2. Description and Operation Introduction

2. Description and Operation

2.1 Introduction
This section explains the operation of the FEC12 module. The module performs two major tasks:
• Provides an interface by which a Harmony controller can input analog process data from external devices.
• Serves as a communication link between the Symphony system and field devices.

The controller communicates with its I/O modules over the I/O expander bus (Figure 1-1). Each I/O module on the bus has
a unique address set by its address dipswitch (S1).

The FEC12 module accepts inputs from conventional transmitters (BC, EQ, and PT) and standard analog inputs of 4 to 20
milliamperes, 1 to 5 VDC, 0 to 1 VDC, 0 to 5 VDC, 0 to 10 VDC, and -10 to +10 VDC.

2.2 Module Description

The FEC12 module is an intelligent module, with on-board microprocessor, memory, analog-to-digital converter and
communication circuitry. The module is a single printed circuit board that occupies one slot in a module mounting unit
(MMU). Two captive latches on the module faceplate secure it to the module mounting unit.

The module has three card edge connectors for external signals (transmitter inputs and communication), system
communication (I/O expander bus), and power. The module receives input through a cable connection to a termination unit
(TU). Wiring from the field devices connect to terminal blocks on the termination unit.

The FEC12 circuit board only uses one working setting. Dipswitch S1 holds the I/O expander bus address of the module.
Jumpers J2 through J4 and J6 through J20 are not used.

2.3 General Operation

Upon receiving initialization from the controller, the FEC12 module stores that information in memory and checks the
configuration of each input channel. If all input channels check good, operation begins. If the FEC12 module detects a
configuration error, that error appears in the module status report.

Under normal operation, the controller sends transmitter commands and requests process input data and status information
from the FEC12 module. The FEC12 module continuously reads each input channel, performs the necessary conversions,
and stores the data in memory. When the controller makes a request for data, the FEC12 module sends it the most current
information that it has in memory.

If a communication failure with one of the transmitters occurs, the FEC12 module works to restore communication while
continuing normal operation. It checks the transmitter configuration upon restoring transmitter communication and normal
process control continues.

2.4 Controller Operation

The controller directs the operation of the transmitters and holds their operating strategy. FC 132 (analog input/slave) reads
the analog inputs of the FEC12 module. Operation begins when the controller is placed in the execute mode with FC 132 in
its configuration. When the controller enters the execute mode, it downloads the operating strategy to the FEC12 module.

2.5 Functional Operation

Operation can be divided into four functional blocks for the FEC12 module.

The following figure (Figure 2-1) shows a block diagram of the modules. The functional blocks are:
• Module inputs/outputs
• Microprocessor and control logic
• Analog-to-digital converter

2VAA001648 2-1
Microprocessor and Control Logic Circuitry 2. Description and Operation

• I/O expander bus interface.

Figure 2-1 Functional Block Diagram

2.5.1 Microprocessor and Control Logic Circuitry

The on-board microprocessor and control logic coordinates module functions. The microprocessor has four main functions:
• Storing the digital data in random access memory (RAM).
• Coordinating analog-to-digital conversion.
• Reading and sending data to the controller.
The microprocessor directly links to eight kilobytes of RAM. This memory serves as a storage area for process data and
transmitter configuration information.

The microprocessor coordinates analog-to-digital conversions through ADC circuitry. The microprocessor takes the
converted process data it receives from the ADC circuitry and places it into a memory buffer. It remains in memory until the
controller makes a request for process data or the microprocessor updates it with a new value. When the microprocessor
receives a request for process data, it transfers that data from the memory buffer to a first in first out (FIFO) shift register
where the controller can access it through the I/O expander bus interface.

The controller communicates with the FEC12 module over the I/O expander bus. An ABB designed integrated circuit
interfaces the microprocessor to the I/O expander bus. All controller commands and process data pass through the I/O
expander bus interface and first in first out inputs or outputs.

2.5.2 Input/Output Circuitry

Process inputs to the FEC12 module can be standard analog signals of four to 20 milliamperes and ±10 VDC; or analog
(point-to-point). The module input circuit provides a path for process data inputs. This path handles standard analog inputs
and analog point-to-point inputs.

2-2 2VAA001648
2. Description and Operation Analog-to-Digital Converter

2.5.2.1 Analog Inputs (Point-to-Point Mode)

All analog inputs are point-to-point. Each channel has an analog input filter that separates the communication signal from
the process data (analog input) before the data goes to the analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The microprocessor
coordinates operation of point-to-point input and output through multiplexers.

The following figure (Figure 2-2) shows a typical analog input filter circuit. The circuit connects to the FEC12 termination
(point-to-point) through the P3 connector. Each analog input has overvoltage protection to protect the circuitry. The analog
signal passes through two low pass filters that separate communication from data. The microprocessor multiplexes the
filtered input signal (process data) to the ADC circuitry for conversion.

