ProtoCessor Simple Protocol

FS-8700-111
FieldServer Driver - Serial

A simple ASCII protocol that provides a simple way to communicate with a ProtoCessor

The driver can be configured as a Client or Server.

As a Server: Driver responds to read/write requests for the transfer of data. The Server can update selected upstream device configuration settings (such as Baud rate and Node Id.) on request. The Server can accept or provide data values in decimal or in hex format as required by the Client. Note that the Server will respond with data even where the upstream node is offline and the data has aged out. An advanced version of the driver avoids this limitation. (See FS-8700-109)

As a Client: The client side has been developed primarily to test the Server side driver as part of FieldServer's QA program. The Driver polls to read or write data. The Driver can receive or send data values in decimal or in hex format. The Driver can also poll the Server to change upstream node or connection parameters like Node_ID or Baud rate.
