch Settings and Cable Conversion Tables”
on page 464 for detailed information.

NOTE
When installing Allen-Bradley Data Highways, it is imperative to adhere to the
Allen-Bradley installation guidelines. Failure to do so may cause errors when com-
municating to a PLC from an integrator. In particular, Allen-Bradley Data Highway
2 with multiple 1779-KFL communication modules requires adherence to specific
Data Highway cabling practices for error-free operation.
To connect a communication module and cabling to the Integrator 30 for Allen-Bradley PLCs,
refer to the appropriate figure for non-fault-tolerant configurations, with or without redundant
cabling (Figure 10-17), or fault-tolerant configurations, with or without redundant cabling
(Figure 10-18), and perform the following steps:
1. Turn off Allen-Bradley equipment power.
2. Determine which communication module is to be connected (see Table 10-3 and
Table 10-4) and connect the appropriate cable to the module. (Note that the commu-
nication cables are available in two lengths, 20 ft and 40 ft. For reliable communica-
tion, however, the shorter (20 ft) cable should be used in configurations using a
19.2 kbaud transmission rate.)
3. Connect the signal cable shield ground lug at the end of the cable associated with the
communication module to a suitable earthing point.
4. Route the other end of the cable to the bottom of the I/A Series enclosure.

462
single cable D connector; the other end has two 26-pin connectors. The correct con-
nector for the cable is the end with the single D connector.) To install the switch, refer
to the procedure “Installing the P0970VB Configuration Selector Switch” on
page 469.
configuration.)
8. Route the P0500JX cable(s) through the bottom of the enclosure as described in
“Peripheral Cable Routing within Enclosures” on page 343 to the correct integrator
position as shown in the Figure 10-17 (non-fault-tolerant) or Figure 10-18 (fault-tol-
erant) cabling diagram.
9. Engage the peripheral connector plug on the integrator by inserting the hex driver
tool into the peripheral connector engagement actuator slot (on the front of the mod-
ule) and turning 1/2-turn clockwise. The cabling installation is complete.

NOTE: A second P0500JX cable to the switch is used for a fault-tolerant configuration.
Figure 10-19. P0970VB Cable Configuration Overview
The P0970VB switch consists of 32 switches (4 banks of 8 SPST switches) that you must config-
ure before communication between the communication processor and its option can begin. The
switch settings depend on the communication option and the cable between the switch and the
option.
464
The P0970VB switch mounts on an enclosure DIN rail with the cables secured to strain relief
brackets that also secure the switch to the DIN rail.
The following paragraphs describe how to configure and install the P0970VB switch.
P0970VB Configuration Selector Switch Settings

Figure 10-20 shows the 32 switches in four groups of 8 switches (S1 - S4). The designator C indi-
cates that the switch is closed, or in the down position (see the C position for a rocker switch in
the right side view in Figure 10-20).

Replacement Cabling
For each specific cable option available to link a communication processor or gateway to the
devices listed in the first column (Option) of Table 10-3 through Table 10-7, you require the
cable number listed in the fourth column (New Cable). The cables listed in the third column of
Table 10-3 through Table 10-7 (Old Cable), are no longer available. For all cable configurations
except the redundant, fault-tolerant 3-wire configuration, cable replacements require a type
P0500JX cable connected between the integrators for Modbus device and a type P0970VB com-
munication cable signal configuration selector (switch). For redundant fault-tolerant configura-
tion with PLC that does not supply a DTR signal, replace P0500JX with cable P0912GV.
Additionally, you need a cable between the P0970VB switch and the device.

The P0970VB switch is normally mounted on a DIN rail in the enclosure. The back of the switch
fits to the DIN rail. Two strain relief brackets secure the assembly to the rail and also provide tie
points for the cables.
1. Connect the P0500JX cable(s) to the communication processor or gateway. If this is a
fault-tolerant configuration, connect two cables to the communication processor
(processor module positions A and B).
2. Route the P0500JX cable(s) to the DIN rail where you want to install the P0970VB
switch.
3. Refer to Table 10-3 on page 466 to identify the cable designed for your communica-
tion option; connect this cable to the option.
4. Route the other end of the communication cable from the option, to and through the
bottom of the enclosure to where you want to locate the P0970VB switch.
5. Locate the P0970VB switch assembly, and using tweezers, gently remove the plastic
covers on the switches and set them aside.
6. Set the switches for your communication option/cable as described previously (see
Figure 10-20 and Table 10-4).
7. Place the plastic covers back on the switches. Use care not to disturb the switch set-
tings during the rest of this procedure.
8. Locate the two DIN rail mounting and cable strain relief brackets, and install them on
the DIN rail. The end of each bracket (with the holes for the wire tie) should face
toward the middle of the enclosure.
9. Locate the P0970VB switch and orient it with the 26-pin sockets at the top if you are
installing the P0970VB switch on a DIN rail in the left side of the enclosure, or with
the D connector socket at the top if you are installing the switch in the right side of
the enclosure.

Device Integrator 30 Cabling

The Device Integrator 30 is a station on the I/A Series network that allows you to connect
I/A Series equipment with various non I/A Series devices for collecting and storing data from
those devices.
NOTE
The Device Integrator 30 is labeled Communication Processor 30, P/N P0902DZ
or P0911AC on its data label. The module assumes its intended function when you
Up to four asynchronous RS-232-C compatible devices can be interfaced via the Device Integra-
tor 30. Typical devices fall into three categories: receive-only devices (gas turbines, data collectors,
sequence of events monitors), scanned devices (gas analyzers), and read/write devices (paper
machine gauges, programmable logic controllers).
Associated with the Device Integrator 30 are a P0500JX cable and P0970VB cable configuration
selector switch (Figure 10-20) for connecting to a compatible RS-232-C cable associated with the
foreign device. Figure 10-27 and Figure 10-28 show the cabling for the non-fault-tolerant and
fault-tolerant configurations, respectively.

By setting a specific configuration of P0970VB DIP switches (Figure 10-20), you can configure
one of a variety of foreign devices with little or no jumpering within the 25-pin connector hoods.
In Table 10-8, the first column lists which switches to set closed to obtain the RS-232 cable pin
assignments shown in the rest of the table. Note that all other P0970VB switches are to remain
open.

