FieldPoint Operating Instructions
FP-TB-10
Terminal Base and Dual-Channel
FieldPoint Modules
These operating instructions describe the installation, features, and
characteristics of the FP-TB-10 terminal base and of the various
dual-channel modules that work with it. For details on configuring
and accessing these modules over a network, refer to the user
manual for the particular FieldPoint network module you are using
with the dual-channel system.
Features
The FP-TB-10 and the dual-channel FieldPoint modules have the
following features:
•
High granularity of system design with up to six dual-channel
I/O modules per terminal base
•
Any combination of I/O types in each terminal base
•
Independent isolation of each dual-channel I/O module
FieldPoint dual-channel I/O modules offer maximum flexibility in
configuring I/O systems. You can mount up to six dual-channel
modules in any combination on the FP-TB-10 terminal base. You
can mix dual-channel modules with standard eight- and 16-channel
modules in a single FieldPoint bank. Therefore, you can configure
your FieldPoint system to match your specific I/O needs,
minimizing the size and cost of your distributed I/O system. In
addition, the dual-channel modules provide a flexible solution for
applications requiring channel-to-channel isolation.

FP-TB-10 Operating Instructions
Install the network module first, using two bolts or screws,
then install the FP-TB-10 using the right bolt tab. If you use a
FieldPoint bus extender cable, the first FP-TB-10 on the new
row should use both panel-mount bolt tabs.
Installing Dual-Channel I/O Modules
You can install up to six dual-channel modules on each FP-TB-10
terminal base. You can use any combination of modules in any
order on the terminal base.
To install a dual-channel module on an FP-TB-10, snap the module
onto the terminal base while squeezing the legs of the module
inward. Install the modules with the colored label oriented toward
the top. Make sure that both legs of the module snap securely into
place.

To remove a dual-channel module, squeeze the legs of the module
together to unlock, then pull from the terminal base.
Hot Plug-and-Play Live Insertion and Swapping
of Modules
You can install modules while the network module is powered and
in operation. Replacing any dual-channel module with another
dual-channel module of the same type will not interrupt the
FieldPoint system’s operation, but while a module is missing,
it will be reported as having a bad status. The new dual-channel
module will be automatically configured with the same settings as
the previous module, and if it is an output module, the output value
will be automatically updated. However, if you replace a module
FP-TB-10 Operating Instructions

ni.com
with a module of a different type, the FP-TB-10 will reset itself and
all six of its modules and will request new initial configuration
settings from the network module.
Field Wiring
The FP-TB-10 has four screw-terminal connections for each of the
six dual-channel modules. These four connections are labeled 1a
and 1b for channel 1, and 2a and 2b for channel 2. The signal
connections for each of the different I/O modules are listed in these
instructions and are also printed on the sides of each of the I/O
modules. In addition to these terminals are six pairs of terminals
labeled V and C. These V and C terminals are not directly
connected to the dual-channel modules, but all of the V terminals
are connected together and all of the C terminals are connected
together. You can use these terminals to connect external power
supplies to the dual-channel modules or to send power to field
devices, but you do not need to connect anything to the V and
C terminals in order to use the dual-channel modules.

FP-TB-10 Operating Instructions
Some dual-channel modules, such as the thermocouple and
four-wire RTD modules, provide other means of making
field-wiring connections.
Update Rates
The FP-TB-10 continuously scans through its six dual-channel
modules, updating outputs and reading inputs. The scan rate varies
depending on the modules in the FP-TB-10. Empty slots and
digital modules add 0.2 ms each to the scan time, and analog
modules add 1.5 ms each. The sum of these six times is the total
scan time. For example, an FP-TB-10 with two FP-AI-C020
modules, one FP-DI-DC, and three empty slots has a total scan
time of 3.8 ms (4 × 0.2 ms + 2 × 1.5 ms).
Each I/O module makes data available to or reads data from the
network module once per scan time. However, the network module
makes data available to and receives data from the network at rates
that are independent of the operation of the FP-TB-10 and the
dual-channel modules. Refer to the network module user manual
for more details on the operation and throughput of your particular
network.
Power Requirement (P+)
The FP-TB-10 and the dual-channel modules are powered through
the local backplane bus from the FieldPoint network module. An
FP-TB-10 with I/O modules may require more than the nominal
power allocated to an I/O module from the network module. In
some applications, this power requirement could limit the number
of I/O modules that you can connect to a single network module.
When defining a FieldPoint system that uses an FP-TB-10,
calculate the total power consumption of the FP-TB-10 with its
dual-channel modules, as well as the power consumption of the
other I/O modules in the system. The total power consumption
of all these modules must be less than 9 W. The FP-TB-10 alone
requires 0.20 W of power; add to this the individual power
requirements of the dual-channel modules given in the
Specifications section.
For example, an FP-TB-10 with three FP-AO-C020 dual-channel
modules and two FP-AI-C020 dual-channel modules requires
4.25 W of power (0.20 W + 3 × 1.1 W + 2 × 0.375 W). A bank
of FieldPoint modules including two such FP-TB-10 bases uses
8.5 W of power—nearly the entire 9 W limit.

