Product Description
3.4 KT-MB-GT2AD.FF.IO - Diagnostic Gateway, Kit with I/O Motherboard
General Overview
The FieldConnex
(ADM) and provides interfaces to access the data from the diagnostic manager and PCS.
• Ethernet
Allows access to the ADMs for the diagnostic manager and the FDS/OPC server. It is
mainly used for the FDS/OPC integration, but can also be used with the FOUNDATION
Fieldbus H1 interface to enhance the functionality of the diagnostic manager and to
access the FOUNDATION Fieldbus device locally using a mobile computer.
•
FOUNDATION Fieldbus H1
Provides the core diagnostic data of up to 16 HD2-DM-A ADMs as FOUNDATION Field-
bus H1 device. The Ethernet interface can be used in addition to the FF-H1 interface to
enhance the functionality of the diagnostic manager and to access the FOUNDATION
Fieldbus device locally using a mobile computer.
• Common alarm output
The common alarm output can be used to report the ADM alarms as a volt-free contact to
a PCS input.
The gateway is seamlessly integrated into the FieldConnex
and provides many features for a fast and easy installation and setup of the advanced diagnos-
tics.
Compared to the KT-MB-GT2AD.FF diagnostic gateway the KT-MB-GT2AD.FF.IO uses a differ-
ent motherboard with I/O functionality. This includes binary inputs, binary outputs, frequency
inputs, temperature inputs and integrated sensors for temperature and humidity. These inputs
and outputs are primarily designed for cabinet management applications like heater or cooling
control and door open alarms. The cabinet management application is supported by additional
control features like on/off controllers in the diagnostic gateway.
Note
The diagnostic gateway FF-H1 connection must never be connected to device couplers like the
Pepperl+Fuchs Segment Protectors or FieldBarriers.
The diagnostic gateway must be connected directly to the trunk.
For best performance, we recommend using a separate FF-H1 diagnostic segment for
diagnostic gateways. Scheduled FB data must be kept to a minimum for this segment.
