CONFIGURING THE FIELDSERVER AS A STULZ CLIENT
For detailed information on FieldServer configuration, 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 (s
ee “.csv” files provided with the FieldServer).
This section documents and describes the parameters necessary for configuring the FieldServer to
communicate with a Stulz microcontroller device.
The configuration file tells the FieldServer about its interfaces, and the routing of data required. In order to
enable the FieldServer for Stulz 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 “Nodes”
section, and the data to be provided to the Clients
’ needs to be mapped in the “Map Descriptors” section.
Details on how to do this can be found below.
