    This section documents and describes the parameters necessary for configuring the FieldServer to communicate with a GE-SRTP Driver Server. The configuration file tells the FieldServer about its interfaces, and the routing of data required. In order to enable the FieldServer for GE-SRTP Driver communications, the driver independent FieldServer buffers need to be declared in the “Data Arrays”...

    The statistics recorded by the GE-SNPX Serial Driver are slightly different from the way that Fieldserver driver normally record statistics. This difference arises from the fact that this driver is not a simple poll response driver. Bare in mind that a single poll can generate a large number of response fragments.
