FloBoss S600+ Hardware

1. Does the new FloBoss S600+ mount in the

panel the same way as the FloBoss S600?

Yes, the new FloBoss S600+ mounts in the panel exactly the

same way as the previous FloBoss S600.

2. How does the new FloBoss S600+ physically

differ from the previous FloBoss S600?

The case (chassis), I/O modules, prover modules, and HART®

modules are unchanged. The most signifi cant difference in

the FloBoss S600+ is the enhanced Central Processing Unit

(CPU) module, which continues to fi t in the FloBoss S600

case. The only difference in physical attributes pertains

to the name; there is now a ‘+’ symbol appended to the

FloBoss S600 name.

3. What is the difference in available Inputs and

Outputs with the new FloBoss S600+?

The new FloBoss S600+ provides additional communication

ports:

Second Ethernet port now provided as standard

Increase in number of serial ports

RS 232 Download Port on front panel (existing)

2 off RS 232 (existing)

3 off RS 422/485 (existing)

4 off RS 485 (additional)

USB port added to rear (additional)

4. Can I still use the optional Ethernet Module

(P190) with the new FloBoss S600+ to give

me two independent Ethernet ports?

No. The FloBoss S600+ CPU module now provides two

independent Ethernet ports, which are full duplex and

support 10 and 100MB/s. This effectively replaces the

Ethernet (P190) module, leaving an additional slot in the

case for more I/O.
