  • Page 13: Map Descriptor Examples

    FS-8700-48 Fike Cheetah Manual Column Title Function Full details of the most recent event (any device) may be stored in DA_Byte_Name the data array DA_HIST_EVENT. See sections 5.4.14 and 5.4.15. Appendix D.3 maps the layout of this data. Map Descriptor Examples The driver processes messages from the panel that relay the panel’s current status as well as new history events.

  • Page 14: Acknowledging Alarms

    FS-8700-48 Fike Cheetah Manual  The entire history event record for the most recent event (any device or a specific device) can be stored in the Data Array DA_HIST_EVENT which must be defined as described in Section 4. Appendix D.3 maps the layout of this data.

  • Page 27: Appendix C.2. Driver Stats

    FS-8700-48 Fike Cheetah Manual Page 28 of 36 Appendix C.2. Driver Stats Cheetah panels produce data messages for slave devices to consume. The type and frequency of the messages depends on the Cheetah firmware revision. The driver counts all incoming messages of interest as the PLC_READ_MSG_RECD statistic. Other legal messages which do not contain the data this driver is interested in are discarded and are counted as the MSG_IGNORED statistic.

  • Page 28: Appendix D. Reference

    FS-8700-48 Fike Cheetah Manual Appendix D. Reference Appendix D.1. Driver Scope This driver has implemented cheetah command #6.0. These messages are produced by a Cheetah device controller and are consumed by this driver. The driver has no control on the frequency of the messages and thus cannot guarantee fresh data.
