BB-MESR92x Modbus Gateways bridge devices on Modbus serial networks
(RS-232, RS-422 or RS-485) with those on Modbus TCP networks, allowing
seamless integration. Serial ports can be accessed over a LAN or WAN using
Direct IP Mode connections. Supporting up to 16 masters and 32 slaves,
these gateways feature auto-detecting 10/100 copper and ber optic options.
Easy-to-use software is designed for Windows 2000, 2003 Server, XP, Vista,
2008 Server, 7, 8, 10. Serial data rates up to 230 kbps ensure maximum
network exibility.
BB-MESR92x gateways are built for use in industrial environments, featuring
a slim IP30 DIN rail mount case. They operate from a range of DC power
supply voltages and have pluggable terminal block connectors. An external
power supply is required (not included, sold separately).
The units have an additional Ethernet port that functions much like an
Ethernet switch, allowing pass-through connectivity for other Ethernet
devices. This port can also be used to “daisy chain” multiple gateways.
Includes easy conguration software.
FEATURES
+ All serial ports are software congurable for RS-232, RS-422, or RS-485.
Copper port options available. Contact B+B SmartWorx.
