Product Description
The FCM100ET (P0926GS) is a high-availability communication gateway for the Foxboro I/A Series Distributed Control System (DCS). It bridges the 100 Mbps MESH Ethernet network and the 2 Mbps HDLC Module Fieldbus, enabling centralized control of up to 128 Fieldbus Modules (FBMs) via the Z-Module Control Processor (ZCP270).
Designed for mission-critical reliability, the P0926GS operates in a Master/Tracker redundant pair and supports fiber optic long-distance communication, providing immunity to electromagnetic interference. Its hot-swappable design allows replacement without interrupting system operation.

FAQ
What is the difference between FCM100E and FCM100ET?
The FCM100ET (P0926GS) supports time synchronization (TDR/TDA) and SOE FBMs for sub-millisecond data logging.
Can this module be mounted in any slot?
No. For redundant operation, P0926GS modules must be installed in adjacent odd/even slot pairs on a modular baseplate (e.g., slots 1 and 2).