SW2-8 7 Common Ground ------
SW3-6 8 Data Carrier Detect (DCD) Integrator
SW4-1 20 Data Terminal Ready (DTR) Device
The RS-232 cable is user supplied and must have a 25-pin, 90° female connector to attach to the
P0970VB configuration selector.
If the foreign device does not provide Clear to Send (CTS), the P0970VB can be configured to
jumper CTS with Request to Send (RTS). To accomplish this, set SW1-7 to closed, and switches
SW3-2 and SW3-3 to open.
If the foreign device does not provide Carrier Detect (DCD), then DTR and DCD can be jum-
pered together. To monitor the health of the cable, the jumper should be at the device end of the
473
RS-232 cable. If this can not be easily done, then alternately, configure the P0970VB configura-
tion selector switch to jumper DTR to DCD by setting switches SW1-4 and SW4-1 to closed.
NOTE
The Foxboro Company supplies the document Protocol Reference Guide (applica-
tion-specific document). Refer to Chapter 8 of that guide for the proper device-spe-
cific signal assignments and switch settings.
To perform the Device Integrator 30 cabling, refer to either Figure 10-27 (non-fault-tolerant
cabling), or Figure 10-28 (fault-tolerant cabling), and perform the following steps:
1. Turn off Device Integrator 30 and power to associated foreign devices.
2. Determine the foreign device to be connected and connect the user-supplied RS-232
cable to the foreign device.
3. Route the other end of the RS-232 cable to the bottom of the I/A Series enclosure.

user-supplied RS-232 cable to the D connector. (One end of the P0970VB configura-
tion selector has a single cable D connector; the other end has two 26-pin connectors.
The correct connector for the cable is the end with the single D connector.) To install
the P0970VB connector, refer to the procedure “Installing the P0970VB Configura-
tion Selector Switch” on page 469.
configuration.)
7. Route the P0500JX cable(s) through the bottom of the enclosure, as described in the
section on “Peripheral Cable Routing within Enclosures” on page 343. Route the
cable to the correct integrator position as shown in Figure 10-27 (for a non-fault-
tolerant configuration) or Figure 10-28 (for a fault-tolerant configuration).
8. Engage the peripheral connector plug on the integrator by inserting the hex driver
tool into the peripheral connector engagement actuator slot (on the front of the mod-
ule) and turning 1/2-turn clockwise. The cabling installation is complete.
SPECTRUM Slave Gateway Cabling

The SPECTRUM Slave Gateway (SSG), Foxboro part number P0400VS, is a double-width pro-
cessor module that occupies two adjacent slots in a mounting structure. (A fault-tolerant version
of the SSG consists of four processor modules and occupies four adjacent slots.) Functionally, the
SSG is an intelligent interface that allows communication between I/A Series system control pro-
cessors and a SPECTRUM system host. This section provides a procedure for making connec-
tions between the SSG and a SPECTRUM system. Refer to the enclosure information developed
during the site planning phase to determine whether your installation uses an SSG.
Two signal cable assemblies connect the SSG to a Linkport in the SPECTRUM system. One of
the cable assemblies, part number P0800EA, contains two peripheral connector jacks (joined
474
together) at one end, and a single connector at the other end. The other cable assembly, part num-
ber 3LK2------, is a standard FOXNET station cable with a single connector at each end. These
cables join together to form a continuous cable run from the SSG to the Linkport in the SPEC-
TRUM system.
NOTE
The module identifier (letterbug set) is configured differently for the SSG than for
other modules. Refer to “Module Identifier (Letterbug) Installation” on page 145
for specific instructions.
To install the signal cables between the SSG and a SPECTRUM Linkport, perform the following
steps as shown in Figure 10-29.
1. Turn off equipment power.
2. Locate cable assembly P0800EA and route the cable through the enclosure as
described in the section on “Peripheral Cable Routing within Enclosures” on
page 343.
3. Locate cable 3LK2---- and connect one end (male) to the designated receptacle on the
Linkport selected for use. (Refer to the sales order information for the
SPECTRUM system to determine which Linkport receptacle is to be used.)
4. Route the other end of cable 3LK2---- to the bottom of the I/A Series enclosure, and
connect it to the connector on cable assembly P0800EA.
5. If you are installing a fault-tolerant SSG, repeat Steps 1 through 4 for the second SSG,
making sure the connection to the associated Linkport goes to the same connector
position that was used for the first Linkport. For example, if the first SSG connects to
J5 of the associated Linkport, then the other SSG must connect to J5 of its associated
Linkport.
6. Engage the peripheral connector plugs (on the SSG module) by inserting the hex
driver tool into the peripheral connector engagement actuator slots (on the front of
the module) and turning 1/2-turn clockwise.

Cabling between the SPECTRUM Interface Processor(s) and the SPECTRUM Database Proces-
sor involves the following equipment:
♦ SPECTRUM Interface Processor modules (up to four) mounted in an I/A Series
enclosure or 1x8 mounting structure
♦ SPECTRUM Interface Processor interface cable P0912HA (one for each SIP).
NOTE
A single cable P0912HA replaces the existing two cables P0800AZ and P0800LW.
♦ Jacks J206, J209, J212, and J215 on the SPECTRUM Database Processor I/O con-
nector panel. (Refer to the SPECTRUM Database Processor Installation
document (MI 826-015) for the location of the I/O connector panel.)
When making the cable connections between the SPECTRUM Interface Processors and the I/O
connector panel, the left-most jack(s) must be used in all cases. For example, if one SPECTRUM
Interface Processor is used, it must be connected to jack J206; if two SPECTRUM Interface Pro-
cessors are used, they must be connected to jacks J206 and J209, and so forth. (When multiple
SPECTRUM Interface Processors are used, which SPECTRUM Interface Processor connects to
which jack is unimportant, provided that the left-most jacks are used in all cases.)
To make the cable connections, refer to Figure 10-31 and perform the following steps:
2. Locate the SPECTRUM Interface Processor interface cable P0912HA, and route the
cable through the enclosure as described in the section on “Peripheral Cable Routing
within Enclosures” on page 343.