Figure 2-2 Analog Input Filter and Overvoltage Protection

The FEC12 module does analog-to-digital conversions on each input channel continuously at five times per second. After
converting the analog signal to a digital equivalent, the FEC12 module stores that value in memory. When in the
point-to-point-mode, the FEC12 module can input four to 20 milliamperes or -10 to +10 VDC. FC 132 allows selecting the
signal type for each channel.

2.5.3 Analog-to-Digital Converter

The FEC12 module can digitize analog values within the range of -10 to +10 volts.

The following figure (Figure 2-3) shows the analog-to-digital conversion circuitry. The analog-to-digital control chip provides
the logic needed to control the dual slope integrator. The analog-to-digital conversion takes place in three stages: input
integration, de-integration with a +10 or -10 volts reference and zeroing the integrator/de-integrator.

Figure 2-3 Analog-to-Digital Conversion Circuitry

The microprocessor signals the ADC circuitry to begin converting inputs. The ADC circuitry selects the input, reference
voltage and conversion operation through the select multiplexer. The input signal from the select multiplexer passes through

2VAA001648 2-3
I/O Expander Bus Interface Circuitry 2. Description and Operation

buffers and a differential amplifier that converts the input signal to a single ended voltage. Then the signal goes to the input
of the integrator/de-integrator stage.

The ADC circuitry selects a positive or negative reference voltage for this stage. Once the integrator is set to zero, the ADC
circuitry allows the integrator to run until its output reaches the reference voltage. At this point, the ADC circuitry selects the
de-integration operation and begins a count until the zero crossing circuit detects the signal at zero. A feedback and zeroing
amplifier sets the integrator to zero and the process repeats with the opposite polarity of the input and reference voltage.
The count that the ADC circuitry takes during the de-integration operation is the digital equivalent of the input. It sends that
information and the polarity to the microprocessor. The microprocessor places it into memory and signals the ADC circuitry
to begin the next conversion.

2.5.4 I/O Expander Bus Interface Circuitry

The FEC12 module uses a semi-custom gate array for the I/O expander bus interface. An integrated circuit (IC) holds all the
control logic and communication protocol. This IC circuit provides the following functions:
• Address comparison and detection.
• Function code latching and decoding.
• Read strobe generation.

3.5 Dipswitch and Jumper Settings

For the FEC12 module, there is one dipswitch (S1) that must be set before installing the module (Figure 3-1). The single
dipswitch sets the I/O expander bus address.

Figure 3-1 Module Layout

3.5.1 Module Address Dipswitch (S1)

The FEC12 module must have a unique address on the I/O expander bus. The FEC12 module can have one of 64
addresses (zero to 63). This address identifies the FEC module to the controller and must be the same as the address set
in the controller configuration (FC 132, specification S1).

Set the address with the eight-position address dipswitch (S1) shown in Figure 3-1. Switch positions three through eight of
S1 set the six-bit address. Positions one and two must remain in the closed position.

Refer to the following table (Table 3-1) for examples of address settings. Record the I/O expander bus address of the
FEC12 module in the space provided.

4. Operating Procedures Introduction

4. Operating Procedures
4.1 Introduction
This section explains the startup and operating procedures for the FEC12 module.

4.2 Startup
To start up the FEC12 module:
1. Apply power to the module.
2. Place the controller in execute mode.

Communication between the FEC12 module and the controller begins automatically if there are no configuration errors and
the controller is in the execute mode.

Upon startup, all channels are marked bad quality. The controller sends the FEC12 module the transmitter configurations
and the FEC12 module begins checking each channel. If the module detects a channel that is set up for an analog input (FC
132 only) and there are no other errors, the module marks that channel good quality and begins checking the next channel.

4.3 Operation
Normal operation begins after the FEC12 module completes the communication checks of all input channels. During
operation, the function code specifications can be tuned through a human system interface. Refer to the Symphony Plus
Function Code Application Manual for more information on FC 132 (analog input).

NOTE: Online configuration changes which affect the mode of operation are not supported for FCs 132 and 133. A mode
change (reset) of the controller or FEC12 module may be required for changes to take effect.

4.4 Status LEDs

The FEC12 module has two LEDs (red/green) on its faceplate that indicate module status.

The following figure (Figure 4-2) shows the location of the status LEDs on the FEC12 faceplate. Refer to Table 4-1 for a list
of LED states and their descriptions.

5. Troubleshooting Introduction

5. Troubleshooting
5.1 Introduction
This section explains how to detect FEC12 module errors and the corrective action to take for those errors.

5.2 Module Status Reports

Status reports from the controller are available through any human system interface such as a workstation running
Conductor software. The status report displays specific FEC12 module error codes when an error occurs. The status report
contains an error number, I/O module address, and function block number. Refer to the appropriate human system interface
instruction for the steps to call up the module status report.