Dual-Channel I/O Modules
Dual-channel I/O modules are available for current and voltage
input and output, thermocouple and RTD input, and discrete input
and output. This section describes the different modules and shows
how to connect external circuits to them.
Analog Current Input Modules
(FP-AI-C020 and FP-AI-C420)
The FP-AI-C020 and the FP-AI-C420 are dual-channel current
input modules that provide 12-bit-resolution measurements. Each
channel has a programmable filter with two settings, 20 Hz
bandwidth and 100 Hz bandwidth. Each channel has 133 Ω input
impedance. On the FP-AI-C020, the two channels share a common
reference point (the “b” terminals). On the FP-AI-C420, there is
400 kΩ of resistance between 1b and 2b. Wire field devices so that
current flows into the “a” terminals and out of the “b” terminals.
You can use the V and C terminals to connect loop power supplies
and current transmitters.
If your application requires channel-to-channel
isolation, use only one channel of each module.

The FP-AI-V50m, FP-AI-V100m, FP-AI-V1, FP-AI-V5,
FP-AI-V5B, FP-AI-V10, and FP-AI-V10B are dual-channel
analog voltage input modules that provide 12-bit-resolution
measurements. Each channel has a programmable filter with two
settings, 20 Hz bandwidth and 2 kHz bandwidth. The two channels
share a common reference point, the “b” terminals. The “a”
terminal for each channel is the positive input.
If your application requires channel-to-channel
isolation, use only one channel of each module.

(FP-TC-J, FP-TC-K, and FP-TC-T)
The FP-TC-J, FP-TC-K, and FP-TC-T are dual-channel input
modules for J-, K-, and T-type thermocouples, respectively. These
modules provide 12-bit-resolution measurements, and each
channel can be programmed for either the °C or the °F scale. These
modules do not use the screw terminals of the FP-TB-10. Wire
your thermocouple signals to the thermocouple connectors on the
top of the module.
If your application requires channel-to-channel
isolation, use only one channel of each module.

RTD Input Modules (FP-RTD-PT100,
FP-RTD-PT100-3, and FP-RTD-PT100-4)
The FP-RTD-PT100, FP-RTD-PT100-3, and FP-RTD-PT100-4
are dual-channel input modules for two-, three-, and four-wire
100 Ω platinum RTDs respectively. They provide 12-bit-resolution
measurements. Each module is designed with the linearization
curves of a DIN 43760 standard RTD (α = 0.00385). Each channel
can be programmed for either the °C or the °F scale.
If your application requires channel-to-channel
isolation, use only one channel of each module.
Note
The FP-RTD-PT100 connects to two FP-TB-10 screw terminals
per channel. The “b” terminal is common for both channels. The

Analog Current Output Modules
(FP-AO-C020, FP-AO-C420, and FP-AO-C024)
The FP-AO-C020, FP-AO-C420, and FP-AO-C024 are
dual-channel current output modules that provide 12-bit-resolution
outputs. All three modules have internal loop power supplies that
can drive loads of up to 500 Ω. Wire your field devices so that
current flows out of the “a” terminals and returns through the “b”
terminals.
The “a” terminals serve as a common reference
point for the two channels, so if your application requires
channel-to-channel isolation, use only one channel of
each module.

The FP-AO-V5, FP-AO-V5B, FP-AO-V10, and FP-AO-V10B
are dual-channel analog voltage output modules that provide
12-bit-resolution measurements. The power supplies in these
modules can drive loads with up to 20 mA of current; however,
each channel has 10 Ω output impedance, which adds 10 mV of
error for each milliampere that the channel is required to supply.
The “b” terminals serve as a common reference
point for the two channels, so if your application requires
channel-to-channel isolation, use only one channel of
each module.