4. Connect the opposite end of cable P0912HA to the appropriate jack (J206 for the
first SPECTRUM Interface Processor) on the SPECTRUM Database Processor I/O
connector panel.
5. Engage the peripheral connector plug on the SPECTRUM Interface Processor by
inserting the hex driver tool into the peripheral connector engagement actuator slot

7. Engage the peripheral connector plug on the gateway module by inserting the hex
module) and turning 1/2-turn clockwise.
NOTE
Cable adapter(s) P0911AT is used only in conjunction with INI module part
number P0911AC (not with P0902DZ). If the INI module is part numbered
P0902DZ, skip Steps 8 through 11.
8. If this installation is for a DTE device, install a P0911AT adapter between the
P0970VB switch and the P0970WY cable.
9. Locate cable adapter kit(s) P0911AT (used with INI module part number P0911AC
only). The cable adapter kits are packaged with other loose parts in the enclosure.
Referring to Figure 10-35 on page 482 and Figure 10-36 on page 482, set the adapter
jumper for the desired configuration, as follows:
a. If two INIs (one local and one remote) are communicating directly with each
other, the recommended jumper settings for both adapters is INT. (Other settings
may be used per specific communication requirements.)
b. For all other configurations, in either adapter (on the INI end or on the host com-
puter end):
Set the jumper to INT if the configuration requires that the associated INI or host
computer generate its own transmit clock signal.
Set the jumper to RCV if the configuration requires that the transmit clock signal
for the associated INI or host computer be derived from the incoming receive
clock signal.
Set the jumper to MOD if the configuration requires that the transmit clock sig-
nal for the associated INI or host computer be derived from the incoming modem
transmit clock signal.
10. Referring to Figure 10-35 on page 482, assemble the adapter(s) by aligning the top
and bottom covers over the connector assembly, pressing firmly together, and attach-
ing the retaining screws and brackets.
11. Attach an adapter(s) to each end of cable P0970WY, or one adapter to cable
P0970WX at the device end of the cable, whichever is used in the configuration.
12. Connect one end of cable P0970WY or P0970WX (with adapter if applicable) to the
modem, non I/A Series (host) computer.
13. Connect the other end of the P0970WY or P0970WX cable (with adapter if applica-
ble) to the D connector on the P0970VB switch. (One end of the P0970VB configu-

was powered up before the DNBI/DNBT/DNBX cables were installed and the
nodebus interface was powered up.
2. If the letterbug in a DNBI is changed after the associated 50 Series or 70 Series
processor is booted, both the DNBI and processor must be rebooted for the new let-
terbug to take effect.
3. The letterbug associated with the DNBI module must be the same as the
letterbug for the host processor.
4. A Model 51, Style E processor must have an MII-to-AUI Converter and SQE
Eliminator to connect to the DNBI. Refer to “Converter Installation for DNBI
(Model 51, Style E Processors Only)” below. It does not require these converters
when connecting to a DNBT (see “Dual Nodebus 10BaseT Interface Cabling” on
page 498).
5. The Model 51, Style D processor can only be connected to a DNBT or DNBX
module. See below.
The Dual Nodebus Interface can be cabled in either of two configurations:

♦ Local – where the DNBI and the processor share the same enclosure
♦ Medium-Distance – where the DNBI and the processor are separated by a distance of
greater than 2 m (6 ft).
The following subsections describe these cabling configurations.
Converter Installation for DNBI (Model 51, Style E Processors

Only)
The Model 51, Style E processors do not have a connector for directly interfacing with network
AUI cables. If you are connecting the Model 51, Style E processor to a DNBI, you must attach
the following equipment to its MII (Media Independent Interface) connector:
♦ An MII-to-AUI Converter (Foxboro part number P0971TR) to the processor’s MII
Connector, and
♦ An SQE Eliminator (Foxboro part number P0940KS) to the MII-to-AUI
Converter’s AUI connector.
The MII-to-AUI Converter enables AUI communications to interface through the MII
connector. The SQE Eliminator must be connected to the other end of this converter to screen
out AUI line noise for the DNBI.
484
NOTE
The following notes apply to the converter installation:
1. The Model 51, Style E processors connect to a DNBI through the MII
connector on the motherboard, not from the MII connector on the twisted-pair
10/100 Mbps Ethernet Interface card with MII Connector. Refer to Figure 10-37
for a diagram of the MII connector on the motherboard.
2. The latches on the MII-to-AUI converter and SQE Eliminator are not fully
secure. Two cable ties in excess of 27 inches (690 mm) are required to secure this
cable.
3. The SQE Eliminator should only be connected to the MII-to-AUI Converter’s
AUI port.
4. The Model 51, Style E processors do not require these converters when connect-
ing to a DNBT (see “Dual Nodebus 10BaseT Interface Cabling” on page 498).
To connect the MII-to-AUI Converter, SQE Eliminator, and network AUI cable to the Model 51,
Style E processor, proceed as follows:
1. Remove the MII-to-AUI Converter from its package.
2. Insert the converter’s 40-pin connector into the MII connector on the processor’s
motherboard, as shown in Figure 10-37.

Dual Nodebus 10BaseT Interface Cabling

The Dual Nodebus 10BaseT Interface (DNBT), Foxboro part number P0971WV, is a station on
the I/A Series network providing for point-to-point 10BaseT connection of the following proces-
sors to the Nodebus:
♦ 50 Series Model 51, Style D and E Application Processors
♦ 50 Series Model 51, Style D and E, and 70 Series Workstation Processors
♦ 50 Series Model 51, Style D and E, and 70 Series Application Workstations
♦ Server 70 Processors.
NOTE
The following notes apply to the DNBT connections:
1. For a 50 Series or 70 Series processor to boot, all DNBTs must have been already
installed and powered. The processor cannot come on-line if it was powered up
before the DNBT cables were installed and the DBNT was powered up.
2. If the letterbug in a DNBT is changed after the associated 50 Series or 70 Series
processor is booted, both the DNBT and processor must be rebooted for the new
letterbug to take effect.
3. The letterbug associated with the DNBT module must be the same as the letter-
bug for the host processor.
4. Due to the lack of a dedicated AUI-compatible port, the Model 51, Style D
processor must connect to the nodebus via the 10BaseT Interface port.
The Dual Nodebus 10BaseT Interface can be cabled in either of two configurations:
♦ Local – where the DNBT and the processor share the same enclosure
♦ Medium-Distance – where the DNBT and the processor are separated by a distance of
greater than 2 m (6 ft).
The following subsections describe these cabling configurations.
Local Dual Nodebus 10BaseT Interface Cabling

Local Dual Nodebus 10BaseT interface cabling involves making connections between processors
and DNBTs within 1.9 m (6 ft) of each other. Separate instructions are provided for 50 Series and
70 Series cabling.

