Err, that should read, " The version of the document on my FoxDoc CD is
Revision C and it lacks sizing information"
I should proofread my stuff. :-(

The document B0193MK Rev D has sizing information. I'll send Chad a
copy.
The version of the document on my FoxDoc CD is Revision D and it
lacks
sizing information.
Basically, it is about as fast as a CP-10 and can hold more blocks.
The Rev D document says that it can handle only 300 outgoing points.
I
believe that this is a typographical error and that the number
should be
3000, but I'm checking on it.
The AB interface options are:
* Micro-I/A
* over Ethernet
* over AB-DH
* DI-30 (FT or non-FT) over AB-DH
* AW-I over Ethernet
* AB Station (Co-Processor board installed in the PLC/5)
For points per dollar, you should look at Micro-I/A. It is faster
than the
DI for data transfer and has more RAM.
For a small and inexpensive total solution, the AW-I is appropriate.
For a system with redundancy requirements, use the DI.
There are lots of other points to ponder, but this is a summary.

Subject: ACM Module
Does anyone on the list have any experience using the
Triconex/Foxboro ACM
module to pass data between the Triconex TMR PLC and a
Foxboro
system? We
are trying to get some specific information on the module
(i.e.
throughput,
configuration etc..) prior to deciding to buy and install
one. We
haven't
really found what we are looking for in Foxdocs. Does
anyone (Alex)
know if
there is a document available for that module similar to
what is
available
for the Allen Bradley Station?
