Product Description

The ProLinx family Modbus TCP/IP to Modbus Master/Slave communications module (5201-MNET-MCM) creates a powerful connection between devices on a Modbus TCP/IP network and Modbus serial devices. The module is a stand-alone DIN rail-mounted protocol gateway that provides one ethernet port and up to four serial ports.

The Modbus TCP/IP (MNET) driver can be used to interface many different protocols into the Schneider Electric Quantum family of processors as well other software solutions supporting the protocol. The MNET driver supports Client connections as well as Server connections.

The Modbus (MCM) 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.

Product Applications

The MNET-MCM modules are the ideal solution for the many applications where Modbus TCP/IP connectivity can be used to integrate Modbus Master/Slave serial devices into a system. The Modbus TCP/IP gateway is a powerful module designed with both Client and Server support, enabling easy connection to other Modbus TCP/IP Devices (Modicon processors and many others). In combination with the Modbus Master/Slave device support, the module provides a very powerful interface to the many Modbus Master/Slave devices which are in use in the industrial marketplace today. Applications for the module are found in most industries, especially the Manufacturing, Oil and Gas, Electrical Power and Food Processing.
