1. Hardware
The FF bus interface has the following data:
U = 9 – 32 V
I = 10 mA (normal operation)
Imax = 13 mA (maximum fault current)
The bus connection is independet from polarity. The bus interface has no explosion proof design. Communication
is only possible, if also the converter part has power supply and is working.
Supply converter bus interface Bus
1.1 Bus termination

In the connection room of the converter housing are two switches. A termination can be connected to the bus by
closing both switches. This should be done only for the last device at the trunk.
Take care to security instructions in the manual when opening the housing!
5
1.2 Hardware switch

Inside of the electronic is a 10 times switch. The switches can be set or reset, when the converter housing is open.
Take care to security instructions in the manual when opening the housing!
The switch setting can be checked on the local display of the device in the submenu data link, menu dip switch
(refer to 5.2.2). It can also be read over FF communication in the Transducer block (index 87)
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
Off
Switch 1 = Simulate Enable

off = Simulation Mode disabled
on = Simulation Mode enabled
The switch position will also be displayed via the resource block within the parameter BLOCK_ERR.
“Simulation Mode enabled” only allows to make a simulation, but don’t activate the simulation. Simulation is
switched on or off within the parameter “Simulate“ (structure on index 9 of AI-block).
Switch 2 = Write Protect

off = Write Protect disabled
on = Write Protect enabled
The switch position will also be displayed via the resource block within the parameter WRITE_LOCK.
Enabling Write Protection prevents writing of block parameters.
The Switches 3 to 10 have no function.

2. Block-Overview
The device contains the following FF-Blocks:
1x Resource Block
2x Transducer Block
3x AI Block (Analog Input)
1x Enhanced PID Block
The resource and analog input blocks are standard FF blocks.
The PID block has three additional parameters compared to a standard PID and is therefor an enhanced block.
The transducer blocks are manufacturer specific and therefor custom blocks.
2.1 Block Table Legend

The below table treats the following attributes:
Index: Index of parameter within a block.
Data-Type: Data type of parameter. Some parameters are structures (DS-xx). These structures
are described in chapter 2.7.
Size: Size of the parameter in Bytes.
Storage Type:
S= Static Parameter are store permanently (non-volatile). When writing a static parameter the
Static Revision Counter ST_REV of the respective block (Index 1 in each block) will be
incremented by one.
N= Non-volatile parameters will be stored permanently. When writing non-volatile para-meters
ST_REV remains unchanged.
D= Dynamic Parameter will be lost during powering off.
Write: Parameter can partially merely be written in certain operating modes (MODE_BLK, Index 5, sub
parameter Target)
OOS: Parameter can be written in Target-Mode „Out of Service“.
Man: Parameter can be written in Target-Mode „Manual“.
Auto: Parameter can be written in Target-Mode „Auto“.
Cas : Parameter can be written in Target-Mode „Cascade”.
RCas: Parameter can be written in Target-Mode „Remote Cascade”.
ROut: Parameter can be written in Target-Mode „Remote Out”.
Default Value: Basic setting of the parameters.

The parameter RESTART (Index 16 within Resource Block), selection „Restart with defaults“,
allows resetting of the resource and function block parameters to default values.

2.3 Analog Input Block
The measurement calculation takes place within the transducer block. The transducer block internally provides the
measurement values via “Channels”. The cyclic output of the measurement values takes place via the analog input
blocks (Al block). The converter disposes of tree Al blocks.

OUT SCALE
FIELD_VAL PV
Alarm:
Hi_Hi

Lo_Lo
Channel: Using the channel parameter (index 15) you can choose the measured value to be transferred from
the transducer block.
Simulate: The simulate parameter is a structure (see 2.7.10). You can activate a simulation by means of the
sub-parameter “Simulate En/Disable”. The sub-parameter “Simulate-Value” indicates the
simulation value, which will be processed instead of the channel value.
Note: The simulation can solely be activated if the hardware switch “Simulation Enable” is set to
“on”, see 1.2.
11
Convert: Converting is determined by the parameters L_TYPE, XD_SCALE and OUT_SCALE.

