Classic QuickServer Gateway (Serial-Ethernet)

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 worldwide 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 FS-QS-1X10 Series is preloaded with two BAS drivers (two RS485 serial ports and one Ethernet port) Drivers from a list of over 150 protocols. There is a basic QuickServer that can handle up to 250 points and an enhanced QuickServer that can handle 500 points.

The FS-QS-1220 Series is preloaded with two BAS drivers (one RS485 serial port, one RS232 serial port, and one Ethernet port) Drivers from a list of over 150 protocols. Each QuickServer can handle up to 500 points.

Each 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.

Veeder-Root

The Veeder-Root Serial Driver allows the FieldServer to transfer data to and from devices over either RS- 232 or RS-485 ports using Veeder-Root protocol as defined in Veeder- Root Document 576013-635 Revision J. The Veeder-Root Driver supports TLS350 as per Veeder-Root Document 576013-635 Revision Y, and TLS450 as per Veeder-Root Document 577013-950 Revision G. Since the data protocol is the same for the TLS-350+ as for TL-S350, it is assumed that the driver will support the TLS350+ but this has not been tested. The Driver also successfully communicates with the TLS-450 as it has the same data protocol. Please refer to the driver manual for hardware connections.

The FieldServer emulates a Client.

The Veeder-Root Serial Driver is a poll response driver. Only one query or command can be processed at a time.

A limited set of the queries and commands defined in the protocol specification have been implemented. The reason for the limitation is two-fold. Firstly, not all commands/queries will have any meaning to a Server device as they are principally defined to configure the Veeder-Root Device. Secondly, some commands return very complex data sets which cannot be processed in a method suitable for loading into the FieldServer’s Data Arrays.

The driver is capable of exposing its communications statistics which allows them to be monitored using a Server device. 

Supported Veeder-Root products

The Veeder-Root Gateway supports the following Veeder-Root Products:

  • TLS-450 PLUS Automatic Tank Gauge
  • TLS4i / TLS4c Automatic Tank Gauge
  • TLS-350 Automatic Tank Gauge
  • TLS-350 Plus Automatic Tank Gauge
  • TLS-350R Automatic Tank Gauge
  • TLS-300C/I Automatic Tank Gauges
  • TLS-2/P Automatic Tank Gauge

SNMP-Custom

The SNMP driver allows the FieldServer to transfer data to and from devices over Ethernet using the SNMP version 1 protocol. The FieldServer can emulate either a Server (SNMP Agent) or Client.

Max Nodes Supported:

The Client can be configured to read values specified by their SNMP Object Identifiers (OID’s), which are defined in the MIB file (Management Information Base) of the target device. When acting as an SNMP Agent (Server), the driver makes the contents of specified integer data arrays available to any SNMP Client.

The FieldServer MIB file sets out the OIDs to use. The current version of the driver can send and receive SNMP traps.

The following SNMP data types are supported:

• INTEGER

• OCTET_STREAM

• TIMER_TICKS

• STRING

The maximum number of traps currently supported is 255. The FieldServer Enterprise ID is 6347. MIB files are generated automatically from the FieldServer configuration files. A selection of standard MIB-2 OIDs are supported to allow interaction with popular Network Management packages.

FieldServer Driver – Ethernet

FS-8704-09

SNMP

Description

The SNMP driver allows the FieldServer to transfer data to and from devices over Ethernet using the SNMP version 1 protocol. The FieldServer can emulate either a Server (SNMP Agent) or Client.

The Client can be configured to read values specified by their SNMP Object Identifiers (OID’s), which are defined in the MIB file (Management Information Base) of the target device.  When acting as an SNMP Agent (Server), the driver makes the contents of specified integer data arrays available to any SNMP Client.  The FieldServer MIB file sets out the OID’s to use.

The current version of the driver can send and receive SNMP traps. The following SNMP data types are currently supported:

  • · INTEGER
  • · OCTET_STREAM
  • · TIMER_TICKS
  • · STRING

The maximum number of traps currently supported is 255.

The FieldServer Enterprise ID is 6347.  MIB files are generated automatically from the FieldServer configuration files. A selection of standard MIB-2 OID’s are supported to allow interaction with popular Network Management packages.