Dual Nodebus Extender Cabling

NOTE
The following notes apply to the DNBX connections:
1. The DNBX extender is used instead of a DNBI in installations where the Node-
bus must be longer than 91 m (300 ft). For DNBX installations, an RS-423 cable is
made on-site as described in the procedure in “50 Series DNBX Cabling” on
page 510.
2. If the letterbug in a DNBX is changed after the associated 50 Series or 70 Series
processor is booted, both the DNBX and processor must be rebooted for the new
letterbug to take effect.
3. The letterbug associated with the DNBX module should be the same as the let-
terbug for the host processor.
4. A Model 51, Style E processor must have an MII-to-AUI Converter to connect to
the DNBX. Refer to “Converter Installation for DNBX (Model 51, Style E Proces-
sors Only)” below.
The Dual Nodebus Extender (DNBX), Foxboro part number P0970EJ, is a station on the
I/A Series network providing for remote connection of the following processors to the Nodebus:
♦ 50 Series Application Processor 50/51
♦ 50 Series, or 70 Series Workstation Processor
♦ 50 Series, or 70 Series Application Workstation
♦ Server 70 Processor.
In a separate application, this interface extender is also used to interface the Allen-Bradley
station (see “DNBX to Allen-Bradley Station Cabling” on page 571). Separate instructions are
provided for 50 Series and 70 Series cabling.
Converter Installation for DNBX (Model 51, Style E Processors

Only)
The Model 51, Style E processors do not have a connector for directly interfacing with network
AUI cables. If you are connecting a Model 51, Style E processor to a DNBX, you must attach the
MII-to-AUI converter (Foxboro part number P0971TR) to the MII (Media Independent Inter-
face) connector on the processor.
NOTE
The following notes apply to the converter installation:
1. The Model 51, Style E processors connect to a DNBX through the MII Connec-
tor on the motherboard, not from the MII Connector on the Twisted-Pair 10/100
Mbps Ethernet Interface PCI card with MII Connector. Refer to Figure 10-37 for a
diagram of the MII Connector on the motherboard.
2. The latch on the MII-to-AUI converter is not fully secure. Two cable ties in
excess of 12 inches (300 mm) are required to secure this cable. They are included
with the Model 51, Style E processor.
508
To connect the MII-to-AUI converter and network AUI cable to the Model 51, Style E
processor, proceed as follows:
1. Remove the MII-to-AUI converter from its package.
2. Insert the converter’s 40-pin connector into the MII connector on the processor’s
motherboard, as shown in Figure 10-37.
3. Rotate the screws on the 40-pin connector clockwise, until they securely fasten the
40-pin connector to the MII connector.
4. Push the latch (located over the AUI connector) to the right, and insert the
network AUI cable into the AUI connector on the MII-to-AUI converter, as shown in
Figure 10-38.

Second Ethernet Port (for 50 Series Products)

The optional second Ethernet port provides for connection between an AP50/51, WP50/51, or
AW50/51-based I/A Series system and an Ethernet network hosted by a separate (remote) com-
puter. It can be implemented for all 50 Series processors in either of two configurations:
♦ ThinNet (BNC) or AUI Cable Connection – Uses Ethernet SBus card
(Model 51, Style D or E processors use Twisted-Pair 10/100 Mbps Ethernet Interface
PCI card with MII Connector (Kit P0971UF)).
♦ Twisted-Pair Cable Connection – Uses Fast SCSI/Buffered Ethernet SBus card or the
Fast SCSI Plus Twisted-Pair 10/100 Mbps Ethernet card
(Model 51, Style D or E processors use either Twisted-Pair 10/100 Mbps Ethernet
Interface PCI card with MII Connector (Kit P0971UE) or Twisted-Pair
10/100 Mbps Ethernet Interface plus Ultra-Wide SCSI PCI card (Kit P0971UC)).
The Ethernet card may be installed in any of the Model 51, Style A, B/B1, or C processor’s
unused SBus slots (AW51B1 and WP51B1 have only one SBus slot). However, the fast
525
SCSI/Buffered Ethernet SBus card is position sensitive, requiring that it be installed in a particu-
lar SBus slot. Refer to “SBus Card Slot Usage” on page 387 for specific information on how the
SBus card slots are used.
The second Ethernet port can be implemented in the Model 51, Style D and E processor, with the
following PCI Ethernet cards and their associated peripherals:
♦ MII-to-AUI Converter (and SQE Eliminator) to AUI Cable Connection – Uses
Twisted-Pair 10/100 Mbps Ethernet Interface PCI card with MII Connector (upgrade
kit P0971UF)
♦ Twisted-Pair Cable Connection – Uses Twisted-Pair 10/100 Mbps Ethernet Interface
plus Ultra-Wide SCSI PCI card (upgrade kit P0971UC) or Twisted-Pair 10/100
Mbps Ethernet Interface PCI card with MII Connector (upgrade kit P0971UE).
These cards can be installed in any of the Model 51, Style D processor’s PCI card slots.
The Twisted-Pair 10/100 Mbps Ethernet Interface PCI card may be installed in any of the Model
51, Style E processor’s unused regular PCI slots (PCI slots 2, 3, or 4). However, the Twisted-Pair
10/100 Mbps Ethernet Interface plus Ultra-Wide SCSI PCI card must be installed in PCI slot 4 if
this card is used for disk mirroring. Refer to “AP51E, WP51E and AW51E PCI Card Slot Usage”
on page 392 for specific information on how the PCI card slots are used.
Figure 10-76 illustrates the Ethernet cable connections at the processor end for SBus cards.
Figure 10-80 and Figure 10-81 show the equivalent Ethernet cable connections for the PCI cards.
(Connections at the opposite end depend on the particular Ethernet configuration in question.)
To make the cable connections to the optional second Ethernet port:
1. Set the connector selection switches on the Ethernet card (not applicable to fast
SCSI/Buffered Ethernet card, the fast SCSI Plus Twisted-Pair 10/100 Mbps Ethernet
card, or either of the PCI cards) as indicated in Figure 10-76.
2. Connect the cable to the appropriate SBus or PCI card connector.
NOTE
The following notes apply to the second Ethernet port installation:
1. When a second Ethernet SBus or PCI card or second SCSI + Ethernet SBus or
PCI card is added to an operational AP51, WP51, or AW51 station, the station
must be rebooted with the boot -r command. Refer to the System Operations Guide
(B0193CR) for information on rebooting.
2. When the Ethernet SBus or PCI card is employed, certain files must be devel-
oped. If the operating system is already installed, the /etc/hostname.le<n> file must
be created for the SBus card, and the /etc/hostname.hme<n> file must be created for
the PCI cards.
Refer to the System Administration Guide for 50 Series (Solaris 2.X) (B0193ND) doc-
ument for a complete description of this file for processors utilizing SBus cards.
Refer to Hardware Kit Installation Procedures for 50 Series Model 51, Style D
Processors (B0400PT) for a complete description of hardware and software installa-
tion for this processor’s PCI cards.
Refer to Hardware Kit Installation Procedures for 50 Series Model 51, Style E
Processors (B0400PJ) for a complete description of hardware and software installa-
tion for this processor’s PCI cards.

