QuickServer – LonWorks to BACnet/IP

FS-QS-1011-0131 QuickServer – LonWorks to BACnet/IP

The FS-QS-1011-0131 QuickServer provides a cost-effective, easy to use interface from LonWorks to BACnet/IP. The QuickServer is delivered with both drivers preloaded and ready to be configured using the provided instructions and software.

 

QuickServer Key Features:

  • Ability to interface up to 250 points of common BAS protocols
  • Multi-configuration capability; specific configurations selectable via DIP switches or software
  • Flat panel mount standard, DIN rail mount option
  • DIP switches to select baud rate or node ID on the fly

 

LonWorks driver:

  • The FieldServer LonWorks device can be used with explicit and/or implicit addressing and can be bound to a maximum of 15 other LonWorks nodes. The QuickServer can handle a maximum of 250 explicitly addressed nodes. The QuickServer currently supports a default of 63 network variable aliases to avoid network variable connection constraints.
  • QuickServer can transfer data (Network Variables) in two ways
    • It can poll (request data from) other devices at a regular interval
    • It can send Network Variable Updates at a regular interval, when data has changed, or, in throttled mode using maximum and minimum send time and change on delta parameters
  • QuickServer can be configured by Network Management Tools such as LonMaker. For binding (implicit mode), a Network Management Tool is necessary to create the bindings.
  • The External Interface File (.XIF) for the QuickServer can be uploaded from FieldServer for a particular application
  • Driver type: Client or Server
  • Connection type: FTT-10 Free Topology Network Transceiver
