Fire Alarm Control Panels (FACPs) are manufactured by the National Time and Signal Corp.   
The series 900 and 902 FACP’s can be purchased with a ‘BACnet’ interface option. When 
suitably equipped and when this interface is enabled, the FACPs can transmit data to a 
FieldServer which can, in turn, make this data available to other devices including devices which 
are capable of communicating using the BACnet and other protocols. 

This driver is a passive client driver. This means that the driver does not actively poll for data but 
listens passively for data to be sent by the FACP’s that it is connected to.  Messages sent by the 
panel are either ignored stored by the FieldServer based on panel status.  How these messages 
are processed is dependent on the configuration. 

No automatic panel data synchronization technique exists. The data in the FieldServer and the 
panel status have to be synchronized manually. 

This is a serial driver. Data is transferred using RS-232 or RS-485 (with converter).  

The driver provides both client and server emulation. The server side of the driver is intended to 
support FieldServer’s Quality Assurance program and is not intended to provide complete 
emulation of a FACP. Thus the server side is not fully documented. However, at a customer’s 
request the server side functionality can be documented and enhanced. If you are interested in 
this functionality, then please contact FieldServer’s sales group.