The scaling structures (see 2.7.3) dispose of the Sub-Parameters EU100%, EU0%, Unit and
Decimal Point.
The channel value will be scaled to a percent value FIELD_VAL using the XD_SCALE according
the following formula :
FIELD_VAL = 100 * (Channel-Value – XD_SCALE.EU0%) /
(XD_SCALE.EU100% – XD_SCALE.EU0%)
L_TYPE can be of the following values:
Direct: With direct the entry value will be directly transferred to PV (Primary Analog Value, index
7). There will be no change of scaling:
PV = Channel Value
Structures XD_SCALE and OUT_SCALE have to be adjusted identically.
Indirect: The percent value FIELD_VAL will be scaled to PV (Primary analog Value) using
OUT_SCALE:
PV = (FIELD_VAL / 100) * (OUT_SCALE.EU100% – OUT_SCALE.EU0%) +
OUT_SCALE.EU0%
Indirect Square Root: Similar to direct. Additionally a roots function will be calculated
PV = sqrt (FIELD_VAL / 100) * (OUT_SCALE.EU100% – OUT_SCALE.EU0%) +
OUT_SCALE.EU0%
Cut off: This function is equivalent to a low flow cut-off. It will be activated via a bit in IO_OPTS (index 13).
If the PV value calculated undershoot the LOW_CUT value (index 17), PV will be set to 0.
Filter: Using the parameter PV_FTIME (index 18) you may set a damping time expressed in seconds.
Alarm: Four different alarms are available: Hi_Hi, Hi, Lo and Lo_Lo. For each of these alarms, the
threshold …_LIM and the priority …_PRI can be set (index 25 to 32).
A detected will be entered into a structure …_ALM (index 33 to 36).

2.4 PID Block

The PID block offers all functions for a proportional, integral and derivate control algorithm. He also has functions
for scaling, limiting, alarm handling, tracking, a feed forward algorithm, etc.

TRK_SCALE
The process value to be controlled is connected to the IN input. The value will be scaled with PV_SCALE and
filtered by a filter with time constant PV_FTIME. The scaled and filtered value is called PV (Primary analog Value).
The setpoint source is determined by the mode:
AUTO mode: The SP parameter is used as setpoint.
CAS mode: In Cascade mode is CAS_IN input used as setpoint. This parameter comes from another
function block.
RCAS mode: In Remote Cascade mode is the RCAS_IN-parameter used as setpoint. This parameter is
written by a supervisory host computer.
The setpoint value is limited by SP_HI_LIM and SP_LO_LIM. The setpoint ramp rate is limited (only in AUTO
mode) by SP_RATE_DN and SP_RATE_UP. The limited setpoint is called RCAS_OUT. This value will be used by
supervisory host computers in RCAS mode.
16
The PID algorithm has tree parts:
Proportional control: The OUT value is proportional to the deviation of process value and setpoint. The
proportional factor is the GAIN parameter. The disadvantage of a proportional control is,
that there is a remaining deviation. This deviation can be removed by an integral control.
Integral control: The integral OUT value is determined by the integration of the deviation. The time constant
is the RESET parameter.
Derivate control: The derivate OUT value is determined by the changing rate of the deviation. The time
constant is the RATE parameter.
The OUT value of the PID algorithm is the sum of all tree control parts.
Feed forward calculation can be done with the input FF_VAL and the parameters FF_SCALE and FF_GAIN.
Tracking can be done with the input TRK_VAL. This value is scaled by TRK_SCALE. To enable tracking, set in
CONTROL_OPTS „Track enable“ or „Track in Manual“. Then switch on tracking in TRK_IN_D. The actual mode will
change to LO (Local Overwrite).

