Configuring the FieldServer as a GE_SNP Server
For a detailed discussion on FieldServer configuration, please refer to the FieldServer
Configuration Manual. The information that follows describes how to expand upon the factory
defaults provided in the configuration files included with the FieldServer (See “.csv” files
provided with the FieldServer).

This section documents and describes the parameters necessary for configuring the FieldServer
to communicate with a GE_SNP Client.
to communicate with a GE_SNP Client.
The configuration file tells the FieldServer about its interfaces, and the routing of data required.
In order to enable the FieldServer for GE_SNP communications, the driver independent
FieldServer buffers need to be declared in the “Data Arrays” section, the FieldServer virtual
Node(s) needs to be declared in the “Server Side Nodes” section, and the data to be provided to
the Clients needs to be mapped in the “Server Side Map Descriptors” section. Details on how to
do this can be found below.
