Expansion modules pulse inputs, Line series

Description

Physical media conversion gateway, designed to connect Modbus RTU devices with Modbus TCP/IP networks. Its compact DIN rail design (3 modules) allows for easy installation and adaptability to multiple environments. Each gateway can manage up to 32 locally connected Modbus RTU devices and supports direct interconnection with modules from the Line range via the lateral bus, eliminating the need for additional communication bus cabling. It also includes RS-485 and RS-232 terminals to connect external equipment outside the Line range, providing maximum flexibility for integration. They offer features such as:

• Ethernet/Wi-Fi communication for Modbus TCP/IP.
• Serial RS-232/RS-485 communication for Modbus RTU.
• Connects up to 8 devices via the Line bus through the lateral bus without additional cabling.
• Integrated web server with and intuitive and user-friendly interface for advanced Wi-Fi settings.
• Compatible with the MyConfig app, for fast and easy set-up.

Applications

Thanks to its direct conversion between Modbus RTU and Modbus TCP/IP, these gateways are ideal for integration projects involving RS-485 communication devices that need to be monitored or controlled over Ethernet or Wi-Fi networks. Typical applications include:

• Modular integration with Line range devices for centralised control and monitoring solutions.
• Automation of utility infrastructures through PLC or BMS integration.
• Monitoring and control of Modbus RTU devices from cloud platforms or centralised supervision systems.
• Modernisation of existing installations by adding TCP/IP connectivity without modifying RS-232/RS-485 cabling.
