FieldServer Technologies Introduces M-Bus Gateway

February 11, 2013 – FieldServer Technologies, the major gateway manufacturer in the building automation industry, introduces the new M-Bus Gateway.  The QuickServer M-Bus Gateway enables data access from M-Bus devices to networks utilizing open and proprietary protocols such as BACnet, Modbus, LonWorks, Metasys N2 by JCI, EtherNet/IP, DNP3, SNMP, KNX and more.  With over 100 protocols available in the extensive FieldServer Driver Library, no other product can connect M-Bus to more products!

The M-Bus QuickServer Gateway is configurable to act as both a Master and a Slave M-Bus device. As an M-Bus Master the number of devices supported is limited to up to 64 devices as the FieldServer provides power to the M-Bus. The M-Bus master interrogates the slave devices as the gateway acts as a Client. It will request information from the slave devices and receive and process only the expected responses.

As an M-Bus Slave the maximum number of devices on the M-Bus is limited to the M-Bus standard of 250. The gateway will act as an M-Bus Slave and will respond only to requests from the M-Bus master devices.