Token Ring Interface

A token ring network is a star-wired Local Area Network (LAN) that interconnects various
devices such as processors into a logical ring configuration. The Token Ring Interface card, con-
forming to the IEEE 802.5-1988 standard, provides an interface between the token ring network
and the I/A Series system. The Token Ring Interface card may be configured to run at speeds of
either 4 Mbps or 16 Mbps.
Two versions of the Token Ring Interface card are available:
♦ an SBus card for installation in a Model 51, Style A, B/B1, or C processor,
♦ a PCI card for installation in a Model 51, Style D or E processor.
As illustrated in Figure 10-90, a jumper is used to select between the 4 Mbps and the 16 Mbps
data rate in the SBus Token Ring Interface card. The jumper, when installed, selects the 16 Mbps
rate. The Token Ring Interface card is shipped from the factory with the jumper installed (16
Mbps rate selected).
The PCI Token Ring Interface does not have this jumper, as shown in Figure 10-91. This card is
pre-set for all configurations and does not require additional modifications.
To install the Token Ring Interface, proceed as follows:
1. For SBus Token Ring Interface cards, determine the speed at which the token ring
network is operating. If the network is operating at 16 Mbps, leave jumper installed; if
it is operating at 4 Mbps, remove the jumper.
For PCI Token Ring Interface cards, skip to Step 2.

“SBus Card Slot Usage” on page 387 for specific information on how the SBus card
slots are used, or “PCI Card and Video Card Slot Usage” on page 390 for
specific information on how the PCI card slots are used.)
3. Connect the token ring cable (part of the token ring network) to the interface
connector on the Token Ring Interface card.
NOTE
In conjunction with the installation of the Token Ring Interface card, there is a cor-
responding software package that must be installed. For software installation
instructions, refer to:

Carrierband LAN Interface Cabling

NOTE
The following notes apply to the Carrierband LAN Interface cabling.
1. This subsection describes how to make cable connections between the coaxial
Carrierband LAN Interface module and the coaxial drop cables. For information on
how to install the Carrierband LAN network (trunk cable, passive taps, and so
forth), refer to Network Cable Systems Installation (B0193UW) and Maintenance
(B0193UX). Refer also to the Network Cable Systems Installation and Maintenance
documents for information on installing coaxial-to-fiber converters.
2. This subsection does not describe how to set up a fiber optic Carrierband LAN
Interface module and fiber optic cabling. Refer to the I/A Series Network Cable
Systems Installation and Maintenance documents (B0193UW and B0193UX) for
information on setting up a fiber optic LAN.
The Carrierband LAN Interface module (CLI), Foxboro part number P0900NT, connects to the

Components used in the coaxial LAN cabling schemes include the following:
541
NOTE
For the fiber optic LAN, refer to Network Cable Systems Planning (B0193UX).
♦ Carrierband LAN cable (coaxial) – interconnects nodes comprising the LAN. Can
consist of two, independent cables (designated A and B) for redundancy.
♦ Passive tap – provides a connection between the Carrierband LAN cable and the drop
cabling.
♦ Drop cable – provides topological isolation of the CLI and associated I/A Series
equipment from the Carrierband LAN cable.
♦ Coax termination assembly – a passive (nonactive) cable interconnecting device.
♦ Interface cable – provides a connection between the drop cable and the CLI.
♦ Coaxial Carrierband LAN interface – provides signal interfacing between the various
nodes in a LAN. The non-fault-tolerant version of the CLI occupies two slots in an
I/A Series mounting structure. The fault-tolerant version occupies four slots.
To make the cable connections, refer to one or more of the following figures as appropriate, and
perform the following steps:
♦ Figure 10-95 on page 543, Non-Fault-Tolerant Carrierband LAN Interface Cabling –

LANs (Using Mounting Plate).
Proceed as follows:
1. Locate the coax termination assembly (or assemblies), Foxboro part number
P0901XW.
2. Mount the coax termination assembly (or assemblies) on a DIN rail or plug connector
mounting plate that you have in your enclosure:
a. If the enclosure uses DIN rails, snap the coax termination assembly (or assem-
blies) onto the DIN rail in close proximity to the CLI.
b. If the enclosure uses plug connector mounting plates, remove the spring clips
from the coax termination assembly (or assemblies) and, using the 6-32 machine
screws provided with the coax termination assembly, mount the assembly (or
assemblies) on the plug connector mounting plate in close proximity to the CLI.
c. Connect a 14 AWG insulated copper wire between the coax termination assembly
(a screw is provided on the assembly for this purpose) and the enclosure earth bus.
542
3. Connect the interface cable(s) between the CLI and the coax termination assembly (or
assemblies).
4. Connect the corresponding drop cable(s) to the other side of the coax termination
assembly (or assemblies).
5. Engage the peripheral connector plugs (on the CLI modules) by inserting the hex
driver tool into the peripheral connector engagement actuator slots and turning 1/2-
turn clockwise.

