FieldServer Driver – Serial
FS-8700-67
RussElectric Model 2000
Description
The Serial Russelectric Model 2000 driver allows the FieldServer to transfer data to and from devices over either RS-232 or RS-485 using RTU protocol. The Russelectric Model 2000 drivers implement a Model 2000 Client and a Model 2000 Server. The Client driver can read data from a remote Server and send write data commands. The Server driver emulates a Model 2000 device and responds to data read and write poll commands.
