Only 1 Client node per port allowed

The Envirotronics SystemsPlus driver allows for direct interfacing to a SystemsPlus Programmer/Controller device. The driver acts as a Client to the device and can be used to read and set system parameters for status monitoring and control purposes. Combined with other protocol drivers on a FieldServer such as BACNet, complete SystemsPlus monitoring and control is made possible via control systems such as Scada.

The driver is not available as a Server since a FieldServer cannot fully emulate a SystemsPlus device’s interfaces. Any existing Server drivers are for FieldServer testing purposes only.
