Intention of this Presentation
This presentation focusses on a gateway solution for connecting FF-H1 networks toModbus. It offers you a wide range of interesting options for your network architecture.
You can use this• For connecting Modbus/TCP or /RTU controllers to FF-H1
• For controlling a FF-H1 network as alternative to a DCS• For combining Modbus/TCP networks with FF-H1 networks and FF-H1 devices
• For connecting OPC-Clients to FF-H1 networks• For reading out cyclic process data from FF-H1 and distribute them via OPC-Server
to OPC-Clients (SCADA, ERP, MES, Database ….)
This solution offers• an easy online modification of existing FF-H1-networks without stopping the
production.• Easy access to FF-H1 market for typical PLC integrators (Siemens, Schneider ……)

New possibility: Connecting FF-H1 networks to Modbus
HSE - Common Practice:So far gateways from HSE to FF-H1 are common practice.They are used for• Connecting DCS systems with HSE interface to FF-H1• Connecting Asset-Management-Tools
• Directly via HSE: AMS from Emerson• FDT-frame applications (e.g. Fieldcare of E&H) via HSE-
CommDTM
Modbus - New Possibilities:FG-110 FF now also offers the connection from Modbus to FF-H1in parallel to the HSE connection.
This new feature offers you a wide range of new applications!This presentation focusses on the most interesting ones.
FG-110 FF

Ethernet (Modbus/TCP)
PLC withModbus/TCPInterface
With FG-110 FF you can connect any PLC withModbus/TCP interface to FF-H1 devices for cyclic dataexchange of process data as a FF-Master.
You can do this
• To control a FF-H1 network with a common PLCinstead of an expensive DCS system.
• To integrate single H1 devices to a Modbus/TCPnetwork because there may be no equivalent devicesfor Modbus/TCP on the market (ATEX ….)
Example: Use a PLC as FF-Master

FG-110 FF gives you more freedom to put together yoursystem according to your needs. You are not bound to aspecific bus system or a specific DCS vendor anymore.

DCS withH1 Host Stack
With FG-110 FF you can connect any PLC withModbus/TCP interface to FF-H1 devices for cyclic dataexchange of process data as a FF-Visitor.
You can do this
• To control a separate Modbus/TCP networkdepending on data input from the H1 network
• In parallel to an existing DCS system withoutdisturbing it

FG-110 FF gives you more freedom to add a new subsystem (via PLC and Modbus/TCP) to an existing FF-network without disturbing it and without the need tochange it.
1. PLCs using Modbus-TCP
There are many PLCs with Modbus/TCP interface in themarket
Schneider Electric• Most models of Schneider Quantum, M240, or
new M580 etc..
• FG-110 FF is listed in Collaborative AutomationPartner Program (CAPP).
www.collaborativeautomation.com
• DCS system Plant Struxure officially uses FG-110 FFfor FF-connection.
• “System Technical Note” of Schneider Electric:“How can I connect PlantStruxure to FoundationFieldbus?”This document describes how to connectPlant Struxure to FF via FG-110 FF

1. PLCs using Modbus/TCP
Siemens:Siemens offer a CP343-1 communication module with function block for Modbus/TCPfor their S7-PLCs. There is an official application node from Siemens on this.You will find it on:http://www.industry.siemens.com/services/global/en/IT4Industry/products/simatic_add_ons/s7_open_modbus_tcp/Pages/default_tab.aspx

Modbus - New Possibilities:FIM-110 FF / FG-110 FF is equipped with a RS232 interface.You can connect this RS232 port to a RS485/RS232 converter and from there to a controllerwith a Modbus/RTU interface.This applies to older PLCs from Schneider Electric and older DCS systems from Honeywell.
It makes sense, if you want to add modern FF-H1 devices to an existing DCS.

Via FG-110 FF and Softing´s OPC-Modbus/TCP-Server on a separate PC you can connect anyOPC-Client to H1 networks for cyclic data exchange of process data.
This also works in parallel to a DCS system in your H1 network.

OPC-Easy-Connect• Makes implementation of a distributed network easy• Boost the performance of your network
For the network above we recommend:• OPC-Tunnel: avoids DCOM problems
• OPC-Optimizer: consolidation of Client requests makes server more stableand performant
• OPC2Database: writes OPC-data from the OPC-Server directly into aSQL database
• OPC-Store&Forward: safety storage in case that OPC-Client connection fails
