FS-8700-60 Gardner Denver Manual Page 10 of 11 Appendix 1. Advanced Topics Appendix 1.1. Can I use only Passive Client mapdescs ? No. A passive client map descriptor must be used after an active RDBC map descriptor. The driver uses the active map descriptors to poll the Controller and then searches for Passive Client map descriptors with matching Node_Name and Gar_Cmd fields. It then stores the data items as specified by the Gar_data field from the data collected by the preceding active map descriptor.
