Chapter 1. Introduction - Emerson FBxEdge User Manual

Chapter 1. Introduction

This guide provides a quick introduction to the Emerson FBxEdge™ solution, which
consists of an edge device (either the Emerson RXi2 – LP Industrial PC or the Emerson
RXi2 – BP Industrial PC) connecting to one or more Emerson FB3000 RTUs, Emerson
FB1000 or FB2000 series flow computers, or Emerson ROC800 RTUs. This guide covers the
installation of the physical edge device and details the process you use to link field
devices to that FBxEdge device.
Note
Using FBxEdge, you can create a network of field devices linked into a single edge device.
You can then use the FBxEdge Manager™ web-based software to connect multiple
FBxEdge devices into larger network. For more information on FBxEdge Manager, refer to
the Emerson FBxEdge Manager User Guide
