The document describes the main features of the Honeywell Series C system. It discusses the deliverables in the Series C release, which include the C300 controller, I/O modules, and a new firmware that allows upgrading from an R300 system. It then covers the key attributes of Series C hardware, such as its more efficient and compact design that reduces footprint by up to 30% compared to equivalent systems. New terminology is also introduced, like IOTA, IOTA carrier, and I/O modules. The performance targets of the R300 release are provided.

– No electronic card files
– “Zero Footprint” power system does not impact
module space
– >30% reductions compared to equivalent HPM
• Combines I/O Processor and Field Terminations
into one Assembly
– Fewer components providing higher MTBF
and Availability

Low Level Inputs
• 64 Channel Low Level Multiplexer Analog Input
– Thermocouple (T/C) and RTD
• Initially, the Series C LLMUX will only use the New Solid State FTAs
– Support for FTAs requiring the Power Adapter FTA will be provided in a
subsequent release
• With the new Solid State FTAs:
– OTD before propagation of PV every 1 sec
– Does not require Power Adapter FTA
– Can be used with existing UCN/xPM installations
• With the existing FTAs:
– OTD propagates every 30 sec
• FTAs will require standard FTA Channel and cannot be mounted on
IOTA Carrier

• FTE Bridge, as part of a Series C
system allows:
– A C300 Controller to use selected
Series A chassis I/O (Serial,
DeviceNet, Profibus, and Pulse Input
modules) without the need for a C200
– A C300 to communicate (Exchange
Block peer-to-peer) with Rockwell
devices like PLC5 and CL5550 using
a bridge chassis with a FTEB and
downlink CNI
• The FTEB continues to operate at
10Mbps after updating firmware to
support C300 communication with
Series A Chassis I/O
• C200 with FTEB can be used for
Peer to Peer with a C300 Controller

No. The correct statement is "No C300 controllers are
required, only 24 Series C FIM Modules". Since the
project requires only Fieldbus control strategy the C300
controller is not required. Each FIM Module has 4 FF links
and each link supports 16 FF devices. Hence 1 FIM
module can support a maximum of 64 (16*4) FF devices.
Hence only 24 (1500/64) Series C FIM Modules are
required.

Overview
• C300 controller can now be connected remotely to Series C I/O or PMIO
through the use of an I/O Link Fiber Optic Extender (FOE) module
• Same FOE cannot be used for Series C and PMIO connections,
concurrently
• Each FOE can connect to two remote sites
– Two fiber optic ports sets, FO1 and FO2
– Ports have both receive (Rx) and transmit (Tx)
• Mounting options
– IOTA
– Din Rail
– Stand Alone
• Two types of IOLINK cables
– PMIO
– Series C

C300 Topology Rules – Control Firewall
C300, Series C FIMs must be connected to the
Control Firewall.
The C300 and any FTEBs assigned to it must be on
the same control firewall
No other device, such as FTEB for C200, Ethernet
PLCs, Stations or Servers, can connect to the Control
Firewall

Cable.
Fiber Optic: 2 KM multi mode or 15 KM single mode.
STP cable: CAT 5 up to 100 M
Control Firewalls cannot be cascaded

How Many FTE Nodes Do You Have?
• An FTE Community can have no more than 330 FTE Nodes calculated
as follows:
– Max. 125 Redundant FIMs per Server = 125 x 2 = 250
– Max. 16 Redundant C300s per Server = 16 x 2 = 32
– Max. 40 Stations = 40
– Max. 1 Redundant Server = 2
– Max. 5 ACE = 5
– GRAND TOTAL: 329
• If any FTEBs are present in the Community, the limit is 200 FTE Nodes
• Embedded FTE used in C300 and Series C FIM is at the MAC level, and
therefore “yellow” and “green” have same IP address
• Servers and Workstations require one IP address per NIC port

Summary
• C300 controllers, Series C FIM, and FTEB for Series A IO are connected
to the Control Firewall
• Series C and PM IO are connected to the C300 controller by the two
IOLINKs on C300 Controller IOTA
– Series C and PM IO cannot be mixed on the same IOLINK
• Remote PMIO is implemented using the PM IO Link Extender
• C300 can be associated to Series A IO directly via FTEB only when
Profibus, DeviceNet, Serial Interface and Pulse Input modules are
required
