Product Highlights
The IWR-PORT Ethernet Gateway provides a link between wireless sensors and sensor networks and Industrial Ethernet or RS-232/485 networks.
This allows wireless transmitters to be incorporated into new or existing Industrial Ethernet or RS-232/485 data monitoring and control networks.
The IWR-PORT can interface with standard 10/100Base-T Ethernet networks giving access to the standard MODBUS TCP protocol, ensuring compatibility with most industrial automation systems. MODBUS RTU is available when an RS-232/485 network is used.
Multiple battery powered sensors transmit data at programmable intervals to an IWR-PORT receiver which can transfer the data onto an Ethernet or RS-232/485 network.
Data from up to 128 nodes can be stored on one IWR-PORT module and up to 16 networks can co-exist together. All parameters are stored as Modbus registers.