Discrete Input Modules (FP-DI-DC,
FP-DI-AC120, and FP-DI-AC240)
The FP-DI-DC, FP-DI-AC120, and FP-DI-AC240 are discrete
input modules. Each module has two isolated channels, so
applications requiring channel-to-channel isolation can use both
channels on each module. Each module has two green indicator
LEDs, one for each channel, to indicate whether the channel is in
the ON or the OFF state. A channel is in the ON state when a
voltage above the threshold is present between the “a” and “b”
terminals. Because each channel of the DC input modules is

isolated, each can be used with either sinking or sourcing devices.
If you do not need channel-to-channel isolation, you can use the V
and C terminals to bus-connect power supplies for discrete-output
field devices.

Discrete Output Modules
(FP-DO-DC60, FP-DO-DC200,
FP-DO-AC120, and FP-DO-AC240)
The FP-DO-DC60, FP-DO-DC200, FP-DO-AC120, and
FP-DO-AC240 are discrete output modules. Each module
has two isolated channels, so applications requiring
channel-to-channel isolation can use both channels on each
module. Each module has two green indicator LEDs, one for each
channel, to indicate whether the channel is in the ON or the OFF
state. Each module also has two replaceable fuses—one for each
channel. The amount of current that each channel can drive without
exceeding temperature specifications depends on the ambient
temperature and the module type—see the Specifications section
for more details. Because each channel of the DC output modules
is isolated, each can be used with either sinking or sourcing
devices. These modules sink current into the “a” terminals and
source current out of the “b” terminals. The following figures show
examples of this wiring. The AC output modules have
zero-crossing triac-style outputs that turn on as the voltage crosses
zero and turn off as the current crosses zero. If your application
does not require channel-to-channel isolation, you can use the V
and C terminals on the FP-TB-10 to bus-connect power supplies
for your loads.

Isolation and Safety Guidelines
Read the following information before
attempting to connect the FP-TB-10 to any circuits that
may contain hazardous voltages.
Caution
This section describes the isolation of the FP-TB-10 and its
compliance with international safety standards. The field wiring
connections are isolated from the backplane and the inter-module
communication bus. The isolation is provided by the module,
which has optical and galvanic isolation barriers designed and
tested to protect against transient fault voltages of up to 2,500 Vrms.
The FP-TB-10 provides double insulation (compliant with
IEC 61010-1) for working common-mode voltages of 250 Vrms.
Safety standards (such as those published by UL and IEC) require
the use of double insulation between hazardous voltages and any
human-accessible parts or circuits.
© National Instruments Corp.
15
FP-TB-10 Operating Instructions
Never try to use any isolation product between human-accessible
parts (such as DIN rails or monitoring stations) and circuits that
can be at hazardous potentials under normal conditions, unless the
product is specifically designed for such an application, as is the
FP-TB-10.
Even though the FP-TB-10 is designed to handle applications with
hazardous potentials, follow these guidelines to ensure a safe total
system:
•
The FP-TB-10 has a safety isolation barrier between the
I/O channels and the inter-module communication bus. There
is no isolation between channels unless otherwise noted. If any
of the channels on a module are wired at a hazardous potential,
make sure that all other devices or circuits connected to that
module are properly insulated from human contact.
•
Do not share the external supply voltages (V and C on the
terminal base) with other devices (including other FieldPoint
devices), unless those devices are isolated from human contact.
•
As with any hazardous voltage wiring, make sure that all
wiring and connections meet applicable electrical codes and
commonsense practices. Mount terminal bases in an area,
position, or cabinet that prevents accidental or unauthorized
access to wiring that carries hazardous voltages.
•
The isolation of the FP-TB-10 is certified as double-insulated
for normal operating voltages of 250 Vrms. Do not use the
FP-TB-10 as the only isolating barrier between human contact
and working voltages of more than 250 Vrms.
•
Operate the FP-TB-10 only at or below pollution degree 2.
Pollution degree 2 means that only nonconductive pollution
occurs in most cases. Occasionally, however, a temporary
conductivity caused by condensation must be expected.
•
Do not operate FieldPoint products in an explosive atmosphere
or where there may be flammable gases or fumes. If you need
to operate FieldPoint products in such an environment, the
FieldPoint products must be in a suitably rated enclosure.
•
Operate the FP-TB-10 at or below Installation Category II.
Installation Category II is for measurements performed on
circuits directly connected to the low-voltage installation.
This category refers to local-level distribution, such as that
provided by a standard wall outlet.
