1 CANATAL SATCHNET PROTOCOL DRIVER DESCRIPTION
The Canatal Satchnet Protocol Driver allows the FieldServer to transfer data to and from devices over either RS-232
or RS-485 using Canatal Satchnet Protocol Driver protocol. The FieldServer can emulate either a Server or Client.
This driver provides support for the Canatal International implementation of the “Satchwell Network (Full) and
Net2 (Reduced)” protocol.
The Canatal Satchnet Protocol Driver can act as a Satchnet Master.

 Data from Series 2, 4, 5, 6,8, 9 devices can be polled.
 Data from any 'Table' can be read.
 Data in 'Tables' with “write permission” can be written to by the driver.
