Softing Industrial
Integration of Foundation Fieldbus in Modbus systems
Softing Industrial has released version V1.21 of the 'FG-200' gateway. It connects Foundation Fieldbus H1 (FF H1) field devices with Ethernet-based control and asset management systems.
The FG-200, a gateway for integrating FF H1 field devices, was specially developed for use in process automation. It enables the connection of up to four FF H1 segments to small to medium-sized control systems via Modbus TCP or FF HSE. In addition, it supports advanced asset management so that tools such as the 'Emerson AMS Device Manager' and FDT-based applications can be used in parallel.
New features of version V1.21 include, for example, optimized communication stability, with the revised hardware ensuring even more reliable data transmission even in environments prone to interference, according to Softing. Bug fixes in the new version have also further improved reliability and user-friendliness. The gateway is suitable as a solution for system integrators and plant operators in process automation, particularly in the oil and gas industry.