Panel Display and Auto/Manual Station Interface

Cabling
The Panel Display and Auto/Manual Station consist of a panel-mounted Panel Display Station
and an optional, hard-wired Auto/Manual Station. The Panel Display Station connects to a Panel
Display Processor (see Note), located in an I/A Series mounting structure, via an extended field-
bus. The Auto/Manual Station connects to the same Panel Display Processor as the Panel Display
Station, but the connection is made via a fieldbus module (FBM22).
NOTE
The Panel Display Processor is actually a Control Processor 30 (P0960AW) and is
labeled as such on its data label. The module assumes its intended function (as
Panel Display Processor) when you insert the appropriate module identifier (letter-
bug set), and the system software initializes the module.
If fiber optic communication is to be used in the cabling configuration, refer to the Network Cable
Systems Installation and Maintenance (B0193UW) and Network Systems Cable Planning
(B0193UX) documents for cable installation instructions.
Associated Foxboro part numbers are:
Panel Display Processor (Control Processor 30) P0960AW
Auto/Manual Interface Module (FBM22) P0900HS
Panel Display Station, 100 V ac P0901AA

Three different cabling configurations are possible, depending on whether the Panel Display Pro-
cessor is fault-tolerant (FT) or non-fault-tolerant (NFT), and whether the fieldbus is redundant
(RD) or non-redundant (NRD). The following figures show the Panel Display and Auto/Manual
Station Interface cabling with these configurations:

Panel Display and A/M Station Fieldbus Cabling

Figure 10-109 shows a typical fieldbus cabling configuration (between enclosures). The fieldbus
cables, termination assemblies, isolators, and cabling connections are identical to those used for
the remote fieldbus extension.
! CAUTION
In order for the Panel Display Stations to operate properly, the proper fieldbus con-
nections must be made at the isolators (Fieldbus A to isolator A, and Fieldbus B to
isolator B.) If the isolators are installed in the lower section of the mounting struc-

Auto/Manual Station Cabling

Auto/Manual Station cabling (and associated field wiring) occurs using either of two types of
cable termination: combination plug/discrete wire termination, or plug termination. Refer to
Figure 10-111, Figure 10-112, or Figure 10-113 as appropriate for your system configuration and
perform the following steps:
1. Attach the discrete wire block and/or plug connector to a DIN rail or plug
connector mounting plate in the field termination area of the enclosure. (The discrete
wire block snaps onto the DIN rail and is secured by a mounting screw, while the plug
connector block fastens to the mounting plate by means of two screws provided.)
NOTE
If the plug/discrete wire termination assembly is to be used in an enclosure designed
to accommodate only plug connectors, a DIN rail must be added in the field termi-
nation area to mount the discrete wire block. If the plug/discrete-wire termination
assembly is to be used in an enclosure designed to accommodate only discrete wire
connectors, the plug connector may be allowed to hang free in the field termination
area (or it may be secured, by means of cable ties, to any available tie point).
2. Plug the termination connector onto the Fieldbus Module, and secure by tightening
screw.
3. Plug the Auto/Manual Station interface cable into the Auto/Manual Station.
4. Make the connections between the two cable assemblies.
554
5. Make the field wiring connections (to the FBM22 connection block or plug
connector) in accordance with the tabular information.
6. Make up a module identifier from letterbugs and plug it into the Fieldbus Module
termination connector.
7. Repeat Steps 1 through 6 for each Auto/Manual Station installed.

Auto/Manual Station Grounding

It is sometimes necessary to separate the earth ground associated with the panel in which the Dis-
play Station is installed from the safety ground associated with the isolated ac mains power input.
This has been accomplished in the past with a custom modification of the Display Station (ECEP
13406). It is now convenient to make the modification at the time of installation if it is necessary.
Instructions are provided below.
! WARNING
Presently produced display units and housings are backward compatible with stan-
dard units produced in the past but display units and housings which were modi-
fied per ECEP-13406 must not be intermixed with these units or housings nor
with older unmodified units or housings. In addition, once units and housings are
modified as described below, they must not be mixed with unmodified units and
housings. Failure to heed this warning may interrupt the case grounding and thus
present a safety hazard.
To separate the case ground from the isolated electrical earth ground, two green wires must be
removed, and an external ground wire (supplied by the you, the user) must be added.
! WARNING
Do not remove any green/yellow wires!
556
1. Extract the Display Unit from its housing. Separate the housing’s back panel from its
sleeve (by removing the four screws) to access the wiring more easily. Locate and clip
out the green wire which connects the ground connection of the ac terminal block to
the screw connection on the back panel’s sheet metal. Reinstall the back panel to the
housing sleeve with the four screws removed above.
2. Looking at the rear of the Display Unit, locate and clip out the green wire which con-
nects the right-most station of the power terminal block to the screw connection on
the transformer bracket’s sheet metal.
3. Once the housing is installed in the panel, install a suitable grounding wire from the
ground stud on the rear lip at the bottom of the housing to the panel’s earth ground
connection point.

Hydrostatic Tank Gauge Interface Cabling

The Hydrostatic Tank Gauge (HTG) interface consists of a Tank Processor 10 (TP10) (see note);
one or more Hydrostatic Interface Units (HIUs), Model No. 880PFC; and may include one or
more Fieldbus Modules. The HIUs and FBMs connect to the TP10, located in the I/A Series
mounting structure, via an extended fieldbus.
NOTE
The Tank Processor 10 is labeled “Control Processor 10, P/N P0400VR” on its data
label. The module assumes its intended function (as TP10) when you insert the
appropriate module identifier (letterbug set), and the system software initializes the
module.
If fiber optic communication is to be used in the cabling configuration, refer to the Network Cable
Systems Installation and Maintenance (B0193UW) and Network Cable Systems Planning
(B0193UX) documents for cable installation instructions.
Fieldbus Modules that can be used with the TP10 are: FBM09A to FBM09D, FBM10, FBM14A
to FBM14D, and FBM15.
Two cabling configurations are possible, depending on whether the fieldbus is redundant or non-
redundant. Figure 10-115 and Figure 10-116 show the HTG interface cabling with both of these
fieldbus configurations.
558

11. Initial Power-Up Procedures
This chapter describes the final checks which must be approved before the I/A Series equipment
can be powered up.
The initial power-up procedures consist of the following operations:
♦ Pre-power switchon checks
♦ Connecting the batteries in the memory backup power modules (if applicable)
♦ System power switchon
♦ System operational checks.
These procedures are presented in the following sections.
NOTE
Before performing the following procedures, review “Installation Checklist” on
page 583.
Pre-Power Switchon Checks

Before applying main power, perform the following:
1. Check that main power at the power distribution panel is set to off.
2. Set the power on/off switch(es) (circuit breakers) in each enclosure to the off (0) posi-
tion.
3. Check that all peripheral devices (printers, and so forth) are plugged into the appro-
priate power outlets and that all equipment switches are set to off (or to the position
specified in the applicable manufacturer’s manual).
4. Check that the power switch on the Application Processor 50/51, Workstation Proces-
sor 50/51/70, and/or Application Workstation 50/51/70 and all associated data stor-
age devices are set to the off (0) position.
5. Load paper into printer(s) and/or color copier(s) according to the manufacturer’s
instructions.
6. For applicable enclosures (see “Over-Temperature Sensor Wiring” on page 29) ensure
that an over-temperature sensor is properly installed.
575
B0193AC – Rev T 11. Initial Power-Up Procedures
System Power Switchon

