PLX31_MBTCP_MBS4

EtherNet/IP to Modbus Serial 4 Port

PLX31-EIP-MBS4

The EtherNet/IP® to Modbus Serial gateway offers bi-directional data transfers between Modbus Serial and the EtherNet/IP network. Our EtherNet/IP Driver uses Class 1 I/O connections and/or Class 3 Message instructions. Protocol conversion gateways are the ideal solution for distributed networks when adding a remote rack becomes too costly.

The PLX31-EIP-MBS4 gateways are stand-alone DIN-rail mounted gateways that provide one Ethernet port for communication, allowing for remote configuration and diagnostics, and up to four (4) serial communication ports. The PLX30 gateways also come with an SD Card slot (SD card optional) for storing configuration files. In the event of a failure the SD card can be transferred to another gateway reducing downtime. These gateways also come with a wide input power range (10 Vdc – 36 Vdc), and an extended temperature range (-25°C to 70°C ). The PLX30 gateways include all the necessary cables required for communication.

A conformal coating option is available for this product.

Características y Beneficios

  • Data prioritization: Multiple I/O connections allow you to set RPIs for status and/or control data, optimizing Ethernet bandwidth. 
  • Includes an embedded EDS Add-On Profile, allowing for simplified integration and reduced commissioning time. 
  • Includes a SD card slot (SD card optional) for storing configuration files. This can be used for disaster recovery. 
  • Four serial ports allow for connectivity of up to 400 Modbus® devices, reducing the amount of gateways required for your application. 
  • ProSoft Discovery Service: This utility allows your PC to see the gateway and change its default IP address without being on the same subnet. 
  • Secure module configuration via module switch (v1.04 and greater). 
  • Up to 10,000 16-bit registers can be used to exchange large amounts of data.
