Chapter 1 Overview of the FP-1300 Network Module
FP-1300 User Manual 1-2 ni.com
A FieldPoint bank consists of at least one network module, and one or more
terminal base, and I/O modules. Each FP-1300 can support up to nine I/O
modules. The maximum number of FP-1300 network modules that you can
install on the CAN network is limited in theory by the number of unique
arbitration IDs on the network. If you use standard arbitration IDs, you can
install up to eight FP-1300 banks on a single network. If you use extended
arbitration IDs, the number of FP-1300 banks you can install on a single
network is system dependent.
The FP-1300 network module connects directly to a high-speed CAN
network. If you are using NI-CAN, you can use the FP-1300 Configuration
Utility to configure the baud rate of the FP-1300 to match the baud rate of
the CAN network. For more information on configuring the baud rate of the
FP-1300, refer to the
FP-1300 Configuration Help . If you are not using
NI-CAN, you cannot use the FP-1300 Configuration Utility and you must
configure the other devices on the CAN network to use the default baud rate
of the FP-1300, which is 500 Kbps. For detailed hardware specifications
and cabling information, refer to Appendix C,
Specifications .
