2 different FBM230 due to different software for each type of
communication.

Another doubt regarding the FBM230 is: Can I have one port interfacing
a DH+ network (via a KF2) and another port communicating with a Modbus
device? Or would I need two independent FBM230 for that?

The PSS says:
"The FBM230 has four ports - each can be
individually configured in software for RS-232,
RS-422 or RS-485. This provides a single FBM230
the flexibility to connect to multiple similar but not
identical devices."