2.4.5 Example for PID control
2.4.5.1 Constant setpoint

The flow in a pipe should be controlled by a positioner. The setpoint is constant.
Flowmeter Positioner
AI PID AO
The process value is measured by a flow meter. The flow value is available as AI block. The constant setpoint is in
the SP parameter inside PID block. The OUT value is send to an AO block of a positioner. It is necessary to make
a back calculation connection from AO back to PID to get bumbles mode switching. The mode of the PID block is
AUTO.

2.4.5.3 Cascade PID blocks

It is possible to cascade PID blocks. This example has an inner control loop with PID2, which gets the process
value from AI3 and the setpoint from PID1. The outer control loop with PID1 gets the process Value from AI2 and
the setpoint from AI1. Both PID’s are in cascade mode. Both PID’s need back calculation paths for bumbles mode
switching.

2.5 Transducer Block

The Transducer Block contains all instrument specific parameters and functions needed for flow measurement and
calculation.
2.5.1 Channels und Units

The transducer block within the FSM4000 provides four measurements in so-called channels. Each AI block
disposes of one channel parameter (index 15). This so-called channel parameter decides which channel will be
transferred from the TB to the AI. Each channel disposes of one physical unit. This unit has to comply with the XD-
scale-unit of the AI blocks. Should it fail to do so, the AI block cannot be set to auto-mode.
Channel 1: PRIMARY_VALUE (Index 14) = Flow value

Unit: PRIMARY_VALUE_RANGE (Index 15, equal to index 37: Unit Qmax)
Channel 2 : SECONDARY_VALUE (Index 28) = Totalizer >F

Channel 3: THIRD_VALUE (Index 30) = Totalizer <R
Channel 4: FOURTH_VALUE (Index 31) = Diff. Totalizer
Unit: SECONDARY_VALUE_UNIT (Index 29, equal to index 38: Unit Totalizer)
Information: The FSM4000 has no integrator function blocks. Instead the flow meter internal totalizers are mapped
into the transducer block and can be used by the AI blocks.

2.6.2 Limits for Diagnosis Measurement Values

For every diagnosis measurement value it is possible to set a lower and upper limit and to set the reporting
behaviour, if the value exceeds the limits: No report, a warning or error message. A warning will set the
corresponding bit in the warning register, an error sets a bit in the error register. These bits are reset, if the
measurment value goes back inside the limits.

2.6.3 Diagnosis Block Error Message Chains
The diagram on the following page shows the way of diagnosis messages from the Diagnosis block to the Fieldbus:
If at least one bit in the Diagnosis Error Register (Diagnosis Block Index 45) is set, this will set the Diagnosis-
Bit 10 in the Error Register (Transducer Block Index 91).
The Transducer Block has a Mask for the Error Register (Index 95). This mask enables or disables copying of
the “Error Register” Bits to the “Masked Error Register” bits, refer to chapter 3.
If the Diagnosis Bit is set in the “Masked Error Register”, this will be reported as „BAD, Sensor failure“ in the
status of the Transducer Block Output Values.
The Transducer Block Output Values are read by the AI Blocks. The AI Block output values can be read with
cyclic communication.
A similar chain exists for warning messages. A warning will be reported as “UNCERTAIN, sensor conversion not
accurate” in the status of the Transducer Block Output Values.
Factory settings are:

All Diagnosis Block monitoring reports (refer to 2.6.2) are switched off.
The “mask for the error register” (Transducer Block Index 95) allows copying of all error bits.
The “mask for the warning register” (Transducer Block Index 96) allows only copying of warnings 1, 15 and 16.
With these factory settings no diagnosis message will be reported to the fieldbus. To get diagnosis messages it is
sufficient to enable a message reporting inside the Diagnosis Block.
BLOCK_ERR (Diagnose Block Index 6):

If at least one bit in the Diagnosis Error Register (Diagnosis Block Index 45) is set, this will set Bit 7 = Input
Failure in the BLOCK_ERR parameter of the Diagnosis Block.

