Up to 32 alphanumeric 
characters 

Node_ID 

Gamewell panel node address. 
 
 
The Node Id has no meaning 
when the FieldServer is 
connected directly to Gamewell 
panel.  When connecting to a 
Gamewell panel directly always 
set the Node_ID to zero. When 
connecting to a Gamewell 
SmartNet terminal. The 
Node_ID is important and 
should correspond to the 
Node_ID’s of the panel’s 
connected to the SmartNet 
terminal. 
 

0-256 

Protocol 

Specify protocol used 

Gamewell 

Port 

Specify which port the device is 
connected to the FieldServer. 
 
The use of R1 and R2 is only 
appropriate when a 232/485 
converter is used. The 
Gamewell panels only have a 
232 port available for 
connection.
