Your problem is actually rather simple:
Because you mention '/' right after the 's' command, sed assumes '/' is your delimiter.
Take a look at your like and see if you can spot the number of '/'s.
The simplest way around this is by using another (unused) character as delimiter.
Ex:
sed s#FCR.BASEIN_BACKUP=c:\\temp#FCR.BASEIN_BACKUP=/tmp#g /opt/test.properties > /opt/test.properties

HISTORY
The GNU shtool subst command was originally written by Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com> in 2001 for GNU shtool. It was prompted
by the need to have a uniform and convenient patching frontend to sed(1) operations in the OpenPKG package specifications.

shtool(1), sed(1).
