1. Cheetah Device Description
The Cheetah Protocol driver allows the FieldServer to transfer data to and from devices over
either RS-232 or RS-485 using the Cheetah device protocol. The Cheetah system provides fire
detection/monitoring equipment and is manufactured by the Fike Corporation (www.fike.com).
The driver is also able to be used with the newer Fike XI panel.
The FieldServer can emulate either a Server or Client but it should be noted that it can only
process unsolicited messages from the Cheetah devices. Thus, it does not provide an active
Client driver. It is best to consider this driver as a consumer only driver with the data being
produced by a Cheetah controller.
The driver supports messages sent from the Cybercat panel. Specifically, the driver supports
message 1.02 which reports panel, zone and device states.