! CAUTION
For non-redundant IE16 and IE32 enclosure power configurations, when powering
the enclosure on, turn on the primary circuit breaker(s) before turning on the
backup breaker(s). (Refer to “Industrial Enclosure 16, Power Connections” on
page 66 and “Industrial Enclosure 32, Power Connections” on page 69.) Similarly,
when powering the enclosure down, turn off the backup breaker first. These
sequences eliminate the condition of overstressing the IPM03(A or D) as it attempts
to power a whole cell of modules. Failure to follow these power up/down sequences
could result in damage to the IPM03(A or D).
To power up the system:

1. Perform the pre-power switchon checks listed above.
2. Switch on the main power at the power distribution panel.
3. Observing the CAUTION statement at the beginning of this section, set the power
on/off switch(es) (circuit breakers) in each enclosure to the on (1) position.
4. Set the power on/off switch on the AP50/51, WP50/51/70, and/or AW50/51/70 and
all associated data storage devices to the on (1) position.
5. Perform the battery connection procedure and system operational checks on each
enclosure (see below).
6. Switch on power to each peripheral device (printer, display, color copier, and so forth).
7. Close all equipment doors and replace all panels.
NOTE
After a power cycle of a 50 Series station (not including the GCIO) the
keyboard may remain off-line. Cycling power to the GCIO and selecting a key cor-
rects this.

11. Initial Power-Up Procedures B0193AC – Rev T
Battery Connection in Memory Backup Power

Module IPM06(A or D)
Perform the following steps if your installation contains memory backup power modules.
Pb
ATTENTION:
The product you have purchased contains a rechargeable battery.
The battery is recyclable. At the end of its useful life, under various state
and local laws, it may be illegal to dispose of this battery into the municipal
waste stream. Check with your local solid waste officials for details in
your area for recycling options or proper disposal methods.
To prevent power drain, your power module is shipped with its internal battery disconnected.
The battery must be connected before the memory battery backup feature can be utilized.
NOTE
Complete battery replacement procedures are provided in Chapter 3 of the
System Maintenance document (B0193AD).
! CAUTION
After battery is connected, any removal of power from the enclosure – intentional or
otherwise – will allow the battery to drain. Also, failure to keep a battery in a
charged condition will degrade battery life. If a battery (or IPM06(A or D) module
containing the battery) is not to be placed into service immediately, the battery
must be recharged every four months. Refer to the System Maintenance document
(B0193AD) for instructions on how to charge/recharge and replace the batteries.
To connect the battery, proceed as follows:

1. Determine if your installation contains any IPM06(A or D) or memory backup power
modules. The memory backup power modules are resident in the following enclosures
when the enclosures are powered by non-redundant main power (that is, backup and
battery backup power configurations):
♦ Field Enclosures 4 and 8
577
a. An alternate method to determine if your installation contains memory battery

backup power modules is to refer to the information developed during the site
planning phase.
b. The modules are not present in enclosures having redundant (that is, nonstop)
main power configurations.
c. An enclosure may contain several memory backup power modules.
2. Locate the memory backup power module(s) in the mounting structure or enclosure
as follows:
a. Starting with the right-most power module in the lower half of the mounting
structure, loosen the power module’s retaining screws and slide the power module
part way out (Figure 11-1).
b. Read the label attached to the side of the power module to determine the power
module type. If it is not a Memory Backup Power Module IPM06(A or D), repo-
sition the module back into its slot.
c. Repeat Steps a and b for the remaining power modules in the lower half of the
mounting structure.
3. Locate the access door at the right side of the memory backup power module.
4. Referring to Figure 11-2, insert the tip of a small flathead screwdriver into the space at
the top center of the door. Twist the blade until the door is released from the module.
5. Locate the battery lead and the battery terminal at the battery. The terminal may be
covered by a small piece of tape.
6. Referring to Figure 11-3, connect the lead to the terminal.
7. Replace the door, snapping it into position so that it is securely attached to the mod-
ule.
8. Reposition the power module back into its original slot.
9. Use the hex driver tool to secure the module into its slot.
10. Repeat Steps 2 through 9 for each mounting structure in your system.
NOTE
When the memory backup power module is repositioned into its slot, the red and
green indicators on the front of the module will illuminate, indicating that the bat-
tery is being charged. Charge the battery for 12-18 hours before you use it.

System Operational Checks

Following are system operational checks presented for 70 Series, 50 Series and 20/30 Series equip-
ment. Perform these checks as applicable to your system equipment.
Server 70 and 70 Series System

The following Server 70 and 70 Series devices have a green power on indicator, located on their
front panels:
♦ Workstation Processor 70
♦ Application Workstation 70 processor
♦ External tape drives.
After applying power to each of these devices, check that the power indicator is on.
50 Series System Operational Checks

Each of the following 50 Series devices has a green power on indicator, located on its front panel:
♦ Application Processor 50/51
♦ Workstation Processor 50/51
♦ Application Workstation 50/51
580
♦ 1.3 GB hard disk drive

♦ 644 MB CD-ROM.
After applying power to each of these devices, check that the power indicator is on.
NOTE
The green LED at the front of the 50 Series and 70 Series tape drives (150 MB, 5
GB, and 12 GB) indicate data transfer activity, not power on/off status. To deter-
mine the power on status of these devices, check that the cooling fan (at the rear of
the device) is turning.
Series 20 and 30 System Operational Checks

