Appendix A.8. Statistics
The driver reports statistics according to the FieldServer standards. The following notes describe
some aspects of standard statistic reporting which are peculiar to this driver.
NAK Each time a negative acknowledgement message is received.
CHECKSUM Each time that a message is received that contains a non-ASCII character.
NOISE An acknowledgement message contains an unrecognized code.
NO START Each time a message is received that doesn’t begin with a space.

In addition to the standard FieldServer communication statistics described above and in the
FieldServer User’s Manual, this driver can also expose some driver statistics by writing data to a Data
Array. A special Map Descriptor is required. The driver recognizes the Map Descriptor by its name
which must be "McQuay-stats”.
The driver stores the following data. The location in the Data Array is obtained by multiplying the
port number by 50 and then using the location offset indicated in the table below.
