Point Six Wireless-- FS-8704-22

FieldServer Driver - Ethernet

A communications interface solution for Point Six Wireless

The Point Six Wireless Driver allows the FieldServer to record data from Point Six wireless sensors over Ethernet. The driver acts as a Passive Client. This means that the driver will not send any polls or requests for information. It will listen for UDP packets addressed to itself at a configurable port. Point Six Wireless sensors should be configured to send daata messages to the FieldServer's IP address and port. Note that Point Six sensors are wireless, therefore a wireless-to-wired Ethernet connection to the FieldServer is necessary. This is normally provided via the Point Six receievers. Point Six Wireless sensors are also manufactured for a variety of other OEM manufacturers but still utilize the Point Six Wireless protocol.