To determine if the error number belongs to the FEC12 module, check the function block to find the function code assigned
to the block. If the block is FC 132, then the status report refers to the FEC12 module.

The following table (Table 5-1) lists the meaning of FEC12 status report error codes and corrective actions.

Check FC 132 for correct specification values
such as I/O module address.

5.3 Missing I/O Module Error

A missing I/O module error (no FEC response or wrong type) occurs when the I/O module address set by dipswitch S1 does
not match the I/O module address in the controller configuration (FC 132). This error appears in the status bytes of the
controller (bytes three through five). A missing I/O module error sets byte three equal to 03 and bytes four and five equal to
the block number of the missing I/O module. A missing I/O module error also occurs if the I/O module and controller do not
share the same I/O expander bus.

Follow the given steps to correct a missing I/O module error:

1. Remove the module and check the setting of address switch S1.

NOTE: It should match the I/O module address set in FC 132 in the controller configuration.

2. Go to Step 4, if the I/O module addresses match.

OR
3. Correct the I/O module addressing error, if the I/O module addresses do not match, as follows:
a. Change the setting of S1 on the I/O module to match the I/O module address set in its configuration.
Refer to Table 3-1 for details on how to set the FEC12 address.
- or -
b. Modify the I/O module address in the controller configuration (FC 132) to match the I/O module address set
by S1.
Refer to the Symphony Plus Function Code Application Manual for information about the function code.
4. Verify that the I/O module and its controller reside on the same I/O expander bus.
5. Install a 24-pin dipshunt (all pins intact) in all dipshunt sockets of the module mounting unit between the FEC12
module and its controller.

Printed Circuit Board Cleaning 6. Maintenance

• Checking signal, power and ground connections.

• Cleaning printed circuit boards.

6.4.1 Printed Circuit Board Cleaning

Never clean electrical parts of components with live power present. Doing so exposes you
to an electrical shock hazard.

Wear eye protection whenever working with cleaning solvents. When removing solvents
from printed circuit boards using compressed air, injury to the eyes could result from
splashing solvent as it is removed from the printed circuit board.
There are several circuit board cleaning procedures in this section. These procedures cover circuit board cleaning and
washing, cleaning edge connectors and circuit board laminate between edge connectors. Use the procedures that meet the
needs of each circuit board. Remove all dust, dirt, oil, corrosion or any other contaminant from the circuit board.

Do all cleaning and handling of the printed circuit boards at static safe work stations. Always observe the steps listed under
sub-section 3.2- Special Handling of this user manual when handling printed circuit boards.

6.4.1.1 General Cleaning and Washing

If the printed circuit board needs minor cleaning, remove dust and residue from the printed circuit board surface using
clean, dry, filtered compressed air or an antistatic field service vacuum cleaner.

Another method of washing the printed circuit board is:

1. Clean the printed circuit board by spraying it with isopropyl alcohol (99.5% electronic grade)
or
2. Wipe the board with a foam-tipped swab wetted in isopropyl alcohol.
3. Remove excess solvent by using compressed air to blow it free of the circuit board, when the circuit board is
clean.

6.4.1.2 Edge Connector Cleaning

Follow the given steps to clean edge connector contacts:
1. Use a solvent mixture of 80% isopropyl alcohol (99.5% electronic grade) and 20% distilled water.
2. Soak a lint-free cloth with the solvent mixture.
3. Work the cloth back and forth parallel to the edge connector contacts.
4. Repeat with a clean cloth that is soaked with the solvent mixture.
5. Dry the edge connector contact area by wiping with a clean lint-free cloth.

Follow the given steps to clean tarnished or deeply stained edge connector contacts:
1. Use a soft rubber eraser or equivalent to remove tarnish or stains. Fiberglass or nylon burnishing brushes may
also be used.
2. Minimize electrostatic discharge by using the 80/20 isopropyl alcohol/water solution during burnishing.

NOTE: Do not use excessive force while burnishing but use only enough force to shine the contact surface.

3. Inspect the edge connector after cleaning to assure no loss of contact surface.

6.4.2 Checking Connections

NOTE: Power to the cabinet should be off while performing this preventive maintenance task..
There are exposed AC and DC connections inside the cabinet. These exposed electrical
connections present a shock hazard that can cause injury or death.

If input or output circuits are a shock hazard after disconnecting system power at the
power entry panel, then the door of the cabinet containing these externally powered
circuits must be marked with a warning stating that multiple power sources exist.
Check all signal wiring, power and ground connections within the cabinet to verify their integrity. When checking
connections, always turn a screw, nut or other fastening device in the direction to tighten only. If the connection is loose, it
will be tightened. If the connection is tight, the tightening action will verify that it is secure. There must not be any motion
done to loosen the connection.