3. Error and warning handling

The device has two error registers: The „actual error register“ (Transducer block index 91) shows errors, which are
active in this moment. The “History of error register” (index 93) shows errors, which were set in the past tense or
present. For warnings there is the same: One register shows actual warnings (index 92), another shows the history
of the warnings (index 94). The history registers can be cleared.
The history is only for information. The actual errors and warnings are important:
They are show on the local display of the device and they determins the reaction of the device.
The actual registers are masked with index 95: mask for error register and index 96: mask for warning
register. The result is written into index 97: masked error register and index 98: masked warning register.
The masks makes it possible to determine, which bits should be be used and which bits should be
suppressed.
These masked registers are important for the fieldbus: They determine the status of the Transducerblock
output values (refer to 3.5). This status goes to the function blocks and determins the function block
reaction and function block output values.
For testing it is possible to simulate errors and warnings. To do this switch on the simulation (index 99) and write
the simulation values (index 100 and 101). Then this simulated errors and warnings will be used for the actual error
and warning register instead of the real error and warning reasons. It is also possible do do this simulation on the
local display and keyboard (refer to 5.3.1).

4. Start-Up
This manual is set out to provide a description of the device setup using National Instruments Fieldbus Configurator
V3.1.
In addition to the instrument, you will require the actual instrument-describing files for FSM4000 (000320/0017).
The version for software C.10 are:
0201.ffo
0201.sym
020101.cff
These files will be delivered along with the instrument. They can likewise be obtained via the Fieldbus Foundation
Homepage www.fieldbus.org.
4.1 NI-Interface Configuration Utility

Initially, please, start the National Instruments Program “Interface Configuration Utility”. Neither the NI-FBUS
Configurator nor the NI-FBUS program may be activated. Click on “Import DD/CFF” and install the device
description files.
At Port Edit Advanced is the “Advanced Stack Configuration”. With the button „FF Default“ you get the following
FF default settings:
64
4.2 Verify Hardware switch

Please check on device, whether or not the hardware switch 2 is set to off. Should this not be the case, please
change the setting to off (also feasible during instrument operation, refer to 1.2).
4.3 Connection Establishment

Please start the National Instruments© NI-FBUS Configurator. Subsequent to the connection establishment, the
following message should appear:
This is the identifier (ID) structure:

000320 = manufacturer code ABB, hex
0017 = Device Type Code FSM4000, hex
_FSM4000_ = Device-name
12345 = serial umber of instrument expressed as 5-digit decimal figure
65
4.4 Blocks Out of Service

Prior to configuring the instrument, please verify whether all blocks are “out of service” . Verification can be done by
opening (double click) the block display for each block:
If necessary, please set blocks to “out of service”.

NOTE: Both Target Mode and Actual mode have to be set to “OOS”.
4.5 Instrument and Block Tags

Please choose a PD-Tag (Physical device tag). To do so, please click on “FI000” using the right mouse button.
Using SET TAG, please enter a denomination for the respective instrument. Repeat this procedure to choose tags
for the blocks (RB2, FC, AI1, AI2, AI3, PID).
4.6 Resource Block

In general, no settings have to be adjusted within the resource block. Please, set the block to “Auto”.
4.7 Transducer Block

The transducer block contains all instrument specific parameters of the flow converter. If necessary make your
parameter settings. Then please set the block to “Auto”.
66
4.8 Analog Input Block

Next you have to determine the unit handling. The measurements will be calculated within the transducer block and
provided by the channels. Each channel disposes of different units (see 2.5.1). Within the AI block this value can
merely be transferred (L_TYPE =direct) or the scale can be changed to another unit (L_TYPE =indirect).
4.8.1 Unit with L_TYPE =Direct

