CONFIGURING THE FIELDSERVER AS A SBT-FSI CLIENT
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” sample files provided with the FieldServer).

This section documents and describes the parameters necessary for configuring the FieldServer to communicate
with a SBT-FSI Server.
with a SBT-FSI Server.
In FSI mode, the NIM-1R or NIM-1W or RPM allows the FieldServer to gather data from up to 63 MXL/XLS Panels
connected via an MXL/XLS network. The default configuration shipped with the FieldServer will monitor two
panels (1 and 2) with 8 modules (1 to 8) each.

panels (1 and 2) with 8 modules (1 to 8) each.
When the FieldServer is configured as a Client, two sets of data are collected by a “poller” Map Descriptor.
The first is a collection of 19 counters per panel. Each 16-bit counter is incremented by the poller Map Descriptor
whenever the corresponding event occurs. An external Client can read these counters to quickly determine
whether a new event has been reported to the Server. The counters are mapped into the Data Array specified for
the poller Map Descriptor. Counter offsets into the Data Array per event type are indicated below:

The second set of data is a collection of bit maps that can be queried to identify the device that has reported the
event. When an alarm event arrives from a device, the corresponding bit is set in two separate arrays. The bit in
one array indicates the alarm has occurred, and the bit in the other array indicates that the alarm has not yet been
acknowledged. When an “alarm clear” event arrives, the bit in the alarm array is cleared. If an “alarm
acknowledge” event arrives, the bit in the un-acknowledged array is cleared. All event arrays in a Client driver
configuration are optional. To enable an event array, a Map Descriptor must be defined in the configuration using
a Map Descriptor message type that corresponds to the array as shown in the following table:
