Selecting the Port / Channel
After adding the communication driver, you need to address a PORT or channel .
If you are running PACTware on a PC, the PORTs correspond to your
COM Ports . In this case, the standard Serial Port might be COM1 =
PORT1 .
If you are running PACTware on the Foxboro I/A Series System in
connection with an FBM215 for 8 HART outputs, you will see each
individual channel of the FBM .
The displayed example represents the 8 channels (CHAN1…8) of a
Field Bus Module (FBM) connected to a Control Processor (CP) .
After browsing the channels of the individual FBM, you can assign a
field device to each I/O .
Connecting the Device