Should within the AI block the L_TYPE (Index 16) be set to “Direct” will the structures XD_SCALE and
OUT_SCALE need to be set up identically. The entry value will be directly transferred to OUT. The XD scale unit
has to be identical with the channel unit.
Example:
The flow value shall be indicated in m3/h. Thus, please :
Within the transducer block (Index 48) set “Range unit” to m3/h. Thus this unit displays the channel 1 value.
Set the L_TYPE within the AI-Block “Direct”.
Set the channel within the AI block to 1 in order to choose flow value (see 2.5.1).
Within the AI block, please set the units XD_SCALE and OUT_SCALE likewise to m3/h.
Recommendation (not necessary): set 100%-value in XD_SCALE and OUT_SCALE to the Range value
(Transducer-Block Index 39).
All values in XD- and OUT_SCALE have to be adjusted identically.
Set AI block to “Auto”.
Transducer Block Analog Input Block
XD_SCALE: FIELD_VAL OUT_SCALE: OUT

Channel 1: 50
100% : 100 50% 100% : 100 50
0% : 0 0% : 0 (m3/h)
Unit : m3/h Unit : m3/h
DecPnt: 2 DecPnt: 2
Range Unit: m3/h L_Type: direct
Channel: 1
Using automatic operation mode the channel 1 value (see above example: “50”) will automatically transferred
through the AI block and then be displayed as OUT value “50”.
FIELD_VAL indicates the measurement in input-(XD)-scaling expressed in percent, in this case “50”.
Info: Both the 100% and the 0% values in the XD and OUT scale do not have to be identical with the real
measuring ranges of the converter. Both values do in no way represent any limit. Using the AI block you
can always enter measuring values differing from the indicated measuring range. E.g.: Taking the above
example it would be feasible to enter a measuring value of 200 m3/h without having to fear difficulties
during processing. FIELD_VAL would than amount to 200%.
Yet, it is recommended to adjust the AI scaling to the real measurement range. Thereto you have to either
enter the Cal factor (TB index 38) or Range value (TB index 39). The 0% value is 0. In that case the
FIELD_VAL will be indicated as a percentage of the real flow.
NOTE: Should alarms be used, the scaling of XD- and OUT_SCALE has to comply with the real measurement
range.
67
4.8.2 Unit with L_TYPE=Indirect

Should within the AI block the L_TYPE (index 16) be set to „indirect“, a change of scale as to the measured within
the AI block will be done. Using the XD_SCALE the channel value will be set to percent (= FIELD_VAL). Using the
OUT_SCALE structure, the percent value will be scaled to OUT value. The XD scale unit has to be identical with
the channel unit.
Thus a change of scaling to any suitable unit available with Foundation Fieldbus becomes feasible.
Example:
The flow value shall be displayed in ML/d (MegaLiter/Day. For this purpose, the conversion factor has to be known:
100 m3/h = 2400 m3/d = 2,400,000 L/d = 2.4 ML/d
Settings:
Set “Range unit” (index 48) within transducer block to m3/h. Thus the channel 1 value will be displayed in this
unit.
Set L_TYPE within AI block to indirect.
Set Channel within AI block to 1 as to choose flow value (see 2.5.1).
Set XD_SCALE within AI block to 0 to 100 m3/h. The unit has to comply with the channel unit.
Set OUT_SCALE within AI block to 0 to 2.4 ML/d.
Set AI block to “auto".
Transducer Block Analog Input Block
XD_SCALE: FIELD_VAL OUT_SCALE: OUT

