I did some more checking. I think the FD block family is there, but I know
that no gateways were released that would require use it.

Subject: RE: FDSCAN & MDSCAN
I own a Micro I/A, but I've never set it up. I got it "free" when I
bought
an AW for my lab once upon a time.
I'm pretty sure that the MDSCAN can show up in the Micro I/A since
Micro I/A
supports Modbus.
It may well be that the FDSCAN can be placed in a Micro I/A, but to
use it
would require a driver from Ken Gunston's group and I'm pretty sure
that no
one have ever built such a driver for Micro I/A. (I have been wrong
before.)
