Field Level Network
The APOGEE Field Level Network (FLN) is a data communications network that
passes information between an FLN device or devices and an Automation Level
Network (ALN) device, usually within one building. FLNs consist of devices that
communicate using P1 or MS/TP.
P1 devices can include Terminal Equipment Controllers (TEC), Fume Hood
Controllers (FHC) and other vendor equipment, such as ABB Speed Drives, which
contain Protocol 1.
Selected models of APOGEE field panels can communicate with other vendor
protocols on the FLN, such as McQuay, Lumisys, EST IRC-3, and Allen Bradley.
Contact your Siemens Industry representative for information on devices that can
communicate with other vendor protocols.