Channel 1: 50
100% : 100 50% 100% : 2,4 1,2
0% : 0 0% : 0 (ML/d)
Unit : m3/h Unit : ML/d
DecPnt: 2 DecPnt: 2
Range unit: m3/h
L_Type: indirect
Channel: 1
Using the XD scaling, the channel 1 value („50“ in this example) will then be automatically set to 50(%)
Info: As is the case with L_TYPE = „direct“ the range of scaling does not necessarily have to be identical with
the measurement range of the instrument. You could also scale the instrument to, say, 0-1000 m3/h to 0-24
ML/d or even 0-1 m3/h to 0-0.024 ML/d. The percent value FIELD_VAL would then differ considerably,
depending on the scaling chosen.
Should you want the percent value FIELD_VAL to be displayed as a percent value off the real flow, the
scaling range has to correspond to the real measurement range, i.e. to the Cal factor or Range value.
Example:
Range = 6 m3/h = 6*0.024 ML/d = 0.144 ML/d
In this case you would have to enter 0-6 m3/h with XD_SCALE and 0-0.144 ML/d with OUT_SCALE. Then
FIELD_VAL will show a percentage of Range, i.e. the real flow.
The alarm hysteresis ALARM_HYS (AI index 24) represents a percentage referring to OUT_SCALE.
Note: When using alarms OUT_SCALE has to correspond to the real measurement range.
68
Warning: With L_TYPE „indirect“ the converter does not verify scaling and unit of OUT_SCALE
It is feasible to choose any sensible or insensible units. The above example could for example
also be scaled at 0-100 m3/h to 0-100 kg/h, which, under certain circumstances could well be
considered sensible. Yet, the scaling could also be set at 0-100 m3/h to 0-100 Celsius, which, of
course, makes no sense at all.
There is, of course, always a risk of faulty scaling. You could, e.g., set a scaling of 0-100m3/h to
0-100 ML/d, which would be incorrect.
This behaviour refers to the Foundation Fieldbus AI blocks. The operator takes the responsibility
of correctly setting the scale.
4.8.3 Summary, AI block settings

Minimum settings:
Valid channel
L_TYPE: direct or indirect

The following error messages can appear while writing a parameter within the NI Configurator:
Write is prohibited (Error code 40)

Check whether the write protect switch is deactivated (see 1.2). This can be checked at the device (switch
position) or using the WRITE_LOCK parameter (to be found within the NI Configurator in the resource
block window below the strap “options”).
Wrong Mode for Request (Error code 39)

Some parameters can merely be written if the target mode is set to „Out of Service“. Other parameters can
also be written in “Man” and still others can be written in each of the target modes. For more detailed
information, see block description.
Exceed Limit (Error code 38)

It was attempted to write a value exceeding the permitted limits of a parameter. Refer to the parameter
description to learn which limits and values respectively are permitted.
76
4.16.2 AI Block cannot be set to AUTO
The Auto mode of an AI block requires the following :

1. The resource block has to be set to auto. No other pre-conditions.
2. Within the AI block a valid channel has to be entered.
3. L_Type has to be set to direct or indirect (indirect square root is likewise possible, yet not sensible).
4. XD-SCALE unit has to be idential with channel unit (see also 2.5.1).
5. With L_Type „Direct” the XD_SCALE and OUT_SCALE structures have to be identical.
6. The PERIOD_OF_EXECUTION of the AI block has to be of a value other than 0.
Should these conditions be met and the target mode be set to auto, will the actual mode and thus the block itself be
set to auto.
Whether these conditions are met or not can be taken from the parameter BLOCK_ERR (within the NI Configurator
in the AI window below the strap diagnostics). Should the Block Configuration Error appear, please check which of
the above mentioned conditions has not been met.
It the PD Tag of the device or Block Tags are changed behind a download of a schedule, blocks may also not be
able to go to auto mode, altough above conditons are fulfilled. In this case make a new download with the new tags
inside.
4.16.3 PID Block cannot be set to AUTO
The Auto mode of a PID block requires the following conditions:

1. The resource block has to be set to auto. No other pre-conditions.
2. Bypass must not be set to default value „uninitialized“.
3. Shed_Opt must not be set to default value „uninitialized“.
4. Gain and SP have to be set.
5. The PERIOD_OF_EXECUTION of the PID block has to be of a value other than 0.