X-Modules, Z-Modules, Fieldbus Modules, Fieldbus Isolators, and Industrial Power Modules
contain red and green status indicators (LEDs) that provide an indication of the condition of the
modules. These indicators are a primary means of fault detection in the I/A Series system.
After applying power the system, check the operational status of these modules as follows:
♦ X-Modules, Z-Modules, and Fieldbus Modules – During the first eight seconds after
application of power, automatic self-checks are performed in each of these modules.
During this time, the red and green operational status LEDs on the modules are illu-
minated. If the self-checks are successful, the red and green LEDs remain illuminated
after the 8-second period. If the self-checks are unsuccessful, the green LED becomes
extinguished, and the red LED remains illuminated.
♦ Fieldbus Isolators – When system power is switched on, all LEDs on the Fieldbus Iso-
lator illuminate momentarily (less than one second). Then, the green LED should
then be illuminated, with all other LEDs in the module extinguished. (A red LED
illuminated indicates a malfunction in the Fieldbus Isolator clock circuitry or power
supply.)
♦ Industrial Power Modules – When system power is switched on, the green LED on
each Industrial Power Module (IPM) should be illuminated, and the red LED extin-
guished. (A red LED illuminated indicates a fault within the IPM.)
Replace any module that is defective (any module with green LED off and red LED on).
Once all of the modules are determined to be operational (per LED status described above), run
the off-line system diagnostics (refer to the System Maintenance document (B0193AD)) and then
load the system software:
♦ for a 50 Series processor, refer to Software Installation (Solaris Platform) (B0193JG)
♦ for a 70 Series processor, refer to Hardware and Software Specific Instructions for 70
Series Processors document included with your processor (see “Determining the Type
of Processor You Have” on page 589)
♦ for a Server 70 processor, refer to Hardware and Software Specific Instructions for
Server 70 Processors document included with your processor (see “Determining
Server 70 Processor Type” on page 594).

Appendix B. SCSI Bus
Configuration Guide
This appendix provides specific information pertaining to I/A Series processors and modules
with internal and/or external SCSI-2 and SCSI-3 buses.
When choosing components for connection on a SCSI bus for any processor, you must be aware
of the limits within which a SCSI bus operates properly. The Model 50/51, Style A, B, and C pro-
cessors have a SCSI-2 bus, which must be equal to or less than six meters.
The Model 51, Style E processors have a high speed, ultra-wide SCSI-3 bus, which must be equal
to or less than three meters.
The Model 51, Style D processor requires a Twisted-Pair 10/100 Mbps Ethernet Interface plus
Ultra-Wide SCSI-3 PCI card to support external SCSI functionality. This card provides an exter-
nal high speed, ultra-wide SCSI-3 bus for this processor, which must be equal to or less than three
meters.
It should be noted that the sum of the physical lengths of the interconnecting cables is only one
factor in the total equivalent SCSI bus length. Each device on the SCSI bus, including the proces-
sor, adds a portion to the overall length.
! CAUTION
Due to these limitations, the Model 51, Style D and E processors cannot have more
than two SCSI devices on their SCSI-3 bus. If you plan to include an external tape
drive on the SCSI-3 bus to back up the processor’s hard drive(s), this tape drive
must be included as one of the two SCSI devices.
Table B-1 gives the equivalent SCSI length for each device and cable. The sum of the
equivalent SCSI lengths of all of the components that reside on the SCSI bus must be less than six
meters for the SCSI-2 bus, and three meters for the SCSI-3 bus. In practice, the system does not
cease to function at lengths just beyond the total equivalent SCSI length, but reliability of the bus
begins to erode beyond that point.

Determining GX-Based 70 Series Processor Type

If you have a GX-based processor, you can determine the processor type from the P-Code label on
the bottom right-hand corner of the right side of your processor.
A P-Code is a production code used to identify a machine and its hardware configuration. The
label is illustrated in Figure C-5. The information found on this label lets you identify the model
type of your processor (AW70A, WP70 or AW70B), and the Style type. The Style type is a letter
which allows you to determine which GX-based processor you have. It is followed by a letter rep-
resenting hardware revision level, which you should ignore.
NOTE
If you are unable to locate your P-Code, or you have made modifications to your
machine without updating the P-Code, contact 1-888-FOXBORO (or 1-888-369-
2676), or outside the U.S., 508-549-2424 for assistance.

Interface Card Overview

You can install the following interface cards into the AW/WP70, Style A and AW70, Style B
workstation:
594
♦ PC-FB card (Setup instructions are on page 626)

♦ DigiBoard card (Setup instructions are in “Installing a DigiBoard” on page 361)
♦ An additional Ethernet card: 3Com 3C900 (PCI) card, or 3Com 3C509 card (ISA)
(Setup instructions are in “Installing an Ethernet Card” on page 366)
♦ Allen-Bradley 1784-KTX communications interface ISA card (setup instructions are
on page 628) or an Allen-Bradley PKTX PCI card (setup instructions are on
page 369)
♦ Video card (Setup instructions are in Installation Instructions for Multi-Head Video
Cards document (B0193SW), on page 371, or included in documentation with your
70 Series processor).
In addition to physically installing a card into the workstation, often you may have to first set the
card’s DIP switches or jumpers to specify the I/O address and the interrupt request (IRQ). Some
cards, however, perform an automatic selection. Card-specific installation instructions are
described later in this appendix.
The following sections provide the specific card slot locations, interrupt requests (IRQ), and I/O
addresses for the previous versions of the processors described above. Refer to “Setting the PC’s
Voltage Selector Switch” on page 350 for additional information on 70 Series workstations.
Refer to “Configuring Sound” on page 366 to activate the sound function in your workstation.
Refer to “Printer Connections in AW/WP70, Style A and AW70, Style B Workstations (All
Types)” on page 624 to connect printers to your workstation.
Setting the CMOS BIOS in an 70 Series Processor

The CMOS BIOS for the 70 Series processor supports Plug and Play. On rare occasions, such as
after changing the 70 Series processor’s CMOS battery, you must override the IRQ setting deter-
mined by Plug and Play. The Plug and Play feature causes the interface cards (such as the 3COM
3C900 PCI Ethernet card) to take unpredictable interrupt requests. This can cause a conflict
between interface cards which are recognized by the Plug and Play feature, and cards that are not.
Should this IRQ conflict occur, the BIOS settings must be reset to their original settings.
For all PowerMate-based processors, refer to CMOS Parameter Sheet for Application Workstation,
70A and Workstation Processor 70A (B0400PC) and CMOS Parameter Sheet for SCSI Application
Workstation 70B (B0400PD) for instructions on resetting the CMOS BIOS.
For all other processors, refer to the Hardware and Software Specific Instructions for 70 Series Proces-
sors document included with your processors for instructions on resetting the CMOS BIOS.
You may need to reinstall some of the card’s drivers as well (such as the 3COM 3C900 PCI Ether-
net card’s driver). Refer to the Hardware and Software Specific Instructions for 70 Series
Processors document included with your processor (if available) or Software Installation
(Windows NT Operating System) document (B0400JG) for driver installation instructions.
