FFblue Bluetooth modem
The FFblue Bluetooth modem is an interface for temporary connection to a FOUNDATION fieldbus
H1 segment. Field Xpert and the modem communicate with each other via Bluetooth, with the
modem connected via cable to the H1 network.
The FFblue Bluetooth modem incorporates a Class 2 Bluetooth radio with a range of up to
10 meters. The Field Xpert is equipped with a Class 2 Bluetooth adapter, which limits the range to
maximum 10 meters, see also Chapter 4.1.7.
Notice!
• The modem is certified for use in hazardous areas, Zone 1. Once a modem has been used in a
non-Ex installation, it should never be used in an Ex installation, as there is a danger that the
protective circuits have been inadvertently overloaded and no longer function correctly.
