FloBoss 107 Instruction Manual

General Information
Revised June-2017
ROC protocol supports serial communications to local or remote devices,
such as a host computer.
An FB107 can act as a Modbus host or slave device using either Remote
Terminal Unit (RTU) or American Standard Code for Information
Interchange (ASCII) modes. This allows you to easily integrate the
FB107 into other systems. Extensions to the Modbus protocol allow the
retrieval of history, event, and alarm data in Electronic Flow Metering
(EFM) Measurement applications.
Notes
:
The LOI port only supports ROC or Modbus slave protocols.
The FB107 auto-detects either ROC or Modbus slave protocol
messages on all comm ports. To enable Modbus host on a particular
comm port, you must select Modbus host as the port owner. As a
Modbus host, the comm port then
does not
support ROC protocol
messages.
1.4.13 User C Programs
Optionally, you can order custom application programs developed in User
C to provide functionality not included in the firmware, such as
calculations for steam and custom communication drivers. Examples of
custom User C programs include:
Flow calculation.
Properties calculations.
Communications programs.
Special applications.
You can transfer licenses for User C programs to the FB107 using
ROCLINK 800’s License Key Administrator function (
Utilities
>
License Key Administrator
).

ROCLINK
™
800 Configuration Software
ROCLINK 800 Configuration software is a Microsoft
®
Windows
-based
program that runs on a PC and enables you to monitor, configure, and
calibrate the FB107.
Many of the configuration screens, such as meters, I/O, and PIDs, are
available while ROCLINK 800 is off-line. This enables you to configure
the system while either on-line or off-line with the FB107.
The Local Operator Interface (LOI local port) provides a direct link
between the FB107 and a PC. The LOI port uses a DB9 connector with
standard EIA-232 (RS-232C) pinout. With a personal computer running
ROCLINK 800, you can locally configure the FB107, extract data, and
monitor its operation.
