Overview
The Foxboro FBM217 P0914TR Discrete Input Module provides 32 input channels for 2-wire DC voltage sensors. Moreover, it supports multiple voltages, including 15–60 V DC, 120 V AC/125 V DC, and 240 V AC, making it highly versatile. In addition, the module operates as a standalone or redundant unit, where both modules validate inputs and select the highest-quality signal, ensuring uninterrupted system operation.
Functional Highlights
This module delivers high reliability in critical industrial environments. Furthermore, its compact ABS design allows installation in tight spaces and provides resistance against harsh conditions. Visual indicators include red/green module status LEDs and 32 blue input channel LEDs for easy monitoring. Moreover, the configurable filter time of up to 32 milliseconds adapts to various signal types, while the failsafe configuration ensures safe operation during faults.

System Integration
The FBM217 P0914TR integrates seamlessly with FCP or ZCP control systems. In addition, termination assemblies (TAs) provide flexible field signal connections, optical isolation, and high-voltage attenuation. Furthermore, the module supports Sequence of Events (SOE) recording, capturing time-stamped events down to 1 millisecond, optionally synchronized via GPS for multi-processor systems. Therefore, it ensures reliable digital input monitoring and system-wide consistency.
