Functional Description:
The Module Hardware Information generic hardware operator provides access to a system information resource in a physical module. When the generic operator is linked to a specific module, it will acquire system information from that module and populate its output values with that information.


The operator has eight outputs which provide the following information:
Control Code Version. The version number of the embedded firmware executing in the module


Control Code Build. The build number of the embedded firmware executing in the module


Module Type. A numeric value corresponding to the module part number (see table below)


Board Revision. The revision code for the primary electronic PC board in the embedded hardware target. For Chameleon modules, this is the PC board that is mounted in the module faceplate cover. The output value is a number corresponding to the revision code letter: 1 = A, 2 = B, 3 = C, ...

 
Board Build. The build code for the primary electronic PC board in the embedded hardware target. For Chameleon modules, this is the PC board that is mounted in the module faceplate cover.


Board Serial Number. The product serial number


Available Memory. The amount of available volatile memory (RAM) in the embedded hardware target


Available Flash. The amount of available non-volatile memory in the embedded hardware target


The Module Type output values correspond to the following Fairmount Automation part numbers:

FA P/N
