Quickserver Gateway (Serial-Ethernet)

The QuickServer is a high performance, fully configurable, cost effective Building and Industrial Automation gateway for integrators to easily interface devices to networks in commercial buildings and industrial plants.

System integrators world-wide have benefitted from the value of the powerful line of interoperability gateways offered by FieldServer. Now, QuickServer adds to that value by running the same robust FieldServer protocol conversion software on a highly cost effective platform backed by the experience, engineering expertise and proven technical support that integrators have come to expect from FieldServer.

QuickServer (Serial-Ethernet) is available in two series:

The QuickServer FS-QS-2X10 series is available at four different point capacities. Each QuickServer is preloaded with two drivers (serial and/or Ethernet) from a customer’s choice of 140 different drivers, E.G. Modbus, BACnet, SNMP, EtherNet/IP and many more.

The FS-QS-2010 with 2 RS485 and 1 ethernet port can support up to 250 points. The FS-QS-2210 can support up to 500 points. The FS-QS-2310 can support up to 3,000 points. The FS-QS-2410 can support up to 5,000 points.

Equivalently the FS-QS-2020 with 1 RS485, 1 RS232 and 1 ethernet port can support up to 250 points. The FS-QS-2220 can support up to 500 points. The FS-QS-2320 can support up to 3,000 points. The FS-QS-2420 can support up to 5,000 points.

Every QuickServer includes browser-based tools to make it easy to set-up QuickServer and perform diagnostics including determination of status, network settings, node information, map descriptors and more. The USB flash drive also includes the Discovery utility to determine what FieldServers are on a network.

Dual Ethernet Port Quickserver Gateway (Serial-Ethernet)

The Dual port QuickServer takes the QuickServers to the next level with Security and Power. With two Ethernet ports, the Dual port QuickServer allows data to move seamlessly across disparate subnets, using a dedicated port for Cloud connectivity. This port isolation allows for enhanced LAN security from the BMS/WAN/Cloud. An embedded OpenVPN Server enables secure remote access to Ethernet devices in the field.

The QuickServer FS-QS-3X10-F series is available at four different point capacities. Each QuickServer is preloaded with 140 different drivers, such as Modbus, BACnet, SNMP, EtherNet/IP and many more. See page 3 for the complete list. The FS-QS-3010-F can support up to 250 points. The FS-QS-3110-F can support up to 500 points. The FS-QS-3210-F can support up to 1,000 points. The FS-QS-3310-F can support up to 3,000 points. The FS-QS-3410-F can support up to 5,000 points. The FS-QS-3510-Fire can support up to 10,000 points.

Barrington Microstar

This driver is used to exchange data between a FieldServer and a ‘MicroSTAR’ devices. They are also commonly known as ‘Barrington MicroSTAR’ devices. For this driver to work, the LanStar must be removed as the gateway becomes the master on the trunk of Microstars.


Each device has 4x AO, 4x AI, 4x DI, 4x DO and 4x Counters. The devices can be daisy chained on a RS485 network. Setpoints, virtual Digital Outputs, any virtual points or virtual Microstars all reside in the meory of the LanStar and are not accessible using this driver.


The driver can monitor the status of these points and write to the outputs.


This is an active client driver. The FieldServer is the client. The MicroSTAR devices are the passive servers. The Client sends messages and processes responses from the MicroSTAR’s.


The driver is a serial driver using a RS485 serial ports to connect between the FieldServer and the MicroSTAR’s. If RS232 ports are used then a converter to RS485 must be used.


The driver is fully compatible with other FieldServer drivers and meets FieldServer’s quality assurance standards. The driver was developed by Chipkin Automation Systems, an Approved FieldServer Integrator.



Both Client and Server functionality have been implemented. This means that you can use the driver as a client to monitor/command the devices or you can use it a server to make another type of device appear as if it were a MicroSTAR device. Ie. The server functionality allows you to make a foreign device emulate a MicroSTAR so it can be installed in a MicroSTAR trunk
