Features:

  • Interface Between External Communication Networks and Controller Chassis Backplane
  • Combines Capability of Ethernet and Serial Communication with External Device Support
  • Operates in Conjunction with Experion™ PKS and Safety Builder
The FC-USI-0001 V1.3 operates as the Universal Communication Interface in a Controller chassis, providing reliable Ethernet and Serial communication to all modules within the system. It continuously handles data exchange between external devices (Experion™ PKS via Ethernet, Safety Builder via Serial) and distributes communication signals through the rack backplane to support steady state operation of all monitors and modules. Seamless communication transfer is standard with the FC-USI-0001 V1.3, ensuring uninterrupted data flow between the controller and external systems. The FC-USI-0001 V1.3 has made improvements in several areas over previous communication module designs in addition to incorporating universal communication protocol capability within the Controller chassis.

The FC-USI-0001 V1.3 provides essential communication functions common to the entire rack, and is a critical component of the control path, directly affecting the proper, normal operation of the overall control system. One FC-USI-0001 V1.3 communication module is installed per chassis to enable external connectivity. The FC-USI-0001 V1.3 occupies a dedicated slot in the chassis and is always located within the Controller chassis (the dedicated communication module position).

For dual communication path applications, the system can utilize additional network infrastructure to complement the FC-USI-0001 V1.3 communication module. In addition to standard Ethernet operation, the Serial configuration also performs direct programming interface connectivity. The FC-USI-0001 V1.3 dual communication configuration executes protocol handling using the internal circuitry specified in the module options. Using this method, the communication system continually monitors the health of both Ethernet and Serial interfaces. If the system detects that one communication path is no longer providing stable data transfer (outside configured protocol/tolerance levels), it will automatically utilize the alternative interface and log the event for system diagnostics.

The FC-USI-0001 V1.3 Honeywell Universal Interface Module (USI) may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

Important Notice: Other accessories, manuals, cables, calibration data, software, etc. are not included with this equipment unless listed in the above stock item description. All prices are shown in USD.
  • Rack Slot: Vertically insert into the dedicated I/O rack of the Safety Manager controller.
  • Electrostatic Discharge Protection: Wear an anti-static wrist strap before operation to prevent electrostatic discharge damage to the chip.
  • Hot-Swapping: Supports hot-swapping, but ensure no critical interlocks are activated in the system.
  • Security Locking: After insertion, tighten the fixing screws at both ends of the module to prevent loosening.
  • Firmware Version: Load the V1.3 matching firmware offline via Safety Builder software.
  • Configuration Synchronization: After the upgrade, the control policy needs to be compiled and re-distributed to the module.
  • Redundancy Switching: In a dual-machine hot standby system, a strategy of alternating upgrades to each module should be adopted.
  • Regression Testing: After the upgrade, end-to-end communication testing of the secure communication link must be performed.
  • Emergency Disaster: Serves as the core communication interface for ESD emergency shutdown systems to cut off hazardous sources.
  • Fire and Gas Monitoring: Connects to F&G detectors in industrial sites to achieve fire-fighting linkage control.
  • Combustion Management: Used for monitoring the safety interlock status of BMS systems in large industrial boilers.
  • Critical Control: Acts as a safety isolation gateway in critical process units of large refining and chemical enterprises.
Description
Honeywell FC-USI-0001 V1.3 is a universal interface module (USI) used in Safety Manager systems. As a communication module, it supports interaction with external devices and forms part of the controller architecture. The module operates from a 5 VDC ±5% supply and requires a maximum current of 1.2 A.

One of the advantages of Honeywell FC-USI-0001 V1.3 is hot-swap capability. The communication module can be exchanged on-line without stopping the affected control processor, allowing the Safety Manager Controller to continue operation. This feature simplifies maintenance and reduces process interruptions.

Honeywell FC-USI-0001 V1.3 also supports self-educating controller functionality. When a spare USI module is installed while the other control processor is running, the replacement module is automatically updated with all software already used in the active control processor, including embedded software. This enables convenient maintenance and minimizes configuration effort.

Although Honeywell FC-USI-0001 V1.3 has been withdrawn, the FX-USI-0002 module can be used as a spare part. The replacement module can replace FC-USI-0001, FC-USI-0002 and FE-USI-0002 online and will function with the other modules in a redundant Safety Manager Controller. Support for the replacement requires Safety Manager software release R140.1 or higher. Additional enhanced functionalities available in FX-USI-0002 become active with Safety Manager release R151.1 and higher after updating the system configuration to module type USI-0002.
