Serial - Ethernet

FieldServer-Gateway is a protocol translator gateway which enables devices using one protocol to communicate with devices using another protocol. An example is a fire alarm panel using a proprietary manufacturer’s protocol needing to supply alarm information to a building automation system. In a single, comprehensive package the FS-Bridge provides the hardware and software necessary for this translation.

The FS-B4010-01 includes eight RS232 ports, two RS-485 ports, two Ethernet (10baseT) ports to interface to the devices. In addition there is an ISA card slot for special driver adapter cards such as DH+, Profibus, ControlNet, etc. All the necessary software and instructions for configuration are supplied with the FS-Bridge.

FieldServer Technologies also offers fee based configuration services. FS-Bridges are also available for various fieldbuses.
