Client Side Connection Parameterss - FieldServer FS-8700-40 Driver Manual

FS-8700-40 SBT FSI Driver Manual
The configuration file tells the FieldServer about its interfaces, and the routing of data required. In order to enable
the FieldServer for SBT-FSI communications, the driver independent FieldServer buffers need to be declared in the
"Data Arrays" section, the destination device addresses need to be declared in the "Client Side Nodes" section, and
the data required from the Servers needs to be mapped in the "Client Side Map Descriptors" section. Details on
how to do this can be found below.
Note that in the tables, * indicates an optional parameter, with the bold legal value being the default.
