National Instruments FP-1001 Network Module for FieldPoint
The FP-1001 Network Module for FieldPoint is a hot-swappable plug-and-play module, which means that the network module allows you to remove or insert the I/O modules into the terminal bases while power is on, without needing to power down the system.
Any RS-485 connector card can be associated with the FP-1001 FieldPoint (part number 777517-01) and arranged and introduced in a host PC or to the RS-485 repeater port of an FP-1000. Since RS-485 is characteristically a multidrop arrangement, the FP-1001 does not give a different RS-485 repeater. The user can arrange different FP-1001 modules in multidrop mode. The NI FP-1001 communicates over RS-485, using full- or half-duplex mode. It is optically isolated, which forestalls coupling between the RS-485 system and the FP-1001. An elective technique is to associate the FP-1001 straightforwardly with the host PC if the host PC gives an RS-485 interface. The user can interface a maximum of 25 FP-1001 Network Modules to every RS-485 port on the host PC.
In this model, the switches 1 to 5 can set the module’s address. The addresses of the terminal bases in a FieldPoint bank are consequently designed by the module to be consecutively higher than the system module's location. For instance, if the module is set to address 20, the I/O module in the terminal base neighboring the module is at location 21, the following I/O module is at location 22, etc. Also, an 11–30 VDC control supply is required by each FieldPoint module. The network module channels and manages this provided power. The user can utilize the terminals available on every terminal base to make power associations if the field I/O gadgets need to be fueled independently.
The FP-1001 can be programmed using the FieldPoint software, which includes the components LabVIEW VIs, LabWindows/CVI functions, FieldPoint Explorer Configuration Utility, Lookout Driver Class, BridgeVIEW, and the OPC server. The device has the baud rates 300, 1200, 2400, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, and 115200 (switch-settable). It has a cabling distance of 4000 ft from the host. It has recommended operating and storage temperature ranges of -40 to +70 °C and -55 to 90 °C, respectively.
FP-1001 Obsolete Status has been announced by National Instruments, but the module will still be available for purchase and repairs by Apex Waves.
