FS-8700-132 Gamewell FCI-E3 Driver Manual Page 3 of 20 1. Gamewell FCI-E3 Series Serial Driver Description The Gamewell FCI-E3 Series System Control Units are manufactured by Fire Control Instruments. An E3 Panel with an enabled serial port can transmit data to a FieldServer which can, in turn, make the data available to other devices including those which communicate using different protocols (e.g. BACnet) This passive Client driver does not poll for data, nor does it send data

FS-8700-132 Gamewell FCI-E3 Driver Manual Page 10 of 20 4.5. Map Descriptor Example 1 – Sensor / Module Events If messages from Loop 1, Module 1 to 99 are received then the Map Descriptor in this example will be used for storage. If modules occur on more than one loop, one Map Descriptor is required per loop. In this example the event type is set to ‘Alarm’ so only “Alarm” events will be stored. The “Event_Type” can be changed to suit the required data. If all events are required,

The example would work for all other point types. In the example, both primary and secondary storage Data Arrays have been specified. The driver stores index values in the primary array. Each new event for a particular relay will overwrite the value stored previously. In the Bit Array, the driver sets the bit corresponding t

When the “Reset” button on the panel is pressed a message is transmitted to the FieldServer, which clears the data in the FieldServer. After a reset the panel sends messages to report all abnormal states. When all these messages have been processed the FieldServer and panel will be synchronized. This process can be repeated at any time. Appendix A.5.
