FieldServer DeviceNet Gateway
DeviceNet - Serial - Ethernet - LonWorks®
FS-B3515 - DeviceNet Slave
FS-B3521 - DeviceNet Master
DeviceNet Gateways providing a wealth of features to enable data transfer between DeviceNet networks and different devices and networks utilizing serial, Ethernet or LonWorks protocols. The extensive library of FieldServer drivers provides easy DeviceNet interoperability with devices and networks used in building automation, HVAC, fire and process control industries.
The DeviceNet Gateways are designed to meet the needs of system integrators in designing a complete interoperable system. The DeviceNet Gateways bring together the powerful FieldServer driver library with state-of-the-art gateway design. This FieldServer includes four serial connections (two RS-232, two RS-485), two 10/100BaseT Ethernet ports, one DeviceNet port and a LonWorks® port. This design enables integrators to link multiple serial devices to a DeviceNet network. The DeviceNet Gateway is available as either a DeviceNet Slave or DeviceNet Master device. With two Ethernet ports, the integrator can connect a PC to download configuration changes without disturbing the system connections and without the additional cost of an external hub. FieldServer Technologies also offers fee based configuration
services.

FieldServer Technologies continuously strives to enhance our gateways and the latest DeviceNet Gateway includes a major software upgrade, resulting in significant enhancements in performance, including:
- 40% higher point count capability - some protocols are major memory hogs, and the result is that they can slow down performance of any gateway. With the greater memory enhancement, the FS-B35 Series can easily handle all of the drivers extremely well.
- Memory utilization monitoring - the user is provided with application memory statistics (in both kB and as a percentage of the available memory) enabling optimal matching of device models and configurations to specific applications.
- Improved stability and performance under high loads - the new software enhances the operation making it more forgiving to configuration problems with fewer crashes when capacity limits are reached.
- USB firmware update - this allows the firmware or configuration of the FieldServer to be updated from a USB flash drive whenever it is inserted, enabling users to easily update firmware in the field. This is a great time saver if you have multiple FieldServers in the field.
