The ProLinx Modbus Master/Slave to ASCII Generic Serial Gateway creates a powerful connection between devices on a Modbus network and ASCII devices. This stand-alone DIN-rail mounted protocol gateway provides one Modbus configurable serial port and three ASCII configurable serial ports. The Modbus protocol driver supports Master and Slave implementations of the protocol. All Modbus serial ports are individually configurable. providing a very powerful and flexible host or device interface solution. The ASCII protocol driver permits the module to interface to many ASCII devices. Each ASCII port on the module is configurable to send and/or receive ASCII strings. each supporting its own individual serial network.
