All of the messages sent from the networked FACPs (Nodes) are available for use by external equipment. The
Gamewell SmartNet system information consists of straight ascii data from the comm. port of the Network Master
Computer. The data stream is transmitted in the following RS-232 structure and format. The data is transmitted
from the computer "in the blind", there is no handshaking between the computer and the data receiver. In order for
the receiver to supervise the data connection, the computer will send a "heart beat" message every two minutes.
The computer cannot detect a device connected to the comm. port. These parameters can be changed in the
PRIV.INI file.
