The Diamond PGS ZoneBuffer is the first line data communication hub of the system. It communicates via three communication ports:

•    Downstream RS232 port
•    Downstream RS485 port
•    Upstream RS485 port

The ZoneBuffer main functions are:

•    Collect data from the sensor array.
•    Calculate the availability figures of each section, allocation and the total.
•    Send data to downstream numeric displays.
•    Compress the information and relay it upstream on request.
•    Reduce commissioning effort to next to nil using its auto map feature.
