Processor and Memory

The FB100-Series derives processing power from a 32-bit
microprocessor. The 32-bit CMOS microprocessor features dual 32-bit
internal data buses and a single 8-bit external data bus. The unit can
address up to 4 MB of memory, including high-speed direct memory
access.
The FB100 has 512 KB of static random access memory (SRAM) for
storing interrupt vectors, Proportional, Integral, and Derivative alarms,
events, and history data.
The FB100 also has a 2 MB flash memory chip for storing the operating
system factory code, configuration parameters, and User C programs.

Liquid Crystal Display

An optional two-line Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) panel mounts on the
Battery Charger module.
The LCD allows you to view the current and past gas volumes on site
without requiring a PC. The LCD provides you a visual indication of the
status of the meter run by displaying the historical performance data to
help ensure the health and integrity of your installation.
The LCD panel remains on at all times when the power is applied in the
valid operating range. The panel cycles its display through a configured
list of up to 16 parameter values, with the first seven being pre-
configured. The first three displays show values for time, date, and
battery condition and cannot be configured. The next five displays show
certain flow parameters and are factory configured, but you may change
their configuration.
To configure the list of values for the LCD panel, refer to the LCD User
List Setup procedure in the ROCLINK 800 Configuration Software User
Manual (Part D301159X012).

Communications Ports

The FB100 provides two standard and one optional communication
ports:
▪ Standard Operator interface port EIA-232 (RS-232) – LOI.
▪ Standard EIA-485 (RS-485) Communications – Comm 1.
▪ Optional EIA-232 (RS-232), or Dial-up Modem Communications –
Comm 2.
