Modbus is an industry adopted communication protocol based on RTU, ASCII, and TCP protocols for various applications; these three protocols are commonly used by various equipment in the industry, such as DCS, PLC, HMI, power meters, various sensor and measuring instruments. The Modbus Gateway is capable of implementing the Modbus protocol conversion between different hardware interfaces, thereby streamlining the process of management and application. Diverse Hardware Infrastructure Modbus Gateway supports the four most commonly used communication standards, RS-232/485/422, and Ethernet. The ease-of-use configuration utility provided with Modbus Gateway can quickly select the hardware interface , and easily switch to the existing communication infrastructure. Switching between Modbus Protocols Modbus Gateway supports the standard Modbus protocol and is capable of converting any Modbus protocols between Modbus TCP, Modbus RTU, and Modbus ASCII for all supported hardware interfaces. Modbus ID Routing Modbus Gateway is not only capable of hardware and protocol conversions, and when a Modbus ID conflict occurs, the Modbus Gateway also supports ID routing to the existing Modbus hardware. Simple Integration for Complex Configurations Modbus Gateway supports various types of hardware communication interfaces, Modbus protocol conversion, and Modbus ID routing. Therefore the Modbus Gateway can integrate your existing and complex Modbus hardware configuration into a simple network that can be easily managed.
