Integrate Modbus Tcp & Serial Networks, 4.0 Watts, 10 - 48 VDC, 1- 10/100 Ethernet RJ45
Solve most any Modbus conversion challenge with the MESR Modbus Gateway. Fiber Ethernet and built-in Ethernet Pass-Through Options Available!
- ASCII to RTU Conversion
- ASCII or RTU to Modbus TCP Conversion
- Remap conflicting Modbus ID's
- Add multiple masters to Modbus networks
- Prioritize messages based on IP address, Modbus ID, and Function code
- Convert mismatched serial baud rates and settings
- Route Modbus traffic based on Modbus ID
MESR Modbus Gateways bridge devices on Modbus serial networks (RS-232, RS-422 or RS-485) with those on Modbus TCP networks, allowing seamless integration of any Modbus device. Each serial port is accessible over a LAN or WAN by up to 16 simultaneous Modbus TCP masters. All Vlinx™ MESR gateways feature auto detecting 10/100Base T copper and fiber optic connections.
Simple Installation and Setup
- Removable terminal blocks simplify power and data connections
- Slimline IP30 DIN mount enclosure minimizes footprint
- Simple configuration through the built-in web server, or Windows configuration software
- Built-in traffic monitor for instant verification of successful installation and simple network diagnostics
- Optional pass-through Ethernet port eliminates need for additional Ethernet switch port
- Optional Fiber Optic Ethernet connections for long-distance and total noise immunity
<b>Ethernet Master Serial Slaves</b>
MESR9xx modules can be used to integrate serial slave devices on a MODBUS TCP network. This allows TCP Masters to control serial slave devices.
<b>Serial & Ethernet Masters, Serial & Ethernet Slaves</b>
MESR9xx modules can also integrate multiple master devices onto serial and Ethernet networks.
<b>Two Identical Hard Coded Slaves</b>
In this scenario, two slave devices that are hard coded with the same ID are required. This is accomplished by placing them on different serial ports.
<b>Serial Masters with IP Slaves</b>
Serial Masters can be used to control IP slaves
<b>Identical Networks</b>
In this scenario, identical or backup production lines can be controlled by the same IP Master. This allows the duplicate networks to be configured identically, saving documentation and maintenance time.
